The future of FreeBSD at Yahoo!
The press in Germania is full of some statements, that Google is about to overtake Yahoo!. As far as I know, Yahoo! is one of the more popular and bigger, if not the biggest and last stronghold of a FreeBSD driven infrastructure. Despite the fact that even Google funded lots of coding for FreeBSD, I had the impression that Yahoo! might be one of the biggest contributor. And not to mention the psychological effect of hearing that such a company is utilizing a project like FreeBSD for potential newcomers in the business. So, what is about the future of FreeBSD? Does FreeBSD have a site where all the goods that has been first invented by the FreeBSD/BSD folks or all the things that are thought about to come in future are shown/listed? Crawling the mailing lists is a really nasty work.

Three button mouse emulation
A simple way to enable three button mouse emulation is to put mouse_flags=-3 in /etc/rc.conf. I cannot find this documented anywhere. Section 4.5 of the faq mentions this feature and refers to the moused man page, where we are told to pass -3 to moused. Similar treatment in the handbook. Section 2.10.10. Only a seasoned veteran would think to look in /etc/defaults/rc.conf. This trick is especially useful to laptop users and should be in the handbook. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

FreeBSD 8.2-RELEASE Install Failure: Unable to create a new /etc/fstab
Hi All, I am Installing 8.2-RELEASE via PXE and receive an error stating that sysinstall was unable to create new /etc/fstab. Everything appears to function correctly, in that, the system TFTP's the pxeboot and mfsroot files as needed. However, When I switch to the holographic shell and poke around a little, I can see that there is no /etc, despite it's existence in the mfsroot.gz. I must be missing something and am hoping that someone might be able to point in the right direction. -- Take care Rick Miller ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

I use a colorized termcap with less, but it also works with /usr/bin/more. It depends on what type of terminal you are using it on. I have it for xterm and rxvt (which is what I use). This works for manpages, but you can also colorize your prompt. It is short, so my ~/.termcap is below: -- snip --- # this is just changes to the standard FreeBSD termcaps - 2010-12-13 cdj xterm|xterm-color|X11 terminal emulator:\ :md=\E[33;1m:so=\E[36;1m:se=\E[0m:us=\E[32;4m:ue=\E[0;24m:\ :ti@:te@:tc=xterm-xfree86: rxvt|rxvt terminal emulator (X Window System):\ :md=\E[33;1m:so=\E[36;1m:se=\E[0m:us=\E[32;4m:ue=\E[0;24m:\ :pa#64:Co#8:AF=\E[3%dm:AB=\E[4%dm:op=\E[39;49m:\ :tc=rxvt-mono: -- snip --- All that does is set bold to yellow, standout to cyan, and underline to green. I use white on black, so if you use something else you will probably have to adjust the colors. I haven't tried 9.0, but this works on 8.1-RELEASE and 8.2-RELEASE. You can decide for yourself if that does what you want. -- Carl Johnsonca...@peak.org ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

Any ideas? As a retired sysadmin from the 1950s, I'm over my head but can't let go :-) So I need help sometimes :-( Many thanks - Chuck Bacon c...@cape.com Not sure why you're using gv. Try graphics/xpdf. Use xpdf to view the pdf and pdftops to convert it to postscript for printing.
