I need to do a substitution on a bunch of files so I tried find . -type f -exec sed -i 's/regex/replacement/g' {} \; But I get this error sed: 1: "piece of file name": invalid command code . There are no complaints when I don't pass any option, but it doesn't replace anything in that case...

I found that it will let me do mv a.out b.out cp b.out a.out weird.

I am running FreeBSD in a VM with the host OS being Windows. I mounted a folder I shared in Windows using mount_smbfs. In that folder, I have a file (a.out). When I do "cp a.out b.out" I get a "Bad address" error. Anyone have any idea why I'd get this error?

I can't remember where I got the install from. It wasn't /usr/local/eclipse though. I'll try out one of the FreshPorts versions.

Ok, then what about a newer version of eclipse-cdt? I was trying to run 3.1.2. Any idea where I can find a newer version?

From googling around, it seems to be an issue with having Firefox3 installed (which I do) and you need Firefox2. I uninstalled FF3, but does anyone know where I can get FF2 for FreeBSD? I can't seem to find anyone that has it.

I've been trying to get Eclipse-CDT working on FreeBSD. After finally getting it built, when I go to run it, it crashes. I get this error at the command line: /libexec/ld-elf.so.1: /usr/local/eclipse/configuration/org.eclipse.osgi/bundles/80/1/.cp/libswt-mozilla-gtk-3349.so: Undefined symbol...

I've been following this guide http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/x-config.html. When I get to the part where I run Xorg -config xorg.conf.new I get this gray background with a black X as my mouse cursor. At this point the only input I can do is move the cursor...

Nevermind, I had a typo. I'm forbidden from accessing portsnap1, but I can access portsnap4. But I still fail when trying to get the public key from either.

Ok, I tried doing portsnap fetch and it tried updating from portsnap1.freebsd.org and portsnap4.freebsd.org. Both failed and I get a DNS error if I try to go to those sites in my browser. are these invalid sites and I have to configure where it looks for the update somewhere, like I do for...

I've been trying to get any kind of gui running on FreeBSD 7.1. I'm currently working on getting KDE running. When I did pck_add -r kde/kde-3.5.10_2 I got a bunch of warning about outdated packages. So I did portupgrade -a It did it's thing for a while and then starting complaining...
