Re: LED proggy question
Hey Hugo,
Thanks for the info!
I don't think that the rest of the list got the reply because
"[EMAIL PROTECTED]" wasn't in one of the recipient
fields. I don't know why the list doesn't include it.
Regards,

Re: LED proggy question
Hey, Yes, that is where I got the idea from. But the C program there implies i'm using X, which i'm not. From what I understood, the functions lie on Xlib.h so they shouldn't work without X. I could be wrong tho. But I don't even have X libs installed on the machine in question. > Something similar (playing sounds or blinking keyboard leds on firewall > activity) was mentioned on Slashdot last week.

Something similar (playing sounds or blinking keyboard leds on firewall activity) was mentioned on Slashdot last week.

You want XLeds. (I haven't used it on BSD yet.)
