plunky 8f6f899225 Building the Xorg binary was moved into a subdirectory to fix
ordering issues with "make all". It may be necessary to remove
	the OBJDIR for external/mit/xorg/server/xorg-server/hw/xfree86
	if your update build fails, as the "Xorg" entry there is now a
	directory.

xtraeme b0ac365f62 Rename it(4) to itesio(4) to accomodate for the following changes:
- The driver now uses the Super I/O address port as port argument in
  the configuration file. The Environmental Controller base address is
  fetched by the Super I/O EC LDN configuration registers.

- Invalidate voltage sensors if data returned is 0xff.

- Use the Super I/O Global Configuration Registers Chip ID[12] and Device
  Revision to store/print the correct information.

- Use only the Fan Extended Tachometer registers on IT871[68]F for now;
  this gives us correct data for IT8705/IT8712F again.

Inspired by the smsc(4) driver. The UPDATING file has been updated to
reflect the rename.

gdt 4d4e1d30cf At pooka@'s request, add hints about the recent
dhcp/racoon/SIOCGIFCONF lossage:

20070913:
	A latent bug in dhclient/dhcpd that caused it to be unable to
	enumerate interfaces was fixed.  The bug began to cause
	problems after 20070911 when the kernel's SIOCGIFCONF
	implementation was repaired.  From 20070529 to 20070911 racoon
	could not enumerate interfaces.  (These are noted because
	normal kernel/userspace version matching hygiene is not
	sufficient to avoid this problem.)  Ensure that both kernel
	and userland are from after 20070913.

yamt a692b5dc5a note about conf/std.
(forgot to commit with conf/std.)
2005-10-03 04:45:52 +00:00
lukem 36476eed8b Don't mark /etc/namedb/named.conf as "obsolete" since that will cause
a file that has end-user configuration to be unconditionally removed.
Instead, remove the entry from the set list, and add a note to UPDATING
reminding users of MKUPDATE=yes to manually rectify the problem in
their DESTDIR.

The "named" fix in postinstall(8) will migrate /etc/namedb/named.conf
to /etc/named.conf if the latter doesn't exist.
(The need for these style of migrations was why I implemented postinstall(8)
in the first place.)
