Greetings,
I replaced mobo/cpu/ram today and found the onboard nic not fully

system upgrade to see if the new hardware would get recognized.

If I write a document about how to do something with FreeBSD, is there
a good place to post it, or a link to it?
Something like "how to edit a video in FreeBSD", not official documentation.
I usually have to google things to find them, and often find the
answer on stackoverflow or howtoforge. So
I wanted to watch some videos about FreeBSD, so I went to Youtube and
searched on "FreeBSD". Then I sorted by "Date Uploaded", and almost
all the videos uploaded recently are about hacking MSN. I went to the
people's profiles, and they had no videos available. I am guessing
that people are creat

Hello fellow BSDophiles,
The chromium port is trying my patience. I'm not using it now, because of
its unpatched vulnerabilities. Buit I'm keeping it installed, so I'll be
