(yawn ...) I have read some of the recent messages about X not working on -CURRENT as well as other issues. Although my -CURRENT sources are the same (last cvsup on 06-Mar-2000 11pm GMT), I seem to have solved most of my difficulties. Remark I Since I am a bit paranoid, I remade the world once more (exactly by the book, except for m.m. of course), and, wait for it, I met NO errors in making installworld. NO errors. Even sysinstall, after making (it) clean, was made smoothly. I am running a full-blown -CURRENT :-)) [wild screams of joy censored] In the past few weeks, under a -STABLE installation of mine (which was to become my present -CURRENT), I had compiled XFree86-3.3.6 with PAM support, among other things. As I wrote a couple of days ago, I met authentication errors with my freshly-(re)made -CURRENT. However, my pam.conf and ttys files were perfectly correct. Thus I recompiled X (with PAM support yet again!) and this time ... it worked seamlessly. Am I the sole person running X (compiled with PAM support) without problems under -CURRENT ? :-) HTH, Salvo To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
