if_fxp is fine, the bug is in kern/uipc_mbuf.c. Just update it, or change the default value of mcl_pool_max to 0 and rebuild your kernel. A more complete fix will follow today. cheers luigi On Mon, Aug 12, 2002 at 05:07:13PM +1000, Gregory Bond wrote: > I have a system with buil

I have a system with buildworld/installworld last done on about 1 June. It's a pretty plain-jayne HP P4 with an on-board fxp0 interface. Did a cvsup, buildworld and buildkernel and installkernel on RELENG_4 from about 1900 UTC on Satuday 10th. Rebooted before doing installworld (just to make

BASH using up major CPU while idle. Could it be caused by portupgrade?

2002-08-11 Thread lewwid

Rumor has it that this is caused by circular dependencies. Try building with make rather than portupgrade. On Sun, Aug 11, 2002 at 11:07:42PM +0800, Benny Chee wrote: > hi, > > i saw the post in -stable b4, i would like to know if there's any solution to >the problem when doing a portupgr
