I am used to shells only on FreeBSD and does FreeBSD have a windows=20 graphical interface like Mandrake? Cause I'm looking for a OS with=20 text commands not much grapical interface. -xachen _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ It uses command line if you like or a wide selection=20 of graphical interfaces (a large variety of window=20 managers or the Gnome or KDE "desktop environments").=20 You can boot to the command line and just stay right=20 there, even if you have a graphical interface=20 installed; conversely, even if you're in the graphical=20 interface, you can open a terminal window and use the=20 command line. Or you can exit the graphical=20 interface entirely and go back to a total command line=20 environment (without rebooting or any other fuss). In short, the answer is, just about whatever you want, and just about whenever you want it.
