pidgin problem on 8.0
I have pidgin installed on 2 FreeBSD 8.0/32 i386 systems. 1) FreeBSD 8.0-STABLE #0: Wed May 5 10:17:16 EDT 2010 - pidgin-2.6.6_1 2) FreeBSD 8.0-STABLE #0: Mon May 17 00:51:56 EDT 2010 - pidgin-2.7.0_1 #1 is fine; #2 works but no icons are found. On #2 I first installed the package and then built pidgin which required me to re-build libpurple. Both the package and the compiled versions exhibit the same behavior. I turned on the debugging window, finding nothing. _ Douglas Denault http://www.safeport.com d...@safeport.com Voice: 301-217-9220 Fax: 301-217-9277 ___ 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

Re: Verifying a DVD
El día Sunday, May 23, 2010 a las 03:23:26PM -0700, Doug Hardie escribió: I am periodically backing up a bunch of files to DVD. I use mkisofs to create the original image and growisofs to write it to a real DVD. However, at that point I want to verify that the write was successful. I tried using dd to read back in the DVD to a file. Its interesting that the bs parameter must be at least 2048 or dd complains about a parameter error. However, the big issues is that the original image file is shorter than the read file. The difference is 10240 bytes. This difference is the same for bs 2048, 10240, or 102400. It appears that dd is adding one last block. Is there a way to prevent this or remove that block?___ I think it isn't important how many blocks are on the DVD, but more important that a) all files area readable on the DVD and b) are MD5 identically with the original on the hard disk.

After upgrading to kde-4.4.3 screen goes black after the kde4 splash screen
I found that renaming ~/.kde4 makes things better and kde4 boots like for the first time. But how do I get my previous settings back? Still even with the fresh ~/.kde4 screen looks funny: Desktop Folder doesn't have any color so only text is visible, same with the task panel.

dump/restore (to DVD+R) test failure
Hello, It took reading the source code of a backup front-end to figure out that incremental backups are not the same thing as multiple incremental backups on the same medium; spilling over to the next disk if necessary. As the handbook (section 18.12.1) says, dump has quirks due to its design dating back to 1975. Optical write-once media was punch tape or cards. Seeking to the middle of the media was time consuming, so daily tapes were simply written from the beginning, then rewound. So, knowing this, I decided to test a full dump and restore to DVD+R media, following the example in the dump(8) man page. I suspect that the example was written with DVD-R in mind, but according to wikipedia, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DVD-R#Recordable_DVD_capacity_comparison the smaller DVD+R media can handle the example in dump(8) with 184 2048 byte blocks to spare (implying the example intended 3576 spare sectors). The package for the DVD media just says 4.7 GB with only 2 significant digits. I used the following command for the dump: $/sbin/dump -0u -L -C16 -B4589840 -P 'growisofs -Z -dvd-compat /dev/cd0=/dev/fd/0' /home Growisofs said 4700372992 bytes were written on the first disk (my notes don't record exactly which disk that was). That works out to 4590208kiB or 2295104 sectors. Edit: This matches the Wikipedia number; I assumed it to included zero padding I tried the restore on a fresh freeBSD 8.0 install with no user accounts created (and atapicam not yet enabled): dusty# cd /home #restore -r -P 'dd if=/dev/acd0 of=/dev/fd/1 bs=2048 count=2294920' warning: ./.snap: File exists expected next file 706561, got 4 unknown tape header type -365754194 abort?

I suspect those may be corruption caused by a buffer underrun or local vibration. Questions: 1. How do I determine which files (if any) are affected? is verbose mode required for that? 2. It appears the first disk lost 712 sectors of data (and a total of 896 sectors of capacity) with that read error. Should I just burn the disks 1024-4096 sectors short? 3. What is the best way to verify dumps at dump time? I still have the data on another disk. I can restore it with dd if need be. I verified the newfs command appears to create a .snap directory by default now.

In other words, something's gone wrong in the configure step. The Configure script grep's for vm_memattr_t in ${LSOF_INCLUDE}/sys/conf.h and sets HAS_VM_MEMATTR_T if the grep succeeds. The build failure tells us that your /usr/src/sys/conf.h uses vm_memattr_t, so it seems the Configure is testing some other copy of conf.h -- because LSOF_INCLUDE is set to something other than /usr/src? The default for LSOF_INCLUDE is /usr/include.

Oops, some typos here. /usr/src should be /usr/src/sys throughout, and conf.h is in /usr/src/sys/sys. Makes no difference to the line of thought, however.
