You can check to see if it is loaded by running: $ kldstat If it's loaded, then you should see a line with "linux.ko". If you do not see that line, run the following as root: # kldload linux To enable the Linux Compatibility support upon start-up, add the following line to /etc/rc.conf: linux_enable="YES" With the Linux kernel module loaded, try to run acroread5 again. -- Linh Pham lplist@closedsrc.org Webmaster and FreeBSD Geek http://closedsrc.org closedsrc.org Every solution breeds new problems To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
