The gpart syntax looks correct, and ad0 is being used elsewhere in your install 
process successfully. Is this a fresh disk / image? Perhaps something has 
broken in the gpart command?

Hi,

I noticed that in PC-BSD 8 firefox is nicely integrated into KDE.
Anybody knows how to achieve this on FreeBSD 8?

I believe you mean that you need KDE to open Firefox whenever you click
on a link. That's easy. From your KDE menu, open "System Settings" (in
the first tab, "favorites")
Then select "Default Applications". Then, in the left list of the
applications, choose "Web browser", and at the right part of the screen
choose the radio button "in the following browser" and in the edit box
enter the "/usr/local/bin/firefox3". Then apply the new settings.

Another trick that PC-BSD useswhich might be more of what you are

  asking about is the installation of a port called
  x11-themes/gtk-qt4-engine  This port allows gtk applications to be
  displayed using qt, which helps integrate the look of things like FF,
  Thunderbird, OOo with KDE.


I already installed the gtk-qt4-engine, but it has some serious bugs.
Scroll bars are not painted, tab borders are painted at the wrong
position, etc. Could this be because I modified some of KDEs appearance
options?



The gtk-qt4-engine works great here, not run into those problems you 
describe. Check the gtk-qt4-engine configuration gui in KDE4's system 
settings though, there is a fix you can enable to fix scrollbar issues.




Are there any other integration tweaks, like icons, keyboard shortcuts,
file chooser dialog, ... ?


We've not modified anything else like that, just standard stuff.


Thanks,
Anselm

Question about x64 and running x86 programs

[Kris Moore]

Hi there!

I'm currently working on a port of PC-BSD for AMD64 systems. Everything 
looks and works great, but i've run into a snag with running x86 
binaries on the platform. All the kernel options for compat are enabled, 
and some simple "C" programs will run, but if I try to run a bigger 
program, with QT for X, then I get errors like this:


/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: /usr/X11R6//lib/libqt-mt.so.3: unsupported file layout

I figure this is because the libraries are compiled for x64, and the 
binary is x86. No big deal. I then have attempted overriding the library 
path by setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH to some alternate directory with the x86 
libraries in it. This does not work also, matter afact, it completely 
ignores the LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable like it doesnt exist. I've messed 
with the ldconfig program also, but can't quite seem to figure this one 
out.


Is there another LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable that 32 bit binaries look for? 
Or is it even possible to do what i'm attempting here?
