Woes of xorg 7.2 upgrade ...

I've been struggling now for 2 weeks trying to do the xorg upgrade, following the upgrading instructions to a tee, but it has turned into a complete mess. If worse comes to worse, what it the best way to proceed? Is there an easy way just to reinstall xorg from scratch? Thanks a lot in advance.

mfi RAID monitoring

Hello, the mfi(4) manpage briefly mentions the /dev/mfi? device, and that it provides a "simple management interface". Is there any way to monitor the health of an array (the only thing of interest in this case) using this interface, other than getting the proprietary Linux blob to work? (I could

Php5 port and Apache Module

I can see that if I build the php5 port it defaults to CLI and CGI mode but the Apache module is not built. Am I wrong when I assume that the Apache Module will have the best performance? I guess that I'd just like to understand the engineering decisions behind the default in the port's configu

USB disk and write cache

How do you set a USB disk's write cache to write-through mode? As far as I can tell, putting "hw.ata.wc=0" in loader.conf only affects directly connected PATA/SATA disks, not disks connected via a USB-to-*ATA bridge. Perhaps via camcontrol? But "camcontrol modepage da0 -l -v" returns nothing. __

Re: what causes error -- ELF interpreter /libexec/ld-elf.so.1 not found

I believe that this is a memory sub-system bug somewhere because anything equal to or below 1G options MAXDSIZ="(1024*1024*1024)" will work regardless how many memory is installed in the system. I doubt this could be a hardware related issue although is memory size related. Finally find c
