Hi all,
I am getting sporadic Xorg / KDE lockups or
process crashes. It seems to be related to hitting the
kern.maxfiles value.
What I am seeing looks like a lot of unclosed file descriptors that are
clogging
the system badly.
FreeBSD 8.0-RELEASE #0: Sat Nov 21 15:48:17 UTC 2009

Yes, try the torrents. I don't seed them for nothing. This is
probably one of the best ways to get FreeBSD.
Here they are: http://torrents.freebsd.org:8080/

With "sound control", you mean a mixer program, correct?
FreeBSD brings its own system program for that - see
"man mixer" for details. There's also a port that provides

Everyone:
The last of the Stac data compression patents, granted in 1991,
expires on May 14th of this year. For a long time, all
implementations of PPP for FreeBSD have had stubs for the Stac
compression methods (in particular, MPPC; see, for example,

I like kaffeine's playlist, but how do the Artist, Album, and track fields get
populated or edited?
I'm asking on FreeBSD because it may be via File Manager and extended

I look forward to becoming the DNS Administrator for my country Kenya.
It is impossible to download FreeBSD 8.2 from any of the mirror sites

Hi,
I have just installed FreeBSD release 8.2 using
FreeBSD-8.2-RELEASE-i386-disc1.iso
and want to install sudo.
I did the following:
# whereis sudo
# cd /usr/ports/security/sudo
# make install clean
but get error messages:
.. Could not find /usr/ports/Mk/bsd.port.mk
