You get gnumeric and AbiWord and a bunch of other things. In fact, if you're looking for an X11 "office suite", it's a pretty fair start. Side note: it is possible to have linux-mozilla installed at the same time as native Mozilla. You can't really run them both at the same time, but if you want a good flash player, install linux-mozilla and linux-flashplayer. By making symlinks to the linux version's plugins directory, you can get it to use acroread5 and the Java plugin for Linux. Weird note: for a Java test, I've used that crystallized piece of evil known as Diamond Mine in Yahoo's Games section. It says right on it that it's not compatible with Linux, and in fact linux-mozilla can't run it. However, the *native* Java/Mozilla combination runs it great! -Warren Block * Rapid City, South Dakota USA To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
