I am running 7.0-RC2.  I have both kde and gnome installed, but I'm wondering 
how I did it, because I'm trying to force a reinstall of gnome2 and it's 
trying to install xscreensaver-gnome, which fails because xscreensaver is 
installed, which kde wants.

I checked the ports on freebsd.org and it claims gnome2 has a dependency on 
xscreensaver-gnome2-hacks.  I update my ports daily, so I don't know why my 
gnome2 (2.20.2) still wants xscreensaver-gnome.

I like having kde and gnome selectable from kdm.

Am I doing something wrong?  I bought "Absolute FREEBSD, 2nd edition", but 
Michael chose to not tackle portupgrade.  I've been using FreeBSD since the 
first book came out (like 1.5.1 or something).  I'm still struggling with 
ports and dependencies...
