Powerdot class of presentations is designed to use PS tricks and can not be compiled with pdflatex or should I say you can compile but you will lose most of graphics and colors. If you want to try let me know of the mailing list and I will send you a file for you to try. By the way powerdot class is not included in the standard teTeX distribution and has never been ported to FreeBSD. That is way, I use TeXLive. On the same note teTeX port of FreeBSD doesn't contain the fonts necessary for building the package from the source(which is trivial), actually even worse it contains the older version of fonts with lots of dependencies. teTeX is dead and the efforts of the community should be directed towards porting TeXLive to FreeBSD. Best, Predrag Punosevac
