total hang when cu -l /dev/cuaa0
I have disabled the SIO on my ASUS P4SX board because I have a PCI modem card inserted. But the modem card or the sio on it doesn't seem to be detected by the kernel. Instead I see two sios (sio0 and sio1) which are flagged as possibly disabled (?) - why are they seen when I disabled them in the BIOS? When I run getty (or mgetty) on that port or when I do a cu -l /dev/cuaa0 the system freezes. Need help urgently to get this solved. I've been running a second box for months now only to have a working fax/modem . -- Chris Christoph P. U.

smallest piece of hardware that runs *BSD?
1990: In ten years, computers will just be bumps in cables. (Gordon Bell) Remember that quote? Now, we are not far from that. I'm thinking of some CPU with TP Ethernet and memory of size of an USB stick. Anyone knowing such or having experience? -- Christoph P. U.

spambouncer tags much freebsd list mail as spam
I installed the spambouncer.org procmail script and before I was switching the behaviour from SILENT to COMPLAIN I took a look at my spam.incoming folder and found a lot of messages from freebsd-bugs and freebsd-mobile in there. Both lists are not directed to folders prior to spambouncer coming into effect so they are trapped by spambouncer and I suspect that other freebsd lists would be trapped as well. Anyone experienced similar? -- Chris Christoph P. U.

off topic - disk crash
Today an important (no backup of course) 46 GB IBM Deskstar IDE disk crashed. It has a FreeBSD 4.8 on it with important data and programs. Yes, shame on me that I didn't care about doing backups on it but it has happened. I evend tend to expend the bucks to get it recovered but a little prediagnosis I would not to be left untried. The disk boots into FreeBSD but already at power on time the disk does seek retries or some recalibration noise. The question is what else can I do to recover the data. Put it in the icebox? Turn the computer upside down? Any ideas would be welcome. I thought of getting a second identical disk to exchange electronics only but since it partially functions it looks more like surface corruption, doesn't it? -- Chris Christoph P. U.
