Hello,
I need your point of view about FreeBSD on Netbook and hope to be on the right forums. So, I installed the latest 8.2-release on a Acer Aspire One D255 Netbook and I've some problem with running X11, problem with connecting this netbook to an ethernet network... and other little problems! Still after many hours, things give me a headache.
I saw some error on boot and more dramatically, something crashes after a few minutes without doing something, or it reboots.
Here're my questions:
1) Someone could run "easily" FreeBSD on a netbook?
2) Is release 8.2 ok or have I made a mistake at the installation?
3) I could run opensuse or ubuntu on it, but I really want to use FreeBSD.
4) How much time should I spend to install with a normal use FreeBSD on a netbook?
Yeah, it's many questions but I despair slowly .
Best regards
