I do wish people would not be happy about missing users. Being rid of all the morons means that we are also rid of proper attention from companies like Adobe and Nvidia. Some of us see that as a drawback. No, this isn't true at all for the hardware vendors like Nvidia. When a hardware vendor contemplates entering a market like FreeBSD they have 3 major concerns. First, is market size. However, second is ease of porting to the OS, and last is the liklihood of having to supply technical support. If you have a large market but everyone in the market is a moron and will be calling you for tech support, your going to make less money than a smaller market where everyone is an expert and nobody is calling you for tech support. What is double plus good is that there's experts floating around in the small market who will do your support for you, including writing your drivers, all you have to do is supply a minimal set of programming interface docs. This is a far cry from Windows where you have to write and debug the driver and pay Microsoft a lot of money to get it certified. As for attention from Adobe, doesen't it bother you to use a free OS merely as a platform for running commercial software? How about ditching the commercial software completely and using free open source tools on the free OS? That's what FreeBSD is all about, honey.

There's a reason the ABI version number was bumped, and it indicates the new shlib is not compatible with the old one. Formally, the correct fix is: # portupgrade -rf icu-\* or the equivalent in whatever ports management software you prefer. However this is pretty unfortunate as icu is a basic component that a large number of packages depend upon. Expect to spend a long time compiling. The port sysutils/bsdadminscripts installs a script called pkg_libchk that will list you all ports that /really/ need to be rebuild. Many of the ports depending on icu-\* do so indirectly by linking to a library that links to icu, thus it is sufficent to rebuild those directly linking ports. pkg_libchk checks for such direct dependencies and will list you the affected ports. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] I just tried that but unfortunately pkg_libchk didn't work.

My long-term experience with VMWare has been that FreeBSD is in the barely supported category by VMWare. The guest OS tools are designed to help the VMWare host snoop on the OS internals to better manage resources like memory, so there's a chance that the tools you're running are referencing internals changed from 6.x to 7.x. That'd be my guess. You may want to post over on VMWare's forums and find out if others have this problem or if 7.x is even considered usable with the tools. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Lockup on Boot due to ACPI (Freebsd 7.0-RC2 i386)
I just upgraded a system from 6.3-RELEASE to 7.0-RC2 (both i386) only to discover that the system won't boot with ACPI enabled. ACPI was working fine in 6.3. The problems occur at boot-up -- the system simply stops loading at approximately the same place during each attempt (noted below in the dmesg). I have added `hint.acpi.0.disabled=1' to loader.conf to get around the issue automatically. I have tried building new kernels with various options added/removed, rebuilt world with updated source, etc. I have included my system information below. The dmesg output (a full boot with ACPI disabled) is `verbose' and I have edited it to show where the lockup happens. I am more than willing to help out with any debugging if needed. I just need some direction.

This would eliminate the problem that you now are experiencing and possibly make further updates easier and more reliable.

RE: Some ideas for FreeBSD
If you have a large market but everyone in the market is a moron and will be calling you for tech support, your going to make less money than a smaller market where everyone is an expert and nobody is calling you for tech support. What is double plus good is that there's experts floating around in the small market who will do your support for you, including writing your drivers, all you have to do is supply a minimal set of programming interface docs. This is a far cry from Windows where you have to write and debug the driver and pay Microsoft a lot of money to get it certified. As for attention from Adobe, doesen't it bother you to use a free OS merely as a platform for running commercial software? How about ditching the commercial software completely and using free open source tools on the free OS? That's what FreeBSD is all about, honey. can't be told clearer :) ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

how to debug crashing X-app
Hi all, I'm having trouble with my local X server, I think: If I start nethack(-qt), it throws me out of my X session, right back to the xdm login prompt. If I start nethack from another machine (on the same X server) the same happens. If I use another X server, for instance xming (on Windows), nethack runs normally, so I think it's (some part of) X server. But which part could that be? How can I analyse what exactly is going on? The Xorg.0.log.old shows these messages on the end, but googling shows nothing meaningful. Fatal server error: Caught signal 11.

In real life, if portmanager is run and actually starts to update files, it may occasionally create a new situation in which other, previously undisclosed files are now required to be updated to complete the process correctly.

It shows which packages are up to date, which are out of date, which are current but have been built with out of date dependencies, which are missing etc. Chris ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] This what happens when running portmanager: ecerejo# portmanager -s MGrStrlen error: NULL marker not found in string Assertion failed: (0), function MGrStrlen, file MGrStrlen.c, line 54. Abort (core dumped) Sorry I have no idea what to do with that. Perhaps make deinstall and make reinstall in ports-mgmt/portmanager? It doesn't have any build or run dependencies.

what happened to linuxflashplugin?
I just tried a portupgrade out and it failed on linux flashplugin. Apparently, none of the file exist in the ftp repositories anymore. Any idea what happened there?

gnome screensaver crashes
On a nice fresh install of FreeBSD 6.3 and gnome, gnome-screensaver crashes at X startup claiming that it can't talk to the dbus daemon, even though the daemon is running. Is this a known problem? It seems to be new in the latest version of X and/or Gnome. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I can reccomend you the -q option, which will give you a very clean output simply listing all the packages that have problems. Without the -q option the program shows its status, which is not well readable in a file, because it doesn't use \n but \r. That you get output with the -m/--mean flag, but not without means that the false positive detection is erroneous. For the time being I'd recommend you to use the libmap.conf solution. Later this day I will add some debugging functionality to the script and send that version to you, if you are willing to spend your time helping me finding this problem. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: What version of Freebsd to run
Hi, it seems your question got lost in nirvana. Darryl Hoar wrote: Greetings, Just received my Dell PowerEdge SC 1435. Going to be a webserver for me. What version of Freebsd should I run on this box ? I want rock solid stability. If stability is your main concern, you will have to stick with 6.3. 7.0 will be available very soon but it might be not as stable as 6.3 already is. As you want to run just a webserver, I would still suggest to install the currently available version of 7.0 and upgrade it then to the release version when available. The other option would be to install 6.3 now and stick with it until 7.1 becomes available.
