off images most of the time, and bookmarking the tab group then closing as many
tabs as I wasn't actually going to use soonest (especially any viewing PDF

I think "man -K" would work on gnu/linux, but on OpenBSD you might have to:
cd /usr/share/man
or
cd /usr/local/man
and
grep -ir hostap *|less
.
Maybe someone else knows a better way though.

While this probably doesn't solve your main problem, it might be useful

I was running a snapshot from Sept 26, then upgraded yesterday to 6.4
release, and ran pkg_add -u and syspatch. Fortunately mutt runs
without X :) .
When I run "startx" I get errors like this (details in log below):

Hi. On 6.4 (not 6.3 or snapshots i tried), the external mouse just

Hi misc.
Am I running into a limit that will require recompiling the kernel
(or changing my work style I suppose)? Which man pages should I read
next, or should I be thinking about this differently?

that I had not increased enough.

I have been wondering for a long time (and did some searches) if it
would make sense for obsd to have a default umask of 0077, in the

I imagine it helping a new user who hasn't learned yet about umask, to

One possible correction: login.conf might be a better place than what I
suggested earlier. Either way, would require thinking through it by
someone more knowledgeable.
