Re: Need to trim the disc1 packages

2003-11-30 Thread Julian St.
 - IMO, Don't include netscape, mozilla or opera. KDE includes
 Konqueror and GNOME has Nautilus(1/2). That's enough to get someone up
 and running and let them get to www.freebsd.org to see how to install
 something else.

I do use neither KDE nor GNOME. At least keep one mozilla (or Opera, it
doesn't matter). The Linux binaries could be dropped on disc1, though.
But I just realise that I install over FTP most of the time anyway...

 - I'd say (x)emacs could go as well. However, a lot of people learning
 UNIX use this as their first real (aka powerful) editor (sorry
 PiCo/nEdit just can't compare). I personally like vi/vim/gvim so I
 might be biased.

I think people expect to see (X)Emacs on an install disc of a unix-like
OS.

Julian

  What exactly does an UDMA ICRC error mean ?
  I think this is simply a read error.
  AFAIK an IDE disk doesn't have spare sectors or am I wrong ?
  How severe is this error ? What do you think ??
 
 IDE disks have (hidden) spare sectors, and will transparently remap 
 sectors as long as they have spare ones left.
 
 If the drive reports errors (hard error reading fsbn...), then it 
 likely has run out of spare sectors, and probably will die soon.


I have experienced the same problems with a VIA IDE controller using UDMA transfer 
mode with two perfectly healthy hard drives. Now I use a motherboard with SiS chipset 
and never had these problems again.

  gets on. I presume it's related to the interrupt problems the current
  branch is generally having. 
  
  Anyone else seeing this? Should I upgrade to -current?
 
 Current isn't better. This is a long time problem and is most
 noticeable when you downgrade from -current to -stable... it's
 unforgettable feeling :-P
 I don't expect it will be fixed in the near future, because it's
 been so over a year now. Current has it's weak points and this is
 only one of the regressions.

I remember having this problem on 5.0-RELEASE, but it was completely
gone once I upgraded to -CURRENT (late february I think). Perhaps it
could be interesting to know if this problem is connected to certain
hardware components. (Athlon XP 2400+ (2008 MHZ), SiS board, realtek
8139B network, SB Live!, nVidia TNT2U, UDMA100 WD harddisk)

Besides: my CDROM drive is working properly using PIO and UDMA33.

  Just out of curiousity, have you tried using -mfpmath=sse? I remember someone 
  on this list claiming that the SSE fpa-code works much better than the i387 
  code which is used by default (even with -march=pentium4).
 
 
 I don't know if SSE code runs faster, but it defitely seems to fix bad
 code generation when optimizing for athlon-xp architecture.   For
 example, -O2 -march=athlon-xp produces broken code, whereas -O2
 -march=athlon-xp -mfpmath=sse produces programs which work.

Just out of curiosity: Is -O -march=athlon-xp affected, too, by broken
code generation? Because thats what I use all the time. :)
