Re: cannot install KDE3 or KDE-LITE from ports

I downloaded ports.tar.gz August 26, 2004 and am currently building KDE3. I did not run into an error with that particular file, however the graphics/ImageMagick Makefile and distinfo file defined 6.0.5.3 as the version it wanted to download. There is no such version at ImageMagick.org and the

As others have eluded to, FreeBSD does not provide a windows based user interface after an installation. The graphics you do eventually setup on the system will be based upon X windows (see www.xfree86.org). Unlike Microsoft, there are numerous options for graphical windows interfaces that

You could try using the ed editor which should be located on the root partition for just this reason. Or, manually mount the usr partition when you get to the shell prompt so you have access to other editors such as vi. Hopefully you know what partition the usr file system is on (ie da0s1e)

I'd suggest using port forwarding with NATD instead since I'm assuming you are already running NAT between 192.168.1.1 and your ADSL public address. The natd man page covers port and address forwarding pretty well. On Sunday 22 August 2004 10:02 am, Henk wrote: Dear FreeBSD addict, I am

Given your current network configuration as I understand it, there's no reason for running NAT on your FBSD box so don't even go there. Is your router blocking http either inbound or outbound (port 80) ? Why aren't you using dhclient to get the ip address for all your computers dynamically

I had a similar, but different problem with 4.7 which impacted all network traffic but was most noticible using Konqueror. I was getting similar pauses regardless of the application I ran. Unless you are running BIND and attempting to get at zones that you adminster, I don't think this is a
