I have been running PC-BSD 9.0 with the KDE interface in a VirtualBox VM, and
notice that it uses CPU resources when idle, driving up my CPU temperature
about 15 degrees on an otherwise idle machine. (It is an Intel i5 quad four).
Is this to be expected?

I find weird behaviour with this site. It works fine on Windows systems, but
Firefox on FreeBSD (and also Firefox, Opera and Chrome on Ubuntu) fails to
connect. It immediately tries to retrieve www.clubrunner.ca/Home, but then the
connection hangs.
Does anyone have any clues, please?

FreeBSD Handbook is a superb
resource, bringing everything together in a single document. For a system
running KDE or GNOME, it is hard to tell the difference. The software
installation system (source-based ports or binary packages) are about as easy
to use as apt-g

Yes, it brought d
ice user's point of view. Both work
great. Both seem rock solid, and recover well from the occasional power
outages I get at my new home. (Ought to get a battery backup before disaster
hits one day, I suppose). All the development tools are a few mouse-clicks
away.
I may switch back

If it is a DOS-format device, you need to say
mount -t mdsos /dev/da0 /mnt
or maybe
mount -t msdos /dev/da0s1 /mnt

e able to use the antique line-editor 'ed' from the "ridiculous"
shell. Use Knoppix or another machine to read or write down the man pages,
and use it to delete the lines from fstab.
You might also be able to use 'sed' from the command line to change the
offen
ode, and is my current favourite. TCL is
more verbose, and does not have the excellent OO features to be found in
Python and Ruby. Python is very easy to learn - it even seems a bit naive to
begin with, but it is actually very powerful.
OT as you said, and the stuff of flamewars!

x27;, or
any tutorial on bash for a more detailed description. Quite confusing
syntax, and a hard-to-remember incantation, IMHO.

The 'ed' editor is in /bin, and so is available at single-user boot. It
is a real antique, but if you have a copy of the manual it is not too
hard to correct /etc/fstab.
'ee' is in /usr/bin

, I beleive you have to issue a 'rehash' command after
modifying the libraries in $PATH. I would not have expected to see this
problem with bash, however.
