    Hello,
    I don´t know if this is the right adress for this,
    but I hope that you can help me.
    I´m a windows user and I just wanted to check other possibilities, so I
    downloaded and installed Linux.
    After a while I wanted to try the other systems, so I downloaded freebsd.
    I still got windows, but BSD has its own partition.
    BSD works, but the problem is that I can´t install many programs, like KDE
    or Gnome.
    Also, the X window server doesn´t work proper.
    I think the configuration is right, because Linux had no problems with it.
    If you need more information about my PC, here you are:
    Pentium 4 (2000mhz)
    Nvidia geforce4MX 460
    256MB DDR ram
    I don´t know if this was necessary, but why not?
    Please help me.

    Alexander Matthaei

    p.s. Please excuse my english. I´m from germany and really not good at
    english.
