Well anyway I know it won't take you long to figure it out, so good luck. linux I think is a better desktop than freebsd but try to still make freebsd native binary as their are plenty of nerds that prefer bsd's in general. It should not be to hard as it's just a slight change in the makefile for crafty. I will continue to make suggestions for new features in eboard to pulga and hopefully by the time you are ready, eboard will be too. sign, Eriq
