Re: ports: make config-recursive doesn't really

from Gary Aitken : I'm trying to build a script to rebuild and reinstall everything I have installed from ports. I don't want to have to keep checking on it and filling out the +appropriate check boxes for options. I naively assumed: for port in $ports do cd /usr/port/$port make c

Re: Which FreeBSD for Intel i7-2600S and DQ67SWB3?

- Original Message - From: David Christensen I have a new computer with an Intel i7-2600S processor and DQ67SWB3 motherboard that I'd like to run with ZFS, virtual machine host, desktop, Samba, and terminal server (on second NIC). Can this be done with FreeBSD; if so, which distributi

Why Clang

Has the discussion on why change to clang been made available? I would like to know the reasoning. Or, is it simply a gratuitous change? Tom Dean ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questio

Re: HP networked printer -- hp-setup won't use, hp-probe finds

Polytropon, you mention ppd files (.ppd or .ppd.gz). Is this the binary plugin that hplip was unable to install for me? Or am I grasping at straws? Somehow I thought the binary plugin was much bigger than the .ppd.gz files found in /usr/local/share/ppd/HP/ Tom

MK_CLANG_IS_CC mis-formed when compiling ports

I built FrfeeBSD 9 with WITHOUT_CLANG="Yes" When I try to build the net/bwn-firmware-kmod/ I get an error that MK_CLANG_IS_CC is mis-formed. If I define this in make.conf, I get an error that the user may not set this. If I use 'make MK_CLANG_IS_CC="no"' the port compiles. How do I fix this
