By that I mean, if I wanted to say install Tomcat, Java, OpenOffice, etc. in this manner how would I know which package to download? And from where? I'd like to download these at work, burn them on a CD and take them home. However, since I'm not in front of my machine I don't know where ports will be looking for these files. Anyone know? running make fetch-recursive-list will tell you everything including -all- the places you can get the files. If you use a windoze box at work however, it'll be slightly painful, since you have to copy each url one by one (I imagine using something else like linux wouldn't be too bad, since you can generally make it use wget by running it with FETCH_CMD=wget). I've never actually done it this way though, and one issue I see is the fact that /usr/ports/distfiles has certain things semi-ordered (openoffice stuff is dumped into /usr/ports/distfiles/openoffice for example), and I don't think fetch-recursive-list does anything about it.

Wasn't wine on 5.1 broken (but fixed in -CURRENT)? I haven't gotten wine to work on 5.1 (programs always hung for a bit before 'generating an exception'), and from looking around on the net, it's a known problem, and fixed in -CURRENT. Furthermore, I think it's just winecheck that complains about /dev/sequencer. Back when I ran wine on 4.x it never once complained about a missing /dev/sequencer. -- Robin Schoonover (aka End) # # Pardon me, waiter.

But now that I'm trying to use Wine, it prompts me that I do not have /dev/sequencer. I'm running Free 5.1 and have a sblive card, which works great. It looks several symbolic links are missing in my /dev folder, according to the pcm(4) man pages. Specifically, I found that these are missing: /dev/midi /dev/music /dev/sequencer /dev/pss Any ideas? You need to make the devices with /dev/MAKEDEV - read that file for the available options. He's running 5.1, which probably means he is using devfs. That means there is no /dev/MAKEDEV -- Robin Schoonover (aka End) # # If you can keep your head when all about you are losing theirs, it's # just possible you haven't grasped the situation. -- Jean Kerr ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Updating ports perl from 5.8.0 to 5.8.1

You could do: portupgrade -rf perl p5-\* I'd imagine -r would mean all p5-* packages are included (since they depend on perl), but obviously that wasn't the case. If the version of FreeBSD is 4.x, then that means there is a perl in the base system, and thus all the p5-* packages probably didn't have perl listed as one of their dependencies. -- Robin Schoonover (aka End) # # There are two kinds of adhesive tape: That which won't # stay on and that which won't come off. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

If you installed it via ports, then ls /var/db/pkg | egrep ^db\(3\|4\) should do it for you.

You shouldn't. It's a -really- bad idea. You should probably upload it somewhere else, and then move it. But if you -must-, take root out of /etc/ftpusers If you do this, be sure to put root back in after you are done. -- Robin Schoonover (aka End) # # Paranoid schizophrenics outnumber their enemies at least two to one. # ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Mozilla crashes with ASP sites
On Sun, 26 Oct 2003 14:54:52 +0100, Brian Reichholf [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: i've been googleing on this for quite a while now, and i find it rather annoying: i've just installed mozilla 1.5 from the ports a day or two ago but it strikes me as _very_ odd that when i load up an .asp page that mozilla crashes entirely. It seems to me that asp wouldn't be directly causing your problem, since it seems like it's more like a scripting language like php than something your browser should directly care about. It's possible whoever wrote these pages only had IE in mind, and it was never tested it on or cared about Mozilla. If it really is crashing on all .asp pages, then that -is- weird. And I just googled it too, and apparently it might be 'Microsoft Html' that those .asp pages are generating. I'd suggest reporting your problem to the actual mozilla people (use bugzilla or whatever), since they are more likely to be able to fix it then us.:P -- Robin Schoonover (aka End) # # Vital papers will demonstrate their vitality by moving from where you # left them to where you can't find them. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
