Thanks for your help. You could get the latest sources with svcup, and do a make, make install in ^ /usr/src/games/fortune Is that a new one on me or do you mean 'cvsup' -- which has been replaced with 'csup'? That would be the recommended way to update your ports tree. You want to use the directive: ports-all tag=. in your supfile to pull in the latest ports tree - which is the only one since it is not branched like the main OS. Actually, you should to a full update of the OS and ports tree at the same time and then build and install all the system before installing the ports.It doesn't actually take very long any more on recently built 1,000+ MHz hardware which is so much faster than in the good old days of 80 MHz CPUs. jerry cvsup, sorry typo ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

When switching from console to X, mousebuffer gets pasted
When i switch from my console to xorg (alt-F9) my mousebuffer gets automaticly pasted. (xorg) For instance: I open an xterm, type some text and select it.

Character 208 acts strangs in console, when moving mouse
When i display character 208 in my console and move my mouse, i see the strangest things. FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE-p8, with default screenmap and console settings. http://www.xs4all.nl/~whendrik/download/mouse wget and cat that file in a console to see the effect. I tried it on my laptop and desktop PC with same kernel. Anyone else experience this problem/effect? I think it should be a pi character upside down, mostly used to draw tables in combination with other characters... ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
PaX in FreeBSD like grsecurity and OpenBSD
OpenBSD has: Memory protection purify * W^X * .rodata segment * Guard pages * Randomized malloc() * Randomized mmap() * atexit() and stdio protection In grsecurity there is PaX: http://pax.grsecurity.net/ Can these features really prevent some exploits? I tried to search equivalants in FreeBSD.

My system: FreeBSD 6.1-RELEASE with xorg installed and working correctly. dmesg output: http://www.xs4all.nl/~whendrik/dmesg I use 'portmanager' all the time; however, I do not avail myself of the pkgtool.conf file, preferring to use the pm-020.conf file instead. Are you sure about the syntax of the pkgtools.conf file? Obviously the problem lies there. You could just try commenting out that section, or just renaming the file entirely -- portmanager will then ignore it -- and try rebuilding the port again. The files is a standard file which i didn't touched. I did not knew the small importantce of those lines, i commented them out and no more error message.. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
