[Midnightbsd-users] Graphical interface problem

[Lucas Holt]

If you try to start mlogind manually, does it show any errors?  
service mlogind start

You can check /var/log/messages and /var/log/Xorg.log.

Depending on the version, you could try mport install slim or better yet, use mports and install mlogind which is the newer customized slim for MidnightBSD.  If you choose this route, you need to add mlogind_enable=“YES” to /etc/rc.conf and reboot or type service mlogind start
