BTW, the ancient GNU tar (1.11.2) FreeBSD has bundled with the system
happens to have a bug that makes it inconvenient with modern tapes.
The tape length (option -L) is stored in a signed integer; a DAT DDS-2
is already too big for that.
I would recommend to upgrade to the new 1.13, which, together with a
brand new set of bugs, introduces the TARLONG type to store such
informations as tape length.

ALS4000
Hi All, (sorry for the xpost) Since I haven't had any help with getting my Intel 82801BA (ICH2) sound to work properly (plays 20% too fast) I went out and bought an ASound Express 32bit PnP sound card (based on the ALS4000 chipset) and dropped that in. I added device sbc and device pcm to my kernel conf. I also upgraded my kernel to 4.4-RELEASE However after getting it hooked up it has TERRIBLE hissing and clipping, even with all levels gain etc turned down. I tried with/without the CD line in cable and even moved slots to no avail. At least it plays at the right speed, though!! cat /dev/sndstat FreeBSD Audio Driver (newpcm) Nov 21 2001 10:02:21 Installed devices: pcm0: Avance Logic ALS4000 at io 0xdc00 irq 11 (1p/1r/0v channels duplex) Can anyone help??

You can also switch to serial via /boot/loader.rc. I have -h and -D in /boot.config so boot1 is using a serial. These parameters doesn't harm with /boot/loader and /boot/loader inherits them just fine. What's the right way to use loader. Simply use it. boot1 is able to directly load the kernel instead of /boot/loader just as in old 2.x days but only /boot/loader is able for increased magic. See boot(8) for a full description of the booting process. -- B.Walter COSMO-Project http://www.cosmo-project.de [EMAIL PROTECTED] Usergroup [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-hackers in the body of the message

Re: dummynet pipe show problem
Hi,
I'm still running into lots of problems with this on 4.3. Is it neccessary
to introduce a delay in the pipe ? Would a delay of zero work ?
Has this been fixed in 4.4 ?

Hi,
I have enclosed a short piece of code that seems to

I doubt that is relevant. To reproduce the problem,
compile and run the enclosed code in one window.
In another window su to root and run ping -s 1024 -f 127.0.42.1.
As you will see, the code reports the gowing byte count as one

back you should see the state I'm talking about. The flood ping stream
It _might_ be a locking problem due to the frequent
reconfigurations of the pipe -- i think there was some
fix of this kind related to ipfw commands between 4.3 and 4.4.
I will see if i can reproduce the problem locally (but i have
4.4).
You are using dummynet in a very peculiar way:
more precisely, your pipe does not introduce any delay,
and this excludes the scheduler which is part of dummynet.
Also you are using the same pipe for icmp requests
and replies, which are generated within the kernel, so
the behaviour should be quite deterministic in this
respect.

sysctls for hardware monitoring?
In looking over the various options for monitoring the health of the hardware, I notice that it's pretty much a mess. All the software in question runs privileged and grovels through memory in some way. Linux uses a device driver that's a directory full of files holding sensor information. That doesn't seem to be the right direction for FBSD, though. An option that enabled a set of sysctls to collect the information seemed to be more approrpiate. Comments? Suggestions?
