Does FreeBSD support the vt520? I've looked around in documentation,
but haven't been able to find anything about it. If it isn't yet, I could
probably get my hands on a spare (note single, not plural) if someone is
seriously interested in supporting it. TIA.

IMO tar should live in /bin as it is used to restore a system from tape.
I don't know why ``dump'' is in /usr/sbin

Maybe the soltion is to think out of the box. Maybe temporary
filestore should be a more official OS service. Race conditions would
be far less common if the OS itself was managing the namespace.
You might even expand the capability somewhat. Provide process local,
uid local and global names
Sorry for the world breakages, all, it turns out I was a bit eager to
commit a security fix. World should be compilable again now (at least, if
it breaks it should hopefully not be my fault :-)

The recent commits to PCM, as of a few days back, have given me
problems with my ESS 1868. When I play MP3's with mpg123, I get a lot
of loud pops and clicks during playback. Otherwise, the MP3s DO play

Hi all!
Why a lot of files in /usr/bin(sbin) are static linked?
for example, tar: static - 272832 bytes(83416 dynamic)
is it magic of /usr/src/gnu folder?

I don't know why peter didn't bump the magic-config-version-number.
Hi,
i understand that this means maybe a somwthat
large change in the system, but what do you think
if we have a lok at implementing the CPU scheduler using
weights instead of strict priorities ?
Do we have parts of the kernel which rely on priority
to implement locking etc ?

The release candidate of newmidi is finally ready. The patch for
-current can be found at:
URI: http://people.FreeBSD.org/~tanimura/patches/newmidirc.diff.gz
I will put this patch into the final test stage of 1 month. The date
of merge is hence going to be 11th July 2000.
