There'se been a lot of discussions regarding stability issues on FreeBSD 5.2 / 5.3. OTOH, the internet "press" was much more positive regarding NetBSD. François, as you know these 3 systems (Slackware included), how would you situate them in comparison to each other? -pu

Good point - LiLux as in "Libre Luxembourg" is not only about (GNU/)Linux, but about all Free and Open Source Software. Thus, a FreeBSD (or NetBSD, or OpenBSD) announcement is perfectly on-topic here. We won't even bite if general UNIX questions come (except maybe if it's about SCO ;-)), i.e. regarding Solaris, AIX, IRIX etc - we as a group may only be less experienced there. As for remaining on-topic: how well does FreeBSD do on SMP systems, what's the availability of drivers like for (as yet) less common platforms such as AMD64 and associated hardware? It's been ages since I've tried FreeBSD, so I'm really interested, especially since I'm eyeing a new box with lots of hard disk space... Greets & TIA, Eric

Re: [Lilux-help] news reader

by Serge Marelli

That is the typical USELESS response people get upset about. Listen, if someone asks you about something, like a GUI-based newsreader, by heavens stay on-topic or don't bother responding! It is no use, no help and counterproductive to respond something like "use a non-GUI newsreader" or "why bother with GUI when most people are happy with non-GUI". You're not helping, you're not answering the question. Why waste your time and our time with something that is not asked ?

Hi. I was asked about a good news-reader on linux. Something GUI-based. Thunderbird is IMHO not enough. Ideas? Al
