Hi all,
Well, over the past few days I have made the transition to FreeBSD
(6.4) as the primary OS on my home computer. I am currently running
GNOME as a desktop, and it seems to be running well. Indeed, I am
using Thunderbird to write this email!
I have a couple of questions regarding the transition:
1. Does there exist a port or package, a messenger program, that is
compatible with Windoze Live Messenger? i.e. can I log in similar to
live messenger and see my contacts and collaborate with them?
Pidgin is a nice GTK program that works well with Windows Live Message
network.
2. Can I use any type of pictures for the desktop wallpaper? Where
might I find some good wallpaper depicting the FreeBSD Daemon and Logo?
Take a look at http://www.freebsd.org/art.html
3. How does one add a device to the desktop as an icon? i.e. an
external USB drive?
Take a look at http://www.freebsd.org/gnome/index.html. I'm sure it
will answer (or point you to) your Gnome related questions.
TIA,
-Grant

Thanks Richard,
A couple of more questions if anyone has the time.
1. I have been searching for a iTunes client. i.e. a player that I can
play my iTunes on. Does such a thing exist? Is there an iTunes client
that can connect to the iTunes store?
2. I want to import my Oulook express folders to Thinderbird. I know it
can be done on windows, but when I try the impirt feature (running
Thunderbord on FreeBSD), there is no option to do this. Is there a way?
-Grant
