Re: fortune database
There are a couple of ports that install new fortune databases. See /usr/ports/games/fortune-* and the Porter's Handbook for more. Kris I think you meant to type /usr/ports/misc/fortune-* At least that is where I found mine. Thanks BTW... I was wondering if there were more I could add.

You dont really need to upgrade daily, you are just overloading freebsd cvsup servers. That's not true... I'm running FreeBSD 5.2-CURRENT. Keeping a local CVS mirror which is updated once a day and test build/run on my machine is the least I can do to help in testing the -CURRENT branch. The mirror I use is the one that is closest to me (cvsup2.gr.freebsd.org). I don't think that this can be called overloading the CVSup servers. If you *do* think that it's an overkill, perhaps you should explain why you think this is so and why the tests I'm privately doing of -CURRENT are so completely and utterly worthless that they're considered overkill, overload or anything else similarly redundant :-P Also, why to make all the source tree if you just get few modifications per day? It would be wise to know what part or the tree was updated and just compile it or let the whole compilation for later. Because this is the recommended way of building everything to see how it fits together. The make buildworld target is what the end-user will see when they try to build FreeBSD 5.X one day. If this is broken, a full build is going to catch it very quickly. There are times -- i.e. when I'm preparing patches to a particular part of the source tree -- that I build only parts using the Makefiles of the proper SUBDIRs. These are special purpose builds though and I know when or why I'm doing a partial build. If you want to see your machine working at 100% cpu, learn prolog. Spare me the irony, please. I don't need it. The list doesn't need it. I was trying to contribute to the thread in a positive manner, showing an example of commands that can be used to bring a FreeBSD system from single user mode up to the point where all the disks are mounted and real work can be done. If you have nothing positive to add to the discussion or you haven't spotted something wrong in what I wrote and feel like correcting me, I'd be glad if you didn't make bad-tempered jokes about it all.

Matthew Seaman wrote: On Mon, Jul 19, 2004 at 10:42:08AM +0200, Wojciech Puchar wrote: where can i find info about possible options in make.conf for ports builder Look at the ports(7) man page and the default make.conf (which is /etc/defaults/make.conf under 4.x, and /usr/share/examples/etc/make.conf in 5.x, or you can look at it in CVS via http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/share/examples/etc/make.conf ) Otherwise, port specific make flags can be found generally by inspecting the Makefiles for each port, or the Makefiles under /usr/ports/Mk. Each of the Makefiles in /usr/ports/Mk has a long pre-amble documenting the various settings available. The convention is that variables starting 'WITH_' 'WITHOUT_' or 'WANT_' are user-settable; variables starting 'USE_' are for the port maintainer to deal with. Any section marked 'OPTIONS' causes the port to generate a popup menu allowing you to set the various flags listed either as 'WITH_FOO' or 'WITHOUT_FOO' -- those values are retained under /var/db/ports so you won't get the menu popup the second or subsequent times you make that port unless you specifically run 'make reconfig'. Note too that there are a number of ports that have variable settings which pre-date this convention: in those cases, you'll have to figure out from context what is user-settable and what isn't. Also note: most people find that using portupgrade(1) and friends to manage their ports gives best results. In which case, you can enter those make variables into the MAKE_ARGS array in /usr/local/etc/pkgtools.conf -- one big advantage of doing that is it allows you to apply the make argument to building a specific port. I don't think there are any such conflicts, but there's no guarrantee that two ports won't use the same make variable with conflicting meanings.

Re: Windows X
Dear Chris, I'm sure you'll get a lot of answers to this one, but I'll dive in. First off, I guess you mean Xwindows, not Windows X. Xwindows by itself is basic - you need a window manager to make it look nice. FreeBSD comes with a few good ones. Most people who want bells and whistles use KDE, which is included on the FreeBSD install CD. For each user (maybe you just have one), put a file in their home directory called .xinitrc with this content: exec startkde That will do it. There are other window managers, some of which are might lighter weight (thus faster) than KDE, even if not as pretty. For example, if you wanted fvwm, then file .xinitrc would have this content: exec fvwm This will only work, of course, if you've installed fvwm (it's also on the FreeBSD install CD). By the way, all of the above applies to Linux as well, this is not just a FreeBSD thing. best regards, Robert On Mon, 19 Jul 2004 13:55:05 -0500 Christopher Smith [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I am a new user to FreeBSD.

ahd driver on 4.9 has problem with more than 3 drives
Hello All, I am trying to run FreeBSD 4.9 on a server that has 4x146GB ultra 320 SCSI drives. The motherboard is a Tyan S2720 with an Adaptec 7902 Ultra 320 onboard. (Also tried it with 4x73GB drives). The systems works fine when there are 3 drives in the system. As, soon as I plug in the 4th drive and boot the system in starts to 'dump card state' after the 'waiting for 15 secs for scsi devices to settle' line and never boots up completely. It just repeats dumps card state. I then loaded FreeBSD 5.2.1-REL and even that dumps card state, but it boots up fine. I have included the dmesg in the mail. (Sorry for including everything. I didnt know what might be important). I havent changed anything in the kernel, its a standard install. Does anyone have any clue as to why this could be happening on 4.9. Am I missing some parameter or something here. Or, is it possible to load the 5.2.1 ahd driver on 4.9. If so can somebody give some instructions on how to do that. I would appreciate any kind of help. Please let me know if you want me to do anything else or provide any other information.

To change the configuration of any port that uses the OPTIONS mechanism, simply do: # make config in the port directory. Note that with the new PHP setup, most of the configurable bits are now in the lang/php4-extensions or land/php5-extensions ports -- not that you need to install either one of those. They're just meta-ports where you can select a bunch of php extensions easily. Since each extension is a separate port now, you can just go round and install all the one you want. Nb. To get PHP to load the shared modules correctly, you'll need to change the 'extension_dir setting in /usr/local/etc/php.ini. I found that setting it like this: extension_dir = /usr/local/lib/php/20040412/ did the trick.

Re: [OT] Apple's contribution to OSX
Dear All, First off, apologies for this off-topic post, but I think this is the only place I'm likely to get an intelligent (and well-informed) answer to my question. I tried searching the web, but found a confusing and contradictory bunch of poorly-informed opinions, which wasn't helpful. I'm writing a news article about Apple's contribution to open source. In particular, I'm interested in finding out the following: 1) How much of FreeBSD did Apple actually use in OSX? If I'm not mistaken, the Darwin kernel is not related to FreeBSD in any way (or is that wrong?). Basically, what exactly did Apple gain from FreeBSD? 2) What exactly has Apple contributed back to FreeBSD? (money? equipment? source code?). Nowadays, does Apple still continue to give anything back to the FreeBSD community? 3) How much of OSX today is open source (or shared source)? Can you actually see the OSX source code? Can you use any of it? Because this is off-topic, it might be better if people responded directly to my email address rather than this forum. Since you have asked it here, if anyone responds, it might as well be here. Some people will be interested. Some might even try to tinker. jerry I can be reached at [EMAIL PROTECTED] I know that I could ask these questions on an OSX forum, but then I'd probably receive 1000 replies from people telling me that OSX is the greatest thing since sliced bread - which, even if true, has nothing to do with the article I'm writing. And yes, I'm running FreeBSD (and Linux) at home, not OSX, but that also has nothing to do with the article. I appreciate any help I can get on this, and as always I'm happy to acknowledge anyone by name in the article for their assistance. thanks in advance and best regards, Robert ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

PHP 4.3.8 upgrade missing things
Hey all, Usually when I build PHP, it asks me about a couple dozen things - perl compatible reg ex's, ftp support, etc. When I did a portupgrade last night it didn't ask me those things - only three things (apache 2, and two other things).

Re: openoffice install and java JRE on 4.10
Peter, JRE is the acronym for Java Runtime Environment. Because java is an interpreted language, a java program needs an interpreter to be able to translate a java program into a machine readable form. Perhaps some of the openoffice.org's functionality were develop using java, maybe that's the reason why it needs a Java Runtime Environment. If you need to know more about Java, try visiting http://sun.java.com Java has already been ported to FreeBSD. You can find one here: http://www.freebsdfoundation.org/DL/28994/DL Download the one that looks like this: diablo-jre-1.3.1.0.tgz At this very moment while I'm sending this to you, I'm still completing the download of openoffice.org-1.1.2.

RE: pserver unavailable for anoncvs.freebsd.org
Hi Ralph, Well, OK, true. Anyway, the example might contain a US based server, but the main servers are noted in the Handbook. And for the US it is a SSH only. I would assume the text is correct and the example is not. Please submit a bugreport to the doc team ;) Note that you can determine which ports you update with cvsup as well. Would the base system be enough?

The problem with it is the 500MB of disk space the ports collection uses up. I have a 40G hard drive on my server, but I come from the days when 20MB was a big drive :-) so I like to use as little as possible. Anyways, the point isn't so much why I was using anoncvs to build a port as the fact that pserver does not work for the US cvs server, and it's documented to work in the Handbook example...sort of. The server list says that the US server does not have pserver access, and yet the example do. Which is correct? So fat, the list appears correct.

Unfortunately, we get this error: cvs [login aborted]: connect to anoncvs.FreeBSD.org(128.46.156.46):2401 failed: Connection refused Is this because pserver has been disabled on that server, because the connection limit has been exceeded, or some other issue?

Re: Windows X
following sources will probably yield the richest results: o the freebsd handbook (perhaps the best OS handbook out there): - http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/index.html - you also have a copy locally installed at /usr/share/doc/handbook. o the freebsd-questions mailing list archive: - http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-questions/ o google o any books you may have purchased. at least in Poland, i would recommend agains buying a book. just waste of money, as they won't give any more information that listed URLs, while some of them can give lot of informational noise - mostly books about Linux. and there's very little literature available on other unices than linux. regarding your question, i would recommend starting off with the handbook section on X: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/x11.html note that the handbook only touches upon 3 of the better known window managers/desktop environments. if you're looking for something that won't be too disorienting (say you're coming from windows or mac), try KDE or GNOME. these are full blown desktop enviroments (applications, games, etc) and HUGE installations. i think it is very disorienting, as they try to be windows-like, and like windows it take user away from actual knowledge as it can. if you really wan't to learn unix, stay away of KDE and Gnome (while you may like to use some apps from them). there are scads of other window managers out there and these vary greatly in size and functionality. with a little time and experimentation, you'll eventually find the one that best suits your needs. i recommend you icewm windows manager with icepref configurator for it. good for beginner while fast, small, configurable. And it's actually mostly window manager, without lots of gadgets. about format for mailing list questions: o many people reading and replying here use tools that don't react quite the same way as outlook express. your messages with reach the greatest amount of readers while causing these the least amount of grief, if you 'wrap' your messages at around 75 characters. (either through a setting in i fully agree with this. but i think (not sure) that outlook as most of microsoft products can be configured to behave normally, it's just difficult and usually not well documented. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Note that you can determine which ports you update with cvsup as well. Would the base system be enough?

@conflicts in /var/db/pkg/*/+CONTENTS
Whenever I run pkg_info, I am receiving error messages that indicate conflicts with my packages. For example, when I run pkg_info, I get: pkg_info: read_plist: bad command '@conflicts libX11-*' grep'ing for libX11-* in /var/db/pkg shows the offending package to be XFree86. Or, more specifically: XFree86-libraries-4.3.0_7 I was getting another conflict with fontconfig, but reinstalling it with portinstall -rP helped. I tried reinstalling XFree86-libraries. But, this time it didn't help. Running pkgdb -F exits normally without error. But, it doesn't help resolve the conflicts. Would including -R as an option to portinstall help? I have seen similar problems on Google. Yet, I don't see any solutions. There are only 2 things that I can think of that would be worth mentioning that could possibly be related to the problem. First is that since I am running 4.6-RELEASE, my system may be too old to work properly with current ports. The second is that I recently moved my installation to another HD. That's been a couple of months ago and I haven't noticed any other problems with that transition. One last bit of information that might be helpful to mention is that I use portupgrade. As a possible fix, I have considered upgrading to 4.10-RELEASE. But, I'm fearful that I will end up trashing my box completely. Any suggestions?

Maybe I'm way off here because I do not do any such testing as Giorgos suggests, but how are the developers supposed to supply patches for problems if -CURRENT builds are in fact not built, and build-errors not found? I would think that it would be easier to mirror the tree, and build daily/weekly etc to find build errors than it would be to review the source code line-for-line to find the bugs. It is better to test and contribute code. How do you suggest testing without building? I believe that Giorgos is suggesting that *is* what he is doing...building, locating bugs, fixing (contributing/committing code). Could someone with more experience clarify this? This is quite a confusing thread.

Re: [OT] Apple's contribution to OSX
Robert Storey wrote: [ ... ] First off, apologies for this off-topic post, but I think this is the only place I'm likely to get an intelligent (and well-informed) answer to my question. I tried searching the web, but found a confusing and contradictory bunch of poorly-informed opinions, which wasn't helpful. It's not clear to me that you are going to obtain anything different by asking your questions here. :-) I'm writing a news article about Apple's contribution to open source. In particular, I'm interested in finding out the following: You ought to ask Ernie Prabhakar, Wilfredo Sanchez, Jordan Hubbard, or someone like them at Apple. Asking about what Apple has done for FreeBSD, or vice versa, is like studying one tree out of a forest. People at Apple have make significant contributions on for the Apache 2, Java, Samba, GCC, and such, as well as to the BSD projects. 1) How much of FreeBSD did Apple actually use in OSX? If I'm not mistaken, the Darwin kernel is not related to FreeBSD in any way (or is that wrong?). Basically, what exactly did Apple gain from FreeBSD? The Darwin kernel, Mach, is not related to FreeBSD in any way. Apple mostly started with NetBSD improvements to their NEXTSTEP-derived userland based on an old BSD 4.3 version, and since have adopted many changes from FreeBSD as well. Stuff like Unix CLI programs, various standard C library fixes and updates, IPFW, KAME's IPv6 stack, things like that. 2) What exactly has Apple contributed back to FreeBSD? (money? equipment? source code?). Nowadays, does Apple still continue to give anything back to the FreeBSD community? I know at least one FreeBSD committer who is working at Apple, so I suppose that providing jobs counts as money...? I don't know about equipment. Yes, to source code. Apple recently released a bunch of changes and fixes to the MS-DOS filesystem compatibility kernel module, which someone here was looking over. I'd imagine you could find other examples if you looked, to answer the second question. 3) How much of OSX today is open source (or shared source)? Can you actually see the OSX source code? Can you use any of it? Others have responded to this with URLs that are more useful, but lots, except for GUI programs, yes, and yes would be my answers. -- -Chuck ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Windows X
I am a new user to FreeBSD. Is Windows X an extremely basic windows program. I loaded your CD that I purchased from Microcenter onto my computer and I was not able to see anything except a very primitive windows program. If this is what is then I'm fine with it, but if there is more how can I get to it? Christopher, Xwindows by it is lonesome is a might boring for my taste. I guess you should first be asking yourself what is it you will be doing with the system you are setting up: Will you be running this as a server and are simply looking for an easy way to interface with the system? Are you setting up a desktop replacement? If you are setting up a server will it be accessible from the Internet or is it simply a local system? If you are setting up a desktop what will be your top 5 main uses? SERVER: If you are running a server, then the obvious (I didn't like the answer when I first started either) is do not install X. It takes a lot of disk space, it does slow down the system, and more software means potentially more security vulnerabilities. So why not only run X when you need to actually need to use the system. Sure, you set your system to not have X running at startup (this is the default) and only start it when you need it. However, you are still wasting space, there are still potential security risks, and honestly running the system from a command line is not all that hard. In addition, you can telnet into it from your desktop so you would not need a Keyboard/Mouse/Monitor. If you decide you must run a GUI because you are unfamiliar with CLI or you just like them better pick one of the lighter weight window managers. Yes, they are boring but you do not need a fancy desktop on a Server. DESKTOP: If you are planning on this being a desktop replacement then I can fully understand wanting to have a cool desktop. KDE is very popular as well as GNOME. You can see screenshots on their respective websites. KDE has a cool feature that if set up allows you to pick your window manager on login (mind you this causes KDE and X windows to be running at all times). This would require reading chapter 5 in the FreeBSD Handbook. This is arguably you greatest source of FreeBSD information. It is a short chapter to read but does explain quite a lot. I myself had to read the chapter more then once before I fully understood it. Now I feel very comfortable using X. No expert but I feel very comfortable. The one you choose is up to you. I say play with as many as you can and see which one fits your needs better. You can find many personal opinions online as to which display manager is better. I have no desire to be labeled a troublemaker so I will not give my opinions on the subject. There are also several sites dedicated to customizing the look and feel of the various window managers. The community can correct me if I am wrong but applications built for KDE will run fine on GNOME and vice versa. I think they just may not look as pretty as they use different API's or something. They still work they just need their associated libraries and you are good. Therefore, if you fall in love with the KOFFICE application but prefer the GNOME desktop, I don't think there is a problem with that (you can also install OPENOFFICE.). Well enough said. Good luck.

Re: Windows X
space, it does slow down the system, and more software means potentially more security vulnerabilities. just having X running doesn't seem to slow down system. only using slow and memory hungry software may do it. but i don't see anything wrong in having X on server if it's used as workstation at the same time. if it's started from XDM you may remove suid so no security risk. -nolisten tcp for X server will turn off listening on TCP port - removing rest of possible security problems. If you decide you must run a GUI because you are unfamiliar with CLI or you just like them better pick one of the lighter weight window managers. Yes, they are boring but you do not need a fancy desktop on a Server. anyway why run X server just to run then Xterm and some commands to configure services? understand wanting to have a cool desktop. KDE is very popular as well as GNOME. You can see screenshots on their respective websites. KDE and GNOME is an attempt to replace/look like windows. quite successful - not only in look, but in memory usage, CPU usage, amount of bugs, and level of unneeded complexity, allowing user ONLY use GUI configs to do something. i think that if someone needs something like windows, windows is best choice. KDE has a cool feature that if set up allows you to pick your window manager on login (mind you this causes KDE and X windows to be running at this is not KDE feature as all, just kdm (xdm replacement). you may use gdm and possibly other xdm replacements to do it, without need to install KDE. The community can correct me if I am wrong but applications built for KDE will run fine on GNOME and vice versa. I think they just may not look as this is not true. most GNOME apps just use GTK2 and run without gnome itself fine. they are NOT dependent on any window manager, as GNOME itself. gimp is an example - i use it with fvwm2. works like any other X app. With KDE apps it's not true. while lot of KDE apps does work without KDE, they actually starts up some daemons taking 20MB RAM to function. this daemons doesn't die by itself after exiting from that apps and take quite amount of CPU time even if you don't do anything, just have app running. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: OpenOffice on a diskless workstation
Got this one figured out finally. Just need to have the following lines in rc.conf: nfs_client_enable=yes rpc_lockd_enable=yes rpc_statd_enable=yes rpcbind_enable=yes The clever bit that kept throwing me was needing to have the nfs client enabled. Once that was in play both lockd and statd actually ran. Geesh!

FreeBSD doesn't use you as an unwilling guinea pig to test out a new OS. Installing the current version isn't for the faint of heart. If you install CURRENT, that doesn't mean it is the latest production version of the OS. It's an Alpha (as in Alpha, Beta, Gamma) test release to see how it the OS responds when users start trying to do things to and with it. I'm sure that there is an official definition for the 3, but I don't ever recall seeing it, so I've made up my own which fits pretty well. FreeBSD has 3 types of distros - CURRENT, STABLE, and RELEASE. In order of increasing stability, they are: CURRENT = currently in development (Alpha) and by far the least stable of the 3 RELEASE = released to the populous at large (Beta) and fairly stable but may have some issues STABLE = well, just that, stable and the production release of the OS If you have a machine that you actually _use_, my advice is that you should definitely not run current. While you will get the same kinds of responses that you typically get from the M$ OS, it's probably not what you want a production box, hence the reason that you're using FreeBSD to begin with. We have some VERY vanilla web servers here that run 4.9, but again they are very basic and it doesn't take a whole lot to get apache and mod_perl to work properly. Since you are running VMWare and doing some unusual things with your system, you should consider rolling back at least to 4.9 and maybe even to 4.10 which is the most up-to-date STABLE distro.

ahd driver on 4.9 has problem with more than 3 drives (update)
I have an update on the problem. When I boot the machine with the -v option it boots up completely. It does dump card state and give a few other messages, but it boots up completely unlike before wherei t used to just dump card state repeatedly. I can provide you with the dmesg if needed. What do you think could be reason for that? is it stable enough to run like this (with the -v option and with those error messages) as a production server. -Pranav __ Do you Yahoo!?

Re: Your 3rd and last chance to help me with vmware
On Tuesday 20 July 2004 23:45, Thompson, Jimi wrote: If you have a machine that you actually _use_, my advice is that you should definitely not run current. While you will get the same kinds of responses that you typically get from the M$ OS, it's probably not what you want a production box, hence the reason that you're using FreeBSD to begin with. We have some VERY vanilla web servers here that run 4.9, but again they are very basic and it doesn't take a whole lot to get apache and mod_perl to work properly. Since you are running VMWare and doing some unusual things with your system, you should consider rolling back at least to 4.9 and maybe even to 4.10 which is the most up-to-date STABLE distro. Thanks for your advice - it is very sensible - but I will ignore it anyway. I've been using FreeBSD for about five years and CURRENT for most of this year and worse things have happened to me than not being able to run vmware... and I've got myself out of them, with sometimes some help from the lists or friends. And most of the time it works fine! I've got whizzy graphics, sound, apache, php, perl, usb digital camera, uncle Tom Cobbley and all, I read the UPDATING files and keep it all humming... What mystifies me slightly is why I shouldn't be allowed to ask for help if something does go wrong, especially something like this, which seemed to me as likely to do with the vmware3 port as with broken CURRENT kldload code, or whatever it eventually turns out to be. I totally understand your warnings, and ultimately I am repared to take full responsibility for any catastrophic failure and consequent data loss which takes place as a result of my egregious cheek in running CURRENT (in which case it will be my wife's opinion, rather than that of anyone on a technical list which will matter to me!). I'm not Violet Elizabeth Bott threatening to thcweam and thcweam until YOU PEOPLE FIX MY COMPUTER, god damn it, or I'll take my custom elsewhere... just a bloke who likes messing around and trying to understand how this crazy thing we call bsd works...

Installation problems
Hello all, I'm new to FreeBSD and have just installed 4.9.2 on a machine I had here. I had originally tried to install to this machine using it's onboard graphics adapter, which (I learned) had an MPact chipset which apparently nobody in the world supports, so I moved on and pulled a card from a P133 I had sitting here. The card is a Diamond Stealth Graphics card with the Ark200pv chipset on it. So far, so good, but now I'm stuck and could really use a little guidance. I'm up to the point of trying to bring up XFree86. Using xf86cfg -textmode, I've managed to get the configuration file to look as follows: --begin pasted section- Section ServerLayout Identifier Layout0 InputDeviceKeyboard0 CoreKeyboard InputDeviceMouse0 CorePointer EndSection Section Files EndSection Section Module # Load freetype # Load xtt Load extmod Load glx Load dri Load dbe Load record Load xtrap Load type1 Load speedo EndSection Section InputDevice Identifier Mouse0 Driver mouse Option Protocol SysMouse Option Emulate3Buttons Option Device /dev/sysmouse EndSection Section InputDevice Identifier Keyboard0 Driver keyboard Option XkbModel pc101 Option XkbLayout us EndSection Section Monitor Identifier Monitor0 HorizSync31.5 - 48.5 VertRefresh 50.0 - 75.0 EndSection Section Device Identifier Card0 Driver vga ChipSet ark2000pv Cardark ark2000pv EndSection Section Screen Identifier Screen0 Device Card0 MonitorMonitor0 DefaultDepth 4 SubSection Display Depth 4 Modes640x480 EndSubSection EndSection -end of paste--- But, when I attempt to execute startx, I get the following message (I've also tried it with the ark driver, with the same results): --begin pasted section- (EE) No drivers available.

Dumb perl upgrade question
This is the sort of thing I know I should know, but I don't right now... Too many other stresses... Upgraded perl from 5.8.2 to 5.8.4 (both were ports). I need to recompile a bunch of modules (for example, mod_perl). But, most of them error out because they can't find perl 5.8.2 libraries. Am I missing some environment variable somewhere or what?

RE: Courier-imap + Postfix problem
Sorry, I missed this question and have been away from the list for a bit. Hopefully you figured this out by now, but just in case, I've answered below. -Original Message- snip All i got to do now, it seems, is start portmap and fam on system boot. I know portmap_enable=YES in rc.conf does the trick, but what about starting fam? Look in /usr/local/etc/rc.d There will likely be several startup scripts in there for other services. Use one as a skeleton to start up fam. Likely, if you installed fam from ports, there will already be a startup script in that directory, it'll just need to be renamed. Many ports will put the scripts there with a -sample extension. Check to make sure that file looks in the right places for your daemon and if so, rename it to remove the -sample and it'll start up on boot. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Bind 9 answer limit question
Flaming aside, I did look for this answer in the bind docs before posting. Either I missed it, or its not there. I did see other things that reference round-robins, but not this. Right. rrset-order defines the order in which multiple records of the same type are returned, which wasn't quite the question asked (number limit). In the 9.3.x release note mentions that this (rrset-order) is implemented, somewhere else there was a note that in the 8.x code this was implemented, and in the 9 (presumably 9.2.x code) this wasn't. I'm modestly interested in the use case, never having used the MS dns implementation (or Dan's either), and I expect I'll survive the sarcasm.

how to update freebsd? newbie
