While the FreeBSD GNOME site has not been updated yet, I urge users to check out http://www.gnome.org/start/2.4/ for a list of what's new and what's broken. The only other known issues I'd like to throw in at this time are: * Evo 1.4.4 has a problem with attachments under GNOME 2.4. This will be fixed in Evo 1.4.5 due out shortly. It is also scheduled to be committed before 4.9. * gstreamer-0.6.3 doesn't play nice with rhythmbox. It is recommended you build rhtymbox with the libxine backend for now (note, rhythmbox is not part of the GNOME Desktop or the Fifth Toe). To upgrade, I recommend: portupgrade -rf -m BATCH=3Dyes atk portupgrade -R -m BATCH=3Dyes gnome2 That will get all shared libraries, too. As always, you can send email to gnome@freebsd.org with questions, or hop on IRC, and wander over to #freebsd-gnome on FreeNode. Someone there should be able to help you.
