Add an /etc/apm/suspend script (make sure it is executable) with the following: #!/bin/sh pkill -USR1 xidle This script will run as root, when the system suspends. :2) Unfortunately I have to do a lot of video conferencing with some :people and I was wondering whether there is a way to do it on OpenBSD. :I know that skype is totally out of question but how about google :talk? I have also tried to install ekiga but it is shown as "broken" :when I try to install it from the ports. : No idea, sorry. :3) I have realised that firefox and chrome are almost there in playing :youtube videos via html5 but not quite. I used to play them in the :past with videoreplacer and gecko-mediaplayer but videoreplacer is not :available anymore for firefox. Do you have any suggestion for :alternatives? : Firefox in 5.2 will be much nicer. rthreads made a huge difference, as did the update to ffx 13. -- I fell asleep reading a dull book, and I dreamt that I was reading on, so I woke up from sheer boredom. _______________________________________________ Openbsd-newbies mailing list Openbsd-newbies@sfobug.theapt.org http://mailman.theapt.org/listinfo/openbsd-newbies
