Hi,
I am new to BSD world, yet enjoying very much OpenBSD 6.1 that I have
installed recently. As a newcomer I have some questions, sorry for having a
mix of everything.

1. I have a pendrive with ext3fs

fdisk output on Debian:
Disk /dev/sdc: 29.8 GiB, 32027705344 bytes, 62554112 sectors
Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes

   a:         62554112                0 ISO9660
   c:         62554112                0 ISO9660


What is that I am missing? To my understanding OpenBSD does handle ext3, is
this some kind of a problem with partition table on the drive? I did put
ISO image of Debian testing on that drive with cp before, but than deleted
all partitions created new and formatted the drive. After mounting sd2a
I can see directory tree of ISO image that originally was on that drive,
content of the files is obviously all messed up. sd2c cannot be mounted
"Device not configured".

It sounds like part of the special hybrid iso+HD image format from the Debian
image remains on the disk. Generally it's best to dd zeros over the start of
a drive before reusing it, especially with a special format like that.

What I would do in this situation is copy the data off, "dd if=/dev/zero
of=/dev/rsdXc bs=1m count=1" (replace X with the correct device number),
repartition and reformat, then copy the data back.

I wouldn't recommend ext2fs, it's not very widely used so you're more likely
to run into a problem. Likewise I wouldn't use FFS support on Linux for the
same reason. FAT32 is a safer choice if you need to share the filesystem.


Thank you. Used both of your suggestions and this worked.

2. Firefox
Seem to have problems with certain sites with js - cannot get through to
log in into protonmail.com, Epiphany handles it without any problems. This
is not associated with any addons that I have on FF, tried in on fresh
vanilla FF and result is the same. Did anyone observe similar issue?
Resolving suggestions?

Try raising the datasize limit, either try "ulimit -d $((2048*1024))" before
running firefox, or raise datasize-cur in the 'staff' class in /etc/login.conf
and logout and back in. (adjust the actual value as necessary).


Both datasize-max and datasize-cur already set to higher limits (2048M) in /etc/login.conf.

I checked FF console, this is what it spits out.

3. Audio
With headphones in there is a slight white noise that can be heard. I do
not have that effect while on Debian. This effect does not go away when
playing sound or reducing volume to 0 (xfce4-mixer). Any suggestions?

No idea personally. But reply to the list with output of mixerctl, audioctl
and dmesg (inline, not attached) and see if someone else has an idea.



Thanks to Zé's comments I just went with
mixerctl output.master.mute=on
maybe not the cleanest solution, but worked.

Thank you for all suggestion and guidance.
