Re: Dependency problem: atk-1.0.901
Hi Lowell Thanks for the help so far. At the moment I'm actually cvsuping to RELENG_4 to see if I can install the port after a buildworld. It's not that I'm giving up on RELENG_5 so much as I'm just interested to see if this solves the problem, or if I still run into a dependency issue. Also, I'm a sucker for punishment. I'll let you know how I get on. Regards Bnonn Lowell Gilbert wrote: Bnonn [1][EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: Hi Lowell, thanks for your comments...I'm not trying to install via a package.

When the make install runs, it recognizes atk 1.6.1 and has no problem with it, but then bails out later saying it can't find 1.0.91. I think we'll need to see the exact error messages. Yes, I ran cvsup on all ports, and the system, from cvsup.freebsd.org (I think that's the correct address). Had no problems doing this. Okay, so you should be up to date. I'll check uname -r when I get home and see if there appears to be a problem there. Unfortunately, that should be fine. You had me confused by talking about packages.

You could just install gtk2 from the ports instead of from a package, and then it will use whatever atk you have installed. If you install from a package, then obviously you need the same version installed that the package was linked against. I'm running FreeBSD 5.4 and have tried updating via cvs etc, without any Do you mean you updated via cvsup? Or if you actually mean cvs, then where was the cvs repository, and how do you know it was up-to-date? Which collections do you update? luck. It seems strange to me that this dependency problem would exist, as surely a lot of people install GTK2, if not XFCE. Does anyone know of a way to get around this? I'd sort of like to have a gui for my machine :) Note that 5.4 hasn't been released yet, so if you are trying to match the packages against the system, you need to make sure that the packages area still matches your system's release level (uname -r), as it has gone from 5.4-PRERELEASE to 5.4-BETA1, so the 5.4-PRERELEASE directory path no longer exists on the FTP servers.

Re: Adaptec AAC raid support
Theo, I'd like to make a comment as a new user in this community: I think BSD is great. I don't care what flavor you're talking about; I think they're great. I use FreeBSD, but I have great respect for OpenBSD and the others, and it was a hard choice deciding which to run. However, when I see TOP_FREEBSD_MEMBER_1 saying TOP_OPENBSD_MEMBER_1 is full of crap, and then TOP_OPEN_BSD_MEMBER_1 comes back and says How dare you and starts antagonizing TOP_FREEBSD_MEMBER_1 (on the FreeBSD mailing list, in fact; in full view of everyone, instead of privately), it makes me wonder, how the hell is this community ever going to get taken seriously? Heck, how's it going to keep going if the top members are volatile, vitriolic children who can't keep personal attacks out of what should be a purely technical or philosophical debate? So, for love of all that's civil, do you think you could tone it down a bit, or at least take your personal hatred of each other out of a public mailing list where it has no place?

Re: Question
Actually, I wouldn't mind knowing the answer to this either. What is CD2 for? I've never had occasion to use it.

Re: Page-up in tcsh?
Just goes to show why you should have a decent understanding of the difference between an interpreter and an emulator. Having not grown up on such things, I basically never even realized there was a distinction. Also didn't realize why there was a scroll lock key until now.

Re: Clock slew vulnerability in FreeBSD?
Is this technically a vulnerability, or is it just a side-effect of how computers operate? I was of the impression that this is quite an unavoidable issue, given how it seems to apply to any computer regardless of OS, but I haven't researched the issue much myself. Interesting question.

Make buildworld and reboot
Hi everyone. I recently let a make buildworld run overnight following updating source, and came back in the morning to find that the process had completed successfully, but that my keyboard had gone completely dead. I don't know why this happened, but it might have something to do with having a USB keyboard. Anyway, I couldn't run make installworld following this since the keyboard was no-go, so I was forced to hard-reboot. Not knowing a great deal about what make buildworld really does, I'm not sure if the changes it effects are persistent through a reboot. Do I need to run make buildworld again before running make installworld? I've skimmed the manpages on make, but they seem directed to the sort of people who want to create makefiles, rather than just run them, and I thought I could probably get the quick and dirty answer here without having to resort to three days of study :) Your help is appreciated Bnonn ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
cvsup Premature EOF error
Hello again everyone. Another problem; nothing really that's an issue, but something I'm curious if anyone knows the cause of. When running csvup to cvsup.nz.freebsd.org, I get the following error the first time I run cvsup (full command I'm using is cvsup -L 2 /root/scarlet.cvs): Premature EOF from server. Will retry at CURRENT_TIME + 5 MIN Anyone know why I might be getting this? Canceling the five minute wait and rerunning cvsup immediately afterward works fine. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
