 panic everytime on boot.
 
 It is not depend on umass. The panic would be happen when I
 didn't load umass.ko but ucom.ko + umodem.ko and plug USB modem
 (PHS phone).

I reproduced this panic, and tracked this down.
This is a kernel module dependency problem.

If this patch fix your problem, I'll commit this.

Equalizer

2004-03-10 Thread jhoder

i'm interested is learning more about freebsd's digital audio functionality, 
and in particular, i'm interested in developing a graphic audio equalizer which 
could be run from the command line, but allowing greater control than the 
stock mixer bass and treble functions.

would someone explain to me where, for example, the bass and treble controls 
get their frequency range values?  which source files (besides soundcard.h) 
need modification to accomplish something like this?  forgive my ignorance.  
i'm new to writing and compiling code but not to the audio world.  with some 
initial guidance, i'm sure i could make a contribution.


thanks in advance,

john

HDD problem research (was HDD questions)

2004-03-10 Thread Roman Kurakin
Does any body have Segate drive ST380021A working with FreeBSD?
Does any body have problems with it running 5.2-5.current or other 
versions of FreeBSD?

Hi,

   I have some problems with my HDD (ST380021A). The problem was 
checked on 5.2, 5.2.1, and some
5.Current (cvsuped about week or two).

   At first I got this problem while system installation. I get trap 
and message from ata after I start a commit:
FAILURE READ_DMA status=51 READY, DSC, ERROR error=10 
NID_NOT_FOUND LBA=245529601


If I read the above modelnumber correctly it is a 80G disk..

There is only ~16000 sectors on such a disk, so you cant expect 
to read sector 245529601 as its not there :) 


I know that, and this is the problem. I am trying to read 41929650, 
but system thinks this is 245529601.
This sector is near 20G mark, so I tried to read it from 40G disk, 
which I use to run fbsd. All is fine.

Now why sysinstall tries to do that is beyond me, but could be a 
problem with the geometry (it seems to always get it wrong these days). 


This is not a problem of sysinstall at all. As I wrote, it is enougth 
to try to read one sector. So this problem
somewhere between read call and ata driver. This area wasn't in focus 
of my interest before, so I don't
know where to go.

Also, I tryied to read some sectors back and forward, and found out 
that value of LBA changes nolinear.
Lower byte is linear only on interval of 63 values, so I gues this is 
a sector value. And  it seems that LBA value
not LBA value at all :-(

This is all I have now. Any ideas, comments?

Best regards,
   Roman Kurakin

Re: Fw: 5.2 / 5.2.1 Highpoint 374 RAID 5 driver support

2004-03-10 Thread Steven Hartland
Thanks for that there is basic support but this doesn't seem to detect
a RAID 5 array :( The 5.1 Highpoint driver results in a da device which
works correctly but I would really like to get back on to 5.2 as it fixes
a number of issues I've encountered with 5.1.

Regards
Steve 

- Original Message - 
From: Robert Eckardt [EMAIL PROTECTED]

 Hi Steve,
 
 there should be basic support in the ATA-driver. (For the 372 there is.)
 
 However, it does not support initial synchronization of two disks and
 the handling in case of an error is very limited.
 You either have to start using an already existing array or resync using
 some BIOS tool. Later, the driver does not care whether the content of
 the RAID is identical or not.

Subversion follow-up

2004-03-10 Thread Craig Boston
Unless somebody chimes in and just really wants me to stick this out to the
bitter end, I'm about to kill my attempted import of the FreeBSD src/
repository into a test Subversion instance.

The process has just passed the 1 month mark:

USER  PID %CPU %MEM   VSZ   RSS  TT  STAT STARTEDTIME COMMAND
craig   19802 80.5  2.1 15600 10848  pv  RN+   9Feb04 33187:46.67 python ./cvs2svn.py

and is still processing commits from mid-2001.  Each commit has gotten
progressively slower.  As my other experiment (importing periodic snapshots
from certain branches) has been working beautifully, I'm certain at this point
that it's not Subversion itself, but rather the cvs2svn script that is slowing
down.  I may try again if I hear that the script has been improved in the
future.  I'm using a barely pre-1.0 version of it that was checked out of the
development branch, so I'm reasonably sure not much has changed between it
and the 1.0 released one.

cvsd problems

2004-03-10 Thread db
Hi all

I want to run a jailed cvs server, where users only have write access to
their own projects. So this is what I have done:
Jaildir: /home/cvs
portinstall cvsd
mv /usr/local/etc/rc.d/cvsd.sh.sample /usr/local/etc/rc.d/cvsd.sh
chmod 770 /usr/local/etc/rc.d/cvsd.sh

Creating a new user/project:
cvsd-passwd /home/cvs/repos username
Add the user to /home/cvs/(master.)passwd

Intel i8xx watchdog driver

2004-03-10 Thread Wm. Daryl Hawkins

I've written a driver and userland daemon for the Intel i8xx TCO watchdog timer.  This 
is my first driver and it's only seen limited testing, so proceed with caution!  I've 
tested it with 4.9 and 5.2.1 on a Supermicro P4SGE motherboard and would be grateful 
for any suggestions, comments, bug reports, or complaints!  :)  If there is sufficient 
interest (and once I've gotten some comment on the structure and inner workings of 
this driver), I'd also like to write a driver for the AMD-8000 series chipset.  You 
can get the driver at: http://freebsd.tamu.edu/wdog/

There was a neat paper at BSDCon 2003 discussing running usermode FreeBSD
on Linux, and it talked about what would be necessary to make usermode
FreeBSD run on FreeBSD.  You can find the paper off the USENIX web site,
or perhaps via Google.  I think it was a relatively small set of changes.

You could probably shove a graphic equalizer into the kernel but it would be 
fairly complex to debug, and you can only use integer math :)

You're probably better off modifying one of the audio multiplexer daemons - I 
know artsd at least can do plugins already.

NIC-independent watchdog timeout on 5.2.1-R

2004-03-10 Thread Alan Gerber
I'm gonna commit the cardinal sin and cross-post this to -hackers since I
haven't had any luck getting an answer out of -questions.   ;-)

I hope someone here's at least partly seen this before!

--
Alan Gerber



Hey all,

I'm trying to put 5.2.1-Release on my desktop at home, and I'm experiencing a
couple of errors that have me confused.  First, I get a number of
module_register: module ???/??? already exists!\nModule ???/??? failed to
register: 17 errors on startup (I'm including the dmesg output which includes
these errors), and I also get a watchdog timeout for all of the 4 different
network cards I've used in the machine.  The specific watchdog message isn't
included in the dmesg text, but it's none to complicated: rl0: watchdog
timeout and such.  The NICS that I've used are:

2x Linksys LNE100TX v4 (dc driver)
1x Generic Belkin card (rl driver)
1x Intel Pro/100 (fxp driver)

My guess is that these two problems are probably related, but since I've no
idea how to resolve the first problem, I started troubleshooting the second:
here's what I've found so far:

I've read enough of the man pages to know that this is supposedly caused by
the driver not getting a response that a packet was put on the wire
successfully.  But I am certain that the cards are good (I've pulled all but
the 1st Linksys out of working machines to test this), and the cabling and
connections are all good, too.  I've used the same cards successfully in WinXP
with no problems whatsoever on the same machine.

I am experiencing this error with the install floppies, install CD, liveCD,
and even after installation via CD with the generic kernel.

Disabling ACPI has had no effect in this case.

I've pulled all other cards (save my video card [GeForce FX5600]) out of the
machine and tried each of the above cards, but still no luck.

The motherboard for the machine in question is an Asus A7A266, running BIOS
revision 1011.  I'm attaching the verbose ACPI-enabled dmesg output from the
liveCD in case it helps.

At this point I don't know what to do.  I've checked the mail archives, FAQ,
bsdforums.org, etc, and I haven't found any situations that seem to apply for
me.  I'm guessing that it is something about my specific hardware combination
or possibly a BIOS setting, but I thought I'd check here to see if anyone had
any thoughts on either a solution or a workaround.

I'd appreciate any help that can be given on this situation, because I'd love
to move away from running WinXP on my desktop! ;-)

or possibly a BIOS setting, but I thought I'd check here to see if anyone had
any thoughts on either a solution or a workaround.

I'd appreciate any help that can be given on this situation, because I'd love
to move away from running WinXP on my desktop! ;-)

Re: Intel i8xx watchdog driver

2004-03-10 Thread Mike Tancsa

Wow, this is great!  I tried it out on a few RELENG_4 boxes and it
works as expected 

wdog0 on motherboard
isab0: Found Intel 82801DB watchdog device

Are there any plans to incorporate this into the 5.x and 4.x source
tree ?   This would be useful to a lot of people.

I've written a driver and userland daemon for the Intel i8xx TCO watchdog timer.  
This is my first driver and it's only seen limited testing, so proceed with caution!  
I've tested it with 4.9 and 5.2.1 on a Supermicro P4SGE motherboard and would be 
grateful for any suggestions, comments, bug reports, or complaints!  :)  If there is 
sufficient interest (and once I've gotten some comment on the structure and inner 
workings of this driver), I'd also like to write a driver for the AMD-8000 series 
chipset.  You can get the driver at: http://freebsd.tamu.edu/wdog/

Re: usermode linux on BSD?

 There was a neat paper at BSDCon 2003 discussing running usermode FreeBSD
 on Linux, and it talked about what would be necessary to make usermode
 FreeBSD run on FreeBSD.  You can find the paper off the USENIX web site,
 or perhaps via Google.  I think it was a relatively small set of changes.

I think this is it -
http://www.usenix.org/publications/library/proceedings/bsdcon03/tech/eiraku/eiraku_html/

They used NetBSD, and modified it's ptrace() in a pretty minor fashion.
They also hacked out the BIOS calls from a FreeBSD 4.7 to make it easier to 
run (they don't have a VM8086 emulator :)

This is some pretty neat stuff!
