hw.ata.wc vs soft updates

2003-10-01 Thread Sergei Vyshenski

Is it correct and/or clever to use BOTH

1) soft updates enabled and 2) hw.ata.wc=0

on FreeBSD-4.9 system?

Will it enhance chances to have consistent disk
after power loss?
How much slower it will be compared to the case of
1) soft updates enabled and 2) hw.ata.wc=1

Thanks in advance for any comment.

Sometimes, it's always good to check. I don't use a customized kernel so 
I can't speak from experience, but this might be a solution for you. 
Keep a copy of GENERIC somewhere safe where it won't get overwritten 
when you update and diff it with the new kernel whenever you update your 
source tree. From here you should be able to use your judgement to 
determine how to continue.

Sound card

2003-10-01 Thread Jarosaw Nozderko

OS:  FreeBSD 5.1-RELEASE

Hi,

 I have cheap, ISA sound card recognized as OPTi931. It works without 
problems on Linux (RH 7.3, upgraded kernel 2.4.21 + XFS) with
the following line in /etc/modules.conf:

options mad16 io=0x530 irq=5 dma=0 dma16=0 mpu_io=0x300 mpu_irq=7

I'd like to make it working under FreeBSD. After reading the 
Handbook, I've tried to use the following entries in 
/boot/device.hints:

hint.sbc.0.at=isa
hint.sbc.0.port=0x530
hint.sbc.0.irq=5
hint.sbc.0.drq=0

or:

hint.pcm.0.at=isa
hint.pcm.0.irq=5
hint.pcm.0.drq=0
hint.pcm.0.flags=0x0

I tried kernel built with both options pcm and options sbc
as well as with options pcm alone.

I still got the same result: 

/var/run/dmesg.boot:

pcm0: OPTi931 at port 0xe8d-0xe8f,0x220-0x22f,0x380-0x38b,0x534-0x537 irq 5 
drq 1,0 on isa0
AD_WAIT_INIT FAILED 1002000 0xff

(Sometimes, depending on options, it may be pcm1 instead of pcm0, but 
error is the same).

When I use pcm options only, I got warning on KDE startup Can't find /dev/dsp
and when I use sbc options, this warning does not appear. 

Shoud I put all options in kernel config file and nothing in device.hints ?

Frankly speaking, I'm not an expert in sound cards, so perhaps this is
some basic mistake.

I do not know exactly if FreeBSD 4.x has a trm module, but you might
first try to do
kldload trm
If that does work (i.e. print some success messages), you can add
trm_load=yes
to your /boot/loader.conf file to have the trm module loaded at boot

If the trm.ko module is not available, yes, you need to recompile your

port install to jail root from host system

Re: Install Trouble

2003-10-01 Thread Tim Hawes

Renewing the call for help...

I am trying to get a realtek 8139 nic card working under FreeBSD. I
turned off the serial ports in the bios, but it seems to still find a
serial port (misreading a device as a serial port???) and gives it an
irq of 11 which conflicts with the realtek card. I noticed that the same
card under windows has an irq of 60. 

I am using FreeBSD 5.1 and I tried reassigning the irq for the nic card
using /boot/device.hints as described in the handbook. It does not seem
to effect it at all. What kernel parameters can I pass to reassign this
irq?

I have a complete dmesg log I can email if someone wants to look at this
as well.

I thank you all in advance for your assistance.

Most of the time, this appears to work, but it's not at all desirable.
Generally, if you install a more recent version of a package you've
already installed, then the files from the newer package just
overwrite the files from the older one.

According to pkg_info(1) you'll have both packages installed, but
that's not really the case.  The best way to sort out this sort of
problem is to pkg_delete both versions of the port, and then
re-install the version that you actually want.

In order to avoid getting into this situation in the first place, use
portupgrade(1) and friends to manage your installed ports.

While that's a good way of handling multiple installations of the same
port (even if they are different revisions), it doesn't really help
when you have two different ports that both lay claim to the same
files.  While port maintainers go to great lengths to make their ports
co-exist happily with any other ports, sometimes it just isn't
possible.  There is a (relatively) new 'CONFLICTS' variable in the
port Makefiles which should go a long way towards preventing such
problems.  Unfortunately, use of the CONFLICTS variable is nowhere
near ubiquitous yet.

In the specific case of the various linux_base ports you ask about:

/usr/ports/emulators:% foreach m (linux_base*/Makefile)
foreach? echo $m
foreach? make -f $m -V CONFLICTS
foreach? end
linux_base-6/Makefile
linux_base-*
linux_base-8/Makefile
linux_base-*
linux_base-debian/Makefile
linux_base-*
linux_base/Makefile
linux_base-*

ie. all of the different linux_base ports conflict with each other. So
the short answer to your question is yes.

Cheers,

Matthew

Heh, better have your asbestos underwear on when you utter phrases like
true UNIX system around here. ;)

The differences between FreeBSD and many Linux distros aren't as great
as some people think. I would argue that FreeBSD is more sophisticated
behind the scenes (with ports, cvs, et al) but by and large most of your
Linux experience will carry over into FreeBSD.
 
 What shall be the 5.x release? What is the new technology you will include in it? 
 I might probably buy it (a combo promotion of 4 CD set + Handbook 2nd edition). 
 However I'd like to know a bit more about it first. 

If you're just starting out with FreeBSD, consider using 5.1. Yes, it is
considered -CURRENT (new and possibly unstable) but most people don't
seem to have any showstopping problems with it. If you start learning
5.x now, then you'll be in a slightly better position for when 5.x is
considered stable. However, it's ultimately your choice.

Additionally, be aware that FreeBSD is extremely well documented, from
the man pages all the way up to the handbook and other external docs, so
you shouldn't really _need_ a book in the way that you would for a
calculus class, for example. But again, it's your choice. I'm not sure,
but I think that the FreeBSD Mall donates a certain amount to FreeBSD
development, so ponder that too. (freebsdmall.com was down at the time
of writing, so I couldn't confirm.)

If you have any questions about anything at all regarding FreeBSD, this

Normally coexistence of new and old versions is not the way to go, and 
pkg_add or 'make install' in the port-directory will refuse to work.
If you want to upgrade 'make deinstall  make reinstall' or pkg_delete 
and pkg_install (with the new version) should be the way to go.
For a more comfortable way you should have a look into portupgrade, wich 
can upgrade all you outdated ports via the ports-system or packages.
I never tried this with FreeBSD, but from my linux-experiments I can 
tell that having multible Versions of the same Programm is usually going 
to give you trouble if you've not been really carefully in terms of 
install and libary Paths. It's even more trouble to do this with libarys.

It actually works quite well if you use mount_null(8) to re-mount your
/usr/ports tree inside the jail, and set the WRKDIRPREFIX environment
variable to something like /usr/obj so that you don't actually write
into the /usr/ports tree while compiling.

A line something like:

  /usr/ports  /jail/192.168.0.2/usr/ports null rw 0 0

in /etc/fstab in the host system should do the trick nicely.

That way, you can just ssh(1) into your jailed system and manage
ports/packages exactly as you do in the host system.  This will also
avoid, in a trivially simple way, problems caused by corrupting the
/var/db/pkg database in the host system.

Re: Why is PCE not set in CR4?

 You can do it with /dev/perfmon. man 4 perfmon.
 
 I have read the perfmon documentation and source code. For several 
 reasons, I do not think it is totally adequate in my situation.

Hi,

Eat this. Diff attached. Test this and I'll commit it to -CURRENT if you're
happy with it. If you can tell me more about what perfmon needs I'll give
it love too.

This is an extension to the i386_vm86() syscall which will let you turn
PCE on and off if you're the superuser.

Re: FreeBSD download

2003-10-01 Thread Jerry McAllister

 
 Dear Sir or Madam, 
  
 I'm interested in using FreeBSD as part of rearrengement of my professional 
 skills. 
 I'm currently studing Linux but I'd like to feel a bit of a true UNIX system. 
  
 I noticed FreeBSD is presented in a 4 CD set case by FreeBSD Mall, for example. 
 However, the download options are different. 
 I supose the minimum I might download is: 
4.8-RELEASE-i386-disk1.iso (610.4MB) 
4.8-RELEASE-i386-disk2.iso (259.1MB) 
  
 What is in fact the other 2 files? I.e.: 
   4.8-RELEASE-i386-mini.iso (199.6MB) and  
   CHECKSUM.MD5 (203 bytes) 
  
 Do I need them too? 

You need either the mini-iso or disk1.iso at the minimum.
I normally just use the mini-iso, but then I have a fast and reliable
network connection.

The disk1 + disk2 set contain a whole system plus some of the most
popular ports.   You can build a whole system from those two without
downloading anything.  Disk1 contains the installation system which
you boot from plus the OS.  Disk2 contains some more utilities and
ports.   I believe the other two disks in the set from FreeBSD Mall 
and some other vendors contain additional ports.  If your network 
connection is slow or unreliable you will want to get these and 
install completely from CD.

But, if  you have a good network connection with reasonable speed - at
least ISDN or DSL or cable modem or better - then just use the mini-iso.
(Or you could do this from disk1 or the set)  It contains the installation 
system.  You boot from the mini-iso CD (or disk1) and the install program
collects all the info for configuration and builds your disk and then
asks about where to load the system.   You pick one of the ftp sites
and it goes out and downloads everything else it needs including the 
ports skeleton (providing you tell it you want the whole ports tree).

So, either way works.   The file named CHECKSUM.MD5 contains the
checksums for the mini.iso, disk1.iso and disk2.iso files.  You can
use it to add some assurance that the downloads are correct.

  
 What shall be the 5.x release? What is the new technology you will 
 include in it? 

You need to go to the FreeBSD web site and study up on what is new
for 5.x.Unless you have some odd hardware or a need to do some
esoteric thing, you would not really need 5.x.   If your purpose is
to play around and learn stuff and you are not worrying about running
a production server right away, you might just choose 5.x anyway - but
be prepared for more things not quite ready for prime time.

If you are a little more nervous, or need something running reliable,
then stick to 4.8 or maybe 4.9 if it gets out soon enough to suit you.
Check Release Engineering on the FreeBSD site and look at the schedules.

 I might probably buy it (a combo promotion of 4 CD set + Handbook 2nd 
 edition). 
 However I'd like to know a bit more about it first. 

Well, you can find almost everything written by starting at the
website, reading there and following links and then going to a search
engine such as Google or Rambler and following links.   That should
get you all the 'more about it first' you can stand.   Then buy a cd 
set and any/all of the books that are out or download the appropriate 
iso and get started.

jerry

  
 Could you send me more information in order to clarify my doubts, please? 
 Thanks in advance for your assistance. 
  
 Kind regards,

IDE RAID controllers

2003-10-01 Thread Irvine Short

Hey All

Anyone used any IDE RAID controllers recently under FreeBSD?

I've found the Promise Fastrak stuff works really well for 0  1 but
doesn't support RAID 5.

We need a big filesystem, doesn't need to be all that fast or reliable,
and were ogling the new-ish 250GB Western Digital drives.

We've found a case that will accomodate 6 drives, cooled properly, and
were wondering what chance there was of getting a bit over a terabyte with
a system drive into a FreeBSD box?

ie, something like an 80GB boot drive and 5 x 250GB IDEs in RAID5, or even
just striped.

Our beige box supplier is very good on the hardware front but doesn't know
much about FreeBSD and has had trouble with the more fancy Promise
controllers with RAID 5 under other OS's.

They recommend the LSI MegaRAID i4 - see
http://www.lsilogic.com/products/stor_prod/raid/i4.html

Anyone used this under FreeBSD here?

   Have you checked /var/log/auth.log? You may be set up to check off of a

Re: port install to jail root from host system

 Hi,

 Does anyone know an easy way to do this with the ports system?
 
 I realise apache is dependant on various libraries that may not be in the

Just off the top of my head, certainly not guaranteed to be the
optimal solution, never tested, etc...

# assuming /jailfs is the root of your jail:

cd /usr/ports/www/apache13

Re: Why do you prefer FreeBSD???? Maybe Windows is more comfortable than FBSD?

 Sorry, I don't know the origin of this relevent quote:

I see the trolls have been back while I was on vacation.  I'm actually

All I'm gonna say is I've got my desktop tweaked out to a point that I
am so comfortable with it that I don't have to think about how to do
something, I just think about it and it happens.  And MY desktop will
work exactly the same on any Linux, FreeBSD, and with a little work,
Solaris - probably any other *nix I care to try too.

And these days, I feel like a fish on pluto when I have to screw with
someone's M$ can - totally un-intuitive if you ask me.  Funny how the
keyboards are the best thing on the market with the M$ name, but you
can hardly do anything in their UI with it.  I hate the mouse.  If it
weren't for the browsers, I'd probably never touch the stupid thing (I
know all about lynx, but when you're a web developer, you need to see
what everyone else is seeing - screw IE).

That's enough of my garbage for the troll.

Thanks, works all well until here. It still doesn't record anything. I guess 
it's either the soundcard or I'm too stupid for it  :-(

Is it really /dev/dsp0?
Below is the output from ecasound, maybe it helps (I installed from source 
with debug symbols). The file test.wav is there after running ecasound, but 
there's only silence in it.

Seagate/Conner CTT8000S problem on FreeBSD

2003-10-01 Thread Sorin Chiorean


Hi,

I'm running FreeBSD  5.1-RELEASE-p8 on a Pentium II with SCSI adapter

and with the following tape:
..kernel: sa0 at ahc0 bus 0 target 6 lun 0
..kernel: sa0: CONNER CTT8000-S 1.17 Removable Sequential Access
SCSI-2 device
..kernel: sa0: 5.000MB/s transfers (5.000MHz, offset 15)

I tried to backup up on a 8Gb(compress)TRAVAN TR-4 tape, 4.4Gb of data
and didn't work.
I used tar and dump and I ended up with the same problem: I can not
backup up more then 4Gba on /dev/sa0 or /dev/nsa0.
It's seems that hardware compression doesn't work on FreeBSD. Was
working fine on a Windows 2000 server before.

I tried to change Compression with #mt -f /dev/sa0 comp enable but
didn't work (I tried with comp on too)

tar vs cp

2003-10-01 Thread Jamie



I've been told in the past that if you have a series of directories
with subdirectories that you need to copy to another location on a disk,
it is better to tar the directory, move the tarred file to the
destination, and then untar it, rather than using cp to copy the directory
and all of its contents.

I don't know what the actual rationale is for this. Can anyone explain
why it is oftentimes better to tar something rather than using cp when
copying directories and their contents?




Thanks,

   - Jamie

Generally, I used to concur with this, but a couple years ago I bought a
USR PCI internal _hardware_ modem and it's worked great with every OS I
threw at it. They're pretty much all I recommend anymore.

tar handles symbolic links properly, whereas cp will copy through the contents 
of the link.

This drive doesn't seem to support hardware compression. You have to use

If you set up qmail to use /Maildir/ format, mail is stored in each users 
home dir under his/hers Maildir, so it would be under /usr/home/whomever... 
even root, for security reasons is assigned or aliased to a user. A Maildir 
is made with the command maildirmake as that user, in his $HOME. You can 
put in a Maildir in skel and it will automatically make a Maildir for each 
new user. Inside each Maildir there are 3 dirs, new, cur, tmp.. This is 
automatically created with the maildirmake command. Don't worry, if you 
will use IMAP, any MUA that can use IMAP will read the dirs properly... 
Providing you use a IMAP client that supports Maildir, as mentioned, 
Bincimap or Courier.

You know,

I've also been running into problems.  Ever since upgrading
gettext to 0.12.1 from 0.11.5 I'm getting all sorts of
issues when it comes to installing certain things(such as
gnome and kde and the like).  Do you happen to know of a
way to downgrade?  seems like it will be hard since so
many other programs depend upon gettext.  Any way to trick
the system into using the older gettext?

You are welcome. Once you get the hang of it, you will appreciate its
simplicity. It's the concept that has to sink in g  Later, if you wish,
you can add RBL's, SMTP auth or POP before SMTP for roadwarriors who
travel and want to send mail off your server, etc.. Lots of fun things.

When you set it up for Maildir format, make sure you use ./Maildir/ with
the trailing / as ./Maildir alone will make it something else..

Why try and implement hacks that might cause further problems, instead
of just fixing the problem by rebuilding those ports that depend on
gettext but were not rebuilt when you upgraded it to the new version
with the library major bump?

RE: Perl cgi redirect not working - Partially solved

2003-10-01 Thread Charles Howse

 Hi,
 I'm *copying an example* perl cgi script from FreeBSD Unleashed pp.
 699.
 I have 2 issues.
 
 1. The redirect on the last line isn't working.  It opens a blank page
 and prints the text Location: http://howse.no-ip.org/thanks.shtml;.
 That's not what I want.  I want to open the page thanks.shtml.
 
 2. I can't see the text in the book clear enough to know whether the
 characters I've marked with ^ should be dashes or tildies.
 
 I've Googled for the redirect, and tried a few examples, no joy.
 Would someone be kind enough to help?
 
 
 #!/usr/bin/perl
 
 read(STDIN, $buffer, $ENV{'CONTENT_LENGTH'});
 @pairs = split(//, $buffer);
 foreach $pair (@pairs)
 {
 ($name, $value) = split(/=/, $pair);
 $value =~ tr/+/ /;
 ^
 $value =~ s/%([a-fA-F0-9][a-fA-F0-9])/pack(C, hex($1))/eg;
 ^
 $value =~ s/~!/ ~!/g;
 ^   ^   ^ 
 $FORM{$name} = $value;
 }
 
 print Content-type: text/html\n\n;
 
 open (MAIL,| /usr/sbin/sendmail -oi -t);
 print MAIL From: $FORM{'name'} $FORM{'email'}\n;
 print MAIL To: charles\n;
 print MAIL Subject: Contact form output\n\n;
 print MAIL $FORM{'name'}, from $ENV{'REMOTE_HOST'}
 ($ENV{'REMOTE_ADDR'}), has sent you the following comment:\n\n;
 print MAIL $FORM{'comment'}\n;
 close (MAIL);
 
 print Location: http://howse.no-ip.org/thanks.shtml\n\n;;

I removed the print Content-type: text/html\n\n; line, and now the
redirect works.
Still awaiting some input on the 2nd issue.
