MToolsFM is a GTK based file-manager which gives people easy access to
MS-DOS (Windows) floppies. It uses the mtools collection of utilities
as a backend. Although originally designed for floppies, any disk
mtools works with can be accessed: Jaz, Zip, Syquest, IDE, or even
disk images.
Why MToolsFM? (Modified from the MToolsFM web-page):
The disadvantage with mtools is that nowadays there are not many
people who know about DOS-commands. And who would ask a UNIX newbie
to learn DOS ;-) ? This is why you need MToolsFM: It gives you a
simple, easy to use file-manager interface for accessing your
floppies. It has the advantages of mtools, but you do not have to
learn the DOS-commands.
It is particularly helpful if you administer a NetBSD-box used by
people who are more familiar with MS Windows. These people can now
access floppies without the long explanation and you'll have more
time. ;-)

XFM is a powerful file and applications manager program written using
the X toolkit. It contains virtually all of the features that you would
expect in a file manager -- move around your directory tree in multiple
windows, and move, copy or delete files with simple mouse operations.
The integrated application manager allows you to load files into your
favourite applications from the file manager by dragging icons. It can
also be used as a "shelf" onto which you can place files and directories
that you are currently working with.

- upsd.users(5) has changed formats.
NOTE: you need to update your file for upsd(8) to function
- upsmon can reload its configuration on the fly (with '-c reload')
- upsdrvctl can power off UPS's in an orderly fashion
- new drivers:
- tripplite - Tripp-Lite SmartUPS models
- newvictron - IMV/Victron hardware
- bestferrups801-807 - Best FerrUPS 8.01-8.07 firmware
- genericups type 14 - for Online P-series units
- upsdrvctl now waits up to "maxstartdelay" (default 45) seconds for a
driver to start before it gives up and goes to the next entry
(refer to CHANGES in the distribution, or
http://www.exploits.org/nut/release/new-0.45.4.txt

many bug fixes; i18n support + translations for several languages;
mail-checker can now authenticate to an imap server; and a few new
configuration options.
* The command "displaymem" uses only hex digits for consistency.
* The netboot code goes back to the progress bars instead of dots, for
the notation of data transfers. And, that is displayed only in debug
mode, that is to say, nothing is displayed by default. Remember that
you can turn on debug mode via the command "debug".
* The command "help" doesn't show all the available commands by default,
when no argument is specified. Rarely used commands (such as
"testload") and useless commands in interactive use (such as
"savedefault") are hidden. If you want to see help messages for those
commands, specify the new option "--all".
* A built-in, `more'-like pager is added. When a command prints too many
lines to fit the screen, GRUB waits until you hit return key. This
feature can be turned off by the new command "pager".
* The command "terminal" accepts a new option, "--lines=LINES". You can
set the maximum number of lines arbitrarily with this option. If you
don't specify it, the maximum number will be 24.
* The command "terminal" accepts another new option, "--silent". You can
suppress the "Press any key to continue" message with this option.
* The mem= option for Linux is recognized and used to limit the maximum
address of initrd.
* A fallback entry is executed immediately after a default entry,
without prompting a user's intervention, as the manual has ever been
saying.
* The utility ``grub-install'' makes sure that GRUB images have been
written to a physical disk completely. To assist this feature, a new
command "dump" is added.
amanada-client only needs the gtar binary and not the gtar meta package.
gtar-base didn't exists in the past, but the old gtar package is enough

release notes:
4.63 April 23, 2002
...
Corrected bugs in device number, file size, file
offset, and raw device number field output generation.
...
Built an automated test suite. (See 00TEST and
the tests/ sub-directory of the lsof main directory).
Bela Lubkin requested it. Dale Talcott, John
Hughes, and Larry Rosenman helped me validate it
on their systems.
During the development of the test suite I discovered
the following lsof bugs or missing features, and
corrected or supplied them.
...
* Corrected the reporting of UNIX domain socket
names for Apple Darwin, FreeBSD 4.5 and above,
NetBSD 1.4.1 and above, and for OpenBSD 3.0 and
above.
...
Updated the NetBSD and OpenBSD sources so NetBSD
can process DTYPE_PIPE files, as OpenBSD was already
able to do.
...
Added defense against the standard I/O descriptor
attack.
Note that the test suite is not enabled for this pkg because it
requires root privileges in order to operate.
bbsload is one of the 'bbtools' for the BlackBox window manager.
It is a small (in dimensions) tool that will visualise various system
parameters, like avarage load and memory usage.

the submitter already sent to the grub people.
GRUB is the GRand Unified Bootloader. Briefly, bootloader is the first
software program that runs when a computer starts. It is responsible for
loading and transferring control to the operating system kernel software
(such as NetBSD orLinux). GRUB understands ffs, FAT{16,32}, ext2fs,
ReiserFS, minixfs, and VSTafs. It can directly boot NetBSD, FreeBSD,
OpenBSD and Linux without any other bootloader, loading a.out and ELF
kernels from the disk and passing along necessary arguments (in most cases).
It can also boot any operating system (the above, plus eg Windows, OS/2) by
chaining to that operating system's specific loader. Grub features a
runtime command line and loads its configuration at boot rather than
requiring rerunning of a separate utility. Other features are TFTP booting,
serial console support, large disk support, support for both DOS MBR label
and BSD disklabel simultaneously, booting from hard drive or floppy.
GRUB is available for the i386 architecture only.
Split probe into separate (user configurable) script and add ssh version,
ssh 'etc' directory, and redhat version (where appropriate) to the default
set of parameters probed.
respective pkgconfig-style scripts, we should actually use them instead of
directly invoking "gnome-config" or "orbit-config". This will allow us to
properly buildlinkify this package.
Ruby/Quota
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This module provides functions which manipulate disk quotas.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SUPPORT ENVIRONMENT
* Linux 2.4 or later
* Solaris 2.6, 7, 8
* FreeBSD, NetBSD (OpenBSD,.. ?)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SYNOPSIS
Quota::GroupID.new(id)
Quota::GroupID[id]
Quota::UserID.new(id)
Quota::UserID[id]
Quota.quotaon(dev, quotas)
Quota.quotaoff(dev)
Quota.getquota(dev, uid)
Quota.setquota(dev, uid, dq)
Quota.setqlim(dev, uid, dq) # *BSD does not have this function.
Quota.sync(dev)
* 'dev' is a device file or a mount point (e.g. /dev/hda0, /mnt/foo). On *
BSD, this library try to find a mounted directory from a given filesystem
using getmntinfo().
* 'quotas' is a quotas file.
* 'uid' is an integer value, an user id or a group id. If it is an integer,
it is treated as an user id.
* 'dq' is an entry of the quotas. its members are same as 'dqblk' structure
(e.g. dqb_curblocks => dq.curblocks). see also the quotactl man pages and
header files (e.g. linux/quota.h).
Changes are mainly bugfixes, most notably this now compiles with
control-center-1.4.0.4. This version also adds support for start-here:,
preferences:, system-settings:, server-settings:, start-here:, and
programs: URI schemes.
While at it, fix localstatedir to avoid installing scrollkeeper files
where they don't belong (PR pkg/13057).
This version is more robust wrt. problems during the build stage.
The fdgw main Makefile performs more error checking, ${.CURDIR}/mnt
is used as mount point for vnconfig, and a "make unconfig" is run
if a sub make process fails.
Changes since 0.11.19:
* Rewrote routine that creates the filenames used when interpolating
{fup}-codes in commands. Now doesn't emit double slashes, which
helps some (confused) apps to work better.
* gentoo now attempts to copy the protection (mode) flags for
files, device nodes, and directories. That might have been overdue.
* Incorporated patch to widget code from J. Hanson's home page.
* Literally hundreds of minor clean-ups (removed needless casts,
improved naming consistency, use glib types, and on, and on).
* Tweaked the way symlinks are displayed by the Information command.
* The gentoorc sample config file is now built from a slightly
better gentoorc.in template. The icon location might not come
out correctly if you use the --datadir configure option, though.
* Fixed a missing include in the main gentoo.h header, which I
believe caused date sorting to break. Thanks for the reports.
* Fixed bug which caused failure to execute a (most likely miss-
ing) external command to be reported twice.
* The directory history can now be saved, and thus made persistent
between sessions. Suggested by Roger Sondermann. See option on
the Dir Panes config page, sub-page "History". It's lonely.
* Added a section to the man page (docs/gentoo.1x--read it!)
that talks about how the new persistent-history interacts with
a pane's default directory, and stuff.
* Wrote a new, vastly more powerful, command argument parser. It
gives better control over the initial paths shown. Nice.
* Inspired by a patch from Patricio Moracho, I added support for
underlined keyboard accelerators in all (most?) dialog buttons.
And other bug fixes.

libraries, all for the (imminent) update to the "png" package.

Changes:
The memory sizing code has been completely rewritten. By default
Memtest86 gets a memory map from the BIOS that is now used to find
available memory. A new online configuration option provides three
choices for how memory will be sized, including the old "probe" method.
The default mode generally will not test all of memory, but should be more
stable. See the "Memory Sizing" section for details.
Testing of more than 2gb of memory should now work. A number of bugs
were found and corrected that prevented testing above 2gb. Testing
with more than 2gb has been limited and there could be problems with a
full 4gb of memory.
Memory is divided into segments for testing. This allow for frequent
progress updates and responsiveness to interactive commands. The
memory segment size has been increased from 16 to 32mb. This should
improve testing effectivness but progress reports will be less frequent.
Minor bug fixes.
The cpuburn programs are designed to load x86 CPUs as heavily as
possible for the purposes of system testing. They have been
optimized for different processors. FPU and ALU instructions are
coded an assembler endless loop. They do not test every instruction.
The goal has been to maximize heat production from the CPU, putting
stress on the CPU itself, cooling system, motherboard (especially
voltage regulators) and power supply (likely cause of burnBX/MMX
errors).

only emit a message and don't actually fetch anything. This allows
us to make the output of "fetch-list" for these packages consistent
with other packages.
While we're in here, integrate DYNAMIC_MASTER_SITES with the
${ORDERED_SITES} macro. The only functional change here is that
${MASTER_SITE_OVERRIDE} is now respected. Still to do -- something
appropriate for "fetch-list" for these packages, like sourcing
"getsites.sh" into the generated script. (Well, "package", but there
are two others that do something similar in their "Makefile".)
Also eliminate the misbegotten _FETCH_ALLFILES macro -- now that only
"fetch" uses it, move it's functionality directly under "do-fetch".
Summary of changes:
- removal of USE_GTEXINFO
- addition of mk/texinfo.mk
- inclusion of this file in package Makefiles requiring it
- `install-info' substituted by `${INSTALL_INFO}' in PLISTs
- tuning of mk/bsd.pkg.mk:
removal of USE_GTEXINFO
INSTALL_INFO added to PLIST_SUBST
`${INSTALL_INFO}' replace `install-info' in target rules
print-PLIST target now generate `${INSTALL_INFO}' instead of `install-info'
- a couple of new patch files added for a handful of packages
- setting of the TEXINFO_OVERRIDE "switch" in packages Makefiles requiring it
- devel/cssc marked requiring texinfo 4.0
- a couple of packages Makefiles were tuned with respect of INFO_FILES and
makeinfo command usage
See -newly added by this commit- section 10.24 of Packages.txt for
further information.
* Mouse bindings ignore all modifiers except shift, control and
alt at all times. Reported by Martin Uddén.
* Fixed sloppy pointer-to-int cast that gave warning on 64-bit
systems (Alphas). Reported by Jesse Perry.
* The Information command can now optionally display the output
of 'file' in its window. Suggested by Christian Richter. Do
note that this *requires* your 'file' command to support the
"-f - -n" option combo. See configure.in for details.
* If executing a child process fails, gentoo now sometimes shows
an error rather than just dying. This is an improvement.
* Added some more -W options to gcc, that scared out some sloppy
code that got fixed (even in widgets/). I like killing warnings.
* Updated About's copyright for the new year. Time flies. :)
* RenameSeq no longer opens its window if there's no selection.
* Should now compile on NetBSD, too. Thanks to Pehr Johansson for
the original patch.
* String input fields (created with '{Is}') can now be set to use
asterisks to hide entered text. To do this, add an asterisk in
the definition, after the label part, e.g.: '{Is:"Password"*}'.
* gentoo now supplies the window manager with a prettier icon,
and now also groups its windows, most of the time at least.

The new version provides cleaner Makefiles, contains all patches from
pkgsrc, and in addition adresses a missing directoy problem on the
netbsd-1-5 branch before September, 2001.
with buildlinking and other minor changes by me:
gentoo is a modern, powerful, flexible, and utterly configurable file
manager for UNIX systems, written using the GTK+ toolkit. It aims to
be 100% graphically configurable; there's no need to edit config files
by hand and then restart the application. gentoo is somewhat
inspired in its look & feel by the classic Amiga program
DirectoryOpus.
- distname now is Unix-Syslog
- When calling libc-syslog() internally, pass message as string argument,
not as format string
- Instead of quoting percent-signs in syslog()-wrapper, simply pass the
string to libc-syslog() as string argument via %s
- Copy ident-argument using some Perl-API functions. Just
using a reference counter had unwanted side-effects

an -i option.
as they might not be there depending on whether INSTALL_RCD_SCRIPTS is set
in /etc/mk.conf when the package is built. Instead, assume that the other
rc.d scripts are in the same place as this "meta" script and locate them
using "dirname $0". Problem noted by Stoned Elipot <seb@netbsd.org> in
private email.
"make clean" before building. This will remove all soft links pointing
to .o files, not the object files themselves.
Also, we now mention in the Makefile that a kernel with 'pseudo-device vnd 4'
is required in the install stage.
- upsd can reload its config files on the fly.
- 'upsdrvctl status' will check for presence of pid files
- upsd can be stopped with 'upsd -c stop'
- newpowercom driver added
- cyberpower driver added
- more man pages
- various bug fixes
Rconfig is intended to manage configuration files across
hetrogenous groups of machines. The configuration for each
machine is determined by a set of rdist trees based on the
various tags such as OS, hostname, and architecture.
Files in 'more specific' rdist trees take priority.

o Eric Biederman reworked the build process making it far simpler and also
to produce a network bootable ELF image.
o Re-wrote the memory and cache speed detection code. Previuosly the
reported numbers were inaccurate for intel CPU's and completely wrong
for Athlon/Duron CPU's.
o By default the serial console is disabled since this was slowing
down testing.
o Added CPU detection for Pentium 4.
o Expanded workaround for errors caused by BIOS USB keyboard support to
include test #5.
o Re-worked L1 / L2 cache detection code to provide clearer reporting.
o Fixed an obvious bug in the computation of cache and memory speeds.
o Changed on-line menu to stay in the menu between option selections.
o Fixed bugs in the test restart and redraw code.
o Adjusted code size to fix compilation problems with RedHat 7.1.
o Misc updates to the documentation.
release notes are:
4.60 November 9, 2001
Added special handling to and corrected bugs in
the matching of IPv4 in IPv6 addresses to -i6:<...>
selectors.
...
Made lsof's method of killing its child process
more robust, based on a suggestion from Bela Lubkin
<belal@caldera.com>.
...
Modified all dialect Makefile segments to accept
select -v #define's from the environment -- a
builder's comment, host, logname, system information
and user name. This was done for Bela Lubkin, so
he can "tune" the -v output when he packages lsof
in the upcoming Caldera OSR 5.0.7 release.
The relevant #define from the last note is LSOF_BLDCMT which is
currently assigned the value "NetBSD pkgsrc rocks!" :)
Fri Jun 15 16:27:52 2001 Takahiro Kambe <taca@kyoto.jepro.co.jp>
* Add files for NEWLAYOUT style FreeBSD ports contributed by
yrsh2scp@mbox.nc.kyushu-u.ac.jp (Yoshifumi R. Shimizu).
* remove package support for NetBSD since bkpupsd is now included
in NetBSD package collection.
Mon Mar 5 15:00:03 2001 Takahiro Kambe <taca@kyoto.jepro.co.jp>
* bump version, now 2.1.
* now parameter for shutdown(8) may be specified in upstab.
Inspired by proposal from yrsh2scp@mbox.nc.kyushu-u.ac.jp
(Yoshifumi R. Shimizu).
* correct spelling mistake noted from

the default: *.in files are touched , unfortunately fileutils-4.0/m4/Makefile.am
is generated from fileutils-4.0/m4/Makefile.am.in, as is this leads to in the
Makefile.am being regenerated (with GNU make required) and GNU "auto*" being
invoked.
Added a touch in a new post-configure target to overcome this situation, as
_AUTOMAKE_PATTERNS_FIND is out of reach.
