Re : Re: building gnome2 on freebsd6-stable
thanks for replying. No, I actually did not have gnome installed, as I'm running fluxbox but may be I had some sub-gnome ports installed that I didn't notice and that are responsible for the build failure. May be I should uninstall all *gnome* ports and restart.

Go to http://www.freebsd.org/gnome. There is an upgrade script there. I used it partially, it got me about half way. Turned out that I had an ethernet speed/duplex issue much of the time, and was having trouble downloading. After a day of manually downloading (ftp worked, fetch, which is used by the script had trouble) and restarting the script, I gave up on it and used portmanager. That worked better, but still had a couple of issues. About this time, I got the duplex issue fixed on the switch, and then went back to /usr/ports/x11/gnome2 and from there everything worked. The problem is that you'll get out of order with dependancies if you just start in /usr/ports/x11/gnome2. I'm having one problem with gnome 2.12. The screensaver won't start up. It complains about not being able to contact the messagebus. Any help here?

applying the vesa patch to stable for high console resolution
Hi, USE AT YOUR OWN RISK! this for the freebsd5 branch only Here is how to apply the patch to get the long awaited high console text modes under freebsd! I actually use it on my nc6000 hp laptop with the following mode: 1400x1050x16 damm .. really nice ;-)) This patch is actually for freebsd current but it works (for me) with 5-stable and may be release or earlier versions (5.X) too. ONCE AGAIN BE WARNED!! USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!!! Let's go: 1) Get the patch here: http://people.freebsd.org/~delphij/vesa/patchset-highres.20050522 2) Remove the lines which are not required for us and rename the patch we will use to syscons.patch: split -p Index: usr.sbin patchset-highres.20050522 mv xaa syscons.patch 3) backup and patch your local (stable) sources: (/usr/src/sys/dev/syscons - will be patched) cp -Rp /usr/src/sys/dev/syscons /usr/src/sys/dev/BAK.syscons cd /usr/src patch path_to_patch/syscons.patch 4) recompile and install your kernel with sc_pixel_mode and vesa support see handbook for details! http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html 5) backup your vidcontrol sources cp -Rp /usr/src/usr.sbin/vidcontrol /usr/src/usr.sbin/BAK.vidcontrol 6) update your vidcontrol sources with the current/HEAD vidcontrol sources cd /usr/src cvs [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/ncvs co -rHEAD usr.sbin/vidcontrol 7) recompile vidcontrol and install cd /usr/src/usr.sbin/vidcontrol make clean make all make install 8) reboot 9) after having rebooted with your new kernel (with sc_pixel_mode and vesa) issue a vidcontrol -i mode You will get lots of ouput like this: 322 (0x142) 0x000f G 1400x1050x16 1 8x16 0xa 64k 64k 0x9800 65472k Test the mode in a shell by issuying: vidcontrol MODE_322 If it works (I hope for you ;-)) but your corresponding mode in rc.conf like this: allscreens_flags=MODE_322 VoilĂ :-)) Long live freebsd ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
matrox parhelia and hauppauge pvr350 questions
Hi, I would like to migrate my main workstation from windowsxp to freebsd 5.4-stable (I run a few free- and openbsd machines on a few servers and a laptop) I use a matrox parhelia 128mb (dual DVI) agp card which is connected to 2 LCD screens. I also run a Hauppauge PVR350 TV card to watch TV on my PC. I've a few questions: 1) Does someone run a matrox parhelia in Xorg 6.8.2 with freebsd5.x, what's your comment on it? 2) Is multi-screen (Xinerama) working with this card? 3) Is someone using hauppauge pvr350 TV card to watch tv in freebsd? 4) Is tv watching with the pvr somewhat user-friendly?

tcpwrappers problem
Hi, (using freebsd5.4-stable) I'm trying to display a ftpd banner with hosts.allow, but it doesn't work. I'm using ftpd (/usr/libexec/ftpd) started through inetd. Ined is started with standard flags: /usr/sbin/inetd -wW -C 60 In hosts.allow I have: ALL : ALL : allow ALL : ALL : banners /usr/local/etc/banners/ ALL : PARANOID : RFC931 20 : deny In /usr.../banners/ I've a banner called: ftpd and inetd and ftp etc.. copied the banner to different names to be sure ... ;-) The directory is world r-x and the banners are world readable. When changing for example: ALL:ALL:allow to ALL:ALL:deny, ftpd connections are blocked, so I assume the wrappers work. Why isn't my banner displayed? thanks didier ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
RE: tcpwrappers problem
Damm ... ;-)) yes that's it thanks a lot didier At first glance, I would say because you have an ALL : ALL : allow before you have your ALL : ALL : banners /usr/local/etc/banners/ ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
