I suggest you to drop KDE and to use GNOME. I am a developer and i tried to begin KDE programming on BSD, but there are too many bugs in KDE 2 and it is slow as hell (this is no BSD problem, itīs a KDE problem). Gnome is the better choice. The old days of a strange-looking Gnome Gui is over and everything looks well. I have dropped KDE some days ago and I will not use it anymore. There are too less cvs mirrors, i have no real way to download bugfixes, always the probs with the lame environment variables for QT and so on. No more again. Gnome rules, I want a clear design and a fast + bugfree environment. -- Best regards, Boris mailto:koester@x-itec.de To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
