XY res
Hello guys! I have an ATI All In Wonder 128 Pro in my FreeBSD 4.7 box. It works perfectly, but it is very difficult to me to be working with a display with resolution 1280x1024. In the old X11 ver 3.xx it was easy to change the display resolution by pressing ctrl-alt-Gray+, but now it does not work anymore. How can I reduce my display resolution? Thanks in advance. Eduardo.

ldconfig Segmentation fault
Hi, I've done a network installation using the floppies and ftp access through http proxy (the only way to access the net or me), and I have a big problem. I saw, in the installation fase, a lot of Segmentation fault, core dump for ldconfig, after each package installation, but I didn't take them into account, because I knew that I can run ldconfig any time. But after rebooting my station, The ldconfig still gives Segmentation fault. It is the right one, /sbin/ldconfig, not the linux's one (I don't have linux_compat enable yet). Is there any way to repair this installation, or I need to reinstall all? thanks for any help. -- __V__ Ciprian Badescu A L C A T E L Mobile Networks Division R&D Center Phone: +40 56 303100 (ext. 5786) Fax: +40 56 295386 Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Wed, 19 Feb 2003, Hermanto wrote: > Date: Wed, 19 Feb 2003 13:41:06 + > From: Hermanto <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: mplayer with gui > > i want to install mplayer with gui enable. how do i? > does pkg_add has an option for that? > > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] > with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message > To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message

Same BIOS for FreeBSD and Windows?
One of my boxes are using a mb with a VIA PLE133T chipset. In the BIOS I have ACPI enabled and the box is set to wake up at 06:00 in the morning. I am using a disk drawer to easily change operating systems. When I am using a disk with Windows 2000 or Linux and turn the box off at night, it will turn back on at 06:00 as expected. When using the disk with R4.7p4 and doing a shutdown -p the box will not turn itself on the next morning! I realize that the ACPI functions are not fully implemented yet, but I fail to see how it should influence a cold boot. Any ideas? What I am attempting is to have the box turn on, do its thing and turn itself off until the next morning.

I've recently heard of a program called `arson' for kde. It's supposedly pretty good, but I haven't tried it yet. If you use `cdrecord' you can just give it a list of files to burn. Or you can use `mkisofs' to create an iso image of a directory tree and then just write the image with `cdrecord'. Oh, I just realised that you wanted to duplicate CDs. Well I suppose there's a tool to rip a CD to an iso image; then you can just write it with `cdrecord' as per normal. cheers sam To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message

Gd 2.0.11 can't find png headers
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 I'm trying to compile gd 2.0.11 but it can't seem to find the headers for PNG. This is strange since it finds the headers for JPEG, FreeType and XPM without any problem and they're all in the same place. I've tried different varations of --with-png=DIR none seem to allow it find the PNG headers. I've done many searches on google and google groups but none seem to offer any advice for this problem. I have png-1.2.5_1 installed on my FreeBSD 5.0 system. Thanks for the help.

When you set firewall_type="/etc/ipfw.rules" in your rc.conf, only the following commands are run by rc.firewall: ipfw -f flush ipfw /etc/ipfw.rules That's all. If you want the rules to have similar behavior to some of the rules listed for open/closed/client/simple, you'll have to copy the appropriate rules from rc.firewall into your /etc/ipfw.rules file.

IPFW: rc.firewall script doesn't load when loading rules from a file
I'm using FBSD 4.7 and have compiled ipfw into the kernel.

I thought I could let rc.firewall take care of housekeeping ( flush and loopback rules ) before moving on to the the custom rules in ipfw.rules. Am I missing something here or is it normal to bypass rc.firewall altogether and set up a rules file with everything needed in there?

The question is, why would you want to do this? Two reasons I can think of - which one fits you...? 1. To keep a record of all transactions you've ever performed on your mailbox. 2. To permit multiple "offline" operations on your mailbox which get sync'ed back to the main one whenever you get the opportunity. In the first case you might be better off investigating a flexible mail client (maybe mh, if you can stand it, or some derivative thereof) and hacking the functionality yourself. In the second case, you're probably better off looking for a mail client that supports some sensible kind of offline operation.

Configuring sendmail to deliver per sender
Hi all. How do I get sendmail to forward off mail coming from a particular sender to a particular email address? So regardless of who it's addressed TO, I want it to forward mail to a different mailbox or to /dev/null depending on the address. So say I get an email going from "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" going to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]", I want that email to go to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" instead, but all other mail labled for user1 I want it to deliver normally. The other situation would be mail coming into from "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" going to any user on my network. I want to automatically forward that mail into /dev/null and make it go bye bye. How do I go about doing that? Thanks. If I can't do that, I'll take the first item instead. I've got a workaround for the second if it can't be done. But I definately need to do the first one.

Do people normally > just wait until the ports collection is updated? The ports collection is updated generally the same day the official release is made (this is true for both KDE and GNOME, and many many other applications, less true for others. In a very broad generalisation, the bigger and more visible the project, the sooner the ports get updated.) KDE 3.1, for example, has been in the ports for a few weeks now. You have no need to compile from sources to keep current, what you need to do is: a: read the handbook and learn about cvsup and the ports collection b: install sysutils/portupgrade, read it's man pages thoroughly, and use it to keep your system up to date. > 2) Does anyone know why gnomepim wouldn't install?

You can circumvent this by mounting at a pathname that doesn't include space or tabs characters and symlink to it, i.e. with this in your fstab: /dev/ad0s3e /home/me/my.docs msdos rw,noauto 2 2 You can always run: # mount /home/me/my.docs and then symlink "/home/me/My Documents" to /home/me/my.docs.

Basic Ports Question, KDE, Korganizer
Hello - I basically run xwindows so I can have a browser and a PIM program. I recently installed fbsd 4.7 from the mini-install CD. I used sysinstall to set up KDE and everything went perfectly. The version of korganizer in ports is 3.0.x something. But it looks ugly and I would like to upgrade to the latest version. I download the source and tried to compile, but it couldn't find any Qt headers or normal stuff like that. So then I tried to install gnomepim, which installed a bunch of stuff but the install of gnomevfs (a dependency of gnomepim) didn't work for some reason which I could specify in greater detail if necessary. So my questions are these: 1) How can I install kdepim/korganizer from ports originally, but then continue to compile from source to keep current? Do people normally just wait until the ports collection is updated? 2) Does anyone know why gnomepim wouldn't install? This is the error I am getting: ===> Extracting for gnomevfs-1.0.5_4 >> Checksum mismatch for gnome/gnome-vfs-1.0.5.tar.bz2. Make sure the Makefile and distinfo file (/usr/ports/devel/gnomevfs/distinfo) are up to date.

FreeBSD Media Player equivalent...
I've finally decided to run FreeBSD as my primary workstation environment. Previously I have only used it as a server platform. I've managed to replace most of the desktop utilities I need, but I need a good replacement for Windows Media Player. I'm looking for opinions here I'd like an application that works well as a stream player (i.e. supports playing mp3/mpeg/avi/etc from a web site via mozilla) as well as playing dvd/vcd/divx/dvd/etc from the localhost. I'm also looking for an application that has the concept of easy to install/manage codecs. I'd like to avoid having to --enable via configure and re-compile each time I need a new codec. The GUI need not be pretty, but should not be kludgy, and adware would be a big minus. If the application supported network updates of both the player and the codec w/o adware, I'd even be willing to throw some money towards a yearly subscription.

As to the performance aspect, if you're planning on running complex PHP scripts - especially as CGIs - *especially* a system that says this in its requirements: PHP4 must be installed on the webserver with access to a SQL database. (by which it means mysql, postgres, oracle, informix or ms-sql) then I very much doubt that the http server is going to become a performance bottleneck. As to security: since many SSL implementations have their roots in a small number of libraries, you may find that a vulnerability with one is a vulnerability with several platforms. (This isn't the case with stuff out of the DJB stable, however, 'cause he has a long history of not trusting anything written by others, and reimplementing it all himself from scratch.)

Re: upgrade of Mailman from ports fails: unable to set GID
I just portupgraded an instance of Mailman from 2.1b4 to 2.1.1 and, while I was able to set the GID without a problem (sendmail MTA), I had this response to both /usr/local/etc/rc.d/mailman.sh start and mailmanctl: eris# ./mailmanctl -s start Site list is missing: mailman I compared the files in /usr/local/mailman/bin with another machine that's running 2.1b4 and I didn't find anything startlingly different --even the Defaults.py and mm_cfg.py files were the same. I ftp'd the mailmanctl file from the 2.1b4 server to the server with 2.1.1 installed, ran the mailman.sh start script and everything (appears, so far) to be working fine. Just to verify that it wasn't a portupgrade issue, I pkg_delete'd mailman and built a fresh install; I got the same error on starting mailmanctl with the file from 2.1.1. Looks like 2.1.1 has some issues, has anyone gotten it to run out-of-the-box from ports??

Check that it will reverse map, and if no other way if available maybe put an entry for the host in /etc/hosts. This is a common problem with sshd, so I'm just guessing that telnetd might behave the save? In any case, if nothing else is in the way, you might consider using ssh instead of telnet.

About the best you can do is use ifconfig(8) to set the MAC address at the same time as you configure the interface: ifconfig rl0 ether 00:e0:29:85:49:b6 ifconfig rl1 ether 00:e0:29:85:49:d0 which will cause the MAC address to stick with the interface number, rather than the actual card. That will work if you just keep the two cards as you've shown here, but if you add a new card that happens to end up as rl0 then you'll probably end up with a mess. As far as I know, there's no way of wiring down interface numbers to PCI bus slots, analogously to the way you can wire down SCSI devices by bus, target and LUN --- see the section on 'SCSI DEVICE CONFIGURATION' in LINT. You'ld probably have to go a bit linux-ish and have, say, eth0 as the generic name for an ethernet interface independant of the actual chipset on the NIC in order to make the most sense of that sort of wiring-down idea.

slow telnet login over (lan and wan)
hello im running FreeBSD 4.7 Release on amd athlon 1.6ghz with 512mb of ram. This machine has a very light cpu load. it mostly sits there idle and handles email for a small office. for some reason however, telnet logins are very slow over the sdsl 512/512 connection as well as the 100mbps lan. When I try to telnet to that box, i make an immediate connection but don't get a login prompt for almost 30-40 seconds. Its not a major problem. Just very annoying. Does anyone have a clue about how to resolve this problem. any hints would help. __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

The information I needed was in the mergemaster(8) man page. But it makes sense that you'd want a fresh temproot for each machine you install on; otherwise, the previous run will delete files you need to install on the next machine...

You'll need to load the pcm module or compile it into your kernel. The ethernet card I'm not sure about, though; I don't know which driver is supposed to handle that one.

How are you testing the speed? Make sure to use more than one program (e.g., not just ftpd) so you can tell whether it's a networking issue or just an application bottleneck.

spaces in fstab
Could anyone tell me how to put spaces in fstab for mount points or device names? I am trying to use mount_smbfs to mount an SMB share with spaces in the name. However, I am sure this same difficulty would apply if my mount point contained spaces, such as /home/me/My\ Documents. I have tried various combinations of \040, escaping, and quoting, with no luck so far.

RE: tripwire (re-re-post)
Yes and no - on the fresh install of bsd, with a new(er/ est) ports package, I got past the 'siggen missing' error and tripwire is working OK. On the original machine, i'm still getting that particular error, even with the updated ports. I think I will need to CVSup that machine and try again. Our firewall does not allow port 5999 in or out though, so I need to work on that first. -Original Message- From: David Donaldson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, February 17, 2003 04:54 PM To: benjamin everist Subject: RE: tripwire (re-re-post) Did you get your tripwire working?
