Minor fix for KDE 4 monitor screen saver/power save nit
Hi All,
KDE 4.1.4 (and I believe KDE 4.2.0) has an issue with krunner that stops
the monitor from dropping into power save mode if the screen saver kicks
in before the power save timeout. This bugged me sufficiently to find a
fix, so thought I'd share this in case this issue is bugging anyone else.
The relevant KDE bug report is here:
http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=165265
I've backported the fix from the 4.2 tree for KDE 4.1.4. Stick the
attached patch in /usr/ports/x11/kdebase4-workspace/files and
rebuild/reinstall the port.
For KDE 4.2.0, the patch obtained by running:
svn diff -c916964 svn://anonsvn.kde.org/home/kde/branches/KDE/4.2/kdebase
should work with some minor tweaks to the patch meta data. Same
procedure applies as for 4.1.4.
I've confirmed the attached patch resolves the issue for 4.1.4.
Cheers,
Lawrence

If you still have xorg 7.4 installed, try running hal-device and check if your mouse is enabled or ignored. I had this problem due to an extra configuration file under /usr/local/share/hal that had disabled hal's ability to manage my /dev/psm0.

I tried "b" -- very successfully. The path is (roughly): 1.

Before you remove them, record their names and origins -- you will need them to either get their old versions from ftp.freebsd.org or too build from ports source. 3. Remove the packages identified in step 1. 4. FTP-get or build the old versions. If you are to build them, you need the old ports tree: use this tag in your ports-supfile: *default release=cvs tag=. date=2009.01.23.12.00.00 Thanks. It was how to set the wayback machine that was the missing piece to the puzzle. I did this since I am on dial-up and had not deleted the old distfiles (and did not have any of the packages. It wasn't a bed of roses and plenty of restoring is still ahead, but the mission critical stuff now works. I would not recommend your own build under the circumstances: FTP-getting is much faster, of course -- the whole process will take you about two hours, I think. No doubt, but having the monster distfiles still on-hand tips the balance. This seems to make the point: never delete the last cycle distfiles.

Lend FreeBSD 7 or 8 access for ports upgrade?
Greetings, could someone lend me an account on his FreeBSD machine for a couple of days so that I can update sysutils/e2fsprogs to a new upstream release? Any architecture will do. I do not need root access, but I need to be able to ssh in and build ports, obviously. It's easier for me if vim, rsync, ports-mgmt/porttools and cvs are installed and the firewall allows CVS to the anoncvs servers. :-) Reason for asking is that I've trashed my /usr filesystem on 7.1-RELEASE with growfs & fsck and want to do forensics before reinstalling everything to figure how growfs managed to eat /usr, and a separate account would likely allow me to update the e2fsprogs port much sooner.

Hello, I read in documentatione that there is support for instantclient... Now prepare a virtual machine and I try to compile. Ciao Franco http://orclib.sourceforge.net/doc/html/group__g__install.html Oracle Instant Client Support OCILIB supports Oracle Instant Client. On Microsoft Windows, there is no difference between using a regular Oracle client and an Instant Client with OCILIB On Unix-like systems, the Instant Client is divised in different packages. Public headers and shared libs are not part of the same package. So, you must provide the following options to the configure command : * with-oracle-headers-path : location the public header files * with-oracle-lib-path : location the oracle shared lib If your instant client package containing the shared libs does not have a symbolic link 'libclntsh.[shared lib extension]' to the fully qualified shared lib real name, you must create it : Example on Linux : * $ ln -s $ORALIBPATH/libclntsh.so.10.1 $ORALIBPATH/libclntsh.so --- 2009/2/6 Thierry Thomas : > Le Ven 6 fév 09 à 9:00:01 +0100, Franco Marchesini > > écrivait : >> Hello guys, > > Hello, > >> there is someone that already working on OCILib port? >> >> http://orclib.sourceforge.net/ > > It seems interesting, but this is a wrapper on Oracle's OCI, and ATM > there is no "supported" OCI in the ports tree.
