Steps for building Lumina Desktop on FreeBSD / TrueOS:
-------------------------------
1) Install packages (all commands run as root)


Note: Once the port/package is updated, only the lumina package will need to be installed


2) Setup X (as root)
Edit /etc/rc.conf and add the following lines to it. This will enable X to be able to detect/use the keyboard and mouse:

Now restart the system with "shutdown -r now" to have those settings take effect

3) Setup how Lumina will be started (assuming you are not using a graphical login manager)
A) Log in as your user

B) Create the "~/.xinitrc" file with the following contents
[contents]
#!/bin/sh
/usr/local/bin/Lumina-DE
[/contents]

C) Make the init file executable


D) Launch X as the user (this is the only thing that will need to be done for future logins)
