Has anyone successfully installed Enl wm (and therefore all
the stuff that it needs to get that far)? I have been fighting with
this thing passivly for about 2 weeks now with no luck, and was just
wondering if there was something special that needed to be done on a
FreeBSD machine (outside of the fact that the INSTALL scripts don;t
work and you need to compile them manually).
Any tips here would be great.

I installed E with no problems at all abt 3 weeks ago. I'm using FreeBSD
2.2.1, Did you get the Imlib set of libraries from the enlightenment page?
The URL is below

Ps: I installed E and uninstalled it a day later. It seems to slow down
my machine no end. Prefer Afterstep anyday. It's cleaner and leaner and
meaner... :)

People really need to use the ports collection more for this kind of
thing - it's a very simple 3 step process with ports:

Port: imlib-0.4
Path: /usr/ports/graphics/imlib
Info: a graphic library for enlightenment package

Index: graphics
B-deps: gmake-3.75
R-deps:

Port: enlightenment-0.9
Path: /usr/ports/x11/enlightenment
Info: a very artistic X window manager.

Index: x11
B-deps: gmake-3.75 imlib-0.4
R-deps: imlib-0.4 jpeg-6a

.. off we go, no problems at all, and build/install ..

There's a search engine in the ports collection?!?! *NOW* someone tells
me!

Yeah... but, what's it needed for. You can just go to
/usr/ports/x11/enlightenment and type make all install and it'll go
and compile all of the dependencies...

Of course there's a search engine in the ports collection. Everything is
in the ports collection. ;-)

Yeah, but you needed to *find* it there, first. Sure, maybe you knew
that enlightenment was in the x11 category because of what you knew
about the port itself. But let's say I told you to suddenly go find me
the spim port - what would be the fastest way of doing that? ;-)

Even Hoffa, the Easter Bunny, and Santa Claus? =)

I love ports. It made my life so much easier. Who came up with the idea?
I owe him beer.

Somewhere, yes. I may have to refine the search tool. ;)

Sorry, I don't drink but I appreciate the sentiment. ;)

Bummer. Well, if you're ever in *ia (and my there's a lot of us
FreeBSD folks in *ia), I'll snag you a 12 pack of your choice of
sodas. You do drink soda's right? =)

echo /usr/ports/*/spim ???

OK, so I picked a bad example - the port's name is not *always* also its
directory name. ;-)
