Re: Matlab on FreeBSD 5.3

2005-02-27 Thread Santo Natale
Hi,
I managed to install matlab 6.5 on a freebsd 5.3, but I can't tell you exactly 
how I
did now, since I have no matlab here.
I remember that I played a bit with scripts regarding the detection of 
architecture ( I
just edited these scripts and forcely set environment variable to i386 or so ) 
and did few
other modifications, but they were quite simple.
You should manage to get it running, however.
hope this gives you one more hope :)
regards,
santo natale

Re: WRITE_DMA UDMA ICRC ERROR

2005-01-31 Thread Santo Natale
check if yours new hd is connected through a 80 pin ide cable ( for UDMA speed 
>= 66 ).
I had the same troble and it disappeared as soon as i replaced the cable.
hope this will help,

Re: problems installing java

You need to install linux-sun-jdk13 or linux-ibm-jdk13 from /usr/ports/java to be able 
to build jdk13.
hope this will help,

Re: CTRL+ALT+DEL

Try add following line:

options SC_DISABLE_REBOOT

to your kernel conf, recompile and install the kernel.
This should be work.
