Thanks for the informations ! ;-) Maybe I rebuild my machine/ports this or next weekend.

Well, without metaport it could become an interesting thing to install X. Maybe there is a readme telling whats needed as a base. If somebody should have a meta port for testing I would like to give it a try then. I didn't find instructions yet, how to best use your "beta ports" in the wiki system. Maybe I overlooked something. Can I remotely checkout somehow ? Would need a tip. I only know "remote cvs" operation.
