Andrew,

IIRC, I installed BSD from the CD, I first installed bash, XFree86-4,
cvsup-without-gui, and then cvsupped my stable-supfile, then did a make
world, then updated my ports tree. I see all the mails flying back and
forth, I wasn't sure if these patches/fixes were being added to the ports
tree or if they were just hanging out there, so to speak. Sorry about that,
my bad.

I did a uname and I am running 4.5 STABLE, now, a buddy of mine is running
4.6 PRERELEASE, hmmm, maybe there is something I have missed in my supfiles.

kdemultimedia3, I have not tried to build kde3 yet, I have been just
watching the gnome emails, waiting to see if ports, etc. are getting
updated. I would then try to build and give the thumbs up/down, as it were.

I saw a couple emails from you about kde3 builds, did you ever get that
working on alpha?

I assume you're talking about the ports tree that installed with 4.5?
Things have been updated quite a bit since then.  The people here are
talking about fixing alpha related problems so that alpha
ports/packages support in 4.6 is not in such bad shape as you found it
to be in for 4.5.

Speaking of ports.. I've got a patch which I think will get
kdemultimedia3 building...
