Source upgrade from 7.2R o 8.0R

When I try to build a kernel, make buildkernel, it complains that several directories are missing, i.e., axe, ums, umass, etc. I'm doing a make update and my file says src-all, so how could there be missing directories? I'm using csup. I tried to go back and use cvsup, but it appears it's been

startx and xinit under FreeBSD8

2009-12-11 Thread Steven Friedrich
I installed FreeBSD to another partition, so I could check it out. I selected All sources and binaries and KDE4. When I tried startx, it complained that it didn't exist. It's just a script, so I copied it over from my 7.2p5 partition. Now it complains that xinit doesn't exist. Why didn't these

SMB shares vs. FreeBSD8

2009-12-11 Thread Steven Friedrich
My SMB share, a 320GB WD NetCenter, fails to mount because the rl ethernet isn't up yet. I dual-boot 7.2 and 8.0. I've addedd noauto to the declaration in fstab, and I'll just mount it when I need it. I know usb has been completely re-written, but is that the cause?

uath under FreeBSD 8.0-RELEASE

2009-12-10 Thread Steven Friedrich
I installed FreeBSD8.0-RELEASE so I could see if it's compatible with my Netgear WG111T (this is newly supported in 8.0). Not surprising, uath (the new driver) is not in GENERIC (oopps, yes it is), so I copied GENERIC to LAPTOP3 and commented out most of the drivers, since I don't need them.

dcons_crom in FreeBSD8.0-RELEASE

2009-12-10 Thread Steven Friedrich
I figured the world and the kernel are in sync on the DVD, so I tried to rebuild just the kernel. Is this assumption valid? It failed to link due to symbols like dcons_crom. So I commented dcons_crom out of my kernel config. Is this actually a bug or do I need to buildworld/installworld?

x86info port complains cpuid driver not present

ACPI temperature

2009-11-29 Thread Steven Friedrich
I booted my HP Pavilion zd8215us and I immediately invoked chkCPUTemperature. The first temp reported was 52C, which is 125.6F. This leads me to believe that acpi has an anomaly regarding temperature measurement. The ambient temp was 71F (21.6C). The machine had been off for over eight hours.
