Hello, For some years now I own this netbook EeePC 900. It was running a two years old 8-CURRENT and some days ago I decided to install it from scratch with 10-CURRENT (SVN r226986). I prepared the r226986 in some other machine and compiled the /usr/ports I'm used to use, put all this together on a bootable USB key, booted the EeePC with this, mounted its OB SSD as /mnt and installed over the system the usual way # make installworld DESTDIR=/mnt # make installkernel DESTDIR=/mnt ... ... After the EeePC came up with r226986, I installed the binary packages, created from the /usr/ports on the other machine too; and all is fine now: KDE-3.5.10 skype-2.1.0.81,1 pidgin-2.10.0 firefox-3.6.24,1 linux-f10-flashplugin-10.3r183.11 ... and a lot of more stuff (some 500 packages); even the onboard Videocam Chicony Electronics Co., Ltd. is now supported by cuse4bsd and webcamd-3.0.0.2 and works nicely in Skype (a big thanks to HPS for his great work on this!) snd_hda(4) detects nicely the onboard micro and speaker, as well as the pluged in headset micro/speaker; and Skype is using it via OSS; Just wanted to let you know this.
