A question about /tmp
Hello, I want to install FreeBSD with a small root partition. It's possible to use a different partition for /tmp, but /tmp can also be a symbolic link pointing, for example, /var/tmp. Is it a good idea ? If not what sort of problem will I encounter ? thanks, roland. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Hello, If you put this line in a startup script like ~/.xsession or ~/.xinitrc xautolock -time 5 -locker "xlock" xlock will be automatically launch after five minutes of inactivity. «man xautolock» and «man xlock» to configure xlock and xautolock exactly like want.

2 questions about usb memory stick ...
I've got a 128MB usb memory stick (pmi memory). It works very well since I've modified file /usr/src/sys/cam/scsi/scsi_da.c by adding lines: { /* * Pmi / 128MB */ {T_DIRECT, SIP_MEDIA_REMOVABLE, "Generic*", "USB Flash Disk*", "*"}, /*quirks*/ DA_Q_NO_6_BYTE|DA_Q_NO_SYNC_CACHE }, in the da_quirk_table structure. First question : who contact to add definitively these lines to scsi_da.c ? Second question: if memory stick is plugged when my computer boots up it is detected before my scsi disks. how to avoid that ? ( I must unplug it if I want my computer to boot because da0 is normally used by the first scsi disk :( ) Any suggestions are welcome!
