Hey ,
 
I am using a Pentium 200MHz with 32 Ram and the problem is that when I
installed 4.5 everything was fine.
Then I switched to the 4.6 version and :
1.	The XFree Config kept failing!!
2.	Gnome would not install and KDE would be extremely slow !!!
(generally X is extremely slow)
3.	Sometimes network commands would fail e.g
# ping www.yahoo.com <http://www.yahoo.com/> 
 
(nothing happens)
Plus the configuration tool for X that 4.5 had was a lot more easy to
set up.
 
I am not an expert I am just trying to learn FreeBSD and those things
just keep annoy me.
 
Thanks for any help
