No, it is not Linux, it is something original. I don't like copies when the original is available for free. Cool

I am still running FreeBSD 5.1-RELEASE ( I make world at least once a week ) on my laptop happily while some of my friends are experiencing problems with 5.1 on their laptops. Most common problems are APM/ACPI, Sound and Modem issues.
For me the only problem is my Modem which is a Rockwell softmodem and a little bit of APM problems. As for the modem I can't do anything since there is no driver in FreeBSD for this softmodem, and the problem with APM is my laptop's VIA mainboard which is not comparable to intel equivalents.
I am using X only to have many fullscreen xterms and graphical web surfing. and thats really enough for me. :idea:

p.s. I am thinking of posting some screenshots from my desktop in a couple of days.

He also posted an announcement that he got another server on his network. If most networks posted about getting and losing servers, we'd be posting every few days Smile

But if you do happen to lose your main server or DNS, it would be nice if people would email me (ed@searchirc.org) about them.
