Keyboard disabled in X

I get a strange problem when GDM is starting. My PC is an old PII with ASUS P2B motherboard, with PS/2 keyboard and mouse. The first time X (GDM) starts up, the keyboard is disabled, while it is working in the console while booting. The mouse is working fine, but I cannot type anything, nor

Applications tracing on Debian GNU/kFreeBSD

My Debian GNU/kFreeBSD machine is getting slower everyday. I would like to start some tracing of applications (of which Perl), but no tool like strace or truss seem to be available. The only tool I found is bonnie++, but I can only diagnose disk throughput with it. Am I missing something? Should

Problem pointing /bin/sh to dash

On Debian GNU/Linux (starting from Etch), I'm used to replace the /bin/sh link to /bin/dash (points to /bin/bash by default). It fails very badly (the system is almost unusable after reboot) because /bin/mount is a shell script (from package freebsd-utils) using exec -a (exec is a shell builtin),

Building Network-Manager

I'm still working from time to time on a working GNOME on Debian GNU/kFreeBSD Sid. The blocking issue I get now is that there is a build-dependency on libnl for n-m. Libnl is indeed closely tied to Netlink (so Linux-specific). Anyone working on this? May I help somewhat? Regards -- Jérôme

Building latest GNOME

Hi guys, It's really hard to refrain from crying when your beloved GNOME is not installable on Debian GNU/kFreeBSD Sid for a long time. Don't get me wrong: I do not just want to be the only person on Earth to be able to install GNOME on its PC. I would like to make it a breeze for anybody to do

ifconfig error message on shutdown

Hi guys, Yet another problem needing a fix: On shutdown, ifdown is trying to call ifconfig with -i parameter, which does not exist on BSD's ifconfig and spits out an ugly error message. As ifdown is a compiled binary, I cannot easily fix it myself or propose a suitable patch. Hope it helps --
