Toss it up, baby! Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-chat@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org I just installed a 2.2.5 system last night, and I have to say that everything from the installation to rebuilding the kernel was butter smooth. It's been a while since I've installed a FreeBSD system, but the Core Team must've been smoking Virginia Slims because they've come a long way, baby! I was feeling like my 133 MHz Pentium was on it's last leg every time Windows NT choked the life out of it and made it crawl to service. Of all the OSes I run, FreeBSD performance is running rings around everything else on the block! And I have to thank XSuSE for their cutting-edge X drivers which have given me back my X display. Hooray! I'll be raising the roof on this one for a while, but I just had to give a shout to say good work to everybody even remotely involved in this Project. Well, that's all for the congratulations. Tomorrow I go back to my campaign to convince Jordan that all the games should be be installed with the basic kernel system. :-) K.S. PS -- Is there any effort underway to get XSuSE's drivers officially supported on FreeBSD, or will that happen when they're officially brought into XFree86? The ones I've used so far are really good.
