I might have the opportunity to at least run the tests on FreeBSD 5.1. I =
just set up my first FreeBSD system on the weekend :)

However, it will probably have to wait until the weekend when I have =
time to actually *configure* the system - I got it to the stage of being =
able to run KDE and that was it - then I felt I'd earned my chance to =
watch my "Spirited Away" DVD :)
