Mouse Trails?

My sight is deteriorating. I can still see and read the screen, but sometimes locating the mouse pointer (LXDE here) is difficult. Is there a port which will give me mouse trails when the rodent is moved? Thanks. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mail

Re: Laptop Fn key causes X (Gnome 2) to sleep immediately

At the moment it is not clear to me at which layer the issue is originated. In fact the acpi_ibm module doesn't work completely for the Lenovo X121e (brightness control with Fn+F8/F7 nonfunctional), so the issue might be related to this. I shall file a PR during the day. Kind regards, Matth

NAT loopback using natd and ipfw

Does anyone know how to get NAT loopback (aka NAT hairpin or NAT reflection) working with natd and ipfw? It seems to work with the in-kernel NAT without the need for configuration, but not if you're using natd. I have a feeling it may be something do do with the ipfw "diverted-loopback" test

Wow myricom still around... used to use the lanai stuff never on bsd though. All FDR Infiniband these days. Are you using the myrinet protocol or ethernet, just curious. Glad you got it working! On Aug 16, 2013 8:12 PM, "aurfalien" wrote: > > On Aug 16, 2013, at 8:47 AM, aurfalien wrote: > >

Spoke to soon. Fine for a while (doing a 5 day rsync of 38TB) but getting those errors every 7 min. And I'm only getting 1.24Gb/s over a 10Gb jumbo link. Definitely causing connection issues. Using it for ethernet. Gonna go in tomorrow and give my Solarflare another shot as it was giving me i
