Hi,
I am fairly new to fbsd and not a linux user, just windows and osx.
My first install was version 7.1 for a short while and had 7.2, but only
just came back to it with 9.0-r (amd64).
I have a bit of an issue with the port system and was hoping to get some
basic info as to what i might be
My first suggestion is to begin using portmaster which can be found here:
/usr/ports/ports-mgmt/portmaster
My second suggestion is to please never ever ever mess with CFLAGS on
FreeBSD. You can get away with it on some Linux distros, but FreeBSD
strongly discourages it.

I only ever had this option set
CFLAGS= -O2 -fno-strict-aliasing -pipe
Setting that in make.conf is counterproductive. First, those are the
defaults, so they don't improve anything.
Second, that overrides settings made elsewhere. Consider a port like

Thanks for your quick reply, but can you clarify what you mean about not
messing with the CFLAGS?
I mean I had only ever used that one setting taken from the example in
/usr/share/examples/etc/make.conf, and the only experimentation i did is
either with it

At the moment my /etc/make.conf just has 1 line with the Perl version

I think that not setting CLFAGS would be sensible. There's plenty of
other stuff you can fiddle with in
Alright guys, I'm at the end of my rope here. For those that haven't seen
my previous emails here's the (not so) quick breakdown:

Hi,
* have you filed a PR?
* is the crash easily reproducable?
* are you able to boot some ramdisk-only FreeBSD-8.2 images (eg create
a ramdisk image using nanobsd?) and do some stress testing inside
that?
It sounds like you've established it's a storage issue, or at least
interrupt handling for

The Twiddler 2.1 keyboard is a good example of a chorded keyboard. It became
popular with wearable computers where the user wore a heads-up augmented

I saw a demo of a device about 30 years ago that you held in one hand.
It had about five buttons positioned under your fingers, and various
