There have been some problems with this server the past few days and the
people who need to know do and are working on it.  In the meantime, you
can use snapshots.jp.freebsd.org.

Re: Recent -Current KDE problems

| I'm seeing this on a -current as of yesterday and as of today.  I 
| just finished a make world and kernel a few mins ago as well as

| last night before I tried to rebuild all the ports I was getting

This is because KDE is compiled with objprelink (ports/devel/objprelink)
which depends on a certain version of binutils, I guess.  Once I get my
laptop updated I'll see what I can figure out.. I'm guessing it's a
small patch to objprelink.  In the mean time, I'll see if I can add a
WITHOUT_OBJPRELINK hook to the KDE ports.

Probably some magic with OSVERSION (if it was bumped) or something.

Sounds like you're running moused.  I don't think XFree86 4.1 can use
/dev/sysmouse and interact with moused like 3.3.6 could.
