After building my new PC (AMD DX4-133 16M 814M HD) I thought FreeBSD would be ideal as an OS. I installed just the bin set and was =very= impressed with the result. Just a few problems that I hope you can help with. $ cat test.c #include <stdio.h> int main(argc,argv) int argc; char **argv; { printf("hello, world\n"); return(0); } $ gcc -o test test.c $ test $ yep, it prints nothing... Can anyone help? It seems as if stdout isn't being used. b) how to change keyboard settings, the mappings seem a bit pear shaped for non-alphanumerics (dollar/pound/hash/pipe etc) I would like to re-iterate that 2.2-RELEASE is very easy and straight- forward for the novice to install (I am that novice!) so a big pat on the back for all concerned with the development. yours Chris Lamb
