    I just updated from ports to 4.4.0 from 4.3.99.2, my icons for
evolution are still broke/missing.  I cannot get the weather plugin to
work.
    I am still running 6.1 with xfce 4.2 at work, weather plugin works &
evolution icons are there.  I will wait to update at work. :-)

As far as your browser problem, I had the same problem with evolution.
Saving an attachment would crash it.  Check the FreeBSD Gnome list,
there was posts about the Firefox crashing when saving files.
