X-BeenThere: freebsd-stable@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.1 Precedence: list List-Id: Production branch of FreeBSD source code List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Sun, 02 Nov 2003 02:28:47 -0000 Ok, potentially silly observation time - may just be a sign of my brain ossifying ... have upgraded three systems to 4.9-STABLE with a cvsup from 10/31. Two from 4.9 pre-releases and one from 4.8-STABLE. The cursor behavior in the console (and rxvt and xterm) seems to have changed. I seem to recall it having always been a slow blinking block. Now its a non-blinking block. Can't seem to get it to go back to what I remember. vidcontrol -c blink causes to the cursor to blink in syscons but at a very rapid rate. Not sure I see how the behavior of syscons and the X terminals could be related. Only things in rc.conf are 'saver="warp"', 'blanktime="300"' and 'keyrate="fast"'. So, on the basis of this, am I imagining things? Everything else seems fine (with one exception, installing via an NFS mount of /usr/src with values for SENDMAIL_MC and SENDMAIL_SUBMIT_MC set in /etc/make.conf causes installworld to fail while installing sendmail.mc complaining about the file not being found even though it is present but that is a different story). -Darren ______________________________________________________________________ Darren Henderson darren@nighttide.net Help fight junk e-mail, visit http://www.cauce.org/
