[snip]
If you want to install the latest version of gnome, you should cvsup the
ports tree (ports-all), then cd into the directory for the gnome
meta-port (it builds gnome and alot of associated apps) and build it,
like so:

# cd /usr/ports/x11/gnome2
# make install clean

Go away on a vacation for the holidays, and when you get back, you
_should_ have gnome built and installed, along with alot of goodies.

Make sure you set BATCH=3Dyes or when you get home you will have a very
annoying configuration menu on your screen asking you what you want to
install.


Good luck,
Tom
