Hi...
just for curious people...
After the big frustration of my laptop compatibility and o'bsd that
led me to go back to linux I have been thinking and thinking...
I have been skimming through the freebsd pages but I didn't get a good
feeling... it's becoming blobish like linux, I think...
And today I bumped into this:
GNU/FreeBSD
http://wiki.debian.org/Debian_GNU/kFreeBSD_FAQ
http://wiki.debian.org/Debian_GNU/kFreeBSD_why
Note their policy:
If you're concerned about running a 100% free system, our commitment
to the Debian Free Software Guidelines (DFSG) guarantees that Debian
GNU/kFreeBSD doesn't contain any non-free software. In fact, we have
removed some non-free binary-only drivers that are contained in the
upstream FreeBSD tree, like the ath driver.
And an IMPORTANT thing:
They have implemented the PF from o'bsd on it!!
Maybe the freebsd 6.1 kernel will better support this FJS laptop than
the 4.0 o'bsd one?
And you have the debian software repository ready to be digested by
your epicure, glutton gnu/freebsd system...
I think I am going to torture my crashbox with this...
