I went to Linux Slackware and was sadly = dissapointed because of it's "incompleteness" compared to FreeBSD. Now I'm wondering, can I run Linux applications on FreeBSD such as X = applications? I guess I'd like to get the latest version of Netscape = running on FreeBSD, as well as a Linux version of Snes9x (if possible) Thanks guys Mike ------=_NextPart_000_0009_01C04B71.4564DE80 Content-Type: text/html; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <HTML><HEAD> <META http-equiv=3DContent-Type content=3D"text/html; = charset=3Diso-8859-1"> <META content=3D"MSHTML 5.50.4207.2601" name=3DGENERATOR> <STYLE></STYLE> </HEAD> <BODY bgColor=3D#ffffff> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2>Hey guys,</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2>Anyways, I was wondering about = FreeBSD's Linux=20 emulation capabilities.
