Hi guys,
first up I hope I am in the right place as my questions are of a generic
nature about FreeBSD as I consider myself a new user not having much
mileage with the OS as of yet!
Secondly I just wanted to wish everyone a happy Christmas and New Year
also since we are in that period :-)
Running with no xorg.conf is fine, but you need to make sure dbus and
hal are started at boot. Follow the handbook for best results.

I'm sure I started them as this doc is exactly what I followed.. I

I would say ufs2 easily wins, but remember this is the
freebsd-questions list ;) There are some differences though, ufs2
uses softupdates, not journaling(journaling is available and easy to
implement via gjournal). Softupdates I believe are a little faster
than journaling, but it's
I can't speak to the rest, but WRT the GUI, I suspect you'll find it a

much. Once I installed /usr/ports/x11-wm/xfce4 with a 'make

The most common cause is that either hald (sysutils/hal) or dbus (devel/dbus)
isn't running. Xorg needs them both to detect mouse and keyboard. Add
dbus_enable=YES and hald_enable=YES to rc.conf to get them to start
automatically.

What is not unusual is to symlink /home e.g:
# ln -s /usr/home /home
ditto for /tmp. i.e you remove all the stuff that uses up space from

So the only slices you need are /, /usr, /var and swap.
How I'd slice up the disk:
2GB for /
2GB for swap
2GB for /var

Hi,
I'm planning on using FreeBSD 8.0 x64 RELEASE edition for a small
primary/secondary DNS server setup.
The system will run Bind9 and have some zone files and views for the few

I am considering using a dual Atom system board with 2GB RAM and for

edition of FreeBSD 8.0.
The issue is this:
I provisioned 2 servers on two separate networks; one a 32bit system and
the other a 64bit in order to log information coming from Cisco network

Hi,
I'd just like to know if the Intel DG45FC Fly Creek LGA 775 Mini-ITX
system board is compatible with FreeBSD and also if there is a PCIe SATA

I plan on building a Mini-ITX based NAS/Server using a Chenbro hot-swap
