source control question

2005-01-05 Thread Robert William Vesterman
Does anyone know of a source control system that is not so directory-centric? Most of the ones I've seen seem to have a base assumption that, more or less, "directory" == "project". But in reality, a directory could be a project, or part of a project, or part of many projects, or merely struct

X kills su

2004-12-18 Thread Robert William Vesterman
After I exit from X windows, I no longer have the ability to su (to root, at least). It doesn't even ask for my password - it just immediately says "bad su from myacct to root". If I then "exit", and immediately log back in as myacct, I am able to su to root no problem. I am running 5.3-STABL

2004-12-15 Thread Robert William Vesterman
I installed the Gnome2 port, and it installed a whole lot of stuff that I wasn't expecting, including stuff that I don't know what it is, and also stuff that I never intend to use.

sound works with kldload, but not /boot/loader.conf?

2004-12-12 Thread Robert William Vesterman
Hi, I just tried playing a WAV file using xmms (this is the first time I've tried anything with sound on my installation). It issued a very generic error message, telling me things like "make sure your device is installed". I did some research (mostly in the FreeBSD handbook), and eventually

ACPI kills USB mouse

2004-12-02 Thread Robert William Vesterman
Hi, I've been having a hard time getting my USB mouse to work. Tonight, I accidentally booted without ACPI support, and the USB mouse magically worked. I tried booting with and without ACPI support several times thereafter, and each time, the USB mouse worked if and only if I hadn't booted wi
