Haven't tried the lightdm command or service lightdm start command in tty yet. Do know that it's installed when looking at the station software last night though after getting into userland. What is the lightdm command for bsd? I've noticed that biggest part of doing things in the cli/tty are differ...

@ NevilleGoddard Well, decided to just boot to user land by the startx command for now until ericbsd gets the ntpdate error fixed and pushed out on an update. Ready to pick up with this printer issue where we left off at. Thanks for all the help. Figure that by just keeping at this something will cl...

ericbsd This is what I'm trying to explain about. root@son-of-venus:~ # service ntpdate restart * Stopping ntpd ...

The static IP only affects your router network, not your external IP. So if I understand well you never got to the DM login UI? if so you can run cap_mkdb /etc/login.conf maybe it will bring the dm on reboot. Ok, I did the mkdb/ect.loedgin.conf command. Rebooted.

Additional information.
I just did a startx and it did boot up to the system. I see that LO is reinstalled now. But will need to reinstall FF and TB. No biggie . At least got there. But still looking to see what a permanent fix is for the issue.

Again, any help is greatly appreciated.

Can I tag in on this? I'm having basically same issue. Was working good last night. Then while trouble shooting for the enigmail I had noticed that I had both gtk2 and gtk 3 installed referring to GIMP with the first being old and second current. So removed. Then saw that LO was gone. Reinstalled an...

I was in the software station looking at some of the stuff and noticed about the gtk2 and gtk3. both mentioned GIMP. First one said old version, second one said current version. So 'Dummy' me decided to get rid of the 'old' version. Bad, bad, bad thing to do. Noticed that my office selection had dis...

Decided to run the following commands as well to see what happens. I accepted the default bu then went to the other just to see what would happen as well. Here's both results. root@son-of-venus:~ # hp-setup -i HP Linux Imaging and Printing System (ver. 3.17.11) Printer/Fax Setup Utility ver. 9.0 Cop...
