    Well, odds are your new hard drive will come with a PCI Promise controller...depending on vendor. I should have stated that first. Most all of the larger Western Digital drives these days come with a...

    Here is a interesting little page I found on the subject:

    Ahhh. You sound like you are ready to sink your teeth into something a bit more then.

    I still support my previous Essential System Administration book. But, I would very much recommend:

    Ever think of giving FreeBSD a try? I think a lot of the ideas that made Gentoo popular, were similar to what was already in FreeBSD. The FreeBSD ports and Gentoo's portage are quite similar....at...

    DVD burner support is good. And K3b is great for burning DVDs. Heck...even my old DVD RAM (well new...but old technology) is recognized.

    It's great that somebody has found a easy way for more people to use Debian. But it is worth noting that there is more than one Debian ISO image to download to use as your "boot CD" and those...

    I think it is all a matter of preference. I have purchased several UNIX/Linux books over the years. And in my opinion, I have always found that UNIX books provide the greatest amount of information...

    Most excellent choices. I myself would think going from Mandrake to Gentoo or Debian might be a bit of a big jump. But Slackware would be a nice migration I would think. I myself went from RedHat...

    SuSe for one. But...why limit yourself? I myself am considering a jump to the Athlon 64. But, I am planning on just upgrading the various packages as needed to support the 64 (and or kernel).

    Interesting. I run Gentoo also, but I use KDE. But, rather than my monitor going into power saving mode, my screen saver comes on. However, I used to run fluxbox, and I don't recall ever having what...

    As far as IP V6, I don't see that being widely deployed until IP Telephony starts to really take off. Then, the IP Address space in V4...

    Shoot! I recall reading that somewhere a while back! I didn't do that. I had however, thought about it. Oh well. In the process of updating my ports-supfile right now on 4.9.

    I don't know why....but for some reason in my browsing I have had pages just decide not to load since I upgraded to 5.2.1. It doesn't matter which browser I use either. I recompiled the kernel and...

    Hehehe...knew you would be first to reply John. I usually do the same, although the last time I went and downloaded firefox, I could not get it to work on FreeBSD. I could however, get Firebird to...
  22. What are you using for browsing in FreeBSD?

    Just curious what you folks are using out there for your browsing. I installed firefox from the ports, but it seems a little buggy on FreeBSD for some reason. No problems at all on Gentoo. I have...
