Good, we need more reports for 2.20.

All we can do are to add messages in the /usr/ports/UPDATING and praying  
for any users that will reading it.. :-)

I have no idea.

I guess so, it looks like not there is no one in GNOME team that have any  
interest to poke around with it.

I don't know much about monitor features in GNOME, but just wondering if  
you have gnome_enable="YES" in your /etc/rc.conf? To make sure you have  
everything run. Is there any error in the ~/.xsession-errors (if you use  
GDM)?
