Yo;
Linux user here that just installed FreeBSD 5.3 on an old 566MHz Celeron
system. With my relatively small *NIX experience (Windows/Mac user until not
to long ago) I've been able to feel quite at home with FreeBSD. X configured
itself all but perfectly (More than I can say for the various Linux distros
I've tried... they don't like my monitor it seems), and I feel right at home
on KDE. I installed FreeBSD on a testbed server here, and may soon be
switching my Mandrake Linux 9.2 server to FreeBSD (Either that or Debian...
depends on how well I can get things like XSP to work)
Anyway, to buisness. It seems that I'm using an invalid mouse driver or
something with X, because when I move the mouse it keeps jumping to the left
side of the screen. Very annoying.
While I'm at it... would there be a package management tool similar to
ipkg/rpmi/apt-get/yum or whatever? I assume so.. but what is it called?
Thanx,
SigmaX
