It prints in color just fine. The printer autodetects color in the data and prints it in color unless I tell it not to. I don't actually have much need to print in color but I couldn't pass up the price for a color laser printer and it's nice to have on the occasions I do need to print in color...

Hi shepper. Like you I bought a nice Brother printer on sale from NewEgg, the HL-3170CDW with BR-script3 support. I have also had some issues which I am not entirely sure of the cause. I have both print/ghostscript9-base and graphics/xpdf installed mainly for their pdf2ps and pdftops to use as...

Thanks for the information Chris_H! Yet another thing I was unaware of and overlooked. Heck I just got done updating the driver not 30 minutes ago. Also I have documentation turned off for the port.

For those who are unaware like I was. You can find documentation for Nvidia's X.org driver at http://http.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/ Hope this helps those that were unaware of this documentation and/or are having issues with their configurations. I would also like to suggest stickying this...

Works fine for me. I went from 8.2 to 10.0. I did a fresh install twice. Once to gauge installation size, and another for the final layout. Rebuilt all of my ports, built a custom kernel and I was good to go. I haven't noticed any difference in boot speed. Plus clang compiles much faster than...

I'm glad to see the forums going open source. I hope everything gets sorted well. That said, there is no thread title under 'Last Post' on the main page. Just the last person to post in that category.

Allow me to direct you to the fine FreeBSD documentation. http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/disks-encrypting.html

Very nice writeup! I learned something new today.

What does file -s /dev/cd0 say about the disc?

Set the owner of cd0 to root:operator and add your user to the operator group. This should allow you to mount cd0 as a normal user. If you want to burn as a normal user set the pass device associated with the drive to the same owner and permissions as the cd device.

Do you have the udf kernel module loaded?

Hmm. I like that idea better than a link. Must investigate further.

Remount your /usr filesystem read-write then create the link then remount it as read-only again. As long as the linked directory is read-write you shouldn't have any problems.

Link your new ports directory to /usr/ports/. This way you don't have to change any configuration. I myself have my ports tree under /usr/local/ports/ and then link it to /usr/ports to keep / from getting cluttered.

Tried two other floppy drives (same model) and get the same results. Complete freeze within 0-2 seconds of initiating write. Can't even do a newfs on them. I have other older floppy drives but they are in storage or other systems. Guess I'll try some live CD's of 8.2 and 9.0 and see if I get the...

You beat me to it. I was looking for that one. ;)

I saw that article. I was kind of annoyed by the comments. As a former GNU/Linux user I found FreeBSD to be better in every way.

Don't put the full header path in your source files. Use what the gtk+ documentation says. That's why they use pkg-config to tell gcc where to find the header files.
