I did the aout-to-elf instead of make upgrade and things seem a little better. here is my uname -a info: FreeBSD sderdau.ne.mediaone.net 3.1-RELEASE FreeBSD 3.1-RELEASE #5: Thu May 13 23:00:40 EDT 1999 root@sderdau.ne.mediaone.net:/usr/src/sys/compile/ However, I still get alot of errors like these : /usr/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: Shared object "libjpeg.so.9" not found Warning: Unable to load any usable fontsetA Another sympthom is I couldn't start wmaker unless I did startx. If I do xdm and try wmaker I get another /usr/libexec/ld-elf.so.1 error message. I think I may not be able to fix my system to run the way it has been. I'm not knowledgeable enough to know how to fix things. I also shouldn't be emailing you directly instead should be emailing the list. Anyway thanks for you're help prior !! How did you learn so much about FreeBSD ? I've been playing around with FreeBSD now for a couple of years and I don't have 1% of the understanding of the system that you seem to have. What would you suggest someone like me should learn in order to get that understanding that you must have. I mean should I learn to code or something like that? I can set up install etc and I know a little. But I just feel like I should know more and would like to :-) http://www.FreeBSD.org http://www.fsf.org FreeBSD 3.0-RELEASE On Wed, 12 May 1999, Doug White wrote: > On Wed, 12 May 1999, User Sderdau Stephen Derdau wrote: > > > Is there any FAQ or anything on upgrading to 3.1 and doing the > > ELF conversion?
