I don't have POT telephone line neither I have cable connection so I would like to install gnokii 0.4.3 from BSD port collection in order I can connect to the internet through my mobile phone. > > Gnokii depends on several other distfiles which I have to download, write on a cd and take the CD home. How can I exactly know what other distfiles I have to download other than gnokii.tar.gz? When I write the command "make" I got messages that distfiles needed other than indicated in port dependences on www.freebsd.org/ports/comms .

I recommend use the ports tree and build the port from source. Maybe you should consult the handbook for some details I do not explain... :-) 1st) Install the port tree source 2nd) Build cvsup (either with or without gui) 3rd) decide what you want keep up to date (look into /usr/share/examples/cvsup/) 4th) backup all your modifications you madde under /usr/src/ and/or /usr/ports/ 5th) delete the port tree source or the /usr/src or both 6th) use cvsup to keep your sources / ports tree up to date 7th) install portupgrade (if you want, but it's recommented) 8th) update the required ports (as far as you're sure it's ok) 9th) install gnokii, either by cd /usr/ports/comms/gnokii && make install clean, or portinstall gnokii Good luck, Jens > Thanks very much for your answer, > Peter Mucsi. > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org > with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message -- L i W W W i Jens Rehsack L W W W L i W W W W i nnn gggg LiWing IT-Services L i W W W W i n n g g LLLL i W W i n n g g Friesenstraße 2 gggg 06112 Halle g g g Tel.: +49 - 3 45 - 5 17 05 91 ggg e-Mail: <rehsack@liwing.de> Fax: +49 - 3 45 - 5 17 05 92 http://www.liwing.de/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
