How should I install XFree86 4.0.2 on a system running a -current snapshot
from January 20? I tried downloading the binaries from xfree86.org, but
Xinstall.sh complained that my extract file was bad (it wasn't), and when I
ran 'sh Xinstall.sh -check' it told me that "binaries are not available

Hi,
After /boot/loader is moved to /boot/loader.old, the install of the new
/boot/loader can fail for whatever reason, leaving a computer that
cannot automatically bootup, since someone has to type in
/boot/loader.old at the boot prompt. I suggest that if the boot process
can't find /boot/loader i
Hey all,
I've lately been trying to dig into why OpenPackages make(1) currently
doesn't compile on FreeBSD but does on OpenBSD. There is a (very
slight) difference between their sys/time.h headers.
The timespec* stuff is hidden behind the _KERNEL aura on FreeBSD, but
not on OpenBSD. This is ma

Is it just me or does 'syslogd -s' exhibit just a little bit too
much paranoia about allowing socket connections? I was futzing
with a Perl script that needed to syslog(3) some stuff and after
much hair pulling I realized that 'syslogd -s' didn't even allow

Still doesn't help. There are (at least) two different ways of setting
the hostname, one being a syscall and the other being a sysctl. One

I have a recent -current that hangs in 'make -j36 world'.

OK, please try this, then; change the HARVEST_RING_SIZE in
sys/dev/random/yarrow.h to a smaller power-of-2 (256 or 128 would
be good), and let me know how that helps-or-not.
Thanks!

If it helps at all, it's marginal. I still get skips.

This is directly traceable to entropy harvesting by /dev/*random.
I know it's not an option if you need to use ssh, but not loading
random.ko will fix the sound problems when moving the mouse or
typing. It doesn't fix the 'hwptr went backwards' messages, though.

Do you have an easy way to narrow it down to CCD by doing the same
thing but without ccd involvement?

I don't agree with this change.
hostname != name-that-IP-address-resolves-to.
I can see how loggin the IP address (or some manifestation thereof) to
a central logger, but this is too strong.
Example: My laptop has a hostname set for my home network, and I connect
it to my work network and DHCP
