Hi and thanks again to all who make FreeBSD the best OS in the land. :) After upgrading to samba4-4.0.8, /net/samba4, I was no longer able to run /usr/local/sbin/swat in the usual way: http://localhost:901 despite swat's entry in /etc/inetd.conf being in correct form: swat stream tcp...

Hi and Happy Hot Summer. In trying to upgrade the nvidia-driver, I somehow lost the use of the totem-audio-preview . My nvidia-driver didn't upgrade, even with a: $ sudo portupgrade -R nvidia-driver but that's not this issue. Basically now, if I hover the mouse over an .MP3, in...

Dies_Irae: Thanks!! That tip got the build/install to work! Updated my ports and upgraded graphics/giflib. Thanks again! However, mplayer run as link gmplayer won't run on its own: ./gmplayer & [1] 8884 [/usr/local/bin]$ MPlayer SVN-r34821-snapshot-4.6.3 (C) 2000-2012 MPlayer Team...

In attempting to install multimedia/mplayer from ports, cd /usr/ports/multimedia/mplayer sudo make install clean I get a build error like this: libmpdemux/demux_gif.o: In function `demux_open_gif': demux_gif.c:(.text+0x253): undefined reference to `GifErrorString' demux_gif.c:(.text+0x281)...

First of all, thank you FreeBSD and Gnome teams for a great workstation! After a few years with FreeBSD and now one year with Gnome Desktop, I am really happy and getting the hang of things. :h So everything is working great. I have just two questions... When I take a look at System >...

OK! With the help of papabob and richardpl in this thread http://forums.freebsd.org/showthread.php?t=11431 I was able to solve this!! I had the exact same setup and issue (using an NVIDIA GT240 GPU) and it was just a matter of finding the answer in the forum. So THANKS all for the great...

Thanks. I'm all set up already with linux-flashplugin10. $ pkg_version -v | grep flashplugin linux-f10-flashplugin-10.1r85_1 = up-to-date with port I really appreciate all of your help. Z.

I did, but not sure if it applies to me. Here is what I have: $ locate libssl.so.5 /usr/local/lib/compat/libssl.so.5 /usr/local/lib32/compat/libssl.so.5 $ locate libssl.so.7 /usr/compat/linux/lib/libssl.so.7 Think I should try anyway? Thanks!, Z

Thanks ( & Y'assou?:) ), sk8harddiefast, My Native Opera is working fine and shows the native Flash plug-in listed in its default path. So Flash video plays really nice, but without sound. Sound works great on my system otherwise. Any other ideas? Maybe with Pulseaudio somehow? (which I've...

Hi and I apologize for bringing this issue up again. I have deinstalled www/swfdec-plugin, and then followed the Handbook under Browsers section and re-installed the Flash plugin. No errors during ["$ nspluginwrapper -v -a -i"] and now I can view Flash videos everywhere using Firefox 3.6.12...

I think I solved my problem. Through looking around this great forum, especially here http://forums.freebsd.org/showthread.php?t=10562 (thanks people!) and off-site, http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/forumdisplay.php?f=47 I learned that there are issues with my GPU, an EVGA/NVidia GeForce GT 240...

Been having random system freezes since I built the system in May. It will run fine for a few days then just freeze with no mention of anything I can use in /var/log/messages or var/crash. It'll reboot fine, then throw itself into a long fsck. The fsck will find and fix things as the...

I just upgraded to Gnome 2.30.1 and while Gnome 2.30.1 seems to work fine and perhaps better than 2.28.1, I too get these in /var/log/messages at startup: gnome-session[1561]: WARNING: Could not launch application 'at-spi-registryd-wrapper.desktop': Unable to start application: Failed to...

Could someone please point me to the answer to this? I assume there is an answer, I just can't find it yet so sorry for any duplication of question here. Anyway, on my home rig, a FreeBSD 8.0 AMD64, Gnome 2.28 and Epiphany 2.28, and FireFox 3.6.3 machine... ... I can get flash videos to...
