Glad I could help. I'd be curious to see the results of the testsuite from
the bootstrap build if you do one.
Well, I started compiling things, all nice, started to compile Xorg 7.1 and it failed to compile; in a fit of anger I reinstalled FreeBSD - it starts to be disheartening when trying to get something to work can be this painful; when I move from a situation of cd /usr/ports/foobah and just go make install, to a situaton where everything Studio 11 touches turns to shyte (doesn't compile), or the paths haven't been up correctly, it does become depressing.
I don't mind the occasional thing not working, but when almost *EVERYTHING* requires intensive TLC, it just gets beyond a joke.
Like I said, Solaris is great on the server, but it has a long-long-long way to go for the desktop. Maybe the next version, 10.1 (or what ever) will be more ready for general desktop use.
