Hehe, I knew that.
My point was that the entire package isn't built and the author's
going GPL anyway and since nobody recommended it ... That sure would
make a nice port ;-)
For the original poster gtags/htags is an excellent tool for your
purposes

I think the Haifa scheduler is only really effective on pure RISC processors

Read the Intel paper on UUIDs and GUIDs and
The comments say that the flag LK_INTERLOCK means "unlock passed simple
lock after getting lk_interlock". Under what circumstances are we going to
need two simple locks (release the first one after getting the second
one)? I can not understand this easily from the source code.
Any help is appre

I actually made a bootable CD which installs a modified version of FreeBSD, with
our product running on on top of it. The CD automatically boots up, installs
everything, configures everything and then it asks you for a password. At this

With all due respect, part of the whole point of UNIX is that you don't

Why not tell us what you're actually trying to achieve (instead of

It's easy to read the harware the bios detects ( it's in the 64 bytes you

In DOS it's possible to load the AX register with DA8C and generate a
int 15, which will return the BIOS version string and the chipset
identification int CL register. How do i do it in FreeBSD, and how do i
generate a interrupt for that manner ?
