Questions of the syncer process

2000-04-19 Thread Zhihui Zhang
I have two questions related to the syncer process that replaces the old update process: (1) The syncer process is waken up once a second (it sleeps on lbolt). If I have more than 30 mounted filesystems, then each filesystem's dirty data will stay more than 30 seconds. If I only have a couple o

video on its side

Hiya all, Let's see, how do I frame this question? Well, let me tell you what I'd like to do and maybe folks could gently push me in the right direction. :) I want to take a monitor running at 640x480 and physically turn it on its side (yes, I *can* do this :) and then I want to display the text

cscope open-sourced!

2000-04-19 Thread Darryl Okahata
FYI, For those who haven't heard, cscope has been open-sourced by SCO (under a BSD-style license, no less)! See: http://cscope.sourceforge.net/ I've got patches for FreeBSD, as well as a couple bugfixes, in case anyone wants to turn this into a port (I don't have the time, sorry).

FTP_PASSIVE_MODE and libftpio

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

Corrupted disk label and related issues (fwd)

I sent this to freebsd-questions yesterday, and didn't get any responses...looks like Andrew had a similar situation about a month ago, and found a solution which I'm trying to adapt to my own problem. Thing is, I can't even get to the individual partitions
