Following what is outlined here, http://www.freebsd.org/gnome/docs/faq2.html#q1 , I typed pkg_add -r gnome2, but this installed gnome 2.4 files, and left my machine in a non usable state (ie, new applications requiring old libraries). Nuked the system, a new fresh install, try a different approach. setenv PACKAGESITE "http://www.marcuscom.com/tb/packages/5.2.1-GNOME-2.6/" pkg_add -r gnome2-2.6.0 (didn't work at all without the version number) libgnomecanvas is not installed, so gnome apps don't work. Hopefully its an easy fix somewhere in dependencies, but I seem to have followed all the correct steps from everything that I've read, and have gotten no where.
