    Yay! - Got FreeBSD 4.4 up and running

    After several nights of farking around with my ipfw script, trying to get the results I wanted, I'm finally up and running with X 4.1.0, Mozilla 9.3, gkrellm, xmms, Eterm. I'm posting this from FreeBSD now. The Ports are cool ;D

    Pkg_add is much the same as apt-get, except better... :P BTW, if you don't need to use ports (and 95 percent of the time you don't), use pkg_add instead...it's waaaay faster.

    You can't dpkg --get-selections > pkg.list with pkg_add
