More of a general gripe thatn a question, Why are most of the ports for BSD soooo poorly documented. This is somethig i was very suprised at. I am not looking in the right places? For example, try and find some page on the web that will tell what the latest version of gnome fifth toe, (or power tools or whatever) is and what aditional packages it will install. Its impossible, because it's not documented. And it's not just gnome alot of the open source UNIX/GNU Linux applications websites are poorly maintained and info is quite often seriously outdated. Feel free to bitch at me if i'm wrong here, but as a relatively new user this has been my biggest problem. Not the techincal side. ___________________________________________________________ Danny Browne _________________________________________________________________ Sign up for eircom broadband now and get a free two month trial.* Phone 1850 73 00 73 or visit http://home.eircom.net/broadbandoffer
