Welcome!
Quote:
The environments described (Xfce, etc.) can all be found as officially available packages to OpenBSD. More information can be found in Section 15 of the FAQ. In general, the FAQ document is the single best source of information for newcomers to OpenBSD running the latest release. |

Thanks, ocicat! I've seen some nicely pimped-out fvwm and cwm setups, so I may just stick with those. I have looked through the officially available packages, and have found that everything I need is already there, so that's great! I'm also looking forward to picking up the highly rated "Absolute OpenBSD" book by Michael Lucas.

Recognize that "Absolute OpenBSD" is now available in its second edition.

New to the forum, e-mails returned
Hello all, this is a old topic, but figured that would be better then starting a new one,
Anyway, I did receive the e-mail, with my username and password, I apologize, there was a problem with the e-mail "bouncing", .. My name, Garry, and I am new to open bsd, just installed it a few days ago. Basically it is working well, as I learn more I will be able to add to it, as needed. Any way, thank you for accepting my registration, I was happy today, because I finally was able to mount a usb stick, this is going to help me a lot,..So I was able to copy this to it: dmesg-output.txt Code:
OpenBSD 5.6 (GENERIC) #274: Fri Aug 8 00:05:13 MDT 2014 deraadt@i386.openbsd.org:/usr/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/GENERIC cpu0: Intel(R) Core(TM) i3 CPU M 350 @ 2.27GHz ("GenuineIntel" 686-class) 2.26 GHz cpu0: FPU,V86,DE,PSE,TSC,MSR,MCE,CX8,APIC,SEP,MTRR,PGE,MCA,CMOV,PAT,PSE36,CFLUSH,MMX,FXSR,SSE,SSE2,SSE3,MWAIT,SSSE3 real mem = 536309760 (511MB) avail mem = 515096576 (491MB) mpath0 at root scsibus0 at mpath0: 256 targets mainbus0 at root bios0 at mainbus0: AT/286+ BIOS, date 06/23/99, BIOS32 rev. 0 @ 0xfc000, SMBIOS rev. 2.5 @ 0xe1000 (5 entries) anyway, guess that is about it for now. Thanks |
