Re: Some questions related to 4.0
- Something else: - cdio(1) can now perform track-at-once burning and rewritable blanking. - - Is it planed to create a own CD Burn application on OpenBSD? - I`ve read a lot peoples do have problems with cdrtools (lets name it - Debian and others) and even forked cdrtools. But except of this cdio - provides a lot functionality already and now burning support was added too - that`s why I ask. - To the best of my knowledge, cdio *is* a CD burning application. Well I`m sorry I`ve read the manpage (and updated to a 4.0 snapshot btw) and you4re right. Even it doesn`t look like all the other stuff in OpenBSD.. it looks like a audioplayer with a added burning-function wich reminds me to the emacs-concept... - OpenBSD does not support a large amount of memory, as far as I know. - Link: http://archives.neohapsis.com/archives/openbsd/2004-11/2964.html - -This has recently changed. - I didn`t found somethign wich mentions this on the plus.html - So: Is that fixed now? I`ve 2GB RAM and would like to buy some more (AMD64). - -Yes, this should work. During an Answer at undeadly somebody told me it does NOT work. http://www.undeadly.org/cgi?action=articlesid=20060901015409mode=expanded Could somebody maybe verify this? And why is it such a issue to deal with more memory (specialy on AMD64 wich should have less limitations then i386?!). Kind regards, Sebastian

Last but not least: Has Henning something in the backhand? He owns openhttpd.org for some months now.. :) People are making all sorts of speculations, but I am not aware of the answer. Nothing happens on the CVS list, though, and presumably Henning is busy enough already. Joachim
