Error in /boot/defaults/loader.conf?

2001-09-11 Thread walt
kern.module_path seems to be incorrect in my fresh install of -CURRENT. As a result, kernel modules are not loading. This value is set in /boot/defaults/loader.conf as module_path=/boot/kernel;/boot/modules;/modules but apparently should read:

mozilla and gnome apps won't run after KSE [June 29]

2002-06-29 Thread walt
Following make world make kernel after the KSE update I find that mozilla and any gnome app will suck up 98% of the CPU and will never actually write anything to the display. No crashes, no error messages, they just chew up cycles. I don't have KDE installed on my -current machine, so I can't

Dunno if this is important, but I meant to mention it in my initial problem report: the problem with gnome and mozilla chewing up CPU cycles begain just after the make world finished and while the make kernel was still compiling, so whatever this problem is it was not due to changes in the

openoffice is compiling again!...but won't run.

2002-07-11 Thread walt
I just finished compiling and installing openoffice on yesterday's -current, thanks to the stat.h patch from Bruce. Unfortunately, the 'setup' program segfaults just like it did two months ago. This was fixed in -stable with Matt's patch for rtld-elf, but that patch won't apply in -current.

About the recent kernel crashes.

2002-07-26 Thread walt
A small observation which I hope will be useful: I started getting unexpected lockups during mozilla sessions after remaking world kernel on the evening of July 25. The screen would freeze completely, followed a few seconds later by a spontaneous reboot. After this happened twice I deleted

Removing INET6 does stop the crashes.

2002-07-28 Thread walt
After reading Scott Long's recent post I tried removing INET6 from my kernel config and the crashes due to mozilla are now definitely gone. The question remains, I suppose, whether there are other programs that will still trigger the same kernel bug in a different way, or whether the bug truly

net.inet6.ip6.v6only = 0 also stops the crashes.

2002-07-28 Thread walt
Well, being a bit suspicious, I put INET6 back in the kernel and tried it again. What I find is that the crashes stop as long as net.inet6.ip6.ip6only is set to zero. When I set it to one the crashes continue as before: When trying to fetch mail with mozilla I get error messages that the

Booting problem in -CURRENT?

I decided to copy my -current from the second ide disk to the first ide disk because it's a faster disk. So I basically just made a new partition with a new filesystem and copied everything over to the new partition on the first disk. I edited fstab and /boot/loader.conf to correct for the new

mozilla regchrome problem is back?

I feel like I stepped into a time warp with -current. I'm getting the old problem building mozilla where it coredumps in regchrome. This was solved back in June and my present mozilla was built on Aug 01 with no problem, so I just took a big step backwards. Anyone else seeing this problem
