Hi,
Last week I was at USENIX where Niels Provos talked about his
implementation of encrypted swap in OpenBSD. What is does is
encrypting all memory that gets swapped out, keeping the encryption
keys in memory. A test showed that all kinds of interesting things
wind up in the swap partition; Nie

Where did you get this sysinstall from, is in on a boot floppy ?
If it is, then either the kernel with it's devices doesn't work
with the sysinstall you use, or the devices do not exist.
On your PC, do a make depend ; make ; make instal

I found 'mono' audio was broken on my Yamaha 724F PCI card
at the weekend.
Cameron said several users have reported this and he has
reworked the code in -current to hopefully work around
this problem.

I did a buildworld Sunday, and started to get kernel panics on boot when
it probed fxp. So I removed fxp from my kernel and loaded it as a

The `building everything' stage of make buildworld is dying as below.
The following patch fix lets my buildworld get beyond that point (but
it's still running so I don't know if there are problems elsewhere).
(I don't think the patch is the right fix, but it solved my immediate
problem).

The one that's there now should fix this (I forgot to include a 1-line

There is a non-trivial Perl5 LOCALBASE problem that I'm trying to
