anyone try to build perl on your openbsd vps with perlbrew? I have tried older version of perl 5.16.0, but it keeps getting stuck: ../lib/AnyDBM_File.t .............................................. ok is the last line it reports How many of you have successfully moved an ARPNetworks VPS to another OS? Why not just order the VPS with the OS you want? because he wants Gentoo easymac: Because I've had this VPS online for 400 something days? I'm not ordering a new one? 8:17AM up 410 days, 12:25, 3 users, load averages: 1.04, 1.03, 0.72 Oh, and I'm supposed to know that because of all that amazing information you gave me? Er, I've been in here for a long time omguptime, what's the IP? Surely it has endless exploits. I chat in here everyday in regards to my VPSes I'm not sure why I'd be here if I wasn't an existing customer I'd cancel and order a new one. No way I need to keep my same IPs Then ask support if that's possible?. -. Well that's pretty much what I was trying to do here But I suppose opening a ticket would be better up_the_irons: I see that misspelled *so* much that I thought you'd misspelled it at first, haha. not that I would have said anything if you had lol kraigu: in anticipation of misspelling it, i google'd it first to make sure i was doing it right... :) haha! well, that's more than most folks bother to do haha the principal principle is to have principles! ... man, that's a funny word. (either variant) disagree. opinion rejected, irrelevant. I speak facts! man, how do you tell the freebsd boot loader to use a serial port *other* than the first one? can't get serial redirection working for the life of me... set tty ? that's how openbsd does it up_the_irons: afaik you have to rebuild the kernel mercutio: openbsd serial console is much more straightforward then freebsd... jdoe: i c... i'll keep playing... you should be able to set loader opts i've done it before for sol under ipmi man are any of you using weechat? only xchat or irssi weechat? strange name. i use irssi Webhostbudd: I don't think you can. weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee up_the_irons: search google for "BOOT_COMCONSOLE_PORT" since afaik that's what you need to do. But that requires a kernel rebuild. I don't think there's any other way to set it. jdoe: wow, that's pretty bad.
