Well, after : deleting /usr/obj cd /usr/ports make clean make cleanworld cvsup base system and ports build and install kernel and world and then portupgrade -f all my ports [ouf ! :-)] It works now like a charm and my lovely FreeBSD is again fast and stable. But I don't know what was the problem, and there was no trace of it on any logfile. So its solved ! Thanks both for your support. See you on the list. -- Laurent _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
