Hi all!
I need to check if file is locked or not (with flock) from a shell
script. I remember there was something but cannot recall what exactly.
And if possible I do not want to write my own test utility even it
is several lines in length)
Thanks,

Hi,
Some time ago (unfortunatly I cannot say when) all sound had dissapeared
from SDL apps. However soundcard itself is fine as xmms
via /dev/dsp is working fine. I tried to recompile all sdl related stuff -
no difference (even did portupgrade -R sdl). Is there anybody out there
who is experienc

Hi all,
Consider the following except from a perl program:
tie(%foodb, 'MLDBM', $BAR_FILE, O_CREAT | O_RDWR, 0666)
or die("Cannot open $BAR_FILE: $!\n");
I expect it to create a new $BAR_FILE, if none existed, with 0666
permissions. But it doesn't. It creates a file with de

Hi,
Looking through pppd sources I found that it doesn't know how
to request DNS info from the server, while ppp can.
Here I mean requesting DNS info and updating /etc/resolv.conf.
Did anyone tried to make it possible with pppd?
Since I used to pppd I'd like to teach him this useful functionality.

Yes it has. It's sources are in /usr/src/dev/fb and there is no
man page (at least on RELENG_4). Not sure it even exist in RELENG_[56].

Hello,
I've implemented DNS automatic negotiation and configuration in
pppd (RFC1877). Since it is not a standard thing, I made it an
optional feature of pppd. Some parts of the code were taken from ppp
implementation. I would be greatful for testing of this patch and
for any comments and suggesti

Looks like ldd is doing exactly what you want, take a look at it's sources.

Hello all,
I'd like to add a PCI quirk, which will enable SMBus on boot
(it gets disabled by BIOS). What is the best place in kernel
to do this? I looked through PCI sources, but haven't found
any suitable place for that (not like in USB case).
