Woo hoo! Just installed PC-BSD 0.7.8

[californiajeff]

I am impressed with PC-BSD. Making my first post from PC-BSD!!!

Kudos to everyone involved in the development of PC-BSD!!!

Formatted my Mandriva Linux box with PC-BSD. Now I just need to install some .pbi files to see how that works. PC-BSD seems to run great on an old 867Mhz Compaq with 320MB of RAM.

You can download pbi files from here (http://www.pcbsd.org) I have made a few pbi files for ThunderBird 1.1a2, DeerPark alpha2 and VLC media player. I would be more than willing to share what I made. Btw any differences between KDE 3.4 and KDE 3.4.1.

Glad to hear it worked well for you californiajeff! Let me know of any problems you guys find!

BTW, for the differences between kde 3.4.0 and 3.4.1, take a look at http://www.kde.org, and the official changelog. Its mainly bugfixes and such.

Okay, I download new pcbsd 0.78 and install it same way and suprising... it work nice again... I mean 0.7 was made good but 0.75 I have lot of problems with kde and so on. Now, everything work just like they do...

I'm in the middle of moving, getting DSL connected to the new place and everything, and am anxious to try the new release! I can still download and burn the iso from the old place but my online activities will be limited for a while.

I would like to get the .pbi file for Thunderbird. I am not familiar with VLC media player. Can that play mp3's and/or divx's? If so, I want that too.

Thanks for all the hard work you have put in! Makes me wonder how you can have a full time job and eat and do all this coding? You are awesome! Keep it coming. Looking forward to the next PC-BSD release.

I also have ideas for some future releases past 1.0. Kris, I think you should take a look at the Haiku OS project may be we can implement some of their ideas over here. Although, some may not be feasible with the underlying FreeBSD core.
