Hi, I have installed FreeBSD 7.2 on an old laptop. It's only for fun and learning. I wanted to make my console use full 1024x768, so I followed this howto: http://kimklai.blogspot.com/2007/05/howto-freebsd-console-framebuffer.html # make buildkernel KERNCONF=GENERICVESA Gives me after quite long time this error message: make: don't know how to make /usr/src/sys/sys/gdefs.h. Stop *** Error code 2 Changes to GENERIC: +options VESA +options SC_PIXEL_MODE -options SMP -device apic -device eisa I would like to disable things I don't need, because the laptop is quite old and slow and don't have too much RAM. The laptop is an old Dell Latitude CPt C-series, 400MHz PII, 256 MB RAM, 6.5GB HDD. If I succeed I will try to disable other thing in the kernel to optimize even more. But perhaps I managed to disable somethig vital? TIA, Mikael
