Have you actually installed KDE and/or Gnome? I don't see that step
included in what you say you have done.
If you have not you will of course need to do that before you can

Hello, list!
I'm going to buy a netbook soon, so a question is which one.
The choice is between
1) Samsung N127
2) ASUS Eee PC 900AX

Which one is the best for running FreeBSD?
"The best" mainly is for opensource (e.g. not ndis) & stable wireless

I realize this is not a specific FreeBSD question, but a lot of

a reverse SSL proxy in a DMZ. A reverse proxy for http is simple, but
I'm finding it challenging understanding all that needs to take place
for apache 2.
On a 64-bit system, if you build a binary with the -m32 flag, it
should run on both i386 and x86-64 systems. A binary built with -m64
will only run on x86-64. Does that help?

Actually, -m32 on amd64 won't generate usable binaries, since

this relates to what i found in ,

And it's not an answer to this question:
6.2 to 7.3 is which one of the folowing:

or
- 6.2->7.3 directly?
