Matrox G450 and X 4.0.2 = blank ?

Hello! My system is 4.2-stable (built few days ago) on a Microstar MS 6321 dual celeron motherboard. The kernel has SMP support enabled. Till yesterday I was using successfully a Diamond Fire GL 1000 Pro AGP card with XFree 3.3.idontremember :) Now I've got a new Matrox Millenium G450 32Mb

Re: Matrox G450 and X 4.0.2 = blank ?

Now I've got a new Matrox Millenium G450 32Mb dual head AGP card, but I've got also some weird problems... Under XF 3, using XF86_SVGA as server, my monitor is totally blank (NEC FE750). I'm sure this is not a unsupported-resolution/frequency/scantimes problem, since I've configured X

Re: cvsup confusion

John Polstra [EMAIL PROTECTED] types: I bet 99% of all users leave their crontab entries for the periodic scripts unchanged. I expect it's higher than that if you add more precision. First, most users (more than 90%) never fool with software configuration *at all*, though that's probably lower

Re: cvsup confusion

I just do this every night. A 'crontab -e' as root suffices to install the entries. I've never found the need to create a custom cvsup file, the one in examples works just fine. The log level will list edits cvsup makes. 42 3 * * * /usr/local/bin/cvsup -g -L 2 -h

Sorry in advance for the tragic lack of detail in this message, this is really just a first "heads-up: anyone else seeing this?" message. I'll dig for details as time and interest permit... A month or two ago, while running wine-2001.1.12 from ports, I could run Lotus Notes almost completely

Re: ipfw drop syn+fin

Say a web client has a few connections to a web server. One of those connections is retriving an image (for example). When it's finished, it will send a FIN to the server to close that connection. However, at the same time, the web client wants to open a new connection to the same
