0630 16:30 |     WizarK < god damn it >< can't shit like this be pre-configured
0630 16:30 |     WizarK < thought that's what makes a dist a dist =)
0630 16:30 | +   Moggie < no
0630 16:30 | +   Moggie < the point is, you learn how to use it and understand it.. in order to make it work
0630 16:31 | +    whack < WizarK: freebsd isn't a "dist"
0630 16:31 | +    whack < good try though
0630 16:31 |     WizarK < Okay, well, as far as I'm concerned the sysinstall knew how to do this for me, so a preconfiguration shouldn't be that far-fetched of an idea
0630 16:31 | +  easymac < WizarK: stop being a fool
0630 16:31 | +  easymac < you're arguing something you don't understand
0630 16:31 | +  easymac < against people who argue it
0630 16:31 |     WizarK < Yes I am
0630 16:31 | +  easymac < use your fucking head
0630 16:31 | +  easymac < try learning
0630 16:32 | +  easymac < then make for discussion
0630 16:32 | +  easymac < not time wasting
0630 16:32 | +  easymac < -against people who argue it
0630 16:32 | +  easymac < +against people who know it
0630 16:34 |     WizarK < Okay, one question. This instructs me just fine how to update the ports collection but tbo I can't rly find where to browse the ports with description.
0630 16:34 | +  easymac < im not sure
0630 16:34 | +  easymac < but that MIGHT be in the handbook
0630 16:34 | +  easymac < or on freshports.org
0630 16:35 |     WizarK < But the googlebot gave me a broken url.
0630 16:35 | +  easymac < /topic
0630 16:35 | +  easymac < OMG

0630 16:37 | +  notluke < xibalba: sfw?
0630 16:37 | +  easymac < WizarK: the next thing you say better imply some kind of learning has happened, or be simply 'thank you'
0630 16:38 |     WizarK < Well thanks for the help this far but still even in the handbook it tells me to "browse to the port I cant to collect" then the make sequense.. Nowhere to be found is there any 
          browsing/description found.
0630 16:38 | +  easymac < How old are you?
0630 16:39 |     WizarK < 21
0630 16:39 | +  easymac < And you can't read?
0630 16:39 |     WizarK < Yes, I've read the thing even though it's far from my native langue
0630 16:39 |     WizarK < And I can't find where to browse or find description of packages.
0630 16:39 |     WizarK < Just how to browse dirs and compile/install/clean up.
0630 16:39 | +    whack < grep? make search? freshports.org? All of these are documented.

0630 16:40 | +  easymac < that'll get you started
0630 16:40 | +  easymac < you should seriously rethink your life at the keyboard
0630 16:41 |     WizarK < You should be nicer to people, even though they don't know what you want them to know, or ask questions instead of keeping it for them self.
0630 16:42 |     WizarK < Found the port collection with descriptions @ http://www.freebsd.org/ports/categories-alpha.html so my problem's solved.

0630 16:42 | +  easymac < If you had an ounce of initiative I'd be nice.  But you're troublesome when you can't use google or read
