freebsd-questions:

I have a Dell Inspiron E1505 laptop:

$ egrep '(Intel.R. Core)|(real memory)' /var/run/dmesg.boot
CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 CPU         T7400  @ 2.16GHz (2163.82-MHz 
K8-class CPU)
real memory  = 2147483648 (2048 MB)

(Note that the CPU is a upgrade to obtain Intel® 64 architecture; is it 
above Dell original specifications but "works".)


I have installed the following packages:

xorg
lumina


When I 'startx', the TWM window manager starts successfully (type 'exit' 
in the 'login' window to get out).


What I 'start-lumina-desktop', the screen flashes momentarily, and then 
I am returned to the console:

$ start-lumina-desktop
No X11 session detected: Lumina will try to start one...
