Note: virgin means there was _never_ a previous installtion of gnome2 on my machine, since I find gnome much too bloated to be useful. Anyway, this leads me to conclude that there's a remnant of some gnome2 dependency on your machine which is causing all the problems. I recommend a radical cure: 1) delete /usr/X11R6 2) delete /usr/local 3) delete /var/db/pkg/* 4) delete /var/db/ports/* 5) do a fresh install of gnome2 for Ernst Winter: I also installed AbiWord with no problem. I suspect you have similar trash on your system. --- Gary Jennejohn / garyjATjennejohnDOTorg gjATfreebsdDOTorg garyjATdenxDOTde
