I think I read all possible howtos, tutorials and faqs online before installing Gnome 2, for either FreeBSD or Linux users (which I'm not), even those that suggest building everything manually from scratch without ports, packages whatever. This was making me think since the installation, but guess what, I was installing all this stuff from Gnome 1.4 first, and forgot to uninstall the core before going for Gnome 2, but though G2 installed without problem and took off. And I noticed it some time later, and what's the hell? But it kept running without issues for few months until my last solved problem with corrupted config and now. I know it's weird, but I has thought, if it works, let it work.
