How did you install gcc 3? Kris I downloaded the tar file from the gcc web site and compiled and installed it that way. OK, it sounds like you overwrote the FreeBSD system compiler. You need to reinstall it somehow. Something like: cd /usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/cc make depend make all make install might fix your system enough to complete a 'make world'. Otherwise (or if you're not comfortable doing this) you could reinstall FreeBSD. If you really want to install gcc 3 for compiling your own code, use the port, which installs it safely so it coexists with the system compiler. Kris pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature

Power Saving
Hi, I was wondering what the correct way was meant to be to implement CPU throttling under FreeBSD 5. At boot I get: acpi_cpu: throttling enabled, 2 steps (100% to 50.0%), currently 100.0% Setting hw.acpi.cpu.performance_speed to 1 seems to slow the CPU down (the percentages shown by top all increase). I want the CPU to be automatically throttled when the system is idle. I could write a daemon to poll the CPU usage every now and then and set the sysctl as needed but I thought there may be another way - perhaps there are hooks in the scheduler/idle loop for this sort of thing? Also, how do I get the HD to slow down? I have an IBM deskstar that lcaims to support running at half speed and I'd like that to happen when the disk hasn't been accessed in a while...

It has not yet been committed, but I'd be glad if you'd gave that port a try. http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=ports/50068 I guess, as it is a port, further documentation is not needed...

Re: sendmail woes
Quoting Giorgos Keramidas [EMAIL PROTECTED]: I'd probably boot single user mode and run 'mergemaster' after mounting all the filesystems. Giorgios, Am I expecting too much of mergemaster? I took your advice and ran it without any options. It showed me the comparision between old and new files as it ran on the console, and stored the new files in /var/tmp/temproot for me to compare and adjust my old files - without any guide about what the differences might be. The old files remain untouched until I manually change them. Is there at least a log somewhere which highlights any differences so I have the same sort of guide that appeared on the console when I ran mergemaster? The differences are shown, per file, when you run mergemaster. You can choose i (install) to install the new file, which will wipe out any changes you may have made in your old version. Of your can choose to leave until later, and then you will have to diff and merge the changes by hand. (Use the diff command to show the differences, and then edit your old files with the changes.) BTW, the difference between old and new freebsd.mc appears (more-or-less) cosmetic - BUT I didn't have a freebsd_submit.mc and one or two other files which look important. If you don't have some of the files which look important, then you should have chosen i (install) when mergemaster gave you the choice. For these, just copy them from /var/tmp/temproot into their appropriate place. -- Matt Emmerton ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
