This is the usual 'customer experience' since many people use FreeBSD as a desktop OS as well as a server. Great job. Mostly what I have an issue with is KDE or Gnome related. I have to review the Fonts/Fontserver to make sure no old issues still exist! ~Ken ----- Original Message ----- From: "Gunnar Flygt" To: "FreeBSD Stable" Sent: Thursday, March 06, 2003 8:29 AM Subject: Re: XFree86 4.3.0 > On Thu, Mar 06, 2003 at 10:32:12AM +0100, Gunnar Flygt wrote: > > I just want to report one more good thing.
