Re: Java without Motif/X?
OK, thanks very much. I'm going to look for a different tool that doesn't pull in all of Java. you've all been a great help. best, -Nick Hello Michael, On 02/02/06 Nikolas Britton said: Is it possible to replace Motif with QT, GTK, etc? Not with the swing bindings, I don't think so. But, there are GTK bindings for Java separately.

Java without Motif/X?
Greetings, Has anyone successfully gotten Java (1.4 or 1.5) running on FreeBSD without Motif/X? I'd like to run a gui-less Java app on my server, and would strongly prefer to not install all of X + Motif, and all its potential security issues, just to get Java running.

Answering machine / voicemail -- email?
Hi all, I'm running a decently fast server with FreeBSD 5.4. I'd like to set up a way that the box can act as a voicemail server, and turn the messages into emails. I see Asterisk as a possible solution, but it seems awfully heavyweight for what I want. Are there any lighter-weight ways to achieve this? If Asterisk is the way to go, what's the cheapest modem card I can buy (for a PCI Express-based Dell SC 420) that can answer the phone, and let the machine receive these calls? It's for use in my home, so it's only 1 analog phone line running into the house right now. thanks, -Nick ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
jdk15 without having to install X Windows?
Hi, I'm trying to install JDK15 (from ports: java/jdk15) on a server that does not have X Windows installed. It appears from the Makefile that Java is dependent upon OpenMotif, which in turn is dependent upon a bunch of X client libs. Does anyone have experience with installing Java without any X windows support? I'd like the keep the number of installed packages on this server to a bare minimum. thanks, -Nick ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Support for Alviso (Intel i915) chipset networking?

Error writing disk when using fdisk from sysinstall
Hi, I'm running FreeBSD 5.1-RELEASE on a modern (~8mo old) PC. I am trying to add a new Western Digital 200GB IDE drive to my system (through a Promise Ultra DMA100 controller), and when I try to (W)rite changes to the disk, I get an error dialog box saying ERROR: Unable to write to disk ad4!, then Disk Partition write returned an error status. When I first start the fdisk gui from sysinstall, it complains about the geometry (37621C/16H/63S) and tries to correct it to 24321C/255H/63S (though the original is the correct geometry). I am unable to set the geometry, when I try to change it back, I get the error that it's set incorrectly. From my boot messages, here's the disk and IDE controller card I'm using. atapci1: Promise PDC20268 UDMA100 controller port 0xc400-0xc40f,0xc000-0xc003,0xbc00-0xbc07,0xb800-0xb803,0xb400-0xb407 mem 0xe800-0xe8003fff irq 11 at device 12.0 on pci0 ad4: 190782MB WDC WD2000JB-34EVA0 [387621/16/63] at ata2-master UDMA100 Anyone have any ideas?
