Mouse Trails?

2013-08-17 Thread Walter Hurry
My sight is deteriorating. I can still see and read the screen, but sometimes locating the mouse pointer (LXDE here) is difficult. Is there a port which will give me mouse trails when the rodent is moved? Thanks. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org

At the moment it is not clear to me at which layer the issue is originated. In fact the acpi_ibm module doesn't work completely for the Lenovo X121e (brightness control with Fn+F8/F7 nonfunctional), so the issue might be related to this. I shall file a PR during the day. Kind regards,

NAT loopback using natd and ipfw

2013-08-17 Thread Frank Leonhardt
Does anyone know how to get NAT loopback (aka NAT hairpin or NAT reflection) working with natd and ipfw? It seems to work with the in-kernel NAT without the need for configuration, but not if you're using natd. I have a feeling it may be something do do with the ipfw diverted-loopback test
