Consistent failure during 5.2 buildworld

2004-01-17 Thread RexFelis
Hello all, I have recently updated my supfile to point at 5.2 instead of 5.1, and attempted to upgrade my box from 5.1-p10 to 5.2 via this method, which has worked for me before. Following all the proceedures in the Handbook for building the world, using a freshly cvsupped /usr/src, I always

Hello all, I am running FreeBSD 5.1-RELEASE-p10. I am trying to install OpenOffice 1.1 from ports. I have the LINPROCFS filesystem mounted, and I have added kern.maxdsiz=1073741824 kern.maxssiz=268435456 to my /boot/loader.conf file, as was suggested, but I am still getting the same error

Hello, all. I have been having problems using portupgrade to upgrade atk on my FreeBSD 5.1 machine. Nothing else seems to have difficulty, but an attempt to upgrade atk produces endless amounts of this: fetch: atk-1.4.1.tar.bz2: local modification time does not match remote Attempting to

Problems Bootstrapping FreeBSD Java while Making OpenOffice

2003-09-28 Thread RexFelis
Hello all, I am attempting to build OpenOffice from ports. (Running FreeBSD 5.1-p5) So far I've been able to figure out how to fix everything else that stopped the build, but this just leaves me lost. I don't have a clue what this refers to. The script capture of the error message is:

Problems portupgrading KDE 3.1.2-3.1.4

2003-09-21 Thread RexFelis
I attempted a 'portupgrade -aRr', and it initially failed on QT 3.2, which I was able to manually fix by deinstalling and then making by hand. But another run of 'portupgrade -aRr' failed on building KDE. portversion -l reveals most of the KDE packages and libbonobo have not been upgraded.

Re: User PPP connection problems

Hello, I am no expert, but I use PPP exclusively to set up a connection to the net. One thing I see different in your configuration than in mine is this: set ifaddr 10.0.0.1/0 10.0.0.2/0 255.255.255.0 0.0.0.0 If you are using PPP and you are doing dynamic IP addressing, I succeed with this,

To the people who made the suggestion that solved my problem, I offer my gratitude and thanks. My goal is to be able to play Neverwinter Nights on FreeBSD, so I don't need Linux or Windows anymore. That problem has been solved. Now I have attempted to mount my Windows partition, FAT32, so I

Re: Dial-up Modem Problems

I can't say that I know whether that modem is a winmodem or not, and I do not have the time to google it atm, but I can tell you that if you do end up having to replace it, you should look for a 'controller based' modem. Almost all external modems are controller based, as far as I can tell.

Good to know FreeBSD can mount EXT2 and EXT3 partitions. Thanks for the information. :) The problem remains, however, since I highly favor ReiserFS for use with Linux. EXT2 has given me crash recovery issues and EXT3 does not perform as speedily as ReiserFS. ResierFS just takes whatever I

Yah! Boy does it feel good to track down and solve this problem on my own!!! Here's what I did. I copied the contents of /etc/ppp from my Linux partition to my Windows partition and then compared each corresponding file to it's freebsd counterpart. And what I found was that my resolv.conf

Building KDE3 from ports in 5.0 fails on libmng

2003-03-10 Thread RexFelis
Hello, all: I am not terribly familiar with FreeBSD, but I am learning by getting my hands dirty. To that end, I have installed and updated via CVSup, kernel, system and ports. (5.0-R to 5.0-R p4) Shortly after that, X started crashing and dumping me at the command prompt, and then KDE began
