No. I can run a sio at 115 kbps on a 386/16 with almost zero of these messages. (But quite possible that the problem has either been fixed, or the PR refers to some other circumstances why this happened.) > > [1995/08/07] bin/661 Hercules is not capable of having a ISO-Latin1 Scree > > Is this a freebsd-bug? Yes. The console driver should remap the character table (as good as possible), and this should be documented in a way so it can easily be found (e.g. comments in /etc/sysinstall). I think it's the latter that's still missing. > > [1995/08/15] i386/692 My modem is not found if my external cache is disabl > > Is this a freebsd-bug or just a faulty computer? The internal modem with emulated UART saga.

No. The long options are deprecated, but still working.

No. umount -f is supposed to ``forcibly'' unmount, so it should not hang but revoke the underlying objects. > > [1995/11/27] bin/841 stale nfs mounts cannot be umounted > > This is a known bogon of NFS, not freebsd. No, unmounting should always be possible (the term `mount' always refers to a local machine). One must be able to get rid of a stale mount, since it's often impossible to ``un-stale'' it again. > > [1996/01/25] kern/971 Default limits for number of processes per user ridi > > Opinion, and most likely fixed. No. The default maxproc limit should be dynamic, dependent on the size of the machine/system. The current fixed value of 40 is too high for a 386/16 (you could still trash this machine with the fork trap), but too low for somebody with 32 MB RAM and a decent X11 workstation. -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
