ifdown and /proc/net/dev

2010-12-08 Thread Mats Erik Andersson
Hello there, it seems to me that the linux-ism in /proc/net/dev is the cause for a dozen errors from "ifdown" at shutdown. The complaints are non-existent interface names. The explanation is that "/proc/net/dev" mentions "eth0", while the correct interface is "bge0", and the like, in GNU/kFreeBSD.

Hi, I installed a fresh kfreebsd-i386 squeeze last night and I also tested xorg. I used, apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-via xterm openbox xinit Ofcourse a lot of more stuff went in.. Anyways, My x works flawless and so does xterm, I had no problems using openbox to launch a working xterm.
