Hi Steve,
this is in reply to this email and a later one where u ask why it doesn't work. 

In short, xorg 7.2 only came out a few months ago - non existing in 4.8. Packages are,AFAIK, only created and uploaded to ftp*.*.freebsd.org for mantained versions of the OS - 4.8 is way out of date.

I wonder why Pair wont give you root access if this is a 'virtual server' == jail .
