ACPI Errors - IBM Thinkpad A31p
Hi Folks, I see this error while booting into BSD and I presume this might be the problem that acpi on my TP does not work.

I've never ever needed to cleanup lib. Are you sure that's absolutely required? Also, for upgrading from 4.x already has the bit about nuking /usr/include/gcc. I've never needed to do more. What libraries are bad that need to be removed, specifically? Or is this just paranoia inspired? Kerberos/Heimdal have sometimes failed with old libraries. Also, ports can find wrong libraries at configure time and behave strangely. M -- Mark Murray Beware!

Polled mode with device.hints
Hello, I'm currently updating some part of the Handbook for 5.X, and I need to know how to put some ports like sio0 or ppc0 in polled mode. I did a search and tried some syntax like 0 for the irq etc. but no way to put something in polled mode or to find an info on it. It's a lack of device.hints(5) and some devices manual pages :) Marc To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-current in the body of the message

The box is a Dual AMD 1400+ MP, with 512 DDR RAM, IDE 40 GB (IBM). Tyan Tiger mothboard and a Intel 107100 NIC (fxp). FreeBSD 4.7 worked perfectly fine on this box!

UFS2 and disklabel fstype
Hello there, As UFS2 is not backward compatible at all, I wonder why the old fstype in disklabel is being kept: #size offsetfstype [fsize bsize bps/cpg] a: 102400004.2BSD 2048 16384 64008 # (Cyl.0 - 63*) c: 186103260unused0 0 # (Cyl.0 - 1158*) d: 17586326 10240004.2BSD 2048 16384 28552 # (Cyl. 63*- 1158*) This is a disklabel of my newly installed -DP2 system. Partition a is formatted as UFS, while d is UFS2. I wonder, is there any reason for not distincting these filesystems on disklabel level? Would specyfying different fstype for UFS2 (whatever you call it then) break something? It's not a real problem, but in some cases may confuse someone. I've done some googling, but didn't find any discussion on this topic, so I'm writing here. -- -- wrzask --= v =-- Winfried --=-- GG# 3838383 --=-- JS500-RIPE -- -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] --- [EMAIL PROTECTED] --===-- http://violent.dream.vg/ --- --= Ride the wild wind - push the envelope, don't sit on the fence, --- -- Ride the wild wind - live life on the razor's edge! =-- Queen -- To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-current in the body of the message

sshd and lastlog permissions
Maybe I am missing something, but... On my -CURRENT box (current as of last night). After a fresh install (no tinkering with settings), when I use ssh to connect from a remote host, I get the following error: sshd[pid]: /var/log/lastlog: Permission denied Also, the following processes are running: root PID ... ?? I 0:00.xx sshd: user [priv] (sshd) user PID ... ?? I 0:00.xx sshd: user@ttyp0 (sshd) On my 4.7-STABLE box, when I connect with ssh, I get the following process: root PID ... ?? I 0:00.xx sshd: user@ttyp0 (sshd) So obviously, there is this difference in ownership of sshd: user@ttyp0 (sshd). Like I said, this is a fresh install with no config changes.

using 5.0-RELEASE
Hi, just a question to the possibilies using 5.0-RELEASE. In the early adopters guide (chapter 1) it's written, that 5.0-RELEASE should be as stable as possible to getting a large number of users to test. But if it's not recommented to use it in production environments, what test results do you expect? Wouldn't it better to say: 5.0-CURRENT is not recommented for production environments (as it's said 'bout using -STABLE blindly), 5.0-RELEASE may be used in non-critical environment, but heavily use of backup tool is recommented? I know many companies located in Halle (where we resides) which are using linux, not because it's more stable but because SuSE tells: it's 8.0 and we tested and it's great. The simply believe the recommendation of SuSE (or whoever) and if sth. fails, they think: Hmm - nothing paid, who really cares? And if I take a look to may AIX box, FBSD 5.0-CURRENT is more stable than my AIX 4.3.3, because of the ports tree (in AIX I must do all by myself).

The answer is that your other patches have not been committed to gcc, so any changes to gcc, other than configuration, would have to be maintained in the FreeBSD repository. I personally have no problem with this, if it makes Objective C work where it didn't before, and doesn't impact and other code, or non-Objective C compilations. But I am not the maintainer, and David O'Brien is, so it is him you have to convince, since it is for him you are making extra work. I don't really feel a need to convince. If people are too busy (or just do not care) to maintain ObjC within FreeBSD, then I'll just have to do it locally. Its actually less work for me to keep my patches to myself, and I'm certainly not trying to volunteer obrien for more work. We are all busy and ObjC is hardly a priority for many. It may seem the slow way around, but you should submit your patches to the gcc folks first, and wait for them to be included, such that FreeBSD will need only configuration changes. I've done that, but have not yet received any feedback.

Update to UFS2 Superblock Format
On Tuesday Nov 26th I plan to make an update to the UFS2 superblock. It will not affect UFS1 filesystems so should be generally transparent to most -current users. For those using UFS2 filesystems, the new kernel will update the superblock to the new format the first time that your UFS2 filesystem is mounted read-write. Once updated it will not be able to be mounted by older kernels unless the `zapsb' program (see below) is run to revert it to the old format. The only really noticable problem arises when you are booting from a UFS2 root partition. Here, you must follow the following steps: 1) boot new kernel 2) mount -u / 3) install new bootstrap Once the new kernel has converted the filesystem format for the root partition, the old bootstrap will no longer recognize it, so if you do not have a new bootstrap, you will no longer be able to boot from it. Note that you cannot update to the new bootstrap until the filesystem has been converted as the new bootstrap will not recognize the old superblock format. Again, this change will only affect you if you are using a UFS2 filesystem as your root filesystem. The changes that I plan to apply can be viewed at: http://www.freebsd.org/~mckusick/UFS2_update.diffs The program `zapsb.c' that reverts a UFS2 filesystem to its previous state can be found at: http://www.freebsd.org/~mckusick/zapsb.c If this change is going to cause you undue hardship, please send me mail ([EMAIL PROTECTED]).

Making them signed just gives fsck a harder time to check the values. (as we saw this week). I have run a system with many of these made unsigned and it made no difference to the system.

Re: Update to UFS2 Superblock Format
Some of these fields could usefully be made unsigned others not (for example fs_pendingblocks and fs_pendinginodes). So just going through and making everything unsigned is not the right approach. I will make a pass through and consider changing some of these fields once the tree opens back up, but not at this point in time when we are trying to keep changes to a minimum and do not have time for extensive testing.

Re: Polled mode with device.hints
On Sun, 24 Nov 2002, Marc Fonvieille wrote: Hello, I'm currently updating some part of the Handbook for 5.X, and I need to know how to put some ports like sio0 or ppc0 in polled mode. I did a search and tried some syntax like 0 for the irq etc. but no way to put something in polled mode or to find an info on it. It's a lack of device.hints(5) and some devices manual pages :) For sio, polled mode is configured by not creating an irq resource. Leave the irq out of the device line in the config file for RELENG_4, and don''t configure a hint for the irq in 5.x. This might not actually work since PNP or ACPI etc may always create an irq resource. Bruce To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-current in the body of the message
Re: [Where] is OpenOffice 1.0.1_4 package available?
Hi, you can find it on http://projects.imp.ch/openoffice/.

I would compile it, but I would need to reorganize one of my disks and relabel for the 4 gig partition stated as required to compile it. If mozilla-1.1_1,1 is currently installed, does it need to be reinstalled with OpenOffice, or should I just go ahead and upgrade to mozilla-1.1_2,1?

Don't shoot me if I'm wrong though. -- Munish Chopra To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-current in the body of the message

Hope you will have more luck. As it says in the README, you need procfs to run it. This dependency will supposedly be removed in the (near?) future. -- Munish Chopra To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-current in the body of the message
