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?
Pidgin is a nice GTK program that works well with Windows Live Message
network.
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?
Take a look at http://www.freebsd.org/art.html
3. How does one add a device to the desktop as an icon? i.e. an external
USB drive?
Take a look at http://www.freebsd.org/gnome/index.html. I'm sure it will
answer (or point you to) your Gnome related questions.
TIA,
-Grant
