The sound is actually also delayed a bit upon PCI bus accesses (which could not happen if the audio signal was simply influenced by induction, also, this would happen when using Windows, too). It may be an interrupt problem or something else (some sort of bus contention?). Perhaps FreeBSD uses the same interrupts for both cards (remember one is a PCI card and the other one is an ISA card) and Windows doesn't.

Changing font sizes in X
Yes, I am a newbie... to FreeBSD not to computers. I cut my teeth on Apple Basic 20 years ago; learned DOS 15 years ago, and was dragged kicking and screaming into the Gui world of Windows. But I am a user, not a hacker. In an attempt to cleanse my system of anything MS, I decided to try a boxed set of FreeBSD from my near-by computer mega-store. Actually it took me nearly a year to work up the courage to start again at the bottom of the learning curve. I must say, that installing FreeBSD is not a very user friendly activity. After 3 failed attempts I finally discovered how to configure X to actually run. I thought this stuff was supposed to be rock solid. I am very familiar with the blue screen of death, but at least it has instructions and the option to shut down. I found myself staring at a white/black herring-bone back ground with a giant X starimg me in the face. I could move the X with my mouse, but nothing else would happen. After staring at this black X for over 40 minutes, and against all caution from the instruction manual, I hit the "off" key on my box. My problem seemed to be from my desire to have an 800 X 600 display which I can read, even without my glasses, instead of the 1280 X 1024 my monitor is capable of displaying. With the higher resolution display, I was able to launch an X server, and loaded up Gnome with enlightenment. Now I have these itty-bitty little menus and icons which I can only read by tilting my head back and looking through the bottom of my bi-focals. I am an old man, and the neck doesn't flex like it did when I only had to read a 40 column monochrome screen. How can I enlarge my fonts/menus/icons without giving up the high resolution needed for all the pictures of the grand-kids? eg [EMAIL PROTECTED] (ironic isn't it?) ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Modifying FreeBSD base?
Hello, I'd like to modify the FreeBSD "base" (e.g. make changes to configuration files) - is there a way to do this without make world and creating my own distribution (the changes are simple enough I'd like to be able to role them into a modified base for now). It seemd like I could do the following: 1. cat base.?? > /tmp/filename.tar.gz 2. cd /tmp; mkdir base; tar -C base -xpzf ../base.tar.gz 3. Edit which ever files, and recreate a new base.tar.gz 4. use split(1) to split the tar.gz file up again 5. Recreate the CHECKSUM.MD5 file with lines for each base.?? file of the form: MD5 (base.aa) = md5_of_file Unfortunately the install complains about not being able to read the base distributions (doing an FTP install). What am I missing? Somewhere there's something else which appears to be telling the install it should expect a certain number of split base.?? files (I end up with a larger number of these, and can not seem to get split to let me create the same number as originally existed in).

Re: Booting using serial console
The serial ports are ok. However, in checking that out I discovered that it will boot from the serial console if there is also a keyboard plugged in (no monitor). So then I put the monitor on and unplugged the keyboard. The boot sequence shows: "keyboard error" during the initial BIOS boot. Then, when the scsi devices are probed, I get to resume, to setup It looks like BIOS won't let me boot unattended without a keyboard. With the keyboard, it comes up ok on the serial port. Anyone know of a way around this?

Booting using serial console
Well, nothing like feeling like a blind person... I'm trying to boot / install 4.5 on a headless system. I've made the serial console boot floppies, but get no response when I try to use them. I've got a vt220 plugged into com1; I know the cable is good because I plugged it into com1 on a windoze box and could read and write the vt220 using hyperterminal. The vt220 is set to 9600 baud (it's max rate is 19200) The boot floppies look like this: boot loader loader.rc boot.config kernel.gz boot.config looks like: /boot/loader -h When the machine tries to boot, how does it determine the baud rate to use on the com1 port, assuming it is properly listening there? I'm guessing the baud rates of the machine and the terminal are mismatched. I've tried typing on the keyboard as it is attempting to boot, but still get no response. I get two beeps after about 8 seconds or so after the floppy starts reading. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

No, I've only used a setup that had both PS/2 and USB keyboards. Just reading the kbdcontrol man page, the other thing you could try is the -K option to detach the keyboard. e.g: device "Keyboard" devname "ukbd0" attach "kbdcontrol -k /dev/kbd0 < /dev/ttyv0" detach "kbdcontrol -K < /dev/ttyv0" (or experiment with kbdcontrol -K from ssh) BTW, what are the last few lines of `dmesg' after the keyboard stops working?

Mozilla 1.3 port problem - general question about bug report
Hello, this is the first time I am writing here, I hope I'm not posting on the wrong mailing list... I am using FreeBSD for only 2 weeks and am not yet familiar with the opensource world, so please mind my stupid questions ^^ I have a portudate problem on mozilla-1.3.1,2 after I updated my ports by cvs : I can't get it to recognize all the dependencies and it throws me this error after checking a bunch of things that are marked as ok " *** Your version of pkg-config is too old. You need version 0.9.0 or newer. *** See http://www.freedesktop.org/software/pkgconfig configure: error: Library requirements (xft) not met; consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if your libraries are in a nonstandard prefix so pkg-config can find them. ===> Script "configure" failed unexpectedly. Please report the problem to [EMAIL PROTECTED] [maintainer] and attach the "/usr/ports/www/mozilla/work/mozilla/config.log" including the output of the failure of your make command. Also, it might be a good idea to provide an overview of all packages installed on your system (e.g. an `ls /var/db/pkg`). *** Error code 1 " I actualy have kgconfig 0.15.0, which is the latest version and I don't really understand the "Library requirements (xft)" stuff, but when I check if all the dependencies that should be needed by the port are in my port database it seems to be ok...(I checked the dependency list on the freebsd.org/ports site) So, as you can read in the error message, it tells me to send a report to the maintainer of the port to report the problem...My question is : should I do it ? I mean, in this kind of cases is it the proper way to report the problem ? What the difference between reporting by mail to the maintener and submitting a bug report about the port ? Which one is the best ? And will I burn in hell if do a bug report or mail the maintainer and it finaly appears to be a miss I did in the install of my system ?

RE: very slow NIC
This sounds like an auto-sense problem. If you're hooked up to a hub, 10 half is the best you'll get. If it's a switch, it may be setting itself full-duplex. If its not a managed switch (you can't tell it what the ports should set themselves to), you can try changing the settings on the card (man ifconfig), but more than likely you're stuck. However, its odd its 1 direction... You may just have a bad cable.

tar or gnutar
wondering if the tar packaged with base freebsd is the same as gnutar.. and possibly issues with versions. the reason is I have a tarball created on a linux box with the gnutar that was packaged with it, yet tar tvf ... tells me it doesn't look like a tar archive, and quits... yuck. any advice? -- David Bear phone: 480-965-8257 fax:480-965-9189 College of Public Programs/ASU Wilson Hall 232 Tempe, AZ 85287-0803 "Beware the IP portfolio, everyone will be suspect of trespassing" ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
very slow NIC
I have an ethernet card that just doesn't seem to be performing well in both directions (in and out)when I access this NIC from another machine on the LAN, file transfer is extremely fast, but when I use this machine to access another machine on the LAN, I can barely get 10 kb/sec out of it! Anyway dmesg.boot reports the card as: rl0: rev 0x10 int a irq 9 on pci0.13.0 rl0: Ethernet address: 00:20:18:88:96:47 rl0: autoneg complete, link status good (half-duplex, 10Mbps) So, is full-duplexing not turned on or something?

Gcc has many warning options and quite a few would be classified as not
applicable for general use (but might be useful to someone carrying on a
particular investigation). This particular one is not, to my knowledge,
included in any of the catchalls such as -Wall or -W.

If that truly is the case, then MPD should work fine since it can be both a client and a server. This is why, for most offices, I recommend using Snapgear.com products. They're great for offices using T3 or less, have all the firewalling you want and no-per-user-license-fee ipsec and pptp support (although # of tunnels are limited, but that's more a hardware-limitation thing). And they're cheap as heck. If you're paid anything decent, the time it'll take you to get this figured out will have paid for a Snapgear box twice over. :) Good luck!

Now, whenever the PCI bus is accessed while the soundcard plays something (e.g. by moving windows around or playing a movie), I can actually *hear* the bus accesses in my loudspeakers (very short and frequent pauses and clicking noises - several per second, which sounds rather strange). It was the same (but the noises where extremely rare) when my MGA 200 was still working, but with the PCI card, it is really horrible. When using Win98, my system behaves normally (no strange noises can be heard on graphics access). I figure this being a driver problem. What can I do about that? Are there any parameters I may have forgotten to set? Had the same type of problem when I initially tried BeOS and FreeBSD after living in the Win world. Whenever I moved the mouse cursor the sound card emitted a noise like a motorboat - even increased in frequency as the cursor accelerated! I think it's likely the sound card is picking up changes in electrical field from the old video card. Separate the two within the case as much as possible and see if that helps - when I did it here, it put the "motorboat" in permanent drydock. :) Jud ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

NAT Question
Hi all, I'm trying to setup a BSD box to act as a NAT gateway between private net and public Internet. My requirements is to map the src and destination of the packet according to a set of rules. The BSD box has two public IP addresses. Depending on which interface the packet arrives on it will get routed to a different private destination address. I'm using ipnat with the following mapping on the NAT box. The Nat box has only 1 interface xl0 the ip addresses of this interface are: public 129.197,244.6/24,129.197.244.7/24, 129.197.244.8/24 private 10.77.1.2/24, 10.77.2.2/24 The servers on the private lan are 10.77.1.1/24 and 10.77.2.1/24 on two different subnets. to List of active MAP/Redirect filters: map xl0 129.197.244.7/32 -> 10.77.1.1/32 map xl0 129.197.244.8/32 -> 10.77.2.1/32 map xl0 10.77.1.1/32 -> 129.197.244.7/32 map xl0 10.77.2.1/32 -> 129.197.244.8/32 However I'm not getting the desired results. >From a computer with ip address of 129.197.244.2 I ping 129.197.244.8. I expect the >icmp packet to reach the BSDNAT box and get translated to the 10.77.2.1 address and >forwarded with src address of 10.77.2.2 out of xl0 to the particular server. Then >the server would reply back to 10.77.2.2 and it would get translated back to >129.197.244.2 with a source address of 129.197.244.8. But this is not happening. If the source of the Ping is a BSD box, the reply comes back as if I was routed to the destination server, but in reality its not being routed since the destination server doesn't see the packet for example: ping from Freebsd box Pinging 129.197.244.8 with 32 bytes of data: Reply from 10.77.2.1: bytes=32 time<10ms TTL=255 But 10.77.2.1 doesn't really see the ping packets. (verified using tcpdump and the delay metric which remains the same whether I ping 129.197.244.6) and ping from a windows box doesn't even get translated and times out. So In short I need someone to tell me the correct synthax to setup the mapping so that I can map any src and dst IP address into any other Src and dst address and retain the return path as well. thanks for your thoughts in advance, ~koroush ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

The handbook goes over this in great detail: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/sound-setup.html Beyond that, as long as your video driver is working OK, you should be able to use mplayer just fine. Please note the differences between 4.x and 5.x in setting up sound devices. Be sure you are reading the correct instructions for setting it up in 4.x (more steps). In addition you'll probably need to add: options USER_LDT to your kernel. (unless you're running current, or have done it already.) Before compiling mplayer you should read the makefile to check out the various options. (You won't get a gui by default...) You should also go over the documentation at http://www.MPlayerHQ.hu/homepage/design6/news.html. (The links are currently down, though... You probably won't need them to install, just make sure you change the ~/.mplayer/config file to reflect the gui, 'skin,' you want to use.) Best of luck, Clayton PS. you'll need to get the codecs too, if you haven't already. I have gotten them from the mplayer site before, though I see they exist in ports too.

I want Node A to also have an IP address on a virtual interface this is part of LAN2. I was trying out the built in stuff and I got it to work in the transport mode but I do not think that's what I need. What is a difference between the tunnel mode and the transport mode and how do I set up the build in stuff to work in the tunnel mode? Any help with any of the questions will be greatly appreciated.

PostScript UTF-8 fonts?
I do have a PostScript capable printer (Lexmark E310) and printing to it via lpr works fine. However, I do have the requirement to print Japanese. When the printer is being used from a Windows machine, this works fine. I guess the necessary fonts are being included in the print job itself. After lts of searching and trying etc. I finally also found a way to print from Mozilla on FreeBSD and get Japanese output. print from mozilla to postscript -> run the postscript data through ghostscript to the pswrite device -> send the output from ghostscript to the printer However, this only works when a webpage is encoded in Shift-JIS (possible EUC), if it is encoded in the UTF-8 charset, the Japanese characters again all print as squares, even though they are fine on the screen. I do have installed various CJK (ChineseJapaneseKorean 2-byte) fonts from the ports collection (FBSD v4.7). My guess is, that I need to get a complete UTF-8 font collection which includes the Japanese characters, installed for ghostscript. But I can not find anything. What can be found on the web lacks Japanese characters. - First of all, am I on the right way with installing fonts and pushing the whole stuff through ghostscript or was this solution working by mere luck and I should use a completely different approach? - If my approach is fine, where can a free complete UTF-8 font for ghostscript be found? - I'm also playing with the thought of buying a okidata C5300n color LED printer, which has PS level 3 support and quite a number of fonts installed by default (financing it is still a barrier, however). Does anybody have any experience with printing Japanese from FreeBSD on this printer (_NOT_ one bought in Japan, as the models sold in Japan usually do have a harddisk with the necessary fonts preinstalled)?

Datafab umass device - quirks
Hi all,
Got myself a Datafab KCCF-USBG CompactFlash based usb mass storage
device. Initially the device did not work with FreeBSD (4.8-Stable).
usbdevs -v reports:
... Mass Storage(0xa400), USB(0x07c4), rev 1.13
(Does this mean 'USB' is what appears in the manufacturers field and 'Mass
Storage' appears in the product field? Yes, this is a /cheap/ product..)
To fix the problem I had to:
1. Add 'kern.cam.da.no_6_byte=1' to /etc/sysctl.conf
2. Add the following to /sys/dev/usb/usbdevs.h:
#define USB_VENDOR_DATAFAB 0x7c4
#define USB_PRODUCT_DATAFAB 0xa400
3. Patch /sys/dev/usb/umass.c as follows:
--- umass.c.origSun May 4 21:40:06 2003
+++ /sys/dev/usb/umass.cMon Jun 9 19:56:43 2003

The question is how do I get (1) into /sys/cam/scsi/scsi_da.c so that it
applies to this device only? I'm not sure I understand the da_quirk_table.
Another question, is how to I get this bug (?) fix committed into -STABLE?
One more thing ... seems like the FreeBSD code is derived from
NetBSD sources. Looking at the HEAD branch of FreeBSD and NetBSD, it
looks like the device is handled correctly by the NetBSD code.

If I run kbdcontrol -k /dev/kbd0 < /dev/ttyv0 while it's 'locked up' I get: kbdcontrol: cannot open /dev/kbd0: Device busy So maybe it didn't close down the connection to the keyboard? If that's anything like how it actually works. I tried plugging the keyboard directly into the machine (not through the KVM) while it was 'locked up', but that had no effect either.

You should try 'sh MAKEDEV acd1' as the 'c' is confusing MAKEDEV (or mknod). This should create the acd1 device and the acd1c partition on that device.

Wow, that's a really worthless warning. I had to re-read it in the AM
to fully appreciate its non-usefulness for properly written software.
Thanks... when reading the error message and skimming the man page, I
thought it was promoting width of the argument to 4 bytes, not that
"in the event that the prototype isn't here, things will get hard to
debug." Thank you, for your incite. -sc

Sincerely First, don't use PGPnet, use Win2k's built in IPSEC stuff. To get to it, do a start/run, mmc, then file, add/remove snap-in, add. Ipsec security policies (choose local computer), close. Add a new policy and create the 2 tunnels. The wizards are actually confusing so I don't use them. The key is to uncheck the "mirror" rule. It doesn't work because of how you have to specify the tunnel end points. You'll also need to enable Routing and Remote Access (RRAS). Make sure you set up the filters to only allow the tunnel traffic (security thing). After you get that set up (start/run/ipsecmon is useful) racoon is pretty easy. You'll probably need to "enable_gateway=YES" in your rc.conf. If you do that, you'd be wise to set up ip filtering to keep out rogue traffic. I can't remember now if that option is actually needed for ipsec tunnels. I know it is for MPD using pptp. Also, don't set up the gif() stuff that you see in all the FAQ's. You only need racoon. If these 2 boxes aren't your default routers for the internal lans, then you'll need to add routes to the hosts. Do not set up routes on the 2 gateway boxes, the tunnels will forward the traffic. Ping in w2k is mostly stupid. You cannot set which NIC it sources from, so you will not be able to ping thru the tunnel from the w2k gateway. Drive shares and such will work. You can ping from hosts thru the tunnel though, so use that to test. Here is a big thing that I do not believe I've seen in the FAQ's: you need to lower the MTU of the w2k inside NIC and all the NICs of the hosts using the tunnel. W2k does not correctly negotiate MTU, even w/ the reg entry that is supposed to do it set. You need to add DWORD "MTU" to hkey_local_machine\system\currentcontrolset\services\tcpip\parameters\interf aces and find the correct interface in that list of GUIDs. Use ping from a host keep upping the packet size until you find the one that doesn't work, then lower it. It'll probably be somewhere around 1420 to account for the ipsec overhead. After creating that MTU entry, you'll need to reboot. Good luck. You can probably tell this took an extreme amount of time to figure out. Maybe one day I'll write my own FAQ... Hahaha! Now that is all said and done, if what you're trying to do is give that single w2k box access to the internal lan behind the freebsd box, you'd be better using MPD on the unix box which supports MS's PPTP protocol. That is much easier on the w2k box to set up. It sets up as a "dial" connection like a modem. Its also much easier to use if the w2k box has a dynamic ip (road warrior setup).

What you are seeing is probably the most literal demonstration of bit rot I can imagine. It sounds like the effect one gets from turning off the drive to the LCD panel, but leaving the back-light on. It's very odd looking. Most likely something in XFree86 is telling the video card to do something it does not like and, rather than drive the screen with potentially damaging signals, it just turns off. When you went from 4.8 to 5, did you hange versions of XFree86? Is the XF86Config file changed? Sounds like something must have changed in the XFree86 stuff that really upset the graphics system to the point it simply turned off. -- R.

USB mouse frozen under X
I'm attempting to switch to an all-USB set-up, and can't get the mouse to work under X. (I don't use it elsewhere, so moused is possible, but disfavored.) Symptoms: X starts; keyboard is fine; mouse cursor appears but is frozen centered horizontally and about 2/3 of the way down the screen. Clicking any button has no effect. Changing the mouse (to a MS IntelliMouse) has no effect. The _exact_ same set-up works perfectly under WinME. Appropriate bits of configuration and log files are appended. I've checked the FAQ and the Handbook, and searched the archives for the mailing lists and comp.unix.freebsd.misc - found nothing. Anyone have a clue what I'm missing?

5.1 GEOM problems
Hello, I've just upgraded my server from 5.0-RELEASE to 5.1-RELEASE yesterday, using buildworld/installworld et al. Ever since, I haven't been able to boot with any >= 5.0 kernel, GENERIC or custom, SMP or not (4.8 and 4.4 work, though). Every kernel panics with an error that looks something like this (this one is taken from trying to boot with GENERIC from the "kern.flp" floppy, from the 5.1-RELEASE CD): Fatal trp 12: page fault while in kernel mode cpuid =1; lapic.id = fault virtual address = 0x5c fault code = supervisor read . current process = 4 (g_down) trap number = 12 panic: page fault boot -v shows that this error happens RIGHT after it says "GEOM: new disk idad0", so I have a sneaking suspicion that GEOM doesn't like my raid controller, even though it's been working rather flawlessly ever since I've start using BSD. I'm not even quite sure what GEOM is, does, or why it's making my kernel panic. So I was wondering whether this was a known issue and if there was some kind of solution available? Or maybe if it might just be a flagrant mistake on my part? Regardless, any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

USB keyboard and KVM
I'm working on my very first FreeBSD machine running FreeBSD 4.8-RELEASE. I've worked with many Macs and toyed with Linux, and I'm finding FreeBSD very nice. I have one issue I haven't been able to figure out yet. I'm using a USB keyboard with a USB KVM switch. When the machine boots, the keyboard is recognized and works fine. (The keyboard doesn't seem to have any effect at the "Hit [enter] to boot immediately..." line of startup, though.) However, if I switch the KVM to another computer and back, the machine doesn't respond to the keyboard. The monitor comes back fine, but the keyboard and mouse don't seem to do anything. I can log in via SSH, but I would like to turn SSH off and just use the KVM set up. I'm only using the CLI, so the mouse isn't an issue for me. This is my first FreeBSD install, and also my first PC hardware and I'm at a loss. If someone could point me in the right direction, I'd really appreciate it. I have: usbd_enable="YES" blanktime="0" at the end of rc.conf. I added: kbdcontrol -k /dev/kbd0 < /dev/ttyv0 > /dev/null to the end of /etc/rc.i386 based on the FAQ. I added: options KBD_INSTALL_CDEV to the kernel config and recompiled, based on my interpretation of the ukbd man page.

Creating a IPSec tunnel between a Windows machine and a machine running FreeBSD
The topology is as fallows: Node A <-> Internet <--> Node B <-> Internal net B where node A's external address is 111.111.11.111 node B's internal address is 12.3.4.567 external address is 222.222.222.2 Node A is running windows 2000 and I am using PGPnet to make a tunnel to Node B which is running FreeBSD and I am using racoon on that machine. The tunnel has to be working for all traffic. I am not sure, but I think that Node B is not set up as gateway/router. It is very important that the connection is set up as a tunnel and not as a transporter. I greatly appreciate your help.
