Also a dmseg and a copy of rc.conf might help. ifconfig will show what is going on with your network card. You should never have to restart your whole computer, sounds like it could be a config, or more likely a hardware problem.

Xfree86 help required since upgrade.
Hi, I recently upgraded Xfree4 via portupgrade (portupgrade -a) and I now have a problem. It appears X will only work in 8-bit mode. Before, my XF86Config specified the default bit depth as 24 and X was fine. Now X fails to start at anything over 8-bit... I mean, it starts... it just hangs after a lot of disk activity. Briefly, I'm running FreeBSD 4.X-Stable on a PC with an nvidia card and the nvidia driver from /usr/ports/x11/nvidia-driver and the latest version of Xfree4 from ports. I appreciate the nvidia driver is beta and could be the root cause of this problem but I've been using that driver for some time with no problems so far. I'm definitely no X-pert. I can work my way through an XF86Config file and X error log but that's about it. Nothing I can immediately identify in /var/log/Xfree86.0.log to cause the problem (that's not to say there isn't something in there). My question is: a) Is there anyone out there willing to help me resolve this? b) What information (hardware, config files) do you need to help me out? Let me know, by reply individually if you don't want to spam the list and I'll send everything relevant in one go. Thanks a lot, Phil. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
