D'oh! But it still doesn't work: irb(main):001:0> require 'rubygems' => true irb(main):002:0> require 'Qt4' LoadError: no such file to load -- Qt4 from /usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:36:in `gem_original_require' from...

I'm trying to install and use qtruby, but without much success. I tried installing the gem through the gem install process, but gem couldn't find one. Then I tried installing the devel/kdebindings4-ruby port. It complied and installed just fine, but "require 'Qt4'" in irb produces...

This: ZFS RAID recommendations: space, performance, and MTTDL might be helpful.

This has been an irritating problem, especially since I don't know how to fix it. When I open a page, say kde.org in Konq, the images are missing and the text <div>s appear in strange places. I go to "View" -> "View Mode" and change to Webkit and the page looks normal, except not rendered as...

Thanks! The important thing is that it's not my fault. KDE 3 has always been a source of problems to me. I got koffice to install from the package, which should be sufficient for now, before I do some major port scrubbing. I love the KDE 4 series, and will never look back. Thank you for all...

I am trying to install Koffice (editors/koffice-kde4) from the ports tree. Each time I run it, make fails with the following error: http://pastebin.com/KkFKcau2 I am running FreeBSD 8.2-RELEASE amd64; my ports tree as well as all ports have been newly updated and scrubbed. Does anyone...

change default soundcard dsp pcm device Making a symlink won't work, because chances are that there is alrady a /dev/dsp that was set up at boot time. This line: link dsp1 dsp DOES NOT WORK! so don't do that. The only way I found to permanantly and effectively change my soundcard, is...

Thanks! I tried building according to the instructions, but of course ./autogen.sh --prefix=/opt/xorg came to its first problem and quit: configure.ac:36: error: xorg-macros version 1.8 or higher is required but 1.6.0 found Ports still has 1.6.0, so I guess that this is one of a set...

So it probably is my card? I guess the thing to do would be to file a bug report, but I don't even know where.

My xorg.conf: http://pastebin.com/MmxXciLD logfile: http://pastebin.com/VUvwTRHL

This is no longer a problem on 8.2-RELEASE I have my workstation booting to a system console, and I like to start X manually with the startx command. No problems. The problems start when I try to switch to a virtual console after X is started. Screen goes blank (no input at all to...

Thanks! "make clean" only takes a couple seconds on my (not spectacularly fast) machine, but yeah, still not quite as fast as rm.

OK, it seems that omitting to "make clean" was indeed the problem. Since my searches have uncovered several others with this same problem, perhaps inserting that step in the Handbook might not be a bad idea. I know "make clean" is obvious for most but .... Admin, please mark thread as "solved."

Did I mention that I forgot to do "make clean" ? Am trying it now, but rebuilding world takes time. If it is successful, I will mark thread "solved."

I am following '24.7 Rebuilding “world”' from the FreeBSD handbook step-by-step. The only thing that I'm doing differently is that I am not booting into single user mode (for some reason, my keyboard does not work in single user mode, don't know why, figure it's a problem for another day)...

I've been trying to figure out what does what when it comes to graphics. My impression is that 3D acceleration comes from the OpenGL library. For the system to be able to use it, it must communicate through the radeon driver, which is provided by X.org and is, in theory, "platform independent"...

You are not the only one, I am getting the same error: [root@... ~/DTraceToolkit-0.99]# ./hotkernel Sampling... Hit Ctrl-C to end. dtrace: invalid probe specifier #pragma D option quiet profile:::profile-1001hz /arg0/ { @pc[arg0] = count()...

I have an HD5700 series card. I know that 3D acceleration is currently unsuported in the standard radeon driver for this card, but ... Following the instructions on this page seemed to at least have given me smoother 2D acceleration (maybe by accident) but, of course, no 3D. The question...

I am a new to ZFS, and am finding this simple task incredibly frustrating. Since this page came up over and over in my searches, I am going to try to answer the question subject WITHOUT referring to the man page, in the hopes that others can have an easier time with this than I. I messed up...
