Greetings,
I'm currently running FreeBSD 2.1.5R (the CDROM) and decided to
upgrade the XFree to 3.2 because I upgraded to a Virge based
video card. I downloaded the necessary .tgz parts from
ftp.freebsd.org. Here's the problem, when I untar them with
find . -name "*.tgz" -exec tar -xvzpf {} \;
I get the directories that look like
bin drwxrwxrwx ....
If I leave the p option out of the tar I get
bin drwx------ ....
How do I get the X11 stuff unarchived with decent attributes so
that non root accounts can run X but not trash the contents?!?
Thanks
Mark
