6.3 And VIA 8237S Controller
I just bought a new MSI P4M900M2 mobo. It works just fine with both Windoze and SUSE Linux. When I tried booting 6.2 on it, it refused to set the drive (ad0 - I tried several different drives) into the higher speed UDMA modes. So, I downloaded 6.3, and it *seemed* to be fine. The drives come up as UDMA 100 or UDMA 133. But ... under long disk operations - say untaring a 2G tarball stored on a USB drive - I start to see this: ad0: WARNING WRITE_DMA UDMA ICRC ERROR And eventually: ad0: FAILURE WRITE_DMA Status=51 Error=84 g_vfs_done():ad0s1f ... What's going on here? Is there a known driver problem with the VIA chipsets? I took the two drives I tried this with, and stuck them in another machine - no problem, so I kind of doubt this is a drive problem. I have replaced the IDE cables as well. Again, this same mobo and drive combo worked flawlessly doing the same thing under SUSE Linux, so I'm thinking this is a software problem.

I have followed the instructions in dekstopBSD wiki: http://desktopbsd.net/wiki/doku.php?id=doc:printing (though I used ports and not packages) Did you find it necessary to recompile the kernel with ulpt disabled? I have a HP PSC2110 All-In-One To get HP PSC2110 just working you can use HPIJS driver and you do not need to recompile the kernel. However if you want to use HPLIP to unlock full functionality (scanner and FAX, PC-copping) you will have to recompile the driver to disable ulpt driver since it is unable to get the vendor name and product ID. That is well-documented. You will probably also need to disable umass driver since it gets attached to printer before the ugen driver. In all honestly that is not well-documented. You will also need to start HPLIP daemons before the CUPS daemon. That is all well-documented. #enable CUPS and related lpd_enable=NO hpiod_enable=YES #daemons for HPLIP HP printing hpssd_enable=YES #daemons for HPLIP HP printing cupsd_enable=YES umess driver is needed for Floppy and Flash drives so you might want to load manually after the boot and after you unlock your printer. Cheers, Predrag that I can use in Linux (printing and scanning) but was unable to get working in FreeBSD. I believe part of the solution is to disable ulpt and recompile the kernel, but I had trouble getting hplip to work.

Re: DRI on radeon 9500 using too wide memory bus?
On Thursday 13 March 2008 22:45:35 Reid Linnemann wrote: Written by Reid Linnemann on 03/13/08 00:58 I've had DRI running on a radeon 9500 for a while now, and at some point in time tracking 6-STABLE and continuing now on 7-STABLE I've started seeing rendering artifacts in gl in the form of a cross-hatch pattern of pixels that don't get filled. At first I figured the card was failing, but I remembered a fact about the 9500 that made me doublethink that. The radeon 9500 is an r300 chipset, and differs from the 9700 only in the width of the memory bus (128 bit vs 256 bit) and possibly clock speed. If memory serves, the chip itself had the capacity to address 256 bits, but most 9500s just went out the door with 128 bit memory. I remember at one point in time trying out a hack to the 9500 driver that enabled the 256 bit bus to see if I had a rebadged 9700, and had similar artifacts. So I decided to peruse my X logs, and sure enough I see: (--) RADEON(0): Mapped VideoRAM: 131072 kByte (256 bit DDR SDRAM) Is it possible that the radeon driver is using the 256 bus? Is there a way to force it to use a 128 bit bus? Has anyone else seen this? On further investigation, I tried forcing the driver to switch to a 128 bit bus by setting the R300_MEM_NUM_CHANNELS_MASK bits on RADEON_MEM_CNTL to 0x1, but the problem did not go away. I'll try describing it a little better.. only with gl acceleration, the entire gl context appears to have criss-crossing lines 4 pixels wide that are randomly filled correctly or black, so that they form roughly a chain link fence pattern of trash on the gl context. Anyone have an idea? I can't help you with this, but I'm thinking you'll have a higher chance getting an answer on some DRI/DRM mailinglist. You could also ask the port maintainers (x11@). Some of them are also active developers on DRI, and the r300 driver, or at least used to be in the past. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Have you read the FreeBSD handbook? It has realms of good advice covering all aspects of managing FreeBSD machines -- including updating software, network configuration and quite a lot of example command lines for routine operations -- and it is all presented in nice clear English accessible to complete beginners with the OS. It's online at: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/ If you have any questions arising from what you learn from the handbook, then please feel free to ask again here. For best results please tell us as much as you can about the specifics of what you are trying to do: we are neither omniscient nor telepathic, and unless we have some more detailed information we won't be able to provide you any sensible or meaningful answers. At least tell us what antivirus software, what versions of spam assassin, what MTA you're using (including version numbers). Also, a subject line of 'help' really is not helping yourself at all.

Re: Network programming question
On Thu, Mar 13, 2008 at 11:57 PM, Patrick Mahan [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: inet_pton() clobbered the fields you pointed out. In fact the sin_family field was being set to 0x01 which caused your initial EADDRNOTSUPPORT error you were seeing. You quick change fixed that problem. However, (depending on how sockaddr_in structure is actually allocated) the sin_addr field was 0.0.0.0. This is actually an accepted form of the broadcast address for UDP packets. I forget exactly who the culprit was (Sun comes to mind) but there was a need to allow broadcasts to 0.0.0.0 (which is also know as INADDR_ANY). So, therefore, sendto() succeeded, just not in the way you expected. Looking at in_pcbconnect_setup() in the kernel shows that actually the packet is sent to the local primary interface address. Let's look at what really happen to that packet - 192.168.0.1 after being mangled by inet_pton() gives the field sin_addr.s_addr of 0x0100A8C0. This should make your sockaddr_in structure look like - sa.sin_len = 0x01 sa.sin_family = 0x00 sa.sin_port = 0xA8C0 (which is port 49320) sa.sin_addr.s_addr = 0x So the sendto() call was sending a packet to your local interface for port 49320. And since UDP is a connectionless protocol, you don't have a way (unless it is builtin to your application protocol) to determine an error. For example, TFTP sends back notification for every dgram received. I hope this helps with your understanding. I highly recommend if you are going to do more network programming that you obtain at least some books on the subject. Patrick Thanks much for this explanation. Books would be good, yes. I guys got to learn somehow. Thanks for taking the time to explain it. That's interesting that a broadcast may be sent to 0.0.0.0. I knew that 0.0.0.0 is equal to INADDR_ANY. However, I thought it wasn't possible to send to that address, only to bind to it locally for a server application. Andy -- A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.

Does the Post install configuration not give you all the menus you want? It doesn't matter whether you have anything installed or not - you can fdisk, bsdlabel and newfs from the sysinstall interfaces you know and love. And you won't be prompted to install any packages because you're not on a scripted install pathway. If you have bsdlabel and fdisk files which you are trying to replicate then the live filesystem and native tools may be easier, but if you want to play around with sizes etc. without resorting to a calculator then sysinstall has always done the business for me, --Alex ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

On Thu, Mar 13, 2008 at 07:29:55PM -0600, Modulok wrote: Is there a compelling reason for placing subversion and web-server data in /usr/local and not somewhere else? I was thinking of keeping all user accounts (human and daemon alike) in one place like, /home/www and /home/svn and so forth. Before I break convention, I just thought I'd see if placing said files in /usr/local was just a tradition or if there was another reason for it. Break the convention! Where apache or any other web server looks for its home is down to *your* apache config. Different vhosts can look wherever they like for their own homes and you can put them wherever you like - no need for them to be in the same place at all. So one vhost could look in /home/project1 and another in /home/project2/Web, for example. You could keep the default server in /usr/local/www and then you get the files the port installs by default, but still control where *your* data goes. I don't know how tied subversion is to it's home in /usr/local but I would hope not at all. /home/cvs has been the home of my CVS repositories for a long time and if I switched VCS I'd certainly want to follow a pattern like that (certainly for anything that follows a CVS-like model, which subversion does. Something like Hg might be another matter, but then I'd be looking at putting repositories in project-specific locations). I dislike the notion of putting project-specific data under /usr/local. Config files and the like are easy to control, but large trees should be able to live wherever I want them to live. One can usually work around any issue that arise, and if you hit trouble, just mail back here :-) --Alex PS You said demons and I'd certainly draw a line between a demon like, say, postfix or bind which has a system-role and ones like apache, subversion or a database which have a project-role. Not sure it's a very firm line though - plenty of grey area. For me, if it's manageable with a simple CVSed config file or ten, then it can stay in /usr/local. If it breeds data, then it belongs somewhere else. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
interactive stop on boot
Hi -- I'm running a Tombstone machine that's functioning as a server. The machine is located somewhere with a fast connection, and not somewhere that I have easy access to. As such, I want this machine to do its best to boot up and get onto the network, no matter what happens on boot, so that I have a chance to actually fix the problem. Lately when it boots it runs into an NFS mounting error, claiming that some of my NFS-mounted drives have unexpected inconsistencies. It says unexpected error - help! and then quits to a /bin/sh single-user-mode prompt. As I am 10 miles away, this is decidedly unhelpful. I don't care if it can't mount some irrelevant drive or not; I want it to boot up and ask me questions later. Is there a way that I can set the machine to do its best to boot no matter what it finds at boot time? Thanks in advance for any help you can provide, - Jason PS -- Boot messages not available, as the machine is down at the moment and I can't get over there to type enter exitenter until later this afternoon. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I created this disk with sade or sysinstall. What I'm not sure about is that partition 'a' has an offset of 0. With an 8k big /boot/boot I would guess offset should be 16block large. But since the disk is booting, some boot1 loader ist located at sector 0 (from the beginning of this slice). How is it assured, that the first block will never be overwritten? Where is boot1 located, where boot2? Comparing the first sector with boot and boot1 differs already at the first char. (and there were no updates so far) That sector 0 lies outside of the slice block 0. What you are seeing is not an absolute disk offset, but the offset in to the slice. It is possible to create it otherwise but isn't done that way by default.Nowdays, actually a whole track is held out, instead of just sector 0 and that is where some of the fancier MBRs such as GRUB get their extra space to work. But, the standard FreeBSD MBR sticks to the official standard of just one sector - which is why it is so plain vanilla. jerry Little bemused regards, Adam -- ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
wget / wput
I began using wput recently. While wput completes a transfer, it always ends with a Segmentation fault: 11 if the wput is forced to fail (with an incorrect password for instance) it issues what appears to be a correct response: login-Sequence failed .. Transmission of 1 file failed. but if the transfer completes as expected, Seg fault every time! suggestions would be appreciated. This is on FreeBSD 7.0 i386, however I noticed the same error on 6.2 (and quit using wput for THAT reason). Now I *would* like to use it, but this is disconcerting. thanks, Jim ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

You probably want your NFS entries in fstab to have the noauto option, and you _definitely_ want the last two fields to be zeroes. Even if you _do_ want the NFS mounts to come up at boot I would still set them to be noauto and then write your own script to try to mount them later. Is there a way that I can set the machine to do its best to boot no matter what it finds at boot time? Thanks in advance for any help you can provide, The bootup rc script is just a sh script, you can hack it to do whatever you want. That said, it only bails out if there's a (potentially) significant problem. Given that this is a remote machine, you should be extra-careful when modifying anything to do with the startup process, especially fstab or any firewall rules. You could also look at options like a serial console, IP KVM, or something like a LightsOut card for your system.

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide, Depends on the whether or not the system needs something from the NFS mount at boot time. If it doesn't then you would do well to use amd (man 8 amd) to handle the mount. The short of is that amd automates the process of mounting a filesystem by presenting a directory. When a process requests a file within that directory amd performs the mount. Amd helps by deferring the mount until something actually needs something from the remote filesystem. Simpler still would be to change the mounts entry to noauto in /etc/ fstab. However then you or someone else will have to perform the mount when you need the filesystem. -- Chris ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

IV: How to submit a question to FreeBSD-questions V:How to answer a question to FreeBSD-questions I: Introduction === This is a regular posting aimed to help both those seeking advice from FreeBSD-questions (the newcomers), and also those who answer the questions (the hackers). Note that the term hacker has nothing to do with breaking into other people's computers. The correct term for the latter activity is cracker, but the popular press hasn't found out yet. The FreeBSD hackers disapprove strongly of cracking security, and have nothing to do with it. In the past, there has been some friction which stems from the different viewpoints of the two groups. The newcomers accused the hackers of being arrogant, stuck-up, and unhelpful, while the hackers accused the newcomers of being stupid, unable to read plain English, and expecting everything to be handed to them on a silver platter. Of course, there's an element of truth in both these claims, but for the most part these viewpoints come from a sense of frustration. In this document, I'd like to do something to relieve this frustration and help everybody get better results from FreeBSD-questions. In the following section, I recommend how to submit a question; after that, we'll look at how to answer one. II: How to unsubscribe from FreeBSD-questions == When you subscribed to FreeBSD-questions, you got a welcome message from [EMAIL PROTECTED] In this message, amongst other things, it told you how to unsubscribe. Here's a typical message: Welcome to the freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list! If you ever want to unsubscribe or change your options (eg, switch to or from digest mode, change your password, etc.), visit your subscription page at: http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/options/freebsd-questions/[EMAIL PROTECTED] (obviously, substitute your mail address for [EMAIL PROTECTED]). You can also make such adjustments via email by sending a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word 'help' in the subject or body (don't include the quotes), and you will get back a message with instructions. You must know your password to change your options (including changing the password, itself) or to unsubscribe. Normally, Mailman will remind you of your freebsd.org mailing list passwords once every month, although you can disable this if you prefer. This reminder will also include instructions on how to unsubscribe or change your account options. There is also a button on your options page that will email your current password to you. Here's the general information for the list you've subscribed to, in case you don't already have it: FREEBSD-QUESTIONS User questions This is the mailing list for questions about FreeBSD. You should not send how to questions to the technical lists unless you consider the question to be pretty technical. Normally, unsubscribing is even simpler than the message suggests: you don't need to specify your mail ID unless it is different from the one which you specified when you subscribed. If Majordomo replies and tells you (incorrectly) that you're not on the list, this may mean one of two things: 1. You have changed your mail ID since you subscribed. That's where keeping the original message from majordomo comes in handy. For example, the sample message above shows my mail ID as [EMAIL PROTECTED] Since then, I have changed it to [EMAIL PROTECTED] If I were to try to remove [EMAIL PROTECTED] from the list, it would fail: I would have to specify the name with which I joined. 2.

The Complete FreeBSD: errata and addenda
The trouble with books is that you can't update them the way you can a web page or any other online documentation. The result is that most leading edge computer books are out of date almost before they are printed. Unfortunately, The Complete FreeBSD, published by O'Reilly, is no exception. Inevitably, a number of bugs and changes have surfaced. The Complete FreeBSD has been through a total of five editions, including its predecessor Installing and Running FreeBSD. Two of these have been reprinted with corrections. I maintain a series of errata pages. Start at http://www.lemis.com/errata-4.html to find out how to get the errata information. Note also that the book has now been released for free download in PDF form. Instead of downloading the changed pages, you may prefer to download the entire book. See http://www.lemis.com/grog/Documentation/CFBSD/ for more information. Have you found a problem with the book, or maybe something confusing? Please let me know: I'm no longer constantly updating it, but I may be able to help Greg ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: 6.3 And VIA 8237S Controller - Also USB Drive Problem
Tim Daneliuk wrote: I just bought a new MSI P4M900M2 mobo. It works just fine with both Windoze and SUSE Linux. When I tried booting 6.2 on it, it refused to set the drive (ad0 - I tried several different drives) into the higher speed UDMA modes. So, I downloaded 6.3, and it *seemed* to be fine. The drives come up as UDMA 100 or UDMA 133. But ... under long disk operations - say untaring a 2G tarball stored on a USB drive - I start to see this: ad0: WARNING WRITE_DMA UDMA ICRC ERROR I have resolved this and thought I'd share with the class in case anyone else runs into the problem. It occurred to me that this chipset has been around long enough that it was very likely not a driver problem. I went back and replaced the IDE cable with another one known to be good and, voila', problem solved. What's weird about this is that the bad cable is a more-or-less new low profile round IDE cable I got from Tiger Direct a while back. It is the 20 variety which may be contributing noise to the problem. Weirder still is that neither Linux nor Windows seemed to have problems with it, though I did not test as thoroughly with those OSs. I'd guess that the FBSD driver is perhaps trying to squeeze the last bit of optimization out of the controller and thus drives the IDE bus to its limits, hence the problem shows up there. Either that, or I just didn't pound on the machine hard enough with Linux especially to see the problem. I should have guessed cable problem right away, but given the relative newness of the cable, that seemed unlikely. In a related note: I also discovered that the FreeBSD install CD Fixit environment does flakey things when you try to untar a large file from a USB drive plugged in through an external hub. Plugging the drive directly into one of the mobo ports made that problem go away. -- Tim Daneliuk [EMAIL PROTECTED] PGP Key: http://www.tundraware.com/PGP/ ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Self-respecting webservers support aliasing weblocations to physical directories, so in most cases it can be worked around.

Re: interactive stop on boot
Yeah, what CHris said. Also, there is an option you can put in fstab to allow the automount, and background the NFS mounts ... so that if the mount fails the boot will continue. Again, as mentioned, this will only work if the OS and your connection method (ssh daemon?) are not dependant on the NFS mounts. Here is what my fstab looks like. Note line 6 that specifies the -t=10,-b options (to timeout the mount after 10 seconds and to background the nfs mount). # DeviceMountpoint FStype Options Dump Pass# /dev/da0s1b noneswapsw 0 0 /dev/da0s1a / ufs rw 1 1 /dev/da0s1f /home ufs userquota,rw0 2 /dev/da0s1d /usrufs rw 2 2 /dev/da0s1e /varufs rw 2 2 nfsserver:/mnt /mntnfs -t=10,-b,rw 0 0 -Grant - Original Message - From: Christopher Sean Hilton [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Jason Barnes [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, March 14, 2008 12:03 PM Subject: Re: interactive stop on boot On Mar 14, 2008, at 11:24 AM, Jason Barnes wrote: Hi -- I'm running a Tombstone machine that's functioning as a server.

Is there a way that I can set the machine to do its best to boot no matter what it finds at boot time? Thanks in advance for any help you can provide, Depends on the whether or not the system needs something from the NFS mount at boot time. If it doesn't then you would do well to use amd (man 8 amd) to handle the mount. The short of is that amd automates the process of mounting a filesystem by presenting a directory. When a process requests a file within that directory amd performs the mount. Amd helps by deferring the mount until something actually needs something from the remote filesystem. Simpler still would be to change the mounts entry to noauto in /etc/ fstab. However then you or someone else will have to perform the mount when you need the filesystem. -- Chris ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

SATA problems (Abit IP35-Pro)
I am setting up a new system with Abit IP35-Pro (ich9r), 2 WD SATA drives on the controller. There is also a SATA DVDRW to boot from. With the default SATA setup (SATA/IDE) the system cannot find any SATA drive. I was able to boot the install disk, attaching an old IDE CDROM, but still could not make it see the hard drive. If I set SATA controller to AHCI, the system boots (although with some ACPI errors), and I was able to install. However, fdisk thinks that the geometry is incorrect, and insists on a different one (it says the drives have 476gb rather than 500gb). I can install with this AHCI setup, but have no idea what the implications are. Is there a known fix for SATA/IDE? Or is AHCI better? ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Virtualized FreeBSD
Hello All, I am currently running CentOS on a bunch of virtualized guest os's but need to upgrade them. I see that FreeBSD 7.0 is virtualized. Given a choice, I would rather use FreeBSD because of the ease of use of keeping the ports current. I am just wondering if anyone has used the virtualized FreeBSD in a producton environment and if so what are the pros and cons?

RE: interactive stop on boot
Jason, If there isn't anything needed from the NFS mounts, you can add intr,soft options to the /etc/fstab for each NFS share. Intr allows you to interrupt the NFS process with CTRL-C. You may not be available to do this, but you could call a user to do it. Soft allows the NFS client to fail, instead of hang. Or you could just delete the entries or have them noauto. Also, verify that the dump and pass# are set to zero. At least pass#, as if it is any other number, the background fschk will try to run and hang if not available (not ideal to run fschk on NFS mounts anyway) Hope this helps.

I don't care if it can't mount some irrelevant drive or not; I want it to boot up and ask me questions later.

Sync or Soft Updates or gjournal for fileserver
All, Here is the system specs: OS: FreeBSD-amd64 7.0-Release Processors: 2 Intel Xeon 5400 Quads Storage: ~438 GB RAID 5 (LSI 85016E 4 Seagate 15K Cheetahs) My question is with this setup (Have not assembled or installed yet), for a fileserver running Samba to share in mixed environment, what would be better, sync, soft updates or gjournal. From my understanding, sync is the most secure as far as data integrity but suffers from performance. Soft Updates is a mix between the two but from reading Lucas's Absolute FreeBSD, he says that it is best for drives under 80GB. Gjournal sounds like the answer but it is new and from my understand still considered experimental. As a file server, I would like to keep snapshots for quick recovery of files but if I am not mistaken this requires Soft Updates (I have additional backups, but I would like to run them off snapshots to keep the system available). Does gjournal support snapshots as well? Will Soft Updates work fine with this setup? This is for a production environment (it is replacing a Windows 2000 fileserver), so would sync be the best bet to ensure data integrity over the benefits of soft updates and gjournal? I have a fair amount of experience with FreeBSD (5+ years) and would normally just use Soft Updates but with the size of the storage involved, new features in 7, and both data integrity and performance being a concern, I am just not sure which would be best here. Any advice would be helpful.

[slightly off topic] Users of tikiwiki (on this list), question about the editors
Hi, I'm looking at possibly using tikiwiki. First off, does anyone here use it? Second, if so, is there a WYSIWYG editor for editing pages in it? I'm very curious to know about that. I've used wiki's before and for my church, I don't think many who would keep content on the site would like to use syntax like: +++ item 1 +++ item 2 etc. (The above is from memory, it's been quite a while and I didn't use it much.) Are there management interfaces that present users with rich text editors and they simply type what they want and the editor translates it to wiki? Thanks, Andy -- A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text. Q: Why is it such a bad thing? A: Top-posting.

Without it, you revert back to classical IDE over a SATA phy which doesn't really slow down the physical connection but adds a lot of driver overhead, i.e. by treating it as an IDE device, the driver performs a lot of unnecessary I/O access such as having to select the drive even though its point-to-point (serial), etc. -aps -- What lies behind us and what lies in front of us is of little concern to what lies within us. -Ralph Waldo Emerson ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

In the long term it's a good idea to do it, but there's no hurry unless you see a specific library problem. You could just install misc/compat5x, wait a bit and then do a portupgrade -f '2008-03-14' when most ports have been updated anyway. The problem with that advice is that it's extremely likely to result in some ports getting linked against some libraries from 5 and some from 6, which will probably result in them breaking. It's a much better idea to do everything at once in dependency order, before doing any other kind of port upgrades (or adding new ports, for that matter). ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I understand it is waiting at a breakpoint in gdb. What I meant was put
printf's in your code and run the program and look at the output. You can
use fprintf's to stderr if your prefer and just look at the stderr output.
It is hard to diagnose what could be a compiler error, or a coding
error. Remember in C you can do many things you really shouldn't. It is
also advisable to run lint over your source code too.

Hi Everyone, I've got freebsd 7.0 RELEASE AMD64 running with samba and ZFS. Everything seems to work, except samba is incorrectly reporting a small chunk of files. For certain files, the file appears twice on a windows machine but reading from both files yields the same file. For other files, it does not report the file at all. But if you copy the same file again, it will ask you if you want to replace the existing file. Additionally if you go onto the freebsd box and do an ls on the files, they will appear correctly (missing ones show up and duplicates do not). I tried two different windows boxes (vista and windows xp sp2) and both behave the same way. All permissions are set to 777 on all files. Any idea if this is a samba bug? ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

$4 = 6
Notice, the first time i print it its zero. The second time its 6.
What gives here? I have seen this before but couldn't pin it down.
The program is not compiled with any optimization. It is in a
shared
library though.
It is hard to tell without the code you used. I would put some
printf's in the code and see what and when that variable gets set to
in actual running code.

I understand it is waiting at a breakpoint in gdb. What I meant was
put printf's in your code and run the program and look at the
output. You can use fprintf's to stderr if your prefer and just
look at the stderr output.
It is hard to diagnose what could be a compiler error, or a coding
error. Remember in C you can do many things you really shouldn't.
It is also advisable to run lint over your source code too.
All that lint shows is it doesn't like comments using // and lots of
errors in /usr/include files.

RE: FreeBSD bind performance in FreeBSD 7
-Original Message- From: Peter Schuller [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, March 10, 2008 2:02 AM To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Cc: Ted Mittelstaedt; Chris; Adrian Chadd Subject: Re: FreeBSD bind performance in FreeBSD 7 The people complaining about hardware compatibility need to pull their heads out. If they are buying brand new systems they are utter fools if they don't check out in advance what works and what doesen't. It's not like there's a shortage of experienced people on this list who could tell them what to buy. And if after the fact they find out their shiny new PC won't run FreeBSD - then they take it back to the retailer and exchange it for a different model. Why is this so difficult? The difficulty is not in checking out hardware before hand, the problem is FINDING hardware that satisfies your requirements. Just because I know that NIC so-and-so is recommended, it does not mean that I can find a complete server that: * Is within the budget. * Whose NIC is recommended for use in FreeBSD. * Whose disk/raid controller is recommended for use in FreeBSD - Including proper handling of write caching, cache flushing, etc * Is being sold in a fashion that is acceptable with respect to hardware support / replacement parts. * Otherwise is known to work with well FreeBSD. If you are a large company buying 200 servers I'm sure it's not a problem to get sample servers to try things on, or go for more expensive options just because of perceived FreeBSD compatibility. If you're a poor sod trying to get *one* machine for personal or small-company use and you want something that works and is stable, especially if you want it rack mountable, it is NOT necessarily trivial. Part of it is the problem of finding a solution that meets the requirements, and parts of it is about figuring out whether a particular solution DOES meet the requirements. For example, once your cheaper Dell server has arrived and you suddenly notice that it's delivered without a BBU, and clearly has write caching turned on based on performance, try asking (remember, this is a lonely customer with a single service) Dell hardware support whether that particular controller will honor cache flush requests right down to the constituent drives... I did, and eventually got a response after 1-2 weeks. But the response was such that I could not feel confident that the question was accurately forwarded to the right individual. That is exactly why computer consulting firms (like the one that partly owns the ISP I work for) exist. There's a list of them on the FreeBSD website that sell hardware. For the poor sod trying to get 1 machine, he has a choice: pay a trivial couple hundred bucks to a consulting firm that sells PCs to small businesses to supply the system he needs for his business do it himself and deal with all of the research beforehand, and all the post-support hassles with Dell or HP or whatever. You see, the problem is that the small business/home office types see these consumer-adverts in the backs of the newspaper for a $299.99 Dell, and they immediately assume a computer is a computer is a computer, and that they shouldn't have to pay a consultant more than $50 to provide everything with all the trimmings to them - because after all a consultant is going to do is just pick up the phone and place the order, eh? (frankly, the FBSD folk have it easy - this attitude is 10 times worse in the Mickeysoft consulting business) For the home user, his choice is either spending the $300 and crossing his fingers and hope the thing works at all, or actually approaching it from a professional point of view and doing what the businesses are supposed to be doing - that is, hiring a consultant that knows what they are doing, or spending the same amount of time and money that a knowledgeable consultant spent. You think I got my knowledge for free? I have a basement full of old computer hardware I bought over the years while I learned that says otherwise. Care for an $80 CGA card? Now do you see why consultants go crazy with that your knowledge ain't worth anything attitude? As long as the FreeBSD community cops the attitude that FBSD is only for do-it-yourselfers, it's going to be largely ignored by most of the business community. In any case, I can count the number of people who have posted I'm planning on getting a system that is going to run FreeBSD what should I get questions on the mailing list in the last year on the fingers of 1 hand, I think, so I really tend to discount this argument. I'll repeat, the vast majority of people complaining about hardware problems with FreeBSD are the folks who bought first, THEN when something didn't work, came running to the mailing list. And the vast majority of them claim they cannot take it back because it's past the UCC-mandated 30-day return timeperiod, so returning the stuff isn't an option. (of
RE: wget / wput
-Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Jim Pazarena Sent: Friday, March 14, 2008 7:47 AM To: FreeBSD Mailing List Subject: wget / wput I began using wput recently. While wput completes a transfer, it always ends with a Segmentation fault: 11 if the wput is forced to fail (with an incorrect password for instance) it issues what appears to be a correct response: login-Sequence failed .. Transmission of 1 file failed. but if the transfer completes as expected, Seg fault every time! suggestions would be appreciated. This is on FreeBSD 7.0 i386, however I noticed the same error on 6.2 (and quit using wput for THAT reason). Now I *would* like to use it, but this is disconcerting. File a send-pr, this is obviously a bug with the port and the port maintainer should correct it. seg-faults happen when the programmer makes a mistake in the code, the port manager should have caught this and either corrected the bug or pursued it with the developer of wput. If a porter can't get a program to build without segfaulting under FBSD and they cannot get help from the developer, they should abandon the port. In the meantime, try going to the site that the wput program is hosted at and downloading the source, then compile it according to the directions in the wput distribution, and see if it still segfaults.
