Running Sweet Home 3D on FreeBSD
Hello, my name is Matthias and I am a happy Sweet Home 3D user :-) We are currently planning our new home and this great program helped a lot to get a actual impression how it would look like. So at first, thanks for this nice piece of software!

Since I am a happy FreeBSD user too, I wanted to use it on my favourite OS. Thats why I started to investigate some issues I had on this plan. Most of the trouble was related to the Java 3D native libs and a conflict with FreeBSDs Linux emulation. At the end I created a native FreeBSD port which is currently waiting for beeing committed to the ports tree.

For those of you who may be interested, I want to share my findings:

http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=ports/171760 (PR containing shar archive of FreeBSD port)

I'm also looking forward for feedback. The port is the first version and I am sure there is some potential for optimization.

Kind regards,
Matthias
