I think you have somethings not fully upgraded to have some of those =20 problems. I hear it is kind of a comman problem with big ports like =20 kde for some of the dependancies not to be built. Portmanager is a new =20 program I have found and like it. It is not as full featured as =20 portupgrade, but it is nice. Install it, it is a very quick compile, =20 less than a min. Then run "portmanager -s | grep OLD" as root. It =20 will tell you everything that is out of date, be sure to cvsup ports =20 and "cd /usr/ports && make fetchindex" first. Did you rebuild x after you update to 5.3? You will need to. Try =20 portupgrade -fRr xorg. If you want to optimize you programs have a look at /etc/make.conf. =20 You can check out /usr/share/example/make.conf first. The p pro stands =20 for pentium pro. It is very old, pre pII. It is also a default =20 setting to optimise for that can help most modern x86 processors. If =20 you want to set some make options here is mine, note you may need to =20 change the processor type.
