I've redirected this to -chat, it doesn't belong on -questions.

It was your attitude and tone that people (including me) reacted to, not your facts. Everyone's aware of FreeBSD's ATAPI CD-ROM problems, and nobody gets flamed for recognizing that. What does provoke people is messages that read "you suck because [linux | win95 | winnt] can [recognize my cd-rom | score well on whankstone | execute an infinite loop in 10 seconds] and FreeBSD can't!" Do you seriously think that anyone would bother to flame you for pointing out what they already know? Do you seriously think that anyone has a better knowledge of FreeBSD's limitations than the core team? > >> they all work and FreeBSD doesn't, whose wrong here dude?

I hate uSlop If I really believe what? That Linux and FreeBSD work? You're not going to convince me otherwise. That M$'s OSs don't work? I believe what I see, and that's what I see. > too, and the only reason I do have it here at all is because I need it to > support those at work!

An angel of truth, sent to tell the -questions-reading community that FreeBSD doesn't always detect ATAPI CD-ROMs correctly? Some kind of martyr? Save yourself the effort, no one else is interested in playing any of those games. > Paul Ben "You have your mind on computers, it seems."
