gnome2 and packages cleanup

2005-08-27 Thread Gareth Campbell

Hey everyone,

I was installing gnome2 from the ports collection (on dial-up!) and it 
took like 3 days of constant work when it finally ran out of space on my 
/usr drive (only using a 6.4gig).  I thought this would be more than 
enough, but alas...  So I guess Gnome is too much for my wee system so I 
want to go back to using enlightenment.  My issue is that now my system 
is full of packages that I don't need.  How do I clean up my system of 
all of these packages without deleting packages that enlightenment uses??


Thanks

External Modem Speaker

2005-08-20 Thread Gareth Campbell

Hello everyone,

Just wondered if there's a way to run my external modem without the 
speaker?  It doesn't have a switch on it or anything, thought their 
might be a ppp command or FreeBSD command or something?


Thanks

Gareth

Internet firewall

2005-08-19 Thread Gareth Campbell

Hey guys,

I'm a newbie and have got my box all set up with FreeBSD 5.4, fluxbox 
wm, firefox, thunderbird etc...  It's all looking awesome, with 
transparency, and working well.  I run it on dial-up ppp but haven't set 
up any firewall.  Should I be setting one up?  If so, do I use one of 
the bundled firewalls or can someone recommend one that would suit my 
purposes?  This is a stand-alone box, not on a home network.


Thanks

Gareth
