This makes me want to switch to Ubuntu for the Desktop.  I have two 
FreeBSD servers and one desktop.  FreeBSD is Awesome for a server 
platform, but constant complications such as these make it a total pain 
to run as a desktop.  I'm sure looking forward to the day when FreeBSD 
is a little more refined in the desktop area.  Ubuntu is awesome, but I 
don't particularly care for Linux either.  FreeBSD packaging is the best 
I have seen on any platform.  Maybe some day all of the wonderful 
refinements that Ubuntu has made can be transfered over to a workable 
FreeBSD desktop configuration.

OK, I'm done with my soapbox
