This had been discussed/mentioned on ports@ mailing list, and possibly on questions@ too; search for Doug Barton's messages during the last month. In short term, set local_startup & possibly local_periodic to the actual directories ... http://groups.google.com/group/mailing.freebsd.ports/msg/2604cd508c3ca533 You see $local_startup currently, at least on 6-STABLE, is set to /usr/{X11R6,local}. And after the X11 Windows System update to xorg 7.x, /usr/X11R6 would be a symbolic link to /usr/local (if you had followed the official|supported directions), which leads to double runs of /usr/local/etc/rc.d. See ... http://groups.google.com/group/mailing.freebsd.ports/msg/dd286acc00ef71d4 The proper, and long term, solution is to fix /etc/rc.subr, for local start ups, so that symbolic links do not cause multiple runs of the same script. A initial patch had been submitted to rc@ list by yours truly based on initial work by Doug ... http://groups.google.com/group/mailing.freebsd.ports/msg/653b2a0f3cfdb76f http://groups.google.com/group/mailing.freebsd.ports/msg/1d0f640cc8bb6433 http://groups.google.com/group/lucky.freebsd.rc/browse_thread/thread/cd21685e1b8c35cd/ ... for some reason the patch had been stripped in message to @rc, which I had initially sent to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Note that above patch does not deal with periodic scripts running twice (noticed wrt PostgreSQL port). - Parv -- _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
