Hello, I'm having some difficulties with 5.3-RELEASE. I have made a fresh install from the iso image I downloaded. Formatted the entire drive, just to make sure it was clean. I have installed everything of interest via the ports tree. But many things seem to fail randomly. I can use xfe for a while, then blip its gone. pptpclient is the same. Fluxbox generates .core files as well... but its never shutdown on me. xprop has generated a few too. Doesn't seem to be any one app. I'm new to FreeBSD (and *nix in general)... so I have no idea where to begin investigating. I was previously using 5.3-BETA7 and did not have these problems. The only thing I did different this time was to make things from the ports tree instead of pkg_add everything. Is there any info I could/should provide to help the list help me out? (Sorry if this message is not wrapped at 72 char... thunderbird is wrapping it in the gui... but not in the message!?!?) Thanks -- Regards, Eric
