Re: Installing wget

Re: Does FreeBSD run on 32-bit sparcs (V8)?
Yuri schrieb: When I look at FreeBSD distribution I only see sparc64 (which I guess implies V9). When I look at LLVM compiler sources they define V8 as a 32-bit target and V9 as 64-bit target.

Frank Not really in the base system, although you can install them using sysinstall as said above and they are still available in the installation media. The advantage of having the documentation as ports (or packages) is they get upgraded with portupgrade. So the local docs are not now a static snapshot of what was available when the RELEASE was done, but rather an evolving set of packages that can be upgraded along with anything else. There is a continuing effort of improving (and translating) the documentation and it is good to always be able to have the latest available locally if you wish. (Please note the change in path, as these are now packages they are installed in /usr/local/share/doc) OK, I noticed that and I agree with your argumentation. Now I can go to bed and sleep well :-).

What kind of error do you get when you try e.g. 'man portmaster'? It might be that your manual pages setup is broken. I get the message No manual entry for portmaster, but using your command I can read it. man man e. g. works perfectly. But there comes up another question (or two): How can I use it with all ports/packages?

Any ideas, folks? Or should I post something more?
may I ask how exactly you did the update? As it has mentioned
before, the handbook (even the german version) gives a good
routeplan for this.
In general:
# cd /usr/src
# make update
# make buildworld buildkernel KERNCONF=GRISSOM
# make installkernel KERNCONF=GRISSOM
# reboot
boot -s
fsck and mount -a
# cd /usr/src
# mergemaster -p
# make installworld
# mergemaster
# reboot
(Hope that's correct from my mind, check handbook anyway.)FreeBSD

18 21:36:57 CET 2009
r...@grissom.einundvierzig.org:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GRISSOM amd64
Note that the configuration files mentioned above usually employ
the make update command from within /usr/src. Kernel and world
have to be the same version.
Oh yes, and check your /boot/loader.conf if eventually a previous
kernel is loaded, maybe you stored a spare kernel in /boot and
the loader loads this, instead of /boot/kernel/kernel? Just to be
sure... I mention this because I had a spare 6.0-GENERIC kernel
saved in /boot, a setting in /boot/loader.conf for some testing,
then updated the system (which affected /boot/kernel/kernel,
but not /boot/kernel/kernel.GENERIC which was instead loaded). :-)
I did it now the way you told me but it still shows 7.0-Release at
uname -a. I attach my make.conf and cvs-supfile' maybe there is
something wrong?

Did you install X setuid root? If you're using xdm(1) or one of the other similar display managers that are started out of ttys(5) then X is started by a root process anyhow, and doesn't need to be setuid. If you intend to use startx(1) then X needs to be setuid for mortal users to be able to start it. To change the setting: make config in /usr/ports/x11-servers/xorg-server and then reinstall the xorg-server port. Cheers, Matthew I don't know for sure. In /etc/make.conf is nothing written that X should be setuid root and that must be the place, or not? Anyway, I want X to be started through a tty like it worked, so I have no intention to change it now that it functions.
