Hi,
I installed FreeBSD 7.0-current snapshot [200710] on my laptop. I have
two issues,
of which second is major:
1. It could not find any X filesets

Hi,
I recently upgraded to xorg 7.2 by doing a complete portupgrade. I run
FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE, with the default kernel, and default settings.
Initially I had about 230 packages installed, and after the upgrade
the number has gone up to 450! Lot of these seem to be X related
packages.

Hi,
I use postfix as an smtp client to deliver email to our enterprise
smtp server. Since the smtp server needs authentication, I used cyrus
sasl with postfix and things worked fine. After a portupgrade, postfix
has stopped working, and gives some wierd authentication error.

Hi,
I subscribe to many fbsd lists through gmail, and am not able to
visually detect which email was sent to which fbsd list. Is it
possible to add a tag in the subject line, something like, [fbsd-q],
or [fbsd-questions], or similar so that emails can be visually
classified?

I have FreeBSD 6.2 installed on a Dell Latitude D400 laptop. The

bigger capacity one - 80G. I have to move the existing FreeBSD system

My FreeBSD box picks up its IP through DHCP. Now I configured a

I thought it would be a good idea to use sudo on my FreeBSD laptop, but I'm
having doubts after checking the handbook (it's not mentioned at all) and
Google (most of the articles were obscure and / or old).
