You might want to try sticking sendmail_enable="NO" into your /etc/rc.conf. There's a bunch of other services that get started by default, /etc/defaults/rc.conf has all the details. That's for FreeBSD 4 and up atleast. If I remember correctly to fix this in versions smaller than 4, just edi

I recall someone on the freebsd-mobile mailing list having a similar problem. What I told them to try was using options VESA in their kernel config or use the vesa.ko kernel module. I looked at it a little more closely and it appears that you might also need the SC_PIXEL_MODE option in your kern

In reference to a problem someone reported on the freebsd-mobile mailing list, I took a look at the handling of the FTP_PASSIVE_MODE environment variable in libftpio. What I found was that it would use passive ftp based on if the environment variable was set or not and didn't acutally check it's

I fixed this obvious problem in the latest message I sent with new Makefile's. Note that there might be some side-effect of making gif into a kernel module. When I was using the gif kernel module I couldn't ping6 to anywhere. Now that it's compiled directly into the kernel I can. I have to do

This all started with wanting to play with IPv6 without rebooting. I forgot to add the gif and faith pseudo-device lines in my kernel config last time I was playing in it. I noticed that gif and faith interfaces don't exist as modules. After playing around with trying to make faith and gif (for

I think people are forgetting that you do not necessarily need to download the entire ISO image in order to make a fresh install of FreeBSD. Back when I started using FreeBSD somewhere around version 2.1, I remember donwloading the boot floppies, then installing the whole deal over FTP, all on a
