I am pretty sure chrome has to be installed into a jail that already has 
xorg and a desktop installed in it. IE chrome does not run from the 
command line. Since you have xorg and your desktop installed on the host 
that is where you should have installed chrome.

As a side note. This post has nothing to do with the ports system. That 
is why you are getting no other replies. You should have posted to the 
questions list. If you need more help repost your question to the
