I use my computer for my engineering calculations, surfing the net and

What do you do with ham radio on freebsd? I haven't looked into it

stuff like AX.25
Yes, the most disapointing thing is that there is not AX.25 stuff. For

problem that prevents me to switch to FreeBSD is that SVGALIB do not
work on my nvidia TNT 2 video card. It segfaults, I have submitted a bug
report but no response at the moment. I need it for Linrad to work,
Linrad is an audio processing software very useful for amateur
