Hmm, what software is reading my BIOS.... Windows does....Linux DOES! OMG I see conspiracy!/me is pressing power button and runs away.... AAARRRRGH!!! HELPPP!!!
Thank you from my hearth! I appreciate your hard work and you make me happy for fscing your customers and make my wallet full of good ol' cash./me goes back to develop BSD licensed software...
Yes, you can do it in 10 minutes and almost everything is autoconfigured out of the box. OpenOffice.org 2.0.3. installation with PBI installer took 1 minute. Multimedia video codecs- 30 seconds. Wifi set up for WPA encryption is no brainer- less than minute- with one single command- if you know what you are doing. Then you can install mooooore than 15000 applications from ports- similar to gentoo installation method "emerge"- no dependency hell or whatsoever.
Enjoy.
The interaction of the GPL, MIT, and BSD licenses is well understood and works well.
Then, why I hear every f***g day news about yet another nonGPL software sacked from some GNU/Linux operating system?
It's like Holocaust or something going on. GPL "philosophy" is just disgusting- nazi mentality all the way....

Looks very similar to BSD license to me....
Next news- OMG!!11ELEVEN... XORG IS BANNED FROM DEBIAN- introducing framebuffer desktop now....
I see that more GNU/Linux users looking for something more friendly than 1000+ different linux distributions- with bazillion of incompatible package management. Modern GNU/Linux is more bloated than upcoming Microsoft Vista. Here comes into play new/old BSD. Operating systems like PC-BSD and DesktopBSD is winning hearts of GNU/Linux users with simple, logical structure and with features that is not in GNU/Linux so far. For example I show you PC-BSD PBI installer flash demo: http://raidon.eu/files/video/pbi_install.html - Self containig programs, without complicated dependencies and separated from operating system, so users can't destroy their perfectly running systems. I think that BSD is next big thing...
dead...bsd.org but I see FreeBSD live and kicking here:
Telekom Malaysia Berhad Network Strategy 5th Floor, North Wing Menara Telekom Jalan Pantai Baru 50672 Kuala Lumpur 218.111.126.29 FreeBSD Apache 4-May-2004
All the code Apple borrowed from BSDs and changed is contributed back with DarWin OS. It is also the core set of components upon which Mac OS X was developed. In July 2003 Apple released Darwin under version 2.0 of the APSL license, which the Free Software Foundation (FSF) approved as a free software license. Previous releases had taken place under an earlier version of the APSL that did not meet the FSF's definition of free software, although it met the requirements of the Open Source Definition.
I found in KDE good replacements for BLOATED gtk programs:
Mozilla Firefox - Konqueror Mozilla Thunderbird/Evolution - Kontact/Kmail Gaim - Kopete.. even have webcam support! OpenOffice - Koffice.....- K3B burner XMMS - amaroK not really comparable cos xmms is a joke, but anyway......- Quanta Plus web development.....- Scribus
If you want to upgrade your 3party ports software: Update your ports
# portsnap fetch extract
upgrade all new ports with dependencies
# portupgrade -nra
Upgrade base system and kernel:
# cvsup/usr/share/examples/cvsup/standart-supfile # cd/usr/src/sys/i386/conf # mkdir/root/kernels # cp GENERIC/root/kernels/MYKERNEL # ln -s/root/kernels/MYKERNEL # cd/usr/src # make update # only if you have source code already downloaded somet time ago # make buildworld # make buildkernel # shutdown now # mergemaster -p # make installkernel # make installworld # mergemaster # reboot
Now you have fully upgraded system with TODAYs kernel and userland.
If you want Nvidia driver fast and ready to play games in couple of seconds you have to try out PS-BSD with nvidia pbi installer from http://www.pbidir.com/search.php?str=nvidia.
Linux is simply not an Enterprise Grade OS. It is fine for small business and hobbyists that need a crappy little web server to run apache, or a DNS server, or maybe an MTA, hell it even can be your router. If you need someting Enterprise Grade you need to look at Solaris, HPUX, or Open/Free/NetBSD.
Let's face it, until Linus is purged from Linux, nobody will ever take any Linux seriously.
Install PC-BSD and you don't have to worry about your bullshit claims about "superior" hdparm and even worse ALSA (Advanced Linux Sound A**hole). I even didn't bother to explain how wrong you are... RTFM.
BSD-s got better documentation and more productive system configuration layout than Linux, that's why they have less posts in Usenet. Usenet posts show only more morons, who can't RTFM and have nothing to do...
The FreeBSD Foundation has a license with Sun Microsystems to distribute FreeBSD binaries for the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) and Java Development Kit (JDK). These implementations have been made possible through the hard work of the FreeBSD Java team as well as through donations to the FreeBSD Foundation that supported hardware, developer costs, and legal fees.

PC-BSD kernel and userland is optimized for i686 processors starting with Intel Pentium Pro, AMD Athlon and so on. So it won't run on 386, 486, pentium processor. Nobody uses 486 or Pentium for desktop this days...

I can write an fstab by hand, if necessary, but there's no way I could do that for xorg.conf.
/root/xorg.conf.new /etc/X11/xorg.conf
# Xorg -configure
# cp
How hard is that?

No shit, I am officially moderated to troll now... :(
Next time YOU, MODERATOR read PARENT post and THINK!!!

This is good, when stupid people can't use FreeBSD IMHO.
Install from binary:
/usr/share/examples/cvsup/standart-supfile /usr/src/sys/i386/conf /root/kernels /root/kernels/MYKERNEL /root/kernels/MYKERNEL /usr/src
# pkg-add -r yourprogram

# rehash
# portinstall yourprogram
If you want to upgrade your 3party ports software:
Update your ports
# portsnap fetch extract
upgrade all new ports with dependencies
# portupgrade -nra
Upgrade base system and kernel:
# cvsup
# cd

# cp GENERIC

# cd
# make update # only if you have source code already downloaded somet time ago
# make buildworld
# make buildkernel

CORE DUMP>>>>
>a) Graphical setup
PC-BSD or DesktopBSD.
>b) Better hardware autodetection (both during install and post install)
PC-BSD or DesktopBSD.
>c) A GUI by default that is tight and looks good.
PC-BSD or DesktopBSD.
>d) A more easy to use graphical interface into the ports system.
PC-BSD PBI installer, DesktopBSD Ports manager.

Just try em out and tell me how you feel.
Install PC-BSD and you don't have to worry about your bullshit claims about "superior" hdparm and even worse ALSA (Advanced Linux Sound A**hole). I even didn't bother to explain how wrong you are... RTFM.
