In a nutshell, how can I obtain a "readable" ar= ticle or tutorial starting fron those files? 2) Trying to solve a problem with my touchpad mouse I had to add hw.psm.f= lags=3D"0x100" into /boot/loader.conf. I tried hard googling to find a complete explanat= ion on those commands that I understand prevent from rebuilding kernels with= specific options, but I only met fragmentary stuff not a complete view on= the subject. Have you anything to suggest? Vittorio
