FreeBSD 8 as VirtualBox guest: `ngctl list` shows nothing
Hi all, I have a VirtualBox guest which is running FreeBSD-8.0. I compiled the kernel for this guest with the options NETGRAPH in /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/GENERIC.

Undefined symbol libintl_bindtextdomain
I am trying to build (FreeBSD 8.0) a bleeding edge python (latest unladen swallow) with gcc44 and am getting mostly good results. However, one of the standard modules is failing to load at runtime because of an undefined symbol libintl_bindtextdomain I looked in /user/local/lib/libintl.so and see that the symbol is there. In the module of interest we don't seem to refer to libintl $ LD_LIBRARY_PATH=`pwd` ldd _locale_failed.so _locale_failed.so: libutil.so.8 = /lib/libutil.so.8 (0x281ad000) libgcc_s.so.1 = /lib/libgcc_s.so.1 (0x281bc000) libc.so.7 = /lib/libc.so.7 (0x28091000) however, there are references in the text of _locale_failed.so.

Packages vs Ports

Blacklisting a SourceForge mirror from ports?
in ports/Mk/bsd.sites.mk, the list of SourceForge mirrors is defined by:
.for mirror in heanet sunet iweb switch surfnet kent freefr \
voxel jaist osdn nchc transact softlayer \
internode biznetnetworks ufpr
# garr dfn ovh (redirect as of 2009-Sep-02)
MASTER_SITE_SOURCEFORGE+= \
http://${mirror}.dl.sourceforge.net/project/%SUBDIR%/
.endfor
.endif
The problem is that the first mirror, heanet, is glacially slow every
time I try to download from it. Transfers of 5-10KB/s aren't unheard
of. When I see that a large tarball is coming down from heanet, I'll
routinely kill the transfer and manually download it.
In my /etc/make.conf, I have:
MASTER_SITE_SOURCEFORGE=http://sunet.dl.sourceforge.net/%SUBDIR%/
That *usually* works, but will often return a redirect, in which case
the fetch goes back to using the list of mirrors, starting with heanet,
which puts me back in the same predicament.
I could obviously edit bsd.sites.mk to remove that entry, but updates
could wipe out my changes. Worse, if the SF layout changes and
bsd.sites.mk is updated to reflect the new structure, a locally edited
version wouldn't have those fixes.
All that said, is there a better way to specify SourceForge mirrors? A
blacklist would be ideal for this specific situation, but I'm open to ideas.

Re: Blacklisting a SourceForge mirror from ports?
I don't know about blacklisting, however you may want to look at the port
called fastest_sites:
/usr/ports/ports-mgmt/fastest_sites]$ cat pkg-descr
Find the fastest mirror for every mirror list in bsd.sites.mk.
Output is suitable for inclusion into make.conf.

On Wed, Dec 23, 2009 at 11:38:01AM -0600, Kirk Strauser thus spake:
in ports/Mk/bsd.sites.mk, the list of SourceForge mirrors is defined by:
.for mirror in heanet sunet iweb switch surfnet kent freefr \
voxel jaist osdn nchc transact softlayer \
internode biznetnetworks ufpr
# garr dfn ovh (redirect as of 2009-Sep-02)
MASTER_SITE_SOURCEFORGE+= \
http://${mirror}.dl.sourceforge.net/project/%SUBDIR%/
.endfor
.endif
The problem is that the first mirror, heanet, is glacially slow every
time I try to download from it. Transfers of 5-10KB/s aren't unheard
of. When I see that a large tarball is coming down from heanet, I'll
routinely kill the transfer and manually download it.
In my /etc/make.conf, I have:
MASTER_SITE_SOURCEFORGE=http://sunet.dl.sourceforge.net/%SUBDIR%/
That *usually* works, but will often return a redirect, in which case
the fetch goes back to using the list of mirrors, starting with heanet,
which puts me back in the same predicament.
I could obviously edit bsd.sites.mk to remove that entry, but updates
could wipe out my changes. Worse, if the SF layout changes and
bsd.sites.mk is updated to reflect the new structure, a locally edited
version wouldn't have those fixes.
All that said, is there a better way to specify SourceForge mirrors? A
blacklist would be ideal for this specific situation, but I'm open to ideas.

Hello,
It's been a while I struggeling how to deal with apf/netatalk passing trough my

firewall on my server). I tried the following rule but it still don't lets me
in:
pass in log on $int_if inet proto { tcp, udp } from $localnet to ($int_if)
port=548 flags S/SA keep state
When I try a telnet on port 548 I got Operation timed out, in pflog I can see
that my Mac tries to connect but I have no clue why it can't when the
coresponding port is open, do you have any idea?
Thank you!

Arrr. Same problem here at startup: segfault in glXGetFBConfigAttribSGIX. A
simple test case is the following:

py...@nox:~% ./test

Voila! (Admittedly much to my surprise ;))
So then I changed the Makefile to use these libraries: -lGLU -lSDL -lSDL_gfx.
Result: a perfectly working ./lennardjones. The only minor issue is that it
presented me with exactly one option:
py...@nox:~/temp/lennard-jones-gas-3d% ./lennardjones
Current pixel depth: 32
Available Modes
0 = 3840 x 1200
Select your preferred video mode:
So apparently I prefer mode 0 :D. It run fine (and smooth) though.
It is clear something goes wrong during the runtime linking process, which
this library order works around. The actual problem is still a mystery to me.
It might be worthwhile to post a bugreport on the nvnews.net FreeBSD forum.

Re: FreeBSD 8.0 not detecting hot swap drive insertion
It should be noted that my raid controller driver (htprr) is exhibiting the same issue. Before 8.0, both the ata and htprr drivers would recognize a HD insertion and the disks information would be scanned and device nodes created. On 8.0, the best I can see is that the drive insertion is detected (the htprr driver prints a message about drive insertion/removal), but the disks are never scanned for drive information nor device nodes created. Rob P.S. My apologies if I posted this twice. I didn't see it get to the list. Rob wrote: I don't have any /dev/ada* devices, so I assume I'm using the original ata driver. I haven't done any kernel customization, and am running the distribution's kernel (upgraded with the freebsd-update tool). Does the older driver no longer detect drive insertion? Rob Steve Polyack wrote: Rob wrote: I'm running a 10 hot-swap SATA disk ZFS pool and recently upgraded from 7.2 to 8. Since I upgraded, freebsd isn't spinning up or recognizing a new drive that is inserted. In freebsd 7.[0,2], I could remove a drive and insert a new one and freebsd would recognize it, spin it up, and create the device nodes. None of that is happening in 8.0, and the only way I've found to get it to recognize the disk is to reboot the system. I tried using atacontrol to force freebsd to reinit an ata channel, but that didn't have any effect. Did something change in 8.0 that prevents this auto-detection? Is there a way to re-enable it? Are you using the original (7.x) ata(4) driver or the newer enhanced SATA drivers like ahci(4) or siis(4)? If you're using the latter your devices will be labeled /dev/ada* instead of /dev/ad*. If you are indeed using the newer enhanced SATA drivers, you will need to use camcontrol to reset and rescan the associated SATA channels. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

Arrr. Same problem here at startup: segfault in glXGetFBConfigAttribSGIX. A
simple test case is the following:
py...@nox:~% cat test.c
int main() {}
py...@nox:~% cc -o test test.c -L/usr/local/lib -lSDL -lGL
py...@nox:~% ./test
zsh: segmentation fault (core dumped) ./test
Then I attempted to switch the arguments around...
py...@nox:~% cc -o test test.c -L/usr/local/lib -lGL -lSDL
py...@nox:~% ./test
py...@nox:~%
Voila! (Admittedly much to my surprise ;))
So then I changed the Makefile to use these libraries: -lGLU -lSDL
-lSDL_gfx. Result: a perfectly working ./lennardjones. The only minor
issue is that it presented me with exactly one option:
py...@nox:~/temp/lennard-jones-gas-3d% ./lennardjones
Current pixel depth: 32
Available Modes
0 = 3840 x 1200
Select your preferred video mode:
So apparently I prefer mode 0 :D. It run fine (and smooth) though.
It is clear something goes wrong during the runtime linking process, which
this library order works around. The actual problem is still a mystery to
me. It might be worthwhile to post a bugreport on the nvnews.net FreeBSD
forum.
Best regards,
Pieter de Goeje
Pieter, many, many thanks for taking the time to test and diagnose this. Your
solution works perfectly: ensure that libGLU PRECEDES all the SDL libraries in
the link line of the Makefile. Wow! I never would have thought
About your allowable modes being only 3840 x 1200: I had the same issue at
work (Linux) where I run dual monitors (2 x 1680 x 1050). Just create an
NVIDIA metamode in your xorg.conf that blanks one monitor (I do not recall the
exact syntax here, but I think you need to use NULL for the one monitor). It
is also useful for some games ;-) Then you can use one screen and avoid
staring at the crack between your monitors during simulations.
Again, many thanks. This for me is proof that I can continue to do some
scientific programming (with rendering in 3D) under FreeBSD .

Are you sure about that? On my FreeBSD 8 system, I just tried this: cd /etc ls /home/ckester and the result was a listing of my home directory, not some directory under /etc. Yet the result of ls -ld /home on my system is the same as above. The symlink named home is found in the root directory / and the relative path usr/home is apparently relative to that root directory, not the current directory. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

Wrong. Relative paths in symlinks start at the symlink is in, not the current directory. I.e. that the symlink is relative should not be a problem. (Under AmigaOS relative symlinks worked as you describe, which made them a PITA and fairly useless, but under Unix relative symlinks have a more sane behaviour.) -- Insert your favourite quote here.
