Problem with wireless network.
On my windows OS I can connect to the router, and also get DHCP service. On the same computer, running FreeBSD 7.0 It will not get DHCP service. Sometimes it will connect to the router, but does not get DHCP service. Then it will not connect anymore. This same computer, using the same FreeBSD used to connect to the interent, and I could go surfing. Now it only times out. I have a fresh install of FreeBSD 7.0, and can not solve this problem.

timidity server, on FreeBSD, for wine.
I can't seem to get timidity to act like I want it to, can someone help me out? Want I need is a /dev/sequencer, and I wanted to use timidity to emulate it. It's so I can use it with wine, midi. It's the midi support i am looking for. --- In Love in Jesus Christ, Or Lord and Savior.

Wine security question...
Is it possible to use wine in a secure way? I had a warning about it after installing it from the ports. So I was wondering if it's possible to limit it to a certain area. Like a sandbox?

Problem in FreeBSD 7.x, in Xorg switching consoles.
When I switch from my Xorg running KDE, for some reason it pushes a string as keypresses to the KDE. I do not know if it's on return, or on exit. Here is my setup! On tty3 is my Xorg KDE desktop. On tty8 is a getty login. I use alt+ctrl+f8 to enter the login screen on tty8. I then switch back by using alt+ctrl+f3, and enter the KDE desktop. But then for some reason something crazy happens. If i was using the konqueror web browser, the address would get replaced and it would go to a bogus website. So I decided to put up a blank text pad in kedit to see what happens. What I get is a url string is pushed to the pad. I believe this happens when coming back to the Desktop KDE. In Love in Jesus Christ, Or Lord and Savior.

curses.h, beep() returns ERR, flash() casuses segment fault.
I do not get the OK from beep, and flash crashes the program.
This is my code:
#include
int main(int argc,char** argv)
{
if(beep()!=OK)
printf("No OK\n"); fflush(stdout);
if(flash()!=OK)
printf("No Flash\n"); fflush(stdout);
return 0;
}

alogg problem! I was in the middle of writing a game on Windows, but now I am using FreeBSD...
I was writing a game in Windows using allegro. Now that I no longer have windows, I need a solution to the alogg library. It does not seem to be ported on FreeBSD. allegro should be find, but my problem is replacing, or getting alogg for FreeBSD. alogg is a library add-on to allegro, for playing .ogg files.

Possible hardware damaging bug with halt/reboot!
I think this thing could break my fan if I left it running. The fan gets fast, really fast. Sounds like it's running faster than it can handle. This is using the halt command, during the message that say's, HALTED, PRESS ANY KEY TO REBOOT. (not actual message) I am still looking in the source code hunting for this. I decided it was best to report now. I have not seen the loop, but adding sleep(1) in the halt loop, such as a while loop, I think that would make it easier on the cpu. However I do not know how it works, because I have not seen that source code. In Love in Jesus Christ, Or Lord and Savior.

Binary Downloads: Security Questions and problem.
When using FreeBSD, I cannot browse the internet because I keep getting binary files instead of the url. These binary files are 588k in size, I think they are viruses, which also means my LAN is infected with some stuff. The binary file names seem to have random names, because they are new each time.

Security problems, I think I have a hacker attacker.
I think someone is attempting to get into my system. Here is my details: There are 2 login failuers on ttyv0, And also 2 login failers on ttyv0 root. I did not try login in on that terminal. Are they able to try to do it away from my computer, from a remote location? Can someone tell me how to turn off the broadcast option for my lan, if it's possible.

Re: Is it possible to run i386 only, on a amd64 freebsd 7?
Sean Cavanaugh <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > he was asking about ports that are labled as "i386 only" "Well, he didn't mention building ports. He only said *running* i386 software on amd64, which is certainly possible. Whether "i386 only" packages will run on amd64 depends on the reason why they're marked as such. If they contain kernel code (such as the nvidia binary driver), then it won't work. Otherwise it should work. However, it is important to know that i386 binaries can only be linked with i386 libraries. So if you need to run an third-party i386 binary that requires a third- party library, then that library must be i386, too. Best regards Oliver" O.K I understand that. So I can see that unless I have an i386 FreeBSD build, I really cannot install those i386 only software titles. In that situation I assume I can only use amd64 ports and software. I have an idea though, would it be possible to build a i386 FreeBSD on an another partition. And use it to run i386 software while using the amd64 FreeBSD?

"You didn't mention that you want to build a i386-only port. The easiest way to circumvent that restriction is to down- load the i386 package of that port and install it.
