Weird Issue with nv 2.1.2 Driver
Hi I am struggling with the nv driver - It does not allow me to use the 1280x1024 mode with my monitor even when I configure the VertHertz etc. manually - However the same configuration file works just fine when I am using the vesa driver instead? Now the really weird thing is that if I generate a configuration file using X -configure it generates a configuration file where even the vesa mode - while entering the correct resolution gets the Wrong Vert and Hortz settings - So some module seems to overwrite the manually entered values Does anybody have an Idea? I would love to be able to use the NV driver in a higher resolution than 1024x768? PS.

Lets give it a try... ;-)
Check the MTU size on your new machine with the MTU set on your
firewall/DSL router. I remember that I had a similar problem years
ago: The ppp-Device connecting to my ISP used a different MTU from my
LAN, so that big packets where dropped when they were received. But
the connection to the target host was opened, and small files (e.g.
index.html on some sites) were transferred successfully.

RE: compiling ports with more than one job
There really two answers possible here - 1) Let's call it one depth e.g. make -j - Which works with some not all ports - Nice when it works and I guess ports/Mk could hold a flag 2) Let's call it width - e.g. the ability to compile packages at the same time given that all dependencies has been resolved 3) combination of 1 and 2 In practical terms option 2 is much more attractive as it is possible to determine that just from the INDEX file and the installed ports. However due to the way compilation options are treated e.g. I am not sure that it is completely safe - I will require some locking during the make (de/re)install phase but possible to handle - It would still cut portupgrade significantly With 15-16000+ ports I think that 1 and 3 are unpractical - however it could make sense to have some packages (kde/gnome) handled with make -j and it seems to work with at least some of the kde packages - but only I think if make extract/patch/configure are run without -j -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of RW Sent: 05 March 2007 21:21 To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: compiling ports with more than one job On Sat, 3 Mar 2007 13:55:53 +0100 (CET) Christian Baer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On Wed, 28 Feb 2007 18:37:33 + RW wrote: > > > There are two problems here.

I don't, it was an analogy. Gentoo has a portage system based on Python that mostly builds software using Gnu make, FreeBSD has a ports system based on BSD make that also mostly builds software using Gnu make. Gentoo can make use of parallel processes by passing -j to gnu make,and IMO this is how it should be done in FreeBSD. The fact that FreeBSD uses Make as its ports scripting language confuses the issue, people expect to be able to type make -j in a ports directory, but when they do that they are applying the -j to the wrong make - it's analogous the python part of Gentoo portage. I don't see any good reason why the ports system *itself* should ever support -j, there's nothing to be gained by it. All that's needed is a better mechanism to tell the underlying build to use multiple processes. > So you mean a MAKE_ARGS= -j 4 would help?
