We aren't an Operating Systems vendor that offers a product for sale. Instead, we are a group of like-minded people who like to produce and give away, for free, an operating system. There isn't really any overarching company that offers FreeBSD support in the way you are looking for; instead, you should look for a contractor -- the freebsd-j...@freebsd.org list might be a better place to ask. Considering the list of hardware you've supplied -- I can't see any obvious problems with FreeBSD compatibility (but I could be wrong) -- however, that's the sort of thing that tends to get sorted out in the first day or so of work. Could you expand a bit more on what you want in terms of FreeBSD support? What the purpose of the system is to be, what applications you want to run, expectations of what you want the support person to provide? Cheers, Matthew -- Dr Matthew J Seaman MA, D.Phil.

Such a business model would imo do wonders to promote FreeBSD as a professional OS. Like I said though -- the problem is not with having such a business, but with establishing the business. Even a company like iXSystems that has been active in this area for more than 10 years has not managed to grow into a company with a visible global presence. It is also the case that many large concerns simply will not deal with small companies: unless your balance-sheet and turnover are big enough you just don't get a look in on any contracts that may be available. (Yes, this is a short-sighted approach, but you can appreciate the reasoning behind it: small companies are much riskier propositions, and do tend to go bust much more easily.) If there's anybody out there that knows how to do this -- take an idea and turn it into a working business -- but doesn't have the right idea yet: look over here!

Help compiling ffmpeg from source
I'm on FreeBSD 8.2 STABLE (AMD64). I need to install the latest ffmpeg 0.10, but it fails when compiling. I must admit I very rarely do it this way. Normally all software is installed from ports, but I couldn't find this version of ffmpeg there. Heres what I do: ./configure gmake and the problem looks like this: [snip] /var/tmp//ccKzWhb0.s:26921: Error: `ff_h264_norm_shift(%r10d)' is not a valid 64 bit base/index expression /var/tmp//ccKzWhb0.s:26923: Error: `ff_h264_mlps_state+128(%edi)' is not a valid 64 bit base/index expression /var/tmp//ccKzWhb0.s:26931: Error: `-1(%r9d)' is not a valid 64 bit base/index expression /var/tmp//ccKzWhb0.s:26936: Error: `ff_h264_norm_shift(%ecx)' is not a valid 64 bit base/index expression /var/tmp//ccKzWhb0.s:27045: Error: `ff_h264_lps_range(%r9d,%r12d,2)' is not a valid 64 bit base/index expression /var/tmp//ccKzWhb0.s:27055: Error: `ff_h264_norm_shift(%r12d)' is not a valid 64 bit base/index expression /var/tmp//ccKzWhb0.s:27057: Error: `ff_h264_mlps_state+128(%r9d)' is not a valid 64 bit base/index expression /var/tmp//ccKzWhb0.s:27065: Error: `-1(%r11d)' is not a valid 64 bit base/index expression /var/tmp//ccKzWhb0.s:27070: Error: `ff_h264_norm_shift(%ecx)' is not a valid 64 bit base/index expression gmake: *** [libavcodec/h264_cabac.o] Error 1 Any idea what I can do to fix this?

For firewall use remember that the Model B has only one ether socket (and the Model A has none). Anyone know how good USB ether adapters are? I've never used one.

Is there any way to figure out what it means ? Some time ago I had a similar problem with an external WD Scorpio Blue disk. As my point of view, it tends to park its heads too often, even under heavy load, so this results in a clicking. As far as I remember, you can check Load_Cycle_Count from SMART output. Take some measurements during minute or two.

To PXE-boot a VM guest, set networking to to Bridged and use the PCnet-PCI II (Am79C970A) adapter type. If the host is FreeBSD, the vboxnet kernel module has to be loaded. Please emphasize that the PCnet-PCI II card emulation is necessary. I was trying the Intel emulation and making no progress. I then noticed your page and tried the PCnet-PCI II card and it started working. I would guess that means their Intel card emulation is incomplete. I took it for granted the bridge part (I usually use it anyway), but I would never have guessed the PCnet card in a blue fit! There was even a PR on virtualbox for the issue of the lack of PXE with Oracle basically saying too bad, so sad Apparently PXE licensing didn't allow them to distribute it directly, but offer an extension pack (which doesn't work on FBSD) instead. Ergo my conclusion. Apparently (based on this thread) it only affects intel cards though...
