Very few (if any) external software packages are documented on the website. > What now? Can you please point out where is the "official GNOME install > documentation for 5.3"? or no one uses GNOME with 5.3 on the misc list? "pkg_add gnome, *read* the various readmes, ..." The OpenBSD-specific documentation is either printed on screen at pkg_add time or installed at /usr/local/share/doc/pkg-readmes/$package (you *need* to read. pkg_add doesn't spit out information for fun). > ps.: I found that other people have problems with GNOME on 5.3, maybe it's > a bug?

I will try it with > other VM's or directly! Getting an accelerated Xorg using virtualbox is afaik not possible. If you want gnome-shell, don't use vb or a non-intel graphics card (on 5.3, that is).
