I don't see that happening soon given your confused posts here. It seems to be about time you did some learning. packages are provided and are installed by using pkg_add(1). They are pre-compiled and packaged for you. You don't need make install unless you are compiling ports and raw beginners are advised to use packages not ports. In fact the only people who should be compiling ports are those who are 1) competent in the art, 2) are doing it to test patches or upgrades reported by maintainers or 3) have the skills in (1) and need to upgrade to a published port for some technical reason and who know how to make sure that their kernel and userland are recent enough to match the new port version. > >On Mon, Nov 14, 2011 at 4:31 PM, Richard Toohey ><richardtoo...@paradise.net.nz> wrote: >> On 14/11/2011, at 6:13 PM, John Tate wrote: >> >>> Device seems to be: Generic mmc2 DVD-R/DVD-RW. >>> >>> cdrecord: This version of cdrecord does not include DVD-R/DVD-RW support >>> code. >>> cdrecord: If you need DVD-R/DVD-RW support, ask the Author for >>> cdrecord-ProDVD. >>> cdrecord: Free test versions and free keys for personal use are at >>> ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/cdrecord/ProDVD/ >>> >>> Apparently this support code has been in cdrtools since 2009, the site >>> it tells me to go to tells me I don't need it.
