Freebsd Problem

[Hunted]

A few days ago, I installed FreeBSD, but I had a problem.
I tried to install KDE deskop, but I got an error while installing it.
I am wanting to get rid of windows asap, and I heard FreeBSD is a good OS.

telling us the error might be a big help

Ok, hang on

Let me find it

=Edit=
Ok, had to check my mIRC log

The error is:

Loading of dependent package qt-3.2.1 failed

[4play]

google returned this not really of much use but the problem has been reported before so i would do a bit of reading on the mailing list to see what you can do about it.

Looks like you need that package. Try getting it from a ftp.freebsd.org ......... Kde is dependant on the qt libraries anyway.

I even tried to have it download the package from FTP, and I still got the exact same error

remove any other versions of qt first.

You have to compile ntfs support into the kernel. There may be an ntfs kernel module available, if not then the kernel has to be recompiled manually.
