| 
| Hi,
| I have release 4.5 installed with kde-2.2.2.
| Is there a way to install KDE3 and the latest version of X  without
| switching to the 4.6 release ? I have only a little experience without
| ports ( one at a time), not for 
| exemple installing several packages on once withe the ports. The
| handbook refers only to install 1 package by switching to the 
| package-port and a 'make' -  'make install' .
| Thanks for your help.
