The proprietary driver was called fglrx, not "radeon" or "radeonhd". Those two drivers have been in the X open source trees for quite a while now. I first started using the radeon driver on amd64 in late 2006. The versions I have checked out for FreeBSD are documented as Radeonhd has no 2d or 3d acceleration. Radeon has both, but only works for older cards. That is also on 7-stable, but I haven't updated the sources in a while. http://www.mired.org/consulting.html Independent Network/Unix/Perforce consultant, email for more information.

The HD2400Pro part certainly seems accurate, at least. When setting up radeonhd for the card, I did need to toggle the hotplug detection bit in xorg.conf to get dual-monitor support; I haven't updated xorg since I filed that report, so I don't know if's been fixed already. -Ben Kaduk ___ freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

No. I'm aware of the iwi man page, but after I did that I got a message in /var/log/messages complaining about the legal.intel_ipw.license_ack variable, not the one specified in the iwi man page.

Can't load firmware
Hi all, I'm facing some problems with my IPW2200 NIC. It seems I can't load the firmware (from system log): firmware_get: failed to load firmware image iwi_bss Both if_ipw and ipw_bss modules are loaded. This very same computer works fine with linux, including loading the firmware. I post this question here cause I didn't get any answer in the freebsd-questions@ list and because I read in the iwi man page that this shouldn't happen :). Any help is appreciated.

Download the Windows version of Firefox and install it via Wine, then download the Windows version of Flash for Firefox and install that with Wine. Once you do that, you have Flash in Firefox using Wine. Like has been said, Wine is far from perfect, but this works great until a native Flash can be made for FreeBSD. Naram Qashat I'm not at my box right now, but it went something like this: 0. Install wine ( emulators/wine ) 1. Download firefox for windows ( http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html ) 2. Run: wine "Firefox Setup 3.0.exe" 3. Complete the installer 4. To run firefox you need to do something like: wine "C:/Program Files/Mozilla Firefox/firefox.exe" (I forget the exact path / command name) 5. Navigate to the adobe flash download page ( use goole or something ) and download the flash installer for windows. 6. When the download is complete, run it ( should be able to do this from the download manager in firefox ) 7. Complete the flash installer ( this will require you to close firefox, so do that ) 8. Start firefox again (see the wine firefox.exe command from above) 9. Create a script to start firefox under wine since the command is so ugly. I might write up some better instructions when I have the time, but I really don't have a good place to put them. I tried this before and have a bad luck of not having working audio on flash, but today with new wine and FF3 it works.

build stamps
If you are making world or release twice from one source, you will get some binaries and lot of libraries which differ because of time stamps: # make buildworld # make installworld DESTDIR=/home/build1 # rm -r /usr/obj/usr # make buildworld # make installworld DESTDIR=/home/build2 # diff -r /home/build1 /home/build2 freebsd-update-server also make world twice to find out where those build stamps are. I tried to freeze clock on build box while repeating build process: # while true; do date -n ; sleep 0.5; done and there were no differences between two builds. Is there any harm if I build releases with frozen clock? or maybe load kld module which replace gettimeofday syscall at build time? thanks, Artis ___ freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
