well, the part i didnt mention before, was the method behind the madness.  its 
actually a jail-host, with 3 jails running. my intention, is to keep the 
latest of kde, gnome, and xfce built on each, and just remotely attach to (or 
forward) its x session from my main workstation.  i vision it basically 
working just like when i sit down to my workstation, and type 'startx'.

cheers,
