I found it just after sending the patch for 3.8.1 to the port maintainer... what a timing.
Release Notes say there are several bug fixes, so let's try again.
It looks OK for 3.8.2, so I made a patch (from 3.8.0 to 3.8.2) and sent it again.
ところで（と急に日本語）、件の maintainer の方（は、たまたま日本のひとなのだけど）、実は先日までここ、つまりカナダの、アルバータ州の、エドモントンに、これまた偶然に来ていて、 conference で私の同僚と出会って喋り、その同僚に職場にまで連れてこられた（？）のだそうだ（という返信をいただいた）。しかし世界は狭すぎるね。いやいや、まったく、悪いことはできないもんだな（って、何も悪いことなどしてないですけれど、もちろん）。

For a quite long time, I've been stuck at ATLAS 3.6.0, because upgrading to 3.8.0 (the current version in ports) failed during the build. it seems the same symptom here -- PR - ports/119845.
- cf. freebsd-ports ML;
  FreeBSD Port:atlas-3.8.0,1(Dec 30 21:49:14 PST 2007)
  FreeBSD Port:atlas-3.8.0,1(Jan 6 18:05:04 PST 2008)
I thought I had tried before to compile the newer version by myself and found it failed. but today i tried again with 3.8.1, and somehow it is done! So I decided to upgrade the port.
It looks that some patches had already been applied at the main code, and the corrections for other patch looks straightforward.
It is now working (i guess). My system is FreeBSD 6.2-PRERELEASE (how lazy i am...) with intel core duo T2400 (32bit). i don't know anything about other systems.
Some notes:
- Patch should be made by
```
diff -ruN superedit.bak superedit
   
```
  I made a patch file with "-rcN", the context output rather than the unified one (following my own old tips memo). I should update it.

i810 から intel に変わったらしいけど、日々 portupgrade していて、 i810 のまま今まで来ていた（何の問題も無いので、別にいいのだけど）。
ついでに、いらない driver を全部消しておいた。
しかし、挙動が何か変わっている。輝度が何の拍子か、最大値に持っていかれる。 X の起動時もだが、 mplayer を起動してもそうだ。これは何とかならないものか。（もともと、明るい画面だと目が反応して辛いので、暗くしている。）
