make package-recursive
Hello, I would like to create a custom set of packages, so that they will be installable to my other FreeBSD boxen. As I understand, I have to use 'make package-recursive', but I have some problems with it: 1. Is there a way to tell 'make package-recursive' not to _install_ package, but only build it? It is annonying and time-consuming to deinstall every package after it is installed. 2. To refer to the previous point: I need to deinstall the packages which I 'make package-recursive'-ed before, or else some other package which also depends on a port which is already installed will not include that (already installed) package. How to change this behaviour? I would like that the packages, which I create via 'make package-recursive', _always_ include _all_ other dependent packages. Thanks for your help. P.S.: Do you guys have any scripts for building a customized package set?

gdvrecv produces very BIG FILES
Dear all, I managed to connect my new canon mini dv camera to my firewire port on my freebsd amd64 machine and used gdvrecv to transfer the first 2 minutes of my first recording (did I mention I really like FreeBSD and I'm so glad it's possible t do this first step:-) However, this 2 minutes recording produced a dv file of +/512MB in size. I have a 60 minute casette so in theorie I would get a 15GB dv file? Right? Is that normal, to have this big sized files as a result? ps Unfortunately Kino didn't compile sucessfully on my FreeBSD box, so I had to revert to my Linux partition and process the file there (I already asked the port maintainer of Kino what I could do to get it working on my amd64 system_ - Ready for the edge of your seat?

Bye, Nejc ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] There is another little know way to create packages, assuming you have them already installed on the source machine: The pkg_create command. It can create installation packages from the already installed ones. Even better, it can create all dependency packages as well in one go with the -R option. For example, in my test machine I have the xorg 7.2 installed. I can create packages for the whole system with: pkg_create -Rb xorg-7.2 You have to get the exact name of the installed pkg using the pkg_info or pkg_version command, i.e. in the above example pkg_info |grep -i xorg The utility creates the packages in the directory you are currently in. I usually do this /usr/ports/packages I used it last week to create packages for sudo, bash, xorg, xfce, portupgrade and others all of which installed without a hitch on my other machines. In fact I plan to create custom CDs with latest packages to use on my new BSD installations and spare the endless download-compile cycle...

odd HP 1320 printer behaviour...
I have an HP 1320 (only has USB and parallel support) hooked to a FreeBSD 6.2-STABLE box using a USB cable. I have configured /dev/ulpt0 into my /etc/printcap file. Everything works fine and I am happy with this setup except for one odd behaviour. The last page of a multi-page print job will linger - somewhere - while the green light on the HP continues to blink -- as if data were being sent to it. The lpq(1) command reports no entries when run, and then about a minute or two later, this last page gets printed. Is there some configuration that I am missing? Is this an artifact of the USB protocol? Is this the way the HP 1320 laser printer operates? Is this a feature (or bug) of the USB printer driver /dev/ulpt0 that is not documented? I've read the man pages and searched using Google to see if this is a known problem. Any suggestions will be gladly accepted. I can live with this behaviour, but it seems very odd.

Help! FreeBSD: 88.78 KBps, Linux: 624.95 KBps
Hello.
My friend is switching to Linux because FreeBSD is failing on him.
When downloading a file from a FreeBSD box and a Linux box on the same
network, the FreeBSD box got 88.78 KBps whereas the Linux got 624.95
Kbps. I have no idea what's wrong, but my man isn't really into good
information design (e.g. taking something complex and making it easy),
so his system is a mess. Maybe some of you can help me locate where the
problem's at?
Thanks guys,

I've tried a couple of different disk arrangements, with no success. I've installed an IDE WD 180GB drive, which the motherboard BIOS detects just fine. When I boot from disk 1 for the FreeBSD install, it detects no hard drive. I've put in an Addonics ADSA2 PCI SATA card, which sports the SiL 1352A chipset, but the install blows up when installing to a 74GB Seagate drive - the kernel panics and it reboots while copying files to disk. Has anyone run into these problems? Google hasn't been particularly my friend on this one. I've tried reading the install docs on the CD, with no particular luck, but I could be missing something. Clearly you have a disk controller compatibility problem. I do know the Sil chips are terrible, and there is a long history of issues with these chips and FreeBSD! Can you find a regular IDE drive to plug into that motherboard? -Derek Plugging an IDE drive into the motherboard is the first thing I did - that's the case above where FreeBSD didn't see *any* HD. That's the one that really fries my brain, because the motherboard BIOS detects it correctly, and XP installs to it just fine. Any possibility the IDE master/slave jumper is not set right on that drive? On some intel MB's it takes a reboot into setup so that setup see's the hard drive, then check that it has that hard drive in the boot order. I know this seems a bit simple, but just trying to check all possibilities. I've never seen a problem with a standard IDE drive installation. After you had XP on the drive did you reformat the drive to clear it out? -Derek I think I'll go beat my lackey again. He was supposed to remove the jumper, and didn't do it. I took it off, and it's installing happily to the IDE drive. I'm gonna bag the SATA for now. Thanks for your help, Kurt I'm glad I could help. As an FYI windows ignores a lot of hardware issues until it simply can't run anymore, where FreeBSD is much better at error checking. Of course sometimes that can make it frustrating. If you can get a decent SATA controller you might try adding or switching to SATA in the future, but avoid the Sil ones. -Derek -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

(To be more exact, I've been using the SiL 311[24] chips) There are significant hardware defects with the SiliconImage 311x chips, which can mostly be worked around if you accept a loss of performance. These workarounds are implemented in both Linux and the BSDs, but details are available here: http://www.google.com/search?client=safarirls=enq=Silicon+Image+3112 +bugsie=UTF-8oe=UTF-8 ...gives results such as: http://www.nabble.com/SII3512-rev0---t3995350.html -- -Chuck ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Selecting printer from apps core dumps. Howto debug?

In the short space of time I see it on the screen after clicking print I can see there is no entry for the printer. [...] [SOLVED] Set printer as 'default' using cups webmin. All working - thanks :) Sorry to bring back the thread but I'm seeing this issue with a fresh install of everything on a new machine. Printing to an Epson USB printer from the CUPS test page works fine, as does printing from Opera using the lpr binary installed by CUPS. When trying to print via AbiWord or Claws Mail, they coredump. If the printer is not set as default in CUPS (which is how I had it set before reading this thread), it does bring up the print dialog in Abiword/Claws but it dumps when you select the printer. If the printer is set as default in CUPS, the app dumps right when opening the print dialog and before the printer even shows up on the list of available printers. I think it's a somewhat new problem somewhere because I've been using Xfce, CUPS, and these applications for quite a while on other machines with no problems. CUPS is enabled in xfce4-print as well as libgnomeprint, and GNOME printing is enabled in Claws Mail. The USB permissions are also set properly. I also tried running AbiWord outside of Xfce (in Xorg's default WM) which did the same thing. Maybe it's something with libgnomeprint since both apps use it and both have problems printing?

named listening on LAN
Hello,
I am slowly trying various features of FBSD and I have just enabled named
to be my local caching DNS server. It works fine but I have one question.
I would like it to be a caching DNS server for my LAN.
So following the Handbook I tried setting a proper LAN IP address of the
named machine:
listen-on { 192.168.11.50; };
However, when I restart named, it does not want to work (no DNS then). The
handbook suggests that when I want a caching server only, I should not
touch zones.
Any hint what I need to do to make it work for my LAN?
Thank you in advance!

Re: named listening on LAN
this is what I got:
listen-on {

192.168.11.50;

Try that, restart and see if it works locally (from the server).
Also the logs spit anything out?
Other thing is firewall, I think simple blocks it by default? So you
might want to try that.

syslog.conf) , but still no luck. Any suggestions?
logging {
channel named-log {
//syslog daemon;
syslog local0;
severity info;
print-category yes;
};
category default { named-log; };
category xfer-in { named-log; };
category xfer-out { named-log; };
category unmatched { null; };
};
Thanks
Patrick

gpg-agent
I have been having trouble getting gpg-agent to work. kgpg complained about the agent not running. I added this to my ~/.bashrc: GPG_TTY=`tty` export GPG_TTY This seems to have taken care of the problem but it only works when my default shell is bash. If my shell is tcsh, it doesn't work. This is what I have in my ~/.cshrc: setenv GPG_TTY tty Apparently this is wrong.

In the worst case, it won't be that hard for me to switch to another card (just hoping that it won't cause any data corruption). It will probably be a while before I get the drives to connect to them, but I'll try to remember to post the results of my testing.

Subject: Help! FreeBSD: 88.78 KBps, Linux: 624.95 KBps
Hello.
My friend is switching to Linux because FreeBSD is failing on him.
When downloading a file from a FreeBSD box and a Linux box on the same
network, the FreeBSD box got 88.78 KBps whereas the Linux got 624.95
Kbps. I have no idea what's wrong, but my man isn't really into good
information design (e.g. taking something complex and making it easy),
so his system is a mess. Maybe some of you can help me locate where the
problem's at?
Thanks guys,

One other thing you can try - set the ethernet adapter to 10BaseT half
duplex
and see if it gets better.
