ok installing NIC is not a big deal in BSD because most of them are recongnized aoutomatically on install. You should probably check out the compatibility list on www.freebsd.org . if you need a tutoirial on how to install a dsl connection with BSD to go daemonnews.org . last i remember they had a good one. I used it and it worked. If you are looking for some tutorials on how to use BSD the handbook is the best place to start. (http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/ ) well. that is all for now. i hope that was helpfull. --- zerohero <zerohero@dreadnaught.net> wrote: > First of all, I'm wondering about using X Windows > with FreeBSD on my computer with a Geforce 256-based > video card.
