I do understand there can be more problems if I don't stick to ports/packages and compile everything myself. I compiled xfree86 4.3.0 from sources as I can't find that version from my ports. My compiled x-windows works perfectly. But it seems by doing so I can no longer use ports/packages for any x applications as the ports assume xfree86 4.2.0 instead of 4.3.0. if I use those ports/packages then xfree 4.2.0 would be fetched and installed, and that is definitely not what I want.
I compiled XFree86 4.3.0 on my FreeBSD 5.1-BETA installation from the ports tree this past weekend. Is your ports tree up to date?

I normally install from the ports tree, update the ports tree via cvsup and use `portupgrade --all` to recompile all the ports that I have installed.

Many of the ports have ./configure style options that you can use on the make command line in the form of:

Code:
make all -D option_flag

or

Code:
make all option_flag=yes

The FreeBSD handbook has all the nitty gritty details.
