Hey guys,

Anyways, I was wondering about = FreeBSD's Linux=20 emulation capabilities. I used to use FreeBSD until

I found out that new releases of = various=20 applications (ie Netscape, Snes9x) favoured Linux and = Windows

over all the other OS's, and plus the = fact that I=20 couldn't get Netscape working on FreeBSD rel4.1.1. I went to Linux = Slackware and was sadly dissapointed because of it's "incompleteness" = compared=20 to FreeBSD.

Now I'm wondering, can I run Linux = applications on=20 FreeBSD such as X applications? I guess I'd like to get the latest = version=20 of Netscape running on FreeBSD, as well as a Linux version of = Snes9x (if=20 possible)

Thanks guys

Mike
