Message-ID: <Coy2BC.81E@weitek.COM> Date: 28 Apr 94 00:50:00 GMT Sender: news@weitek.COM Organization: WEITEK Corporation, Sunnyvale CA Lines: 13 1. Are FreeBSD binaries supposed to be able to run under NetBSD 0.9 ? When I try this, I get "wrong architecture" or some such goop. Sounds more like I've got executables for an amiga or such, but that's not where I got them... 2. I'm still unclear how to fix the apropos problem (ie man -k <subject>) does not work. How do I do this ? Do I need sources to fix it ? Thanks ! John Mcleod
