I have been trying to move /tmp off the / filesystem. This has been causing some weird X11 problems... For example if I # mv /tmp /tmp.old # mkdir tmp # chmod 777 tmp # reboot now I then have problems running startx! (The screen and keyboard shut down, forcing me to reboot the system from another system.) If I move the old tmp directory back, the problem goes away. I assumed /tmp was temporary, and that you should be able to boot with an empty /tmp no problem. Any ideas? -- Christopher Farley Northern Brewer / 1150 Grand Avenue / St. Paul, MN 55105 www.northernbrewer.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
