When using the Update Manager GUI tool in PC BSD 9.0 (based on FreeBSD) I get the following message. Failed to install:BugFix: Adds complete foomatic set, 8000+ new printer drivers Possible causes: Dropped internet connection or low disk space. I don't see how it can be the internet...

Dwell click works well for me. If nobody on the mailing list responds it would likely be better to try to install a dwell click program using the Linux emulator. Not sure if that would work though.

I think that will only affect the file manager. What about all the other applications?

Is there a dwell click program for XFCE or do I need to use a different desktop? I have RSI (repetitive stress injury) and I can't use a computer for long without dwell click (also known as hover click or auto click) unless I go strictly command-line, which kind of eliminates Web browsing...

I finally got into my BIOS and changed the mode for the DVD drive's port to IDE and now it got past the problem I was having (seems to hang again later but likely for an unrelated reason). Thanks.

I was pressing the key repeatedly from the instant I turned the computer on but that wasn't working. But holding it down did work. I also unplugged the keyboard from the KVM switch and put it directly into the USB port but I don't think that mattered (might matter for the rest of my install...

BTW ... thanks for the pointers!

"The HDD may have worked for a while but then stopped working... " I bought a new HDD (actually a SSD) and all is fine. I suspect that it got a shock that killed it while I was connecting it to a different SATA port or cable to test my ports and cables. I shut the computer off but forgot to...

I installed FreeBSD 9.0 AMD 64-bit today (my first time ever using FreeBSD) and the install seemed to work, i.e. I got no errors during the install and created one user account and a root account. I was able to login as root after the install (but not as the non-root user). The problem is...
