Hi,

with reference to this

http://forums.freebsd.org/showthread.php?t=694

I have a machine which got upgraded since the FreeBSD 6.1 days to 
6.4 via the ports and never got XOrg 7.4 running because i never 
got hald and dbus properly installed.

Just by chance, I saw that both hald and dbus are not put into 
place.

After compiling the respective ports by hand, deinstalling the 
packages and reinstalling the ports, hald and dbus appeared to be 
in the proper place and working.

Since then, I have Xorg 7.4 working with hal support.
