odd thing with make/gmake/su

[Sabri Berisha]

Hi,

I have an odd thing here. I have a very simple makefile:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# cat Makefile 
blah:
@echo hoi
@su sabri -c echo hoi2
@echo hoi3
@su sabri -c echo hoi4

but when I do a make or gmake, I it gets a stop signal after the third
command:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# make
hoi
hoi2
hoi3

[2]+  Stopped make
[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# fg
make
hoi4
[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# 

I run 5.1-RELEASE-p11 on i386. Does anyone have a clue what is going on
here?

console to serial on -current

[Sabri Berisha]

Hi all,

First of all my apologies for this utterly stupid question. 

I'm trying to get my console at boot time to sio0, but whatever I put in
/boot.config or /boot/loader.conf it simply refuses. It's quite obvious
that I'm doing something wrong, but what? The man pages aren't very
helpful. Does anyone have an idea how I can fix this? 

The serial connection itself works, after boot I get a nice serial
console. I just need to have the kernel debugger on a serial console so
I can fix panics from home. 

Thanks,

*pfew* saved myself.

echo 'console=comconsole'  /boot/loader.conf 

did the trick.

FreeBSD on a new HP Pavilion ZE43xx

[Sabri Berisha]

Hi all,

Does anyone have positive experience installing FreeBSD on a HP Pavilion
series? I just bought byself a ZE4355EA today and I have a hard time
installing A Decent OS. 

Problems I encounter are the well-known ACPI problems (but I worked
around this) and my biggest problem is the X video driver for the Radeon
Mobility card. Does anyone have any hints on how to fix this?

Thanks,

XFree86 - font problems in 1600x1200

[Sabri Berisha]

Hi all,

I recently upgraded my antique 4.2 to 4.8-RC2. Unfortunately, I get
*huge* fonts in X. I have tried about anything I could come up with to
fix this (include copying the old fonts dir, randomly hacking in the
alias files, commenting out fontpaths etc). I've spend about 3 evenings
googling for a solution and I've tried usenet. Anyone able to come up
with a solution?

Thanks,
