Kopete, kplayer, kdelibs etc
I know there ar eknown issues about kopete and it being able to connect to MSN & Yahoo, im runnind KDE4 on AMD64 FreeBSD7.0-STABLE .. cvsupd today so all ports & SRC are upto date portupgrade done and yet kopete still refuses to connect to MSN or yahoo .. is the bug still on going or ? Since upgrading to KDE4 as well, kplayer refuses to run and i have had to goto VLC player to be able to watch vide files ... any reason why this would refuse to load ? When trying to re-compile things like Xchat and other various files that seem to be broken, i run into troubles with an error saying/mentioning kdelibs and QT .. excat error i couldnt say as i have now also lost complete internet access on the machine even though still able to communicate with the router and all other machines ironically running windows, seem to be running aok, so im trying to kill multiple birds using memory and booting from windows to FreeBSD etc At this point im frustrated enough to just fdisk the machine, and isntall everything from scratch with 7.0-STABLE & KDE4 .. so i ask for a lil assistance plz so as i can avoid having to do this drastic measure. -- No virus found in this outgoing message.

Wireless net Card
I downloaded the drivers for the chipset my belkin wireless card has, used ndisgen to create the kernel module, which all went aok .. however when trying to load the module it hard hangs the machine to the point of it restarting itself .. is there something i perhaps mybe missing or am i out in the cold in not being able to use this wireless card untill some time a freebsd driver is done ? ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

loosing mount point
