This doesn't parse. The files it is complaining about right now are all in my /lkm directory. These files haven't been changed since my last make world. But I have been having this problem since May. Also, if I do an 'ls' of /lkm I get the following on stderr: # ls /lkm >/dev/null ls: null_mod.o: Bad file descriptor ls: pcic_mod.o: Bad file descriptor ls: portal_mod.o: Bad file descriptor ls: procfs_mod.o: Bad file descriptor I am only using one of these (procfs), so it would not be because the files are open and damaged. Plus, it is consistent. What are the odds that a task causing this problem is running every time I try to ls the directory? brian To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
