The main thing is that Gnome 2.2 and KDE 3.1.x works fine with Xfree86
v4.3.x. This is the usual 'customer experience' since many people use
FreeBSD as a desktop OS as well as a server.

Great job. Mostly what I have an issue with is KDE or Gnome related. I have
to review the Fonts/Fontserver to make sure no old issues still exist!
