Hi everybody, thanks to Brian T.Schellenberger <bts@babbleon.org>. He has given me the advice to edit the /boot/loader.conf with an additional line : snd_ess_load="YES". And now my ESS 1869 sound card is playing fine tunes (device pcm & sbc). It would be better, if all the special entries of loading a device permanently in /boot/loader.conf is listed in the handbook to save time in configuring the system for newbies. To install xmcd I need XFree86-3.3.6.10, but it failed. Pkg_add XFree86-3.3.6.10 stopped and sais: XFree86 already installed. How do I uninstall XFree68-3.3.6.9 if there is only listed XFree68-3.3.6 with pkg_info? What is better, to install applications from cdrom as packages or as ports? Are there any difference? Is is true to search the corresponding homepage for knowing the starting command of all the applications. About half of them don't run with their name, eg. amphetamine-0.8.9. Hope the rest I will find in the handbook, faqs, or searching with google.
