    Beastie being used in a bad light...

    As if it's not possible that the site that he got it from has permission to use the image... Some people need to get it together.

    Which is your Favourite Linux?

    I see a lot of you mentioning Slack, which is the one distro I haven't tried yet. I'm now tempted to throw it in a VM and mess around with it :P.

    Adobe Flex Builder 3

    ahah, my friend on IRC has been trying to convince me to try lisp. He has a bunch of lisp stuff integrated to his emacs everything. It looks interesting, but I'm kind-of looking to do web stuff right now. I already know PHP and Perl, and have tried Ruby on Rails, but determined that it ate too...

    Adobe Flex Builder 3

    Bah you're right, maybe I should learn some of the HTML 5 neatness instead. Was just looking for something new and decent to learn. Even Perl gets boring after a while :P

    How to install PHP 5.3 on Freebsd

    Was it installed via ports? Just update your ports collection (portsnap or cvsup), and do the standard upgrading (I personally use portmaster, so do `portmaster -Bd lang/php5`. If it wasn't installed via ports, see my previous post in this thread. Edit: Ports has 5.2.11, any specific reason...

    Adobe Flex Builder 3

    Adobe has a beta Linux version of Flex Builder 3 out. Any tips on getting this working on FreeBSD (with or without Linux compat)? I haven't really tried it yet, but am also not too sure on where to start.

    Chromium

    AH! My linux-friends keep picking on me (and fBSD) because we don't have Chromium yet. Then I have to pull the ZFS card on 'em. :D. Anyway I'll be keeping an eye out for this.

    How to install PHP 5.3 on Freebsd

    As already stated deinstall whichever version you have now, and install lang/php5. For GD stuff, install lang/php5-extensions and compile it with GD. You'll probably want some of the other extensions too. Just pick whichever you want/need and compile it.

    upload file?

    Yeah just use `scp`. Chances are both machines already have ssh, and scp is very easy to use: `scp <local file> username@remote.machine:/path/on/server/` or to reverse it (grab a file from the remote server): `scp username@remote.machine:/path/on/server/file.txt ./newfilename.txt`...

    email-services

    I personally use gmail + thunderbird. Have not had any issues, and see no reason to switch.

    What you may and may not do under GPL ?

    I find this pretty interesting. I read the copyrights page, and I understand it, but sans bandwidth cost, I see no reason for the restriction. It clearly says that they don't care, if you don't get it from that particular site. So I don't understand the motive behind that restriction...

    Debian pushes development of kFreeBSD port

    Agreed... These types of projects I find a waste.. If you like BSD use BSD.. If you don't then stick with what you like. I see no point in trying to port BSD's goodies over to Linux. If you like, for example, ports, then use BSD. Same things with Gentoo/FreeBSD... just stupid, in my opinion.

    How do you say...... (words with different pronounciations)

    SQL will always be 'ess que ell' :P My cisco class teacher says "my sequel"... so annoying :| SCSI, I pronounce, 'skuzzy'.

    [AwesomeWM] Screenshots

    Mind giving up the part of your config that shows Updates in the top bar? I use awesome, that would be a pretty neat addition to my current setup :) Also, how'd you get your bar transparent? That's pretty nifty :P Heck while you're at it why don't you just paste your whole config, so I can...

    More user details

    Yeah I could see that coming in handy. Not that I use jabber - one of those protocols that I've been meaning to try out, and just haven't gotten around to yet.

    FreeBSD 7.2 local root vulnerability

    Is there something official saying it's patched? (Link?) Anyway if it officially is, glad to hear it.

    New User Home Directory

    Define 'log in'. If you `su` (or `sudo su`) to them, your working directory will not change. However if you ssh as the new user, it should drop you to their home directory. Might want to give some more information such as what you mean by 'log in'. If you mean actual console login (or SSH for...

    PHP 5.3.2 (was: php 5.3.0)

    Not what I was told when I emailed him a few months ago. He said we'd be at 5.3 in late August. He's already a month past what he said.

    FreeBSD and Ham Radio

    I know some of you guys are ham radio operators (especially because I know some BSD-using hams from IRC). Anyway, who here is a ham radio op? What is your callsign? Do you use BSD to do any rig-control or logging, etc?
