Hello, I had bought 4.1 release and just upgraded to 4.1.1 last night after downloading the ISO. I decided to try to install KDE-1.94 beta. pkg_add kde_1.94.tgz told me the other packages I would need. I ftp'd all those. I tried again and got numerous errors about needing XFree86-3.3.6_2. I had 3.3.5 apparently installed so I used /stand/sysinstall to upgrade to 3.3.6 off the 4.1.1 release cd. I got the X server working. trying pkg_add kde_1.94.tgz again gives more errors: pkg_add: could not find package XFree86-3.3.6_2 ! pkg_add: autoload of dependency `/usr/home/tim/Mesa-3.2.1_1.tgz' failed! and numerous more like it. Of course it can't find the package. I couldn't either! :) I guess I find it strange that there is a package available for all sorts of oddities (and for XFree4.1something) but not for 3.3.6_2. Is there one coming soon and that is why kde-1.94 expects a package? Anyway, could anybody show me a work around or a way to get 1.94 installed? Or can show me what I did wrong? I'm pretty much a moron with make but I really like how slick the package system really is. Everything else I have tried has installed just great.
