A nice semi-solution to this problem of having to copy lines from
defaults/rc.conf would be a good curses-based rc.conf configuration tool.
It could read in a definition file (or this information could be embedded
into comments in defaults/rc.conf), present a list of configuration knobs
and thei

I just noticed 34 consecutive "/kernel: vnode_pager: *** WARNING *** stale
FS getpages" logged over the course of about 3.5 minutes. This was from
yesterday, so I'm not sure what triggered it. Any insight into what this
means? I'm running current built 8/31.

After an unfortunate hard reboot today, the system fscked everything and
then barfed attempting to mount /, claiming it to be unclean. I dropped
to single-user mode and proceeded to re-fsck / and then tried to mount it
again to no avail. Rebooting didn't help things either.
# fsck -p

The new sound driver (I'm using pcm0 and sbc0) seems to break a lot of
Linux-centric games. Quake2, Q3Test, and snes9x (built from ports) all
have choppy, looping sound, and sometimes die with SIGSEGV or SIGBUS soon
after starting up. Other programs that use sound, like mpg123, work fine.

Because of licensing issues, you have to enable it yourself. See the
instructions in /sys/ufs/ffs/README.softupdates for how to do this.

I just cvsupped a few hours ago and rebuild world and the kernel. After
the build, I noticed that my CD-ROM drives no longer worked, corrected the
kernel config file to use wcd0 instead of acd0, and while I was at it,
updated the bootloader config as per the instructions in
/usr/src/sys/boot/READM

FDC_YE is still marked as broken with newbus. What's the timetable on
getting this fixed, and is there anything I can do to help out? (I've
been looking for an excuse to learn kernel internals, anyway... ;) I'd
