I and a few other FreeBSD people at my current contract persuaded our boss to order Motif for FreeBSD from X Inside. (http://www.xinside.com) We got our copy today from FedEx. Motif comes on 4 floppies with an instruction sheet. The floppies contain gzipped tar files. We followed the instructions and ran tar using the recomended parameters (tar -xvzf /dev/rfd0) on each of the 4 floppies. Afterward we ran their install script. The installation took all of about 20 including the time it took us to make backup copies of the floppies. I can say that so far we are very pleased with Motif. It seems to be working out very nicely. I would recomend Motif for FreeBSD from X Inside. At US $150.00 it seems a bargin.
