I have = a solid BSD system, but I want to change from the poor TWM display manager to one of the better ones such as FVWM2 or 95. I understand I have to alter = a config file to do this, but can't find which one, I cannot access the = newsgroups as I live overseas and my ISP does not yet provide them. I have searched the FAQ's = etc but cannot find the answer. After this I plan to port Netscape from the = CD, but I have been informed that my modem is incompatible withBSD. It is a US = Robotics sportster win modem 33.3kb. I plan to convert fully to BSD, for all my = computing but would like to change a little hardware as possible, so can I utilize = this modem? Any help you can offer would be greatly appreciated. Kind regards , Barry Monk ------=_NextPart_000_0006_01BD704E.BA5785E0 Content-Type: text/html; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD W3 HTML//EN"> <HTML> <HEAD> <META content=3Dtext/html;charset=3Diso-8859-1 = http-equiv=3DContent-Type> <META content=3D'"MSHTML 4.71.1712.3"' name=3DGENERATOR> </HEAD> <BODY bgColor=3D#ffffff> <DIV><FONT color=3D#000000 size=3D2>Hi, I'm running FreeBSD2.2.5, and I = have=20 upgraded to Xfree3.3.2.
