I have been toying again with FreeBSD after a 15 year absence for fun. The intent of the project was to document every experience I have with it, from setup, to packages installed (with shell scripts to cover setting it up) and then do things like catch errors. I installed and toyed with it on another laptop and just moved to my main personal laptop a few days ago. Why FreeBSD though? I used it for two years in college, so it has a sentimental quality for me :) But also, I want to catch up when life took over (i.e. job, etc.) and understand more of my own and other biases about UNIX operating systems, particularly as I understood and now understand it. It is also a way to comfortably go through problems I encounter without mental commitments. For example, I have two issues now: the wireless doesn't load after resume sometimes and sometimes X crashes. It's ok it happens - the FreeBSD is not even setup for desktop use by default. Anything I learn here like this gets applied to work, even if it is on Linux systems. It's a form of freshening up my problem solving skills, something I miss sometimes from work. BTW, vermaden's guides are great. I use his desktop configurations and they are filled with things to look into.
