framebuffer console on old ATI
Hi, I notice that on 10.0 (but was the same on 9.x too) my old ThinkPad T30 runs in VGA text. Is there a specific limitaiton for the embedded videocard? a choice? or something I can try enabling? dmesg reports it as: [ 1.005536] acpivga0 at acpi0 (VID): ACPI Display Adapter [ 1.005536] acpiout0 at acpivga0 (LCD0, 0x0110): ACPI Display Output Device [ 1.005536] acpiout1 at acpivga0 (CRT0, 0x0100): ACPI Display Output Device [ 1.005536] acpiout2 at acpivga0 (TV0, 0x0200): ACPI Display Output Device [ 1.005536] acpiout3 at acpivga0 (DVI0, 0x0210): ACPI Display Output Device [ 1.005536] acpivga0: connected output devices: [ 1.005536] acpivga0: 0x0110 (acpiout0): LCD Panel, head 0 [ 1.005536] acpivga0: 0x0100 (acpiout1): Ext.

I removed it and was able to reinstall windowmaker too. X11 starts up... so far 10.0 looks good on the trusty T30! WiFi works too... let me have it compile a little and test and see. Riccardo
Re: NetBSD 10 and unreliable git
Hi Martin and Aryabhata,
network is probably the issue. I was around this weekend and used
wireless in two different places, the connection was good. I know both
places and used them often with different computers (parent's house,
girlfriend home.. not some hotel or airport).
However, at my home today I launched on both repositories via wired
ethernet and it worked.

I suppose network issues. Since cloning the same repository and updating
the other - both failed before also with reboots - now worked. I hope
git is deterministic.
Now that I write, I remember having seen this error on one of my old
SparcStations. There, just reuissing the command helped. It was however
on a much smaller repository.

Re: NetBSD i386 missing packages on 10.0 after upgrade - cairo gobject conflict
cairo and caicairo-gobject are now one single package. You need to remove these and install the new cairo package. Eventually, you might need to remove everything depending on cairo, clean and re-install.

Also if repository is pointing to 10.0 and packages available on repo.

I have never seen that (neither on 10.0 nor on -current). It is very
hard to tell what causes the errors for you. Two potential reasons
would be network issues (e.g. a bug in the driver for the network device
you are using) or the limit of simultaneous open files.
If you are using /bin/sh (or bash) please tell us the output of "ulimit -a"
[or for {t}csh: "limit").
What network device are you using? Can you show the relevant part of
/var/run/dmesg.boot? Also the output of ifconfig for the device (sometimes
checksum offload breaks things).
