On the next day, I eventually realised that an hard disk was logically missing on the system and the ZFS mirror it was belonging to was working in a degraded mode. This disk holding a swap partition, the panic quite makes sense: some data was stored there and could not be paged-out anymore.

status: One or more devices could not be opened.  Sufficient replicas exist for
        the pool to continue functioning in a degraded state.
action: Attach the missing device and online it using 'zpool online'.

Location of Feature Keys on the ST2030.

I finally decided to configure these keys with proper numbers instead of browsing my directory each time I want to make a call. But the phone only ships with a single paper sheet to hand-write the names corresponding to the configured numbers and my hand-writing is somewhat like what would produce a drunk cow with Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease. I browsed the Internet for a sheet template to fill-in, print and cut, but was unable to find some.

The show is called Les aventures du comte de Malamanteau (French for Earl Malamanteau's Adventures), and is mostly music centered: during one hour, a selection of music from a given country (a different one for each issue) is aired. So far, we have visited South Africa, Kenya, Tunisia, Lebanon, Ukraine and Finland.

A website has been setup for listeners to have access to broadcasted shows and gathering more information about the music we chose and location we visited: malamanteau.fr.

In order to help users who don't want to install the whole TeXLive collection (~2000 ports), a basic script has been developed to ease-up finding which port provides some file required by a given package.

As usual, feedback is welcomed!

The first line of the script was:

#!/bin/bash -x

Those who know me might imagine how my eyes were bleeding (the other may want to read my previous entry about writing portable shebang for shell scripts), but this shows another problem one may encounter when porting a shell script with an invalid shebang.

I did some basic testing locally, but I don't read Korean, thus I could not test beyond the (minimalistic) examples. I am therefore looking for FreeBSD TeXLive users who are able to write Korean to help testing this package. If you are one of them, please give it a try and report any success or failures on the issue page.

One month ago, I pushed TeXLive 2010 to the freebsd-texlive repository. Moreover, because portshaker is now in the FreeBSD ports tree, installing bleeding-edge TeXLive on FreeBSD has never been so easy!

I used a script for update TeXLive 2008 on a regular basis, but since these new ports feature pkg-plist files, I had to setup an update jail. So updates for FreeBSD TeXLive ports will be generated daily at 5:30 CET.
