I have just now fresh installed TrueOS and listened to few FreeBSD subprojects like GhostBSD, MidnightBSD, DesktopBSD that both are desktop-focused like TrueOS, but ones more thanks? Ones are best if recommended (or default) desktop is Qt-written and lightweight like TrueOS and whose Lumina. :D
Hello everyone,

I used to compile software using the ports collection. On the other side, I use gentoo linux and, as a developer and building everything from source in...

Hi,
I was using x11/mate as my desktop manager and recently decided to install x11/gnome3. There are some issues I have been struggling with;
1 ) GNOME insists using x11-fm/caja instead of x11-fm/nautilus as the main file manager
2 ) x11-fm/nautilus uses large icons, that I don't like. When I...
Hi, I installed Lumina desktop 0.8.7 on FreeBSD 10.2 and if I look for Lumina screenshots at the web, I see they have the typical wifi signal icon at the system tray, but I can't find it in the plugins list for the panel (Lumina is a plugin based desktop). I've searched at FreeBSD packages and...
