 Any advice on usage?  I tried it and got this error:

 # powerd -a minimum
 powerd: lookup freq: No such file or directory
You should load cpufreq in your loader.conf. I believe cpufreq is the
backend that FreeBSD uses for (dynamic) CPU scaling.
cpufreq_load=YES

rc.conf:
powerd_enable=YES
powerd_flags=-a adaptive -b adaptive -n adaptive

Re: ipw and 6.0-RELEASE

2005-11-13 Thread Luk van den Borne
You should delete /var/db/ports/ipw-firmware/options and run make
install clean again. This time, do not select the build with kernel
modules option. (Or just set it to false in the options file and
recompile).

2005/11/13, Omer Faruk Sen [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
 Hi,

 As stated I am trying to install ipw-firmware port on 6.0-RELEASE but port
 states that I ipw support is already included in source tree. But when I try
 to activate this interface (ipw0) I get

 ipw0: Pleas load firmware.


 and thus I can't associate againsy my AP.

 Which one is right? I am a bit confused here..

Re: GTK interfaces in KDE

2005-11-13 Thread Luk van den Borne
2005/11/13, Michał Masłowski [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
  Hi,
  I run 5.4 stable with xorg 6.8.2 and kde 3.4.0. I also use quite a few
  apps with a rather dull looking GTK interface. I know that GTK
  interfaces pick up the desktop themes under Gnome. Is there any way of
  applying a theme to GTK interfaces under kde, either the kde theme
  itself or a Gnome theme in any way ?
  Thanks,
  Edward

 Use x11-themes/gtk-qt-engine to use KDE theme with GTK.
Yep, with gtk-qt engine you can select your current QT theme. With
gtk2-theme-switch you can select a GTK2 theme that you want to apply.

Re: xfce4-desktop

2005-11-09 Thread Luk van den Borne
That's not something specific to this port. It happened to me before.
A quickfix is to hit alt+F2 and run xfdesktop. Remember to save the
session when you logout.

 I think xfce4-desktop port is broken.  I updated my ports tree earlier
 tonight and did a portupgrade tonight and it broke.  It worked earlier
 today...  It appears some xfce4 ports have gone to 4.3.2.1 and some
 have not:

 Anyone got any ideas?  xfce still works, just no desktop background,
 and no right clicking on the desktop.  And of course the X11 standard
 screen of grey squares where the desktop picture used to be.

gtk2 themes in xfce4

2005-11-07 Thread Luk van den Borne
Hello,

Just a quick question: I've recently installed gtk2-switch-theme, in
order to set a theme for firefox while working in e17. But when I got
back to xfce4, I am unable to change the theme in the xfce4 control
center. Only the colors change accordingly, but the widgets remain
from the theme that I set in gtk2-theme-switch.

Does anyone know how to give control back to xfce4?

Btw if this is not the right list, please tell me.

Luk van den Borne
