To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello, I am new to using FreeBSD and am coming from the Mandrake Linux because I do not like that they do nor readily support the Ultra66 dma controller which happens to be in my PIII 500Meg system with VooDoo3 card. I did like using such applications as "mc" (Midnight Commander) "pico" (editor) and ncftp, but have found that wese are not installed with FreeBSD. Can you please tell me if they can be istalled or will they be in the next distros. Also, the latest Linux version are just now supporting hardware graphic accelerators such as the VooDoo 3 card in the kernel and in the new versions of XWindows andI am also wondering if FreeBSD will support these as well?
