Desktop Install Option

2009-08-19 Thread Sabeeh Baig
So, I've been wondering about something.  FreeBSD is a general purpose
operating system, even though it has historically only heavily been used on
servers.  Why is it that FreeBSD doesn't provide a desktop installation,
something similar to say Debian's option of Standard Desktop?  For those
who need it, it'd be great.

Linux binaries on FreeBSD

2009-03-20 Thread Sabeeh Baig
Does Maya for Linux run on FreeBSD via the compatibility layer?  Also, does
a recent version of Matlab for Linux run on FreeBSD via the compatibility
layer?  The Handbook only mentions Matlab 6.3, which is very old and dated.
