As well as turning off the beastie, is there a way to suppress all the dmesg and other output, so that the first thing to appear is the KDM or GDM login screen? When I show FreeBSD to people who have only seen Windows before, their first reaction is how geeky all that text looks as it rolls by. They are turned off before I even get to the login screen. Most current Linuxes are 'better' in this respect. I realise it may make it harder to debug failed startups... _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
