I'm still think what would be the best way to update via CVS & ports to the xerver 1.6.0; maybe the cleanest way would be: # rm /var/db/pkg/* # rm -r /usr/local/* # rm -r /usr/ports # cd /usr # cvs checkout ports # cd /usr/ports/x11/xorg # make install and generate from the than installed ports the packages with pkg_create to install them as updates on the smaller EeePC.... while I'm thinking about, it would be nice to get the alpha-console back to a usable state; when the X server crashes it let the display in nonsense output; all other is still working, i.e. I can use Alt-F2 to go to another alpha console, can login and reboot, but all this without seeing what I type; is there some tool/command to reset the VGA so that the output is visible again? I could insert this into the ~/.xinitrc after the call of 'startkde' and all would be fine until updating the X11 server; any idea? matthias -- Matthias Apitz Manager Technical Support - OCLC GmbH Gruenwalder Weg 28g - 82041 Oberhaching - Germany t +49-89-61308 351 - f +49-89-61308 399 - m +49-170-4527211 e <matthias.apitz@oclc.org> - w http://www.oclc.org/ http://www.UnixArea.de/ People who hate Microsoft Windows use Linux but people who love UNIX use FreeBSD.
