    Can I disable the use of DNS of SSH login?

    Have you tried ssh -v and looked where it exactly stopped? This verbose flag often reveals a lot of usefull information about ssh problems.

    ssh drops client after a few minutes

    Do you have set autologout to another value than 0 in tcsh for example? Or does the connection really quit with a timeout?

    hotplug esata?

    Well, I've an e-sata hdd, too. When I plugged my harddisk, I have to do: # atacontrol detach $right_ata_channel # atacontrol attach $right_ata_channel to get it recognised by the system. I've also read that a # atacontrol reinit $right_ata_channel helps in some cases, but in my not...

    Trouble getting address via DHCP

    Mh interessting. I didn't run into this problem. Have you read pkg-message and comment the old DHCP line? I suppose it has something to do with the old client.

    Trouble getting address via DHCP

    I've recently seen something similar. The Problem in my case was, that the DHCP Server was changed to a redundant server. I don't investigate the problem further and so I can't tell what was the real issue, but installing the original isc-dhcp-client solves my problem. (net/isc-dhcp*) I guess...

    Sound stops when I mount NTFS partition.

    I encountered a similar problem some time ago, but with mount_smbfs. The Problem is, this comes only for the first time, when the kernel module must be loaded. My solution - or no, better 'work around' - was to load the kernel at boot time. Then this problem vanished. I don't analyse this issue...

    Optimizations

    I'm programming numerical software and optimize them. I can tell you we got a lot of trouble with different kinds of optimizations. You have to know what the program is doing and what the flags are doing with the program when you set them. There are some 'global' flags which increase in most...

    With what options was a port built?

    Perhaps a look in the Makefile, especially the CONFIGURE_ARGS reveal what you wanna know? If it is not there what are you looking for, then you have to run configure and look in the config.log file, like Ime described it before. :)

    Shared libraries trouble

    Oh, sry I didn't know, it is a shell script. I don't use acroread at all. But maybe my suggestion helps to solve this problem.

    Shared libraries trouble

    I guess you wanna know something like this: $ ldd `which acroread` Are you sure your ports are up to date? Sometimes a rebuild of acroread and the depended libs, in this case I suppose it is linux-xorg-libs solves the problem.

    Jabber ?

    I would appreciate this, too. :) I thought this the first time I step a paw in this forum and complete my user profile, but I don't wan't to flood this section with suggestions that can wait. I guess the administrators have enought to do to keep the forum running for now. Further you don't...

    Your favorite text based application

    In my opinion screen + irssi (irc client) + mcabber (jabber client) are the ultimate combination for chatting. Mutt for mails is nice, too. :) And I can't live without vim + ctags for programming. ^^

    About ports compilation and -j option.

    Actually I was about to say, that this could be very dangerous. I try that for some time and unfortunately I got some broken packages. :/ Afair the so called "ports 2.0" are able to compile with parallel threads. Oh that sounds nice. I'll try it in future. ^^

    Recommended way of staying up to date?

    I don't think this is such a good idea, because when you update your ports via cron you maybe miss important hints in UPDATING. The worst case is you crash your system and then you have to fix it manually at the latest.
