I have this same setup (plus xfce4/fvwm2) and have no problems. Been doing it for a while via both ports and packages and they work like a charm. i'd suggest using packages, unless you have time to build everything from scratch. so yea, i can happily report no issues going this route. -pete -- ~~o0OO0o~~ Pete Wright www.nycbug.org NYC's *BSD User Group _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
