i have installed netbsd 6.1.5 on quad cores q6600, the system run, also i hvae installed pkgin command, Code:
dct-ulyss# pkgin install gnome gnome is not available on the repository calculating dependencies... done. nothing to do. dct-ulyss# Quote:
So the distribution 6.1.5 run with 6.1.4 packages ? Regards Philippe |

To my understanding , 6.1.5 binary packages are built on latest stable pkgsrc , which is 6.0_2014Q3
http://pkgsrc.org/ |

gnome is more complete here :
http://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/pkgsrc/pac..._2014Q3/gnome/ so you may change your PKG_PATH ----- EDIT : Having just installed NetBSD i386 then gnome-desktop and -session resulted in a 'lame' but still usable barebone desktop.

Perhaps a different mirror?
Code:
http://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/pkgsrc/packages/NetBSD/i386/6.0_2014Q3/All/ If you installed amd64 you might try. Code:
http://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/pkgsrc/packages/NetBSD/amd64/6.0_2014Q3/All/ |

Hi Philipe and sorry for my being stupidly off-topic as you were asking for gnome3 then I suggest you opt for another BSD variant* ... otherwise you may choose kde on NetBSD which works fine
*OpenBSD for instance offers a more straightforward and easy install http://undeadly.org/cgi?action=artic...20140219085851 |

I don't use kde, but it looks to me like startkde is supposed to go into your .xinitrc, to be started with startx command.
(Also, xfce4 is another alternative for desktop such as gnome. I seem to recall that startxfce4 does work from commandline, though I could be wrong.) |
