Isn't this fixed?

I'm sure we can assume this is fixed, as I'm running pine now.

Is this really a bug?

Is this really a bug?

I'm sure this is fixed now.

Is this still present?

I think this is also fixed.

I believe this is how vidcontrol functions now.

Isn't this fixed?

I believe this is also fixed.

Isn't this natural for a slow 386?

I believe this is also fixed.

Is this a freebsd-bug?

I'm sure this is fixed.

I'm sure this is fixed.

> [1995/08/15] i386/692      My modem is not found if my external cache is disabl

Is this a freebsd-bug or just a faulty computer?

> [1995/09/23] docs/735      missing description for mount options in fstab(5) ma

I believe this are documented in mount(8).

> [1995/09/25] gnu/737       FreeBSD-current/src/gnu/usr.bin/gzip/Makefile

I believe this is fixed.

> [1995/09/27] bin/743       vi cannot edit a file where the name starts with +

The workaround is to use "r +" from within vi.

> [1995/10/03] kern/765      umount -f can`t umount a NFS filesystem in use

This is a known bogon of NFS, not umount.

> [1995/10/25] kern/793      ep0 cannot be configured and more.

I believe this to be fixed, as I am using ep0, and it works fine.

> [1995/10/27] misc/796      Network install doesn't update /etc/hosts  FDIV036

I believe this is fixed.

I believe this is fixed.

> [1995/11/25] bin/839       by default, use of "at" is overly restricted

This is an opinion, not a bug.

> [1995/11/27] bin/841       stale nfs mounts cannot be umounted

This is a known bogon of NFS, not freebsd.

> [1995/11/28] misc/848      Inst gripes about geometry but won't accept true val

I've never seen this, and believe it to be either fixed or non-existant.

> [1995/12/09] ports/883     tclX-port does not build properly

I belive this is fixed.

> [1996/01/13] ports/944     Security fixes for Fvwm 1.24r

How is this a freebsd bug?

> [1996/01/17] kern/951      -current kernel crashes with devfs error on bootup

This is -current, I'm sure it is being worked on, so why do a send-pr?

> [1996/01/19] bin/958       ttys file does not include all ptys

If you wan't them all there, you can add them.

> [1996/01/23] ports/968     Netscape & cern_httpd ports out of date/dead links

This is definetly fixed.

> [1996/01/25] kern/971      Default limits for number of processes per user ridi

Opinion, and most likely fixed.

> [1996/01/25] conf/972      inetd.conf should comment out k-services if no Kerbe

By default, these services are enabled, disable them if you don't use 
them, this is not a bug even though they should be disabled by default.

> [1996/02/14] bin/1028      shutdown -r does not seem to always complete

I have never observed this.

> [1996/02/15] bin/1029      cd behaves erraticly if cwd is a mount-point, which 

This is not surprising.

> [1996/02/18] kern/1034     Instant panic in -current

This is -current, it should not be send-pr'd.

> [1996/02/19] docs/1036     List of dead xrefs in man pages

Fixed.

> [1996/02/23] bin/1040      with certain flags, route can reboot your machine.

Needs to be looked into.

> [1996/02/27] gnu/1047      send-pr: Aborting...

Duplicate send-pr.

> [1996/03/11] conf/1076     'make install' fails for /usr/src/share/examples in 

Most likely fixed.

> [1996/03/21] i386/1097     system hang during tape rewind/aic7870 controller

Probably fixed.

> [1996/04/05] kern/1116     Cannot umount stale NFS volumes

Duplicate send-pr.

> [1996/04/06] kern/1121     System crashes on boot up just after the "devfs read

This is -current!

> [1996/04/07] kern/1122     Kernel (current) does not see all memory

This is documented, use options MAXMEM.

> [1996/04/28] kern/1161     -current panic on boot if DIAGNOSTIC option is used

This is -current!

----------------------

I think all of the send-pr's that are -current specific, should be 
removed, as by the very nature of -current, these are things most likely 
being worked on or being fixed.
