Well, I can understand that especially with all the "this time you need QT release x.y.z for a change" that kept popping up when kde2 was still in beta. From what I've gathered though it would be easier coding for qt/kde then it is for gtk/gnome but I have no experience with that myself. Still, as an environment to work with rather than work on (as I do), admittedly with 256megs of ram, I feel its all could ask for at this time. Sure I'm biased like everyone else :-) but I think the konqueror browser is the most important improvement that kde has for the end user (ok if/when working properly). It's so much nicer than netscape. I don't have random crashes or anything like that with kde, but sure it's not perfect (aRTS anyone?) and it probably will never be. But I do think that it's a good thing that the kde folks did a rewrite and really made everything modularized much like windows is (meant to). People will disagree about this. In fact, I believe this is where the whole kde/gnome wars bog down to on any level from user experience up to developers interests/likings. I hope I wont get flamed for having discussions in a Q & A mailinglist... Grtz, Danny To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
