Mac Mini freezes

[Jamie Moore]

Hi Peter,

Sorry. It doesn't seem to be any particular port.

Having restarted the Mac Mini and set the ports building simultaneously 
again, the smaller (sysutils/screen) finished without problems while the 
lang/perl5.8 port (as a dependency of x11/xorg) built on happily.

The x11/xorg port is still building as I type, although I have nothing 
in going in parallel at the moment.  Once x11-toolkits/gtk20 installed I 
will try to build some gtk2 applications simultaneously and see how it goes.

The only difference after this restart is that I have commented out swap 
in fstab.

Would shell access to the box be advantageous to you?


Jamie.
