I have FreeBSD-9.1 amd64 and i3wm 4.4, first time I have problem with i3bar where is also i3status. Actually every 2 min or so i3bar is breaking for no reason, everything else is working great. Any idea how to solve this problem? please?

I was also asking on #i3 but they asked me for i3log which I don't have for some reason in my /var/log. So, if somebody can solve this. I would be very thankful.
 
i3 4.4 contains a bug in it's IPC code. It lacks a loop around reads and writs on a pipe. This causes incomplete writes for large messages. This bug is not observable on Linux because the pipe buffer size is larger on Linux. The bug is fixed in the i3-master tarball.
