Hi Gert,

What it tells me is this from your previous post:

Is this a good or a bad idea to delete all off this ?

portmanager -sl

And it tells me that you did remove them. If you hadn't removed them, 
you wouldn't be getting this error. Put them back.

Now, I have a question for you. What are you doing with xorg-6.7 stuff 
one your system? Why haven't you upgraded to 6.8?

I'm not totally useless,
I can be used as a bad example.
Besides, I have a really great Airedale.
