And I have a few problems and questions. 1) Sometime the system loses it links or path to libs. For example: I installed binder. It normally run smoothly. Then for no reason (to me at least) I ran it and got error loading share lib libname can not open or such. This isn't the only app that does it. All the app that do it are X apps. It seems that after using ppp it happens more. 2) Is there a difference between using /stand/sysinstall and /usr/ports/whatever, make install to install packages. Is one way better than the other. There seems to be some difference to me but I not to sure. 3) Where do I find the src sys package. I tried to use doconfig to make a kernal and it told me to get this package, but I could not find it using /stand/sysinstall package method or in the /usr/ports. Roderick P.
