Re:
It only requires the ability to read and follow directions, If you're not capable of doing such, then its defenately not for you!

All you need is a couple of formatted 1.44MB floppies and these directions. THIS IS NOT TRUE! - the installation actually is very difficult and so this Superior OS is not for 99.9% computer users - I'll probably kill my time only if I lost my job and stay home having nothing to do to configure how to install it. Comparing to Windows, this BSD is very dumb- want to me to tell it everything.

Re: athlon-mp daily hang 5.2.1
Check out this PowerNow! patch/module, http://demira.shopkeeper.de/~sascha/nx9005/ Its supposed to automatically set processor voltage depending on the hw.powernow.state set in the kernel. I havent got it to work automatically but I can manually set it to state 2 or 3 and the tempeture and fan noise drop down dramatically. Note that you do sacrifice speed for heat and noise. To me this is not an issue, my XP 1600 is still fast running at 1ghz for my needs. I just got started programming so I cant help out :), yet... maybe some of our smart delevopers will look into it further.
