1) It may be a dependency missing but will be fix by doing

Code: Select all

pkg install -f spideroak
but need to be fix for RC2
2) I will see if it can be solve before final release.
3) I will have to investigate that by default on FreeBSD only root can write on device.
4) 3. In /boot/loader.conf add

Code: Select all

cuse4bsd_load="YES"
In /etc/rc.conf add the line

Code: Select all

webcamd_enable="YES"
I did not add those line because of the webcam light open on the boot process and stay open, I don't wont to freak out users.

SpiderOak updated - now asks for account setup details - as I haven't a clue what it is, I left it at that - so it is now upgraded & working.
Will check Xfburn as root, & after rebooting will see if Cheese works.

Xfburn runs OK using sudo. Cheese now works, (I can see my ugly mug :lol: ) - perhaps a script to add the neccessary lines to those two files.

Perhaps there should be a description (on the website) of what the included programs are when version 4.0 is released.

My HP G62 with RC1 crashed loading up Firefox yesterday, now it will not re start, something to do with a 'bad_filesystem'. I have used 'single user mode' fsck to check and repair the filesystem, but it does not restart, keeps crashing with a kernel problem when trying to load up. (This laptop uses a SSD, just in case it is a problem related to that.)
I will not pursue this problem with RC1, but just noting it here in case it should re appear in RC2. I shall now try the latest RC2 on this laptop. ;)

I had a similar problem on RC1 but I was still able to boot. Since RC2 build , I did not see that happen back.

The biggest gripe I have with this release is that installing packages by commands no longer seems to work.

pkg update -f should fix that.
