I had similar trouble, but can burn under windows (except 2k which is
buggy)

  There are some scripts in /usr/share/examples/atapi, which you might get
  to use.  If you get better results, you might like to investigate what
  the two programs to differently and try to fix burncd.

Re: remove empty TEMPROOT dirs at mergemaster's end? (was: cvs commit: src/usr.sbin/mergemaster mergemaster.sh)

  I think I am confused, but that's why we like to solicit

  directory behind and there are real files left to deal with mm
  spits out a list of files for your consideration, which can be
  handled with 'mergemaster -r' or by hand.
 
 That's when I thought "Why not make the directory hierarchy look
 like the mm list of what needs further attention?  Without
 burying these files in a tree with mostly empty directories.".

But that only matters to people who go in there by hand, and that's a very
small percentage. 
 
 I'm human and thus I'm subject to forgetting what I've seen
 before on the screen (the file list) once I had a look at the
 first two files and managing the needed merge. :)

99% of the files you'd ever want to merge by hand are in /etc. Not too
hard to remember. :)
 
 Maybe what is left to do is a one (or two) line patch adding some
 
   echo 'to remove the empty dirs but leave the files intact type'
   echo '"find' ${TEMPROOT} '-type d -size 0 -delete" (w/o quotes)'

I was attempting to make a rather poor joke, actually. It would be much
easier to do 'find . -type f -size +0'. The point is that mm already
handles the cases that a normal user is likely to need handled. People who
want to go tromping through directory structures should be learning the
proper use of unix commands that already exist for those purposes. For
instance, if you actually wanted to prune the directory structure 'find -d
. -type d -links 2 -exec rmdir {} \;' would do a pretty good job

Crystal Semi (pcm) Audio card probing problem

2000-08-19 Thread Kevin Oberman

This may be related to the problem reported in the "pcm0 play interrupt
timeout, channel dead" thread. The problem in that the Crystal Audio
sound card on my ThinkPad 600E is inconsistently probed. The result is
that it is sometimes pcm0 and sometimes pcm1.

If I get this from my device probe, the CS423x is pcm1:
csa0: Crystal Semiconductor CS4610/4611 Audio accelerator mem 
0x5000-0x500f,0x5010-0x50100fff irq 11 at device 6.0 on pci0
pcm0: CS461x PCM Audio on csa0
pcm0: ac97 codec invalid or not present (id == 0)
device_probe_and_attach: pcm0 attach returned 6
pcm1: CS423x-PCI at port 0x530-0x537,0x388-0x38b,0x220-0x233 irq 5 drq 1,0 on isa0

But, it it probes like this, the "real" sound device is pcm0:
csa0: Crystal Semiconductor CS4610/4611 Audio accelerator mem 
0x5000-0x500f,0x5010-0x50100fff irq 11 at device 6.0 on pci0
device_probe_and_attach: csa0 attach returned 6
pcm0: CS423x-PCI at port 0x530-0x537,0x388-0x38b,0x220-0x233 irq 5
drq 1,0 on isa0

It seems about 50/50 on which way it probes for any given reboot. Of
course, every time it flips, I need to log in a s root and switch the
device over. This is at least a bit of a pain.

Has anyone got an explanation of why this happens and if there is a
chance of getting it fixed? It bothers me when my system acts in a
non-deterministic fashion in something that should be as repeatable as
a device probe! It also wastes irq 11 in the first case and I have a
tight IRQ situation on that system, in any case.

It's been doing this since I upgraded to 4.0-Stable about a month
after 4.0 was released and about three days after Xircom Ethernet
support went in. It may have been doing it under 3.4, but I never used
the audio, so I really don't know.

I guess it was removed for 4.x since burncd was added.  The burndata
script is basically just:

device=/dev/r$1
wormcontrol -f$device prepdisk double
wormcontrol -f$device track data
dd if=$2 of=$device bs=20k
wormcontrol -f$device fixate 1 onp

I don't know if this will help though, or even if it will work at all.
I guess you'll get the same problem as this probably does similar things
to burncd.

Re: custom kernel problem

2000-08-19 Thread Philippe CASIDY

Hi!

The result of the 'file' command on the generated core file (if any)
would help knowing which tool really segfault!

Phil.

On 18 Aug, Greg Prosser wrote:
 Is it the compiler or make that is segfaulting?
 
 Better phrasing: Do any other system binaries segfault? Is there a
 noticeable pattern or perhaps similarities?
 
 The last time I worked on a machine where make/other stuff started
 segfaulting, it turned out to be 'cc' segfaulting, and that was at the
 fault of either some bad ram, or other hardware issues. The machine doing
 this was an OC'd cpu, and when it was restored to normal speed I'm told
 the problems stopped, but I'm not sure.
 
 If it is make that is segfaulting, on the other hand, and if nothing else
 appears to have the problem, try going into /usr/src and just rebuilding
 make, perhaps one of your compiles went bad in the past.

bad /dev/cuaa1??

2000-08-19 Thread Gary Kline


This is rather bizarre.  I have two virtually identical USR modems;
I also have vitually identical ppp and tip and cu setup--I just
copied over tarballs from this system to sage.thought.org.

According to ppp:

  Warning: deflink: /dev/cuaa1: Bad file descriptor

tip and cu (cu -pport1 dir) indicate that something is amiss with
/dev/cuaa1.  The LED's are on my older modem are not what they
were some months ago.  If I remember correctly the switches in
back were fine so I shouldn't have to change anything.

Can anybody figure out how to get this second link working?

thanks much,

gary

Well, it would be nice to know the usual background.  Hardware, OS
release (are you running FreeBSD?  The only thing that says so is that
fairly specific message saying that the probe isn't getting any
interrupts).

 (XF86Setup fails 100% too.)

It's a 200MHz P5, modem is a USR Sportster that ran well
on _this_ system (tao) for  4 years.  The other box is
running 4.0-RELEASE. 

I'm trying to get both boxes working with modems because I'm
getting close to upgrading this platform to 4.1; also because
I'd like to experiment with dial-in ...
