| Have you looked at the Handbook? It pretty much covers what you need to | know to get working. Also, freebsd-questions@ would be a better email | list (rather than -hackers, which is for hacking on FreeBSD code, etc).
I did read through the handbook, but I see I missed a couple of sections in it. I missed freebsd-questions on the list.. I was looking for something like freebsd-desktop :-D I am only subscribed to hackers and a couple of others to keep tabs on servers stuff. | Better? Depends of course. I (as do many others) use FreeBSD on my | desktop and laptop, and feel no need to use anything else really. Okay, good to hear. I love FreeBSD - I dumped Linux redhat a couple of years ago and moved all of our servers over to FreeBSD and just love it. I really want to be able to make FreeBSD my desktop and it seems like i should be able to get it up and running and configured like SUSE or Redhat or Xandros or something along those lines with a little work. | Not sure what you want here, but if you aren't willing to change some | apps, then you shouldn't switch. FreeBSD/linux/etc are not Windows, so | you can't expect them to be Windows. If you are willing to make a | change of email readers (try Thunderbird, Mozilla, etc, etc) and a few | other programs, you'd be fine. I have a drive tray on my machine, so I was going to keep XP around on another drive and pop that in to access a shared drive D maybe. I read about a product called codeweaver that looks pretty good - but I'm not sure if it will work on BSD Thanks again.
