my sister has a Intel Pentium II 350 MHz, MMX with the 8086 motherboard and
no internet. She has lost the sound driver/pilote. what can I do to get it?
Is there a site where I can download it on a CD and then put it on her PC? I
was told there are sites where you can get it for free. Is it true? Or how
much do I have to pay? HELPPPPPP. Thank you, ErosFrom

Well, I can't really voice opinion on VIA/Linux relationships and fun 
acronyms, but maybe give some points as to some things to check.

Make sure 'apm_enable="YES"' is added to /etc/rc.conf.  I got the same 
microuptime() error when i accidentally tapped the power switch before 
I enabled apm.

Also, make sure that 'device apm' is not disabled in your kernel.  It 
appears that GENERIC has it disabled by default.

Hi,

on a Dell gx270 512m of ram, 40 gig hd, 3ghz P4, 
em0: <Intel(R) PRO/1000 Network Connection

did custom install
installed all

installed from packages the following:
bash-2.05b.007      The GNU Bourne Again Shell
cvsup-without-gui-16.1h General network file distribution system optimized
for CVS 

went into the bash shell

cd /usr/src
and typed make buildworld

the build world fails as follows:
