Error building OpenEXR
Attempting to upgrade the ports on my machine, and following (or trying to follow) UPDATING, an error accurs on the upgrade of OpenEXR. This made a lot of KDE ports fail. gmake[1]: *** [imfexamples] Error 1 gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/ports/graphics/OpenEXR/work/openexr-1.6.0/IlmImfExamples' gmake: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 *** Error code 2 Stop in /usr/ports/graphics/OpenEXR. ** Command failed [exit code 1]: /usr/bin/script -qa /tmp/portupgrade.69205.29 env UPGRADE_TOOL=portupgrade UPGRADE_PORT=OpenEXR-1.2.2_1 UPGRADE_PORT_VER=1.2.2_1 make ** Fix the problem and try again.

lpr on KDE
When trying to print from KDE applications, I get the following error: /usr/local/bin/lpr: Connection refused This is on a new install of 6.2-RELEASE. KDE was installed from a package during install. Printing works fine from the commandline as root and user. Googling around, one suggested fix was to recompile /usr/ports/x11/kdelibs3 with WITHOUT_CUPS. I ran make -DWITHOUT_CUPS install and that went quite well. I rebooted the machine just to make sure everything restarted. Still no joy trying to print with KDE. Any suggestions as to the next step? Would making some sort of link between /usr/local.bin.lpr and /usr/bin/lpr work?

AC97 sound support
I've just installed 5.1 -RELEASE on my new machine, a HP a350n. For sound this computer uses onboard RealTek AC97 Audio. I went throught the normal installation steps, then ran the steps for soundcard configuration in the manual. I ran kldload. I recompiled the kernel with 'device pcm'. I tried 'options PNPBIOS', at which point I received a message about an unkown option. dmesg | grep pci gives me this line: pci0: multimedia, audio at device 31.5 (no driver attached) dmesg | grep pcm returns nothing. This has all been seen on this list before. I searched c.u.b.f.m and -questions and have seen this come up before, but I never saw a resolution. My question is: Does all this mean the FreeBSD does not support onboard Realtek AC97 Audio? I'd just like to know before I go out and buy a soundcard. It is not that I'm cheap, I just like finding out how FreeBSD works. :-) However it looks like a Soundblaster Live is the answer.

using use.perl
I'm running 4.7-RELEASE as my home desktop. I've compiled perl 5.8 from the ports. It was installed in /usr/local/bin/perl. After that installation # perl -v resulted in perl, version 5.005_3 # /usr/local/bin/perl -v resulted in perl, v 5.8.0 If I call /usr/local/bin/perl in my scripts, I realize that the new version will be used. However after running the command # use.perl port, I wonder if old scripts that call /usr/bin/perl will be interpreted under v 5.8.0. If there was a symbolic link placed between /usr/local/bin/perl and /usr/bin/perl which version would be used? Thanks for straightening out my confusion.

sendmail config for desktop
I am running 4.7-RELEASE. When I installed freeBSD I made the localhost
name fuzz.
I am now attempting to get mutt running on this computer.
I cannot send email to the outside world. My email is rejected because
the doamin part of the address includes the localhost name fuzz. So
instead of [EMAIL PROTECTED], which is what the ISP expects, mail
is sent out as being from [EMAIL PROTECTED].
In one attempt to get things working, I edited freebsd.mc in a couple of
places. I defined 'SMART_HOST' as my isp, and included a line
MASQUERADE_AS('socal.rr.com'). I did make cf, and make install. After
running sendmail -q it gives me an error message in sendmail.cf line
66: unknown configuration line \n
I used ee editor to go to line 66 and deleted what was apparently blank.
Now when I run sendmail -q it's as though nothing occurs, I don't even
get a mail message telling me my email was rejected.
How can I remove fuzz from my address? Dynamite? I have very little hair
left, and this day has been really rough on what is left. It's being
ripped out in big chunks. Sendmail documentation seems to be setup for
server configuration. I have not been able to find anything for a
standalone desktop that answers these questions. I've spent two days
studying about and configuring mutt. Should I just stick with kmail?
Thanks, I really needed to vent!

A few things to try: - Is the keyboard port hardware actually OK? Make sure you can at least use it to get into the machine's BIOS setup screens. Note that PS/2 keyboards shouldn't be hot-plugged -- you can easily kill the port doing that. Try another keyboard if possible. The keyboard works in the BIOS part of the boot. I can get into UserConfig with it, but after FreeBSD takes over the boot it no longer works. And after configuring the kernel with UserConfig it works fine. I am using it to type this message. It is only when I do not interrupt the boot process that the keyboard does not work. - Boot a GENERIC kernel. It's got everything you need for both PS/2 and USB keyboards. There should be no harm in having them both enabled. The kernel that I am booting now has both enabled (I think) thusly: # atkbdc0 controls both the keyboard and the PS/2 mouse device atkbdc0 at isa? port IO_KBD device atkbd0 at atkbdc? irq 1 flags 0x1 device psm0at atkbdc? irq 12 and thus: # USB support device uhci# UHCI PCI-USB interface device ohci# OHCI PCI-USB interface device usb # USB Bus (required) device ugen# Generic device uhid# Human Interface Devices device ukbd# Keyboard device ulpt# Printer device umass # Disks/Mass storage - Requires scbus and da device ums # Mouse device uscanner# Scanners device urio# Diamond Rio MP3 Player - Post your /etc/rc.conf, /var/run/dmesg.boot and anything that looks relevant from /var/log/messages. There may be a clue in there as to why the keyboard isn't working. The rc.conf file is a little messy, perhaps there is a conflict of some sort here?

Re: newbie mail help
- Original Message - From: Mike Meyer [EMAIL PROTECTED] You're right - most of the documentation is geared towards setting up a server. That's because that's the difficult part, and setting up as just a client depends on which of the many clients you've chosen. Basically, what you need to do is choose a client, and then follow the directions on configuring it. That should do the trick. If you like OE, then possibly you want to use Netscape Communicator or Mozilla as a client. Install those from the ports, then use the preferences menus to enter your ISP's host names for the SMTP and POP servers. If you want a command-line client, mutt and pine are popular and available in the ports. There are also other GUI clients available in the ports; look in /usr/ports/mail to see what's there. Finally, I use VM, which is a mail program that runs inside of Emacs. If you use emacs, you might want to give it a look. I apologize for posting with OE. No need to apologies - the mail came through nicely formatted, as plain text only.

Couldn't POP mail just be gotten in the normal way with e.g. kmail or netscape or mozilla? The above will allow you to use all manner of *nix email clients, but have you tried just setting up (say) mozilla mail or kmail in the normal fashion? Just a thought - JB # John Bleichert # http://vonbek.dhs.org/latest.jpg I've been trying to use the command line as much as possible in seting up FreeBSD. I hope that this will give me a better understanding of the OS, however this is quite a task. So I have not tried to setup one of the desktop mail clients. I do need my email functioning however, and I am going to try to setup Balsa now. Whatever I read about sendmail just makes my poor head spin. It is like reading a foreign language.

newbie fetchmail help
Thanks to the readers of this group I can now send mail with Pine. I am doing something wrong with my fetchmail configuration, however. I am not even sure where to start troubleshooting. My .fetchmail.log file reads, in part: fetchmail: sleeping at Sun Jan 19 2003 fetchmail: 43 messages for gwschenk at orangca-mls05.socal.rr.com (17784 octets) fetchmail: reading message [EMAIL PROTECTED] fetchmail: fetchmail: getaddrinfo(localhost.smtp) fetchmail: SMTP connection to localhost failed fetchmail: transaction error while fetching from pop-server.socal.rr.com fetchmail: Query status=10 (SMTP) Have I configured something incorrectly? I'm suspicious that my email address and the account name I log onto my computer with have some sort of conflict in fetchmail or perhaps sendmail. I've gone over .fetchmailrc, freebsd.mc and the Pine configuration screen, but don't see any mistakes there. Is there another location to look?

newbie mail help
I've been installing FreeBSD on my home desktop. A little each day I spend configuring. I've worked out most things with books and man pages. I am connected to the internet by cable modem.
