I don't think it is sufficient. My understanding is that microcode has to be updated on every boot. sysutils/devcpu-data installs /usr/local/etc/rc.d/microcode_update that takes care of applying latest microcode on startup.

This got pulled into my /etc/make.conf as suggested in UPDATING. Do you know how to make this option for ports only?

I didn't have /etc/src.conf at the time of building and have been frequently updating from svn to see if the issue goes away. I've started seeing this error around Aug 6th according to my build logs so I excluded the problem of being in the middle of a big change commit. And I haven't changed...

Hi guys, I've been using instructions for rebuilding from source from the handbook, but recently I've started seeing failures to compile the kernel. World builds fine, but kernel fails to build with: cc -c -O2 -pipe -fno-strict-aliasing -std=c99 -g -Wall -Wredundant-decls -Wnested-ex terns...

I don't have enough knowledge about file and how base's implementation differs from the sysutils/file, but if I had to figure it out I would use devel/valgrind to profile /usr/bin/file and identify where it is spending most of this time. Note: probably compiling a debug version of this utility...

Re: pkg + portmaster, unable to update a port. Thanks, WITH_NEW_XORG did the trick.

Re: pkg + portmaster, unable to update a port. I thought it by default goes with a newer version, because I came across this in /usr/ports/UPDATING If it is important to stay on the old versions, it is possible to specify WITHOUT_NEW_XORG= in /etc/make.conf to get the old xorg distribution...

Hi, I'm using Portmaster for port updating. However, I use pkg version -v -l'<' to see what new ports are available. I've been using Portmaster/pkg version successfully but this week I messed up something, so now I see that a new x11/xorg-server is available, but running portmaster -Bdi...

Can you elaborate on your use case? I think it is confusing right now(at least for me). By the time the program is ran there is no source code, the program itself is binary. This is usually acomplished by the build tool you are using to compile your program, not by the program itself. For...

Apologies, meant to say CC, CXX, CPP instead of cc, c++, cpp.

I don't have my /etc/make.conf handy to doublecheck, but it seems to me you are supposed to override cc,c++,cpp, however, you are overriding gcc,g++ instead. I think that will not work.

Is this the only error that you get? Did you just run make install or did you do the changes as instructed in docs?

I believe you are talking about libc++ which is a part of LLVM project. AFAIK it is not complete yet and by the time FreeBSD 9 was released the situation was even worse. You may try to follow build instructions on their website.

Does it power off during some heavy load, e.g. compilation? If yes, then as SirDice said it might be because of overheating. Otherwise, it might be because of voltage problems.

I had a similar problem when kwin and Xorg (and later hald) heavily used CPU just right after my login even if I run any application. The reason for that was powerd. I used it and set dev.cpu.0.freq in sysctl.conf in order to reduce the performance, because my laptop was overheating. After...

As far as I know, Android was a startup later acquired by Google. So the decision was made before Android became Google's Android.

I guess it was one of the historically established decisions, i.e. authors (as most of others) thought that Linux is more popular. But I wish Android used FreeBSD.

Noone advised be to set CFLAGS that way. I didn't touch /etc/make.conf at all. After upgrading my system to 8.1 a picked the new file when running mergemaster. The only modification was done, as it appears, by perl port. Anyway, I will keep in mind what you said.

I found this problem mentioned in thisfreebsd mailing list.

My /etc/make.conf is as follows: CFLAGS= -O -pipe #avoid compiling profiled libraries NO_PROFILE=true CPUTYPE?=core2 # added by use.perl 2010-10-16 18:32:28 PERL_VERSION=5.12.2 I removed CFLAGS and tried to...
