   I've grabbed XFree86 3.1 and (finally) got X working with FreeBSD! Happy day!
   Thanks to everyone responsible--the new configuration stuff is really cool.

   I think I've found trouble, though. When grabbing the binary packages from
   freebsd.cdrom.com, a lot of them seem to want version 2.0 of the various
   shared libraries, and the version shipped with XFree86 3.1 are 6.0.

We'll be updating a lot of these in the near future..
