I have suggested several times that FreeBSD create a fund specifically for the hiring of professional programmers to take care of these edge problems. Or, in the case of poor support for quality wireless devices, a team devoted to creating drivers for them. Other OSs have gone this route to varying degrees with good success. However, FreeBSD continues to lag behind. The FreeBSD team seems more interested in bumping major version numbers than creating a fully functional OS. In my opinion, version 9 is really nothing more than version 7.x. Since I figured out how to make Dropbox work with the files in question on my FreeBSD box just fine from an MS Windows machine, I am no longer interested in getting a native FreeBSD version of Drobbox; although, I do think it would be a worthwhile endeavor nevertheless. -- Jerry ♔ Disclaimer: off-list followups get on-list replies or get ignored.
