Hello, I recently purchased a copy of the FreeBSD Toolkit v5.0. I wanted to try the version of StarOffice-3.1 that comes with the disks in the Toolkit. I understand that i need to run the linux KLD in order to achieve this. When I installed the FreeBSD operating system on my computer it asked if I wanted linux compatibility and I said yes. After installation I checked the /usr/compat/linux directory and it seemed to have quite a few directories including lib, bin, sbin... I also checked my rc.conf file and it said LINUX_ENABLE = "NO". I changed it to "YES" and rebooted. I then ran the kldstat program to see if the linux module was loaded but it didn't appear to be. I then typed the following: #linux And the system responded with "No such command". Can you please tell me what I need to do to get linux compatibility to work? I think I have done everything right. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance, Matthew Peacock To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
