God luck, though. I've already done port the minimum(core) part of Gnome and now release unofficialy. And it also some other unofficial ports... http://www.geocities.co.jp/SiliconValley-PaloAlto/4384/gnome-0.13-980521.tar.gz (mico 2.0.5 is http://www.geocities.co.jp/SiliconValley-PaloAlto/4384/mico-2.0.5.tar.gz) Gnome changes and is updated daily, but you may compile with that. I disabled only modem related applet and at least the panel, the core of Gnome work. There must be more work to do the Gnome port for FreeBSD. Also, I think it need some FreeBSD-Gnome servers to fetch Gnome cvs snapshots and compile those on FreeBSD every day. -------------- Yukihiro Nakai To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
