I can't find a reference to this value in the IA32/IA64 developer's manual, so it's definitely a bug but I'm not sure where it's coming from. The code that gets executed in the event of the error though is under lapic_handle_error (which is only called in amd64/amd64/apic_vector.S and...

No. Other way around... If it's GENERIC, I don't see why IPv6 should be an issue because gif(4) exists. Make sure to setup the IPV6 variables though in rc.conf. You can also use named -4 if you really suspect it's an IPV4 vs IPV6 issue: -4 Use IPv4 only even if the host...

That works with a standard MBR, but not a non-conventional one, like GPT, made larger to accommodate ZFS -- see the examples section in the gpart manpage for more details.

A quick and dirty solution to this it to call the command like: sudo env VAR=VALUE command It's guaranteed to work whether or not sudo's in the mix without having to edit the sudoers file ;)...

I agree with SirDice. There's a simple way to redo the boot0 install, but then there could be other issues that you'd have to munge through.

Yes, you can to a large extent (you'll have better luck with ext2/ext3), but just beware of shared configuration / metadata files between FreeBSD and your Linux distro.

make.conf is used globally as suggested before, and in make(1): First of all, the initial list of specifications will be read from the system makefile, sys.mk, unless inhibited with the -r option. The stan- dard sys.mk as shipped with FreeBSD also handles make.conf(5), the...

Do you run green_saver by chance?

I'm guessing based purely on your shell prompt (which could be entirely wrong, but..), you were operating as root. One thing that I'm curious about (with jb_fvwm2) as well that you haven't identified is whether or not you're trying (by accident) to mount an NTFS based partition. truss output of...

From /etc/src.conf (for the base system): WITHOUT_INET6 Set to not build programs and libraries related to IPv6 network- ing. When set, it also enforces the following options: WITHOUT_INET6_SUPPORT WITHOUT_INET6_SUPPORT Set to...

Correct me if I'm misunderstanding you, but you're looking for something like emerge -C <package>. ? There are multiple means to do this ... portmaster (third party tool) features this functionality, as does portinstall/portupgrade/etc (third party tool) IIRC. There are most likely other tools...

Taking a stab, this might be a bug with the vga(4) driver in FreeBSD. I'm interested in this too, so I'll poke around and see whether or not it works for my 9600GT card (I'm using blank_saver right now). Also, what version of FreeBSD do you have loaded on the box right now?

Caveat emptor: once you install with the PCBSD media, you can't use the FreeBSD install media without first wiping the first and last sectors of the disk. This is a known issue with sysinstall not fully supporting gpt slicing ala geom(4).

I highly suggest not using a shared /home though because you'll run into issues if you use the same application between FreeBSD and Linux, they happen to read/write to the same files and don't have a common language; for example, the XFCE4 version isn't equivalent between FreeBSD and Linux...

Just for future reference, here's what I do on multiple machines if I want bash: cat >> ~/.shrc <<EOF if [ -x /usr/local/bin/bash ]; then /usr/local/bin/bash -c true && exec /usr/local/bin/bash fi EOF I realize it might seem excessive, but here's a breakdown: NOTE: $- maps to the flags...

There simply isn't an equivalent to this paradigm in the base FreeBSD packaging tool, known as pkg_install. Gentoo's [/var/lib/portage/?]world file lists what the user installs manually (I forget the exact location because I haven't munged around that file for a while now). In FreeBSD...

That's because it's using a wildcard for the subdevice, instead of setting the appropriate chipset specific read clock for the specific subdevice. If you have devinfo -v output that can be provided, I'll see about submitting a patch for that specific case.

Followup posted on your behalf.

Counterstrike doesn't require Linux compatibility; it requires Wine [on FreeBSD] to function. You're probably looking at the steam server...

Sadly, there isn't (at least none that I know of in the near future). X-Fi is a complicated piece of work and the only opensource operating system to come close to having support on the X-Fi chipset Creative cards is linux, and even that is incomplete.
