Hi Guys & Gals:
Got the "Absolute FreeBSD" book and installed FreeBSD 13.0 last
night. Everything went fine untill I installed and ran X, in my user
account. My apps are horizontally stretched. Xclock is pulled into an
ellipse. I ran:
# Xorg -configure
and then
# X -config /root/xorg.conf.new
and X wouldn't run. I decided to look for the existing xorg.conf and
did:
# find / -type f -name "xorg.conf" -print
and nothing came back! I then looked in
/usr/local/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/
and it was empty! How can X run without an xorg.conf?
X runs OK except for the distortion. The only error I get upon
terminating TWM is:
waiting for X server to shut dwon xterm: fatal IO error 35 (Resource
temporarily unavailable) or KillClient on X Server ":0"
xinit: unexpected signal 2
Any suggestions as to what I am doing wrong here?

Kind regards,
Jonathan
