Re: schedule a script at "system startup"

Also, make sure the script is executable and contains lines like: #!/bin/sh echo -n " some informative message here" su -l username -c '( command arg1 ... argn )' Run the script (as root) manually with /usr/local/etc/rc.d/sctript.sh to verify everything is okay and in case you need/want to add redirection (still inside parenthesis).

Here's a list of public, and 100% official I(i.e., stratum 1 ntp servers): http://tycho.usno.navy.mil/ntp.html Pick any of them and add it/tem to /etc/ntp.conf, then set up things so that ntpd is started at boot time and you're set (I actually have 3 of them in there and let nptd pick up the most suitable one).

6.0-RELEASE: Higher CPU temperature (compared to 5.4-RELEASE)?
Hello, after a clean install to move from 5.4-RELEASE to 6.0-RELEASE, I've noticed a slight increase in temperature (when close to 100% idel) from ~39C to ~43C. Okay, this is probably nothing to worry about, but I was wondering if anyone else has seen this and, more to the point, if there's an explanation. Some data for you: ACPI APIC Table: (blanks from the actual output) CPU: AMD Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 3500+ (note that I'm not running amd64) real memory = 1073676288 (1023 MB) avail memory = 1045983232 (997 MB) MB: MSI K8T Neo2 Chipset: VIA K8T800 While on the subject, although I'm not sure the two are related, do you think the following output is normal? # vmstat -i interrupt total rate irq6: fdc010 0 irq13: npx01 0 irq14: ata011940 1 irq15: ata1 1070 0 irq16: re0 81907 7 irq18: pcm0 314901 28 irq21: uhci0 uhci1+43091 3 cpu0: timer 22203789 1999 <--- ?!? Total 22656709 2040 Also worth mentioning is that "dmesg" displays the following: [...] cpu0: on acpi0 acpi_perf0: invalid _PSS package (repeated 33 times) acpi_throttle0: on cpu0 [...] Ideas, anyone?
