Re: GNOME 3 and MATE
Wow!! I did not switched to gnome3 even on laptop linux because of a lot of new things that are uncompatible with gnome2, indeed, I have built a gnome2 enviroment for linux (archlinux) running on the latest kernel (3.9.10). works like a charm. Now the list points me to the Mate desktop, that is just wat I was waiting for,... Even with gnome2.32 I have not found an application that does not runs on the 2.32 version, Congratulations to the Mate team... I will build a FreeBSD distribution based on Mate this week...

GNOME 3
Is there any ETA on getting GNOME 3 into FreeBSD ports? I was looking at https://www.freebsd.org/gnome/docs/develfaq.html Is all the work really going into 2.90, or is this page outdated? I'd really like to try GNOME 3, especially since even the OpenBSD guys have it right now. ___ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-ports-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

It would be good to keep gnome2 going on FreeBSD at least until FreeBSD has a well working mate. ___ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-ports-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
Re: GNOME 3
I think gnome2 will be replace by Mate which is far more better and less buggy. I am running mate 1.6 right now on FreeBSD it work well and fast. https://github.com/jlmess77/mate-ports#mate-ports-for-freebsd On Sun, Jun 9, 2013 at 10:20 PM, Stephen Montgomery-Smith step...@missouri.edu wrote: On 06/09/2013 06:33 PM, Kenta Suzumoto wrote: Is there any ETA on getting GNOME 3 into FreeBSD ports?
