1f74559b2f Remove reference to #freebsd on efnet. It isn't a support channel and
having it first on the list might cause people to visit is mistakenly.

 - Makes the spelling of DragonFly BSD consistent
 - Mention x86-64 as a common non-FreeBSD name for the amd64 platform
 - Fix several grammar and spelling issues
 - Mention that SMP support is enabled in the default kernel
 - Mention the sysv modules are default, but also available as modules
 - Default to "xterm" not "cons25", note that <9 uses "cons25"
 - Move one paragraph around so that "This" refers to the correct thing
 - Replace a reference that still existed to UserConfig (!)
 - Remove reference to the defunct "mbone" ports category
 - Remove derogatory comment about Windows, untrue for ~13 years

4081e218db Drop two questions from the FAQ:
o "How do I uninstall Kerberos" - Answer is almost entirely wrong, and
    I don't think I've ever seen anybody ask this so it's hardly an FAQ
  o "How do I add pseudoterminals to the system?"
    This question actually lacked any form of answer.  It is also no
    longer required in >=9.0, so just drop it

We don't have support for multiple <indexterm> elements pointing to
different parts of the same <sect1> right now. It requires a few
radical changes to collateindex.pl, so we can only have _one_ point

3c0e1737cf The Ideas list moved to the wiki some time ago, change entries in the site

I'm not particularly happy about linking to the wiki from the main site,

dd0dca44bf Make it clear that squid can either be run on the clients (as it was in the
