I'm starting to wish I didn't upgrade to 2.1r.. /kernel: pid 261: man: uid 0: exited on signal 11 I can duplicate it everytime on _TWO_ totally different systems! Even completly different installations/configurations. I even installed _new_ simms! Of different brands/vendors. With no success! Somebody else try this and see if yours works please? cd to?? I used /usr/local/bin man -a * |& col -b > /tmp/junk.test The `*` is very important! It seems to work ok modified! ie: man -a f* ... ... seems to work ok! man -a * ... ... does not! I have used this sequence hundreds of times in 2.0r and _NEVER_ had a problem on either of these machines! 2.0r ran flawlesly. As far as I know, For what that means! I never saw any errors that were not produced by my Lack of Knowledge! I did do a search on the archives and read awhole bunch of related messages! But failed to find any clues for a fix! Is there one?? Other then _YOU HAVE FAULTY HARDWARE_! On the other note! I belive 2.1r runs faster! (At least it seems to) I most definatly like all the new Configuration methods! :) The Tree/Files orginazition is alot better! Definatly a better sysinstall, Novice method bites though. :( But custom does the trick.. Strange comming from a ``Newbie``?? 11 Novice installs and couldn't get it right! 1 custom and I'm a happy FreeBSD'er Novice seemed confusing to me! Must be my lack of Knowledge.. :( Overall I am impressed! Nice job! Take care! Gary ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Improve America's Knowledge... Share yours The Borg... Where minds meet (207) 929-3848
