Does GNOME work under FreeBSD-Alpha?  I know that a few things need to
be done to get it to compile and install (i.e., remove the battery
applet from the gnomecore build, and remove gnumeric and gtop from the
gnome build), but even after everything else "successfully" installs,
when I try and run gnome-session from .xinitrx or .xsession with startx,
it takes a loooooooooong tiiiiiiiime to start up.  The only clues I have
as to problems are that I get an error about my locale not being
supported in .xsession-errors (and every time I type anything in ETerm),
and gnome-smproxy seems to core-dump...

Also, is anyone working on a port of gdm (the GNOME desktop/login
manager)?
