> Hi, > I was wondering about the possibility of FreeBSD to provide an official > supported graphical environment. UNIX (so FreeBSD) never had "standard graphical environment" or "graphical environment" at all. Xorg is standard in FreeBSD and most unices for graphics hardware support. There are thousands and more programs available that uses Xorg, including tens of "graphical environments", and everyone is free to select any of them if needed. Or none of them if not needed. Is it that bad to allow people control their computer and willingly choose what to use?
