anyone?

I have been using freebsd since the past three months now. I have installed and reinstalled 5 times. But, this time, I put in the bootonly CD and it took about 15-20 mins to get to the Welcome to Freebsd screen (the screen with the Freebsd logo). Now, it says: /boot/kernel/acpi.ko text=0x52730...

When I write my own programs in C, I obviously run the executable by using ./<my program name> and it works. But, I was wondering if there was a way to run programs by just typing the program name and I think this is possible since I can run firefox 3 by just typing in firefox3. PS. Where can I...

oh! Thank you :)

What about xterm? Those fonts are reeeealy small.

Whenever I do pkg_add -r epiphany its starts installing gnome!!

I run firefox on my laptop but on the desktop on which I have freeBSD I can't run firefox since the desktop only has 8 mb of ram. I don't want something like dillo either which is too minimalist and can't even format freebsd.org correctly. Epiphany was perfect match for me on debian but I don't...

I don't have a window manager or desktop manager. Just xorg to open firefox and wireshark. I think my monitor is 19'' but I can't be sure since I bought from a yard sale and I never got a handbook or anything.

I installed fluxbox thinking it would be very useful but I don't seem to think so anymore. Can someone help me in deleting installed ports?

I installed xorg and it working great except for one very crucial thing. The font size is miniscule. My eyes have almost popped out trying to read the letters! Any tips on how to increase the font size?

Oops. I didn't correctly edit the rc.conf file I did it with sysinstall and google.com replies just great :)

that doesn't do anything... But, now I have a new problem. I have edited rc.conf to set up DHCP. Now, when I do ifconfig, I get that x10 (the interface I made) has its status as active but when I do ping google.com, it fails in looking up the hostname. I think the problem is that I didn't...

I forgot to set up ethernet when I did sysinstall and I wish to get back to it again. I can't seem to find anything about that. What would be the command to do this?

thank you very much :)

so, I can do it after the install (please say yes)?

I'm trying to configure my mouse and i'll tried all the ports on the list and I still can't see the cursor, let alone move it. Its a USB mouse. How can I do this?

I've already metioned that I know about that errata and I have the CDROM at the highest priority in the boot device.

anyone?
