I am curious - given that OpenBSD ships each RELEASE with X , but applications like Firefox will not work without installing another DE, like XFCE; why not ship OpenBSD with the basic X, but with the necessary libraries to allow FireFox to run and other applications like R to output graphics? Also

thunar-settings

2013-09-14 Thread Richard Thornton
This file located in /usr/local/bin seems to prevent thunar from working properly on sparc64, when xfce is running under a user. When xfce is running under a root account, there is no problem. On amd64, there is no issue period. On my sparc box, I removed this file, and now thunar works properly.

Re: pkg_add hung?

2013-09-15 Thread Richard Thornton
sometimes a mirror will time out, I have seen this, so I swap between ftp3.usa.openbsd.org and ftp5.usa.openbsd.org; I have had very good response from both of these; alos sometimes, a file is missing, and this throws an error. Then I switch mirrors, kill the pkg_add process and restart pkg_add.

general ports question

2013-09-18 Thread Richard Thornton
So if one has a 5.3 release system running, but finds a desired package in say 5.1, will pkg_add work on this, assuming I adjust the PKG_PATH to point to a 5.1 package folder? Or will doing this cause other instabilities? Thanks, Richard
