Hi all, Well, over the past few days I have made the transition to FreeBSD (6.4) as the primary OS on my home computer. I am currently running GNOME as a desktop, and it seems to be running well. Indeed, I am using Thunderbird to write this email! I have a couple of questions regarding the transition: 1. Does there exist a port or package, a messenger program, that is compatible with Windoze Live Messenger? i.e. can I log in similar to live messenger and see my contacts and collaborate with them? 2. Can I use any type of pictures for the desktop wallpaper? Where might I find some good wallpaper depicting the FreeBSD Daemon and Logo? 3. How does one add a device to the desktop as an icon? i.e. an external USB drive? TIA, -Grant
