GNOME 2.5.0 Available For FreeBSD

Dan writes "FreeBSD's Joe Marcus Clarke announces that GNOME 2.5.0 desktop, the "Obviously you're not a golfer" release, is now available for FreeBSD. You can check out this release from the MarcusCom CVS repository. Be sure to get the latest copy of the "marcusmerge" script while you're there to help with the upgrade. Thanks to FreeBSD GNOME users, there is also a man page to go with this script. NOTE: this is a developers release, and bugs will exist. If you're not into bug-hunting, you should probably steer clear until 2.6.0 is released."

  2. Yoda doll is for Linux users by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    Why troll the BSD section with tales of Yoda dolls? Everyone knows that Linux users are masters at greased Yoda doll insertion. Tux is the result after trimming Yoda's ears off so that Lunix people don't rip themselves a new A.
