DP2: nfsiod

Having installed DP2 and said NO to NFS client and server in sysinstall (and there's nothing about them in /etc/rc.conf) I see four nfsiod daemons running after the first boot. Are they supposed to be there? All I can find in the release notes is: >Client-side NFS locks have been implemented. > >

Keeping mdmfs in sync with newfs

Dima, I recently switched two of my diskless crash boxes over to rc.d from the old rc scripts, and discovered that the new rc.diskless code uses mdmfs. Unfortunately, it doesn't appear to support UFS2, since the newfs "-O" flag isn't supported -- and it isn't quite so simple to add, since mdmfs

ACPI and apm_saver?

ACPI works pretty well on my HP Pavilion Notebook. But is it possible to get the apm saver (apm_saver.ko) to work with ACPI? From what I understand, acpi is a superset of apm, and is able to provide some emulation of apm functionality. So, by this principle, shouldn't apm_saver work with acpi

malloc(0) broken?

Hi! A malloc(0) returns always 0x800 on my system. This causes some third-party software to fail, because they expect malloc(0) to return NULL. Is this a bug or a feature? malloc(3) doesn't mention anything. Regards, Marc To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebs
