Re: Problems with OpenOffice 2.3.1 on FreeBSD
Le Mar 1 jan 08 à 21:21:43 +0100, Stephen Montgomery-Smith [EMAIL PROTECTED] écrivait : My personal wish list is that opencascade builds on FreeBSD-7 with the new stlport, and that octave-forge not be in its current IGNORE state. But I fully appreciate that I must either wait, or help make it happen. A patch is ready for that, and is available at http://people.freebsd.org/~thierry/ports/opencascade.diff but I cannot commit it right now: it will fail without the patch included in PR ports/118958. That means that we have to wait untill the ports tree is totally unfrozen. Best regards, -- Th. Thomas. pgpH41T7RN6Gt.pgp Description: PGP signature
Re: Missing libgfortran: what package is it in?
Selon vittorio [EMAIL PROTECTED] le Jeu 27 sep 18:31:44 2007 : I'm trying to update some packages of R. In compiling them freebsd 6.2 fails systematically because a libgfortran library is missing (and, as a matter of fact, it is!). What package should I install to have these lib available? It should be provided by lang/gcc42. Actually, if gcc42 is only registered as a build_depends, this is a bug. Regards, -- Th.

Re: FreeMat 3.0 doesn't call functions and help

Yes, with the new version 3.1 inv now works fine. Unfortunately the Help on line still doesn't work. I think that something worsened because with this new port now I cannot use the help on line even as root (in the previous version Help online as root worked quite well). Could you please script (1) a session with only `truss FreeMat', just calling the help and exiting? Then please send me the compresed log of this session.

You're right: I have no problem to run the examples and the classical functions are OK, simple operations on matrix are OK, but inv() hangs. I'll report this to the author. Besides if I ask for the help on line (OR helpwin) the following error messages pops up The file modules.txt is missing from the directory where I think help files should be.

How-to use a USB joypad?
Hello,
I have got a USB joypad, and it is sensed by the system (either 4.9 or
5.1):
uhid0: Microsoft Microsoft SideWinder Plug Play Game Pad, rev
1.00/1.01, addr 2, iclass 3/0
I have got a new device /dev/uhid0 and kldloaded joy.ko.
When I run
perl -e 'open(JOY,/dev/uhid0)||die;while(1)
{sysread(JOY,$x,16);@j=unpack(,$x);print @j\n;sleep(1);}'
(adapted from `man 4 joy'), it returns a list of numbers for each action
on the pad, but nothing usable.
I've tried to link /dev/joy0 - /dev/uhid0, but without success with
several games.
What am I missing?

Re: Configuration files after portupgrade horde and imp
Le Mer 3 sep 03 à 11:48:01 +0200, Heinrich Rebehn [EMAIL PROTECTED] écrivait : Hi lists, Hello, I just upgraded horde and php on our server via portupgrade. After the upgrade nothing was working anymore, it was impossible to login to horde anymore. I noticed that my horde/imp configuration files had been replced by the default files. My old files had been saved as filename.bak. Is this expected behaviour? Wouldn't it be better to leave the config files intact and install the new ones as filename.dist.new or something similar? This way the application would still be working after the upgrade and i would have time to inspect the new default config files for changes without being disturbed by users complaining that they can't use their webmail interface anymore? This is a known problem, and unfortunately, I have not yet found a satisfying solution. Usually, the configuration files of a release n don't work anymore with release n+1. Previous configuration files are backuped as .previous, and I personally use gvimdiff to copy changes to the new files. Actually, we would need a kind of mergemaster...

Very interesting solution, thanks!

because it won't build on bento.
