Re: psmintr
There was a bug that caused this not too long ago. Try resupping rebuilding. Forgot to mention, it's a 4.1-stable box (PIII-450, 256MB ram, 1024MB swap) On Wed, 23 Aug 2000, FengYue wrote: Hi, what does "psmintr: out of sync ( != 0008)." mean? I got tons of this message on my console and then my X-window went nearly dead. sounds like my PS/2 mouse's problem? Found the source code in isa/psm.c, but have not got any clue what could have caused this. (Have had this mouse for last 2 years). Thanks!

nfs mount problem
Hello, I am running FreeBSD 4.1. I have made an NFS mount. server:/some/partition /mnt nfs rw 2 2 If I start to bring over files from that mount partition (/mnt) to a local directory, say /some/other/directory, it times out if I open up another terminal and type ls in /some/other/directory.I am not sure if there is something I can put in my fstab to help from this timing out problem. I have read the man pages for mount_nfs and nfsd. Any suggestions? Jason Kraft To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
