well, that's what i did at first. i tried installing it from ports, but that needed gio-fam-backend which in turn needed glib-2.16.3. i didn't want to upgrade my glib (since i didn't know how long that takes and if i should upgrade all that depends on it or not). so i went with packages, but that brings all sort of extra crap with it which i don't want (i had explained all these in my first post). is there anyway to remove the gnome ports and disable gconfd and gnome-pty-helper from running when i startx? thanks :) On Mon, May 12, 2008 at 7:05 AM, Adam K Kirchhoff <adamk@voicenet.com> wrote: > > Did you try running 'make config' in /usr/ports/x11-wm/compiz-fusion to > disable the gconf backend?
