  Subject: Question


   i have already install freebsd, i have never used it i don't have any =
experience with it, i only have experience with linux...., i have some =
questions, if you can help with them i appreciate it:
  1. I have linux, windows and freebsd 4.3 i want to know if i can boot =
all the systems becouse the freebsd's booloader i don't know why don't =
boot my linux.

  ##  IF YOU INSTALL LINUX BOOTLOADER (LILO) IN MBR , FBSD BOOTLOADER =
NOT WORK.
  ##  IF YOU WANT USE FBSD BOOTLOADER , INSTALL LILO IN ROOT PARTITION =
OF LINUX

  2. i can't configure the x-windows..., the configuration of the x-win =
in freebsd is like in linux slackware..., but i don't know why when i =
start my x-windows the mouse don't move correctly and the size of the =
screen is very big.., i have a nvidia tnt2

  ##  USE  /stand/sysinstall =20

  3. Maybe i can configure the x-win if i have the command XF86Setup but =
i couldn't find it in the ports, you know many ports and i didn't know =
the specific name if you know the name of the port and you can tell me =
that thanks.

  ## PLEASE PLEASE FIRST READ HANDBOOK, YOU FIND EVERYTHING WHAT YOU =
WANT TO DO.
