Prerequisites:
A FreeBSD system.
A stable internet connection
You must be a member of the wheel or video group and be logged in as ‘root’ via the 'su' command.

Step-by-Step Guide:
Update your system:
$ pkg update && pkg upgrade |
Install Xorg-minimal and Budgie:
$ pkg install -y xorg-minimal budgie |
Mount /proc:
Open the /etc/fstab file using the default FreeBSD text editor Easy Editor (ee):
ee /etc/fstab |
Add the following line to the end of the file:
proc /proc procfs rw 0 0 |
Save the file and exit the editor.
Enable dbus-service and lightdm:
Set dbus_enable=YES and lightdm_enable=YES in /etc/rc.conf:
$ sysrc dbus_enable=YES lightdm_enable=YES |
Reboot:
$ reboot |
After rebooting, you should be greeted by the LightDM login screen.
