Any ideas? I'd like to take a swing at compiling KDE on it.

XFree86, from the ports tree (and the dfports tree) will build just fine. KDE and Gnome, however, both fail to build at this time.

I disagree... the regular ports tree XFree86 failed on my box. but I was building the server.
You can build X if you have the dfports installed.


I have dfports. I don't see an X server anywhere in there. Is it just the libs and I will have to display elsewhere? If so I can do that.

Well then, maybe you should just try to build it straight from the FreeBSD
ports tree. The reason the build dies is because of a linker path search fails.
If you'll look back through the news-group I gave a script file showing how to
quickly hack around and fix the build problem.
