Do you know the FreeBSD laptop compatibility list?

To find out which shell

lars$ echo $SHELL

If it is csh open .cshrc in lars home directory and put 'set autolist' 
just below
# An interactive shell -- set some stuff up

If it is not csh and you would like it to be you can use chpass to 
change the shell for user lars.
