Some things may still display text on the 24th line, but that's because
they've always been screens designed to fit into a minimal real-estate
and have hardwired assumptions about the dimensions. They'll be a little
harder to make dynamic.
early enough when the dump device is specified in the config file.
Removed stale comment about configuration root and swap devices.
Don't bother clearing dumplo when dumpdev is set to NODEV. Everything
is controlled by dumpdev.
Fixed the kern.dumpdev sysctl. Writes were handle bogusly.
interfaces. This creates two new tables in the net.link.generic branch
of the MIB; one contains (essentially) `ifdata' structures, and the other
contains a blob provided by the interface (and presumably used to
implement link-layer-specific MIB variables). A number of things
have been moved around in the `ifnet' and `ifdata' structures, so
NEW VERSIONS OF ifconfig(8) AND routed(8) ARE REQUIRED. (A simple
recompile is all that's necessary.)
I have a sample program which uses this interface for those interested
in making use of it.
shared memory size, average unshared data size, and average unshared
stack size were too high by a factor of 128/100, because the program
used a hard-coded hz value of 100. The correct value is the frequency
of the statistics clock, currently 128. The program now uses sysctl
to get the stathz value from the kernel.

later at pkg_delete time to verify that you're deleting what you added.
This, of course, does NOT cover the case where a file you still need
hasn't changed! That's a tougher problem to solve, and this provides
only the minimal amount of safety belt. MD5 checksums are stored in comment
fields, so packages produced with these tools are backwards compatible with
the older ones.
(1) Additional __FreeBSD_version's from <osreldate.h>. Closes PR
docs/1438.
Submitted by: "David E. O'Brien" <obrien@Nuxi.cs.ucdavis.edu>
(2) Make it clear that when submitting a port, the package is not
necassary.
Suggested by: joerg
(3) Recommend people to use send-pr to send us notifications of new
ports and upgrades so that they won't fall between the cracks.
Suggested by: a lot of people
(4) Add a section about Motif and describe REQUIRES_MOTIF and
MOTIFLIB.
Prodded by: chuckr
(5) Revise the licensing problems section and describe the two
variables RESTRICTED and NO_CDROM.
(6) Fill in the section about upgrading. In particular, recommend to
send in diffs of the old and new ports (these are "ports", not the
original source or anything!), so it's easier to see what has
changed.
problem with the 'shell scripts' was found, but there was a 'strange'
problem found with a 486 laptop that we could not find. This commit
backs the code back to 25-jul, and will be re-entered after the snapshot
in smaller (more easily tested) chunks.
