Here's output of one of the programs that doesn't run: ldd /usr/local/bin/fastest_cvsup ldd: /usr/local/bin/fastest_cvsup: not a dynamic executable BUT, it is executable and using the exact path to the program still gives this error: /usr/local/bin/fastest_cvsup: not found Yes, I did re-install the port too.

Yes, if you are using i386. Most CPUs have the same default CFLAGS, it's the value of CPUTYPE that's passed to the compiler that determines processor optimizations. ------------------------------ Message: 8 Date: Sat, 24 Jan 2009 08:23:56 -0500 From: Robert Huff <roberth...@rcn.com> Subject: Re: Registry corrupt?

Once fixed, it "appeared" to upgrade fine (build/install/mergemaster), including a new kernel build/install, but on reboot it still shows 6.3...!!! I have rmoved /usr/obj and even /usr/src and tried over several times, but same result. Some parts of the system is running okay, but not others. Have wasted too much time on this machine and today will move to a new machine and start over. This server is one of our DNS servers, so we're covered with others that take over during shutdown of this problem server. The DNS (or named) is one of the parts not running correctly and the most vital. Just a very strange issue and wondered if anyone else had similar results ever -- it may just be the machine, but didn't act like it. Thanks again, Jack (^_^) Happy trails, Jack L.

I'd try to solve the second problem before the first (for me, the root password works fine; although normally, I don't *have* a valid password on the root account). The correct way to start cups from rc.conf is: cupsd_enable="YES" Is that how you do it? That is how I configured rc.conf. Why should it start 3 times in the startup?

Those setting for nsswitch.conf don't look right to me. There should have been a message printed out when you installed one of the linux_base ports, telling you how to configure it.

If you want to know what gcc processor optimizations will be enabled you can do this: Create hello.c: #include <stdio.h> main() { printf("hello, world\n"); } Then compile it with -Q -v in addition to the default CFLAGS: gcc -O2 -fno-strict-aliasing -pipe -Q -v -o hello hello.c The section "options enabled" will list them all. I usually only add "-march=native" to my CFLAGS to enable a few more CPU specific optimizations. /Morgan ------------------------------ Message: 16 Date: Sat, 24 Jan 2009 17:36:37 +0100 From: "Paul B.

Is your ports tree up-to-date? Although I don't think the urls have changed. What errors are you getting? 404s? What urls are you using? IIRC you have to register an account with Sun before you can download the jdk from their site.

What I'd like to do is export the ports hierarchy to all machines, but preserving ports/packages for each version/architecture. I also want to make rebuilding indexes run as fast as possible. Right now, I simply exports(5) /usr/ports via NFSv3. The problem comes in with INDEX files and packages. Indexes get updated only when the host serving the export updates the hierarchy via portsnap update. If I create a package on SPARC64 and the package exists already for an i386 build, then I've got an issue.

How it does it in detail can be seen in its source code but basically it's decided by checking manufacturer, cpu family and whether sse2 and sse3 support is present. Your processor is most likely a prescott and you can see what gcc selects by running the compilation example from my previous post. The choice shows up in its output. /Morgan ------------------------------ Message: 25 Date: Sat, 24 Jan 2009 21:33:02 +0100 (CET) From: Wojciech Puchar <woj...@wojtek.tensor.gdynia.pl> Subject: Re: Registry corrupt?

The point I was making before, is that CPUTYPE isn't just passed transparently to gcc, it's used for setting other variables, such as CFLAGS.

So unless you know that CPUTYPE=native is supported by the OS as > well as the compiler, you probably shouldn't use it in make.conf. I got that point. As with all tuning you always take the risk of breaking something but that is a personal choice. From my own experience I prefer that the compiler choses the optimizations. I don't know about the base OS but a quick grep through /usr/ports only reveals 5 or 6 ports that actually checks CPUTYPE and they don't do much more than setting -march={$CPUTYPE} which is pretty redundant.
