> > Hi : > > Here is the port of xsysinfo-1.1, which is designed for FreeBSD. > > ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/incoming/xsysinfo-1.1-port.tgz A few things wrong with this port, I'm afraid: Problem #1: jkh@time-> make >> xsysinfo-1.1.tar.gz doesn't seem to exist on this system. >> Attempting to fetch from ftp://ftp.edu.tw/Operating-Systems/FreeBSD/packages/jdli/source/. NCTUCCCA.edu.tw(ftp.edu.tw) Anonymous FTP Archives, WELCOME from time.cdrom.com. /Operating-Systems/FreeBSD/packages/jdli/source/xsysinfo-1.1.tar.gz: No such file. Cause: Failure to set EXTRACT_SUFX in the Makefile to `.tgz' since this isn't a .tar.gz file. Fixed. Problem #2: jkh@time-> make <fetch step> ===> Extracting for xsysinfo-1.1 ===> Patching for xsysinfo-1.1 ===> Applying FreeBSD patches for xsysinfo-1.1 cannot open /a/ports/sysutils/xsysinfo/patches/patch-*: no such file You have an empty patches directory. Removed. Finally, and this is not really so much a problem as it is just a piece of advice, you don't need the @cwd line in your PLIST file since the default destination is already set to /usr/X11R6 for ports that use IMAKE. Letting the ports framework set it ensures that if /usr/X11R6 should ever change as the default location, we can change it in only once place. Like I said, this isn't really an error, just a tip. Finally, and this is what keeps me from committing the port even though the other problems were easy to fix, it doesn't seem to work! :-( root@time-> xsysinfo pstat: cannot read swapptr: kvm_read: Bad address pstat: cannot read swapptr: kvm_read: Bad address pstat: cannot read swapptr: kvm_read: Bad address pstat: cannot read swapptr: kvm_read: Bad address pstat: cannot read swapptr: kvm_read: Bad address <loops forever> I get a window with the graphs in it, but it doesn't look like it's able to read anything from kvm.
