Hello, I'm new to freebsd and the way it works(I mean, completely new; I don't even really understand what's going on in the handbook). I'm mentioning this, because I've searched the threads to find the solution to my problem and I didn't get half the things that were said, so please be...

Hello, I was trying to install the latest Current on a machine w/ a Nvidia K600 (it does have onboard Intel graphics as well). Unfortunately I am unable to startx as it either complains about "No screens found" or another error message related to framebuffer mode. As layed out in the...

Hi there, After having a long discussion about future of the GNOME desktop, I decided to give a try to x11-wm/xfce. Different components that come with Xfce (taskmanager, squeeze etc...) required different versions of clang to be installed as a dependency. Now I have clang33, clang35 and...

Skip two paragraphs to get to the issue if you don't want to know the back story. I was using Xfce until a few weeks ago. It ran fine...or at least it did. I ran into some issues with loading Xfce. It would crash my computer for whatever reason. I don't remember a particular update causing this...

Hi to all! I am new to FreeBSD, and I have followed this guide (http://www.freebsdworld.gr/files/install10-us.pdf) to install and configure the system. I need to use the portuguese-brazilian (pt-br) keyboard layout, when I started the installation, a screen appeared asking what layout I wish...
