In both my VM's (work and home) that have netbsd .. they both have
/usr/X11R6/bin and /usr/X11R7/bin .. and I just verified they indeed are
distinct directories (not symlinks)

Oddly enough, Project Center and Gorm magically started to work on the work
VM of netbsd yesterday.. I have no clue why either.. i didn't touch
it...though my home one is still having the same issue in this thread.

When i get home I'll give my home one a whirl and see if i can check out the
PATH and configure stuff

Thanks!
