Re: am I the only one, wrt gcc44 -- it is failing and I can't build octave or much elseHere are partial listings of my config files. Add these entries to your config files and see if that does the trick. I can't be 100% sure that everything is required, but it is what I have, and it works. Attached is the xorg.conf file I generated. Place it in the directory /etc/X11/. When you have done these things, make sure your user belongs to the group "wheel", then login. To start X, give the command:
startx You should get 3 windows, one of them labeled "login" in the title bar. If you type "exit" while inside this window, then return, that will end your X session. You will have some "fatal error" messages in your console window when X finishes. Also, make sure you have installed the nvidia drivers per my other postings. You can check if you have the package installed by typing: pkg_info | grep nvidia You should see at a minimum: nidia-driver-185.18.29 NVidia graphics card binary drivers for hardware OpenGL ren You have to build this packages and install it. This process is documented in the NetBSD documents and my other postings for installing FreeBSD on a Compaq Presario CQ60.

Re: am I the only one, wrt gcc44 -- it is failing and I can't build octave or much elseI'm sorry fellows.
You guys have given me great support and apparently I didn't get back to you. I'm sorry, I'm not very polite some times. I will try to be more careful about this. Okay -- I was able to get my mouse working. I made a ServerFlags section in my xorg.conf and suddenly!, my mouse moved. (Here you can assume a remark not in evidence...) Next, I have wonderful X sessions now. Next, I am prepared to nuke the /usr/ports area if I am told to do that -- I know it can be mechanically rebuilt in about an hour. (A past note from Kenneth gave me this instruction and while I was a little nervous I did it; And wow!, I was so impressed as I watched it come back.) Question: Does the rebuild process examine the pkg_info results and load up the directory appropriately?. or is it "one size fits all?" Question: Does anyone have a solution for doing a general machine backup to one file? So that I can back the machine up and later, subsequently, perform a simple restore. Because I've been using the machine very heavily now, and I usually find that my own manual backups miss one thing or another... You've probably had the same experience. Now, I see others asking for such a feature/mechanism. What's possible? As for gcc44, I am fairly certain that it's actually broken -- that the port itself is broken and that it isn't my incompetence, that the port itself is mis-configured or mis-coded. Oh., and in a conversation with an HP technical representative recently, he told me that my taking down windoz to install FreeBSD constituted a "machine downgrade."
