Personally I honestly think that FreeBSD's directory layout is the most carefully thought through one of all. You can't symlink binary files from /usr/X11R6 to /compat/linux /usr/X11R6, because they are in different binary formats. Also, please note that /usr/compat is just a temporary solution, which exists until everybody recognizes the total superiority of FreeBSD to other systems. 6.0 is starting the countdown towards FreeBSD 6.6.6, which will conquer the world :-) _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
