Strange ioctl error

2003-11-14 Thread Adam McLaurin
Early today my machine froze up (I think it overheated), and ever since I get
this error when booting up my machine:

...
Enabling ipfilter.
IP Filter: already initialized
IP Filter: already initialized
IP Filter: already initialized
IP Filter: already initialized
ioctl(SIOCIPFL6): Invalid argument
Installing NAT rules.0 entries flushed from NAT table
0 entries flushed from NAT list
...

I've googled for that error, but I've not found anything useful. I can't really
find what harm the error might be causing, but it's an error nonetheless, and
I'd like to find out what's causing it and fix it, before it becomes a problem.

If anyone has any idea what this might be, or how to go about figuring it out,
let me know. I'm baffled at the moment.

Thanks.

It never even occured to me to parse fstab to get a list of mountpoints and 
then just do them all automatically. If you've got lots of Samba shares, it 
comes in really handy.

When I was setting up my share, I tried putting .nsmbrc in /root initially, 
but IIRC it didn't work. Now that I look at the correct rc.d script, it 
probably didn't work because $HOME wasn't set. Does that make sense?

"The Complete FreeBSD": errata and addenda

2003-11-14 Thread Greg Lehey
The trouble with books is that you can't update them the way you can a web page
or any other online documentation.  The result is that most leading edge
computer books are out of date almost before they are printed.  Unfortunately,
The Complete FreeBSD, published by O'Reilly, is no exception.  Inevitably, a
number of bugs and changes have surfaced.

"The Complete FreeBSD" has been through a total of five editions, including its
predecessor "Installing and Running FreeBSD".  Two of these have been reprinted
with corrections.  I maintain a series of errata pages.  Start at
http://www.lemis.com/errata-4.html to find out how to get the errata
information.

Have you found a problem with the book, or maybe something confusing?  Please
let me know: I'm constantly updating it.

How to get the best results from FreeBSD questions.
===

Last update $Date: 2003/03/09 22:09:31 $

This is a regular posting to the FreeBSD questions mailing list.  If
you got it in answer to a message you sent, it means that the sender
thinks that at least one of the following things was wrong with your
message:

- You left out a subject line, or the subject line was not appropriate.
- You formatted it in such a way that it was difficult to read.
- You asked more than one unrelated question in one message.
- You sent out a message with an incorrect date, time or time zone.
- You sent out the same message more than once.
- You sent an 'unsubscribe' message to FreeBSD-questions.

If you have done any of these things, there is a good chance that you
will get more than one copy of this message from different people.
Read on, and your next message will be more successful.

II:   How to unsubscribe from FreeBSD-questions
III:  Should I ask -questions, -newbies or -hackers?
IV:   How to submit a question to FreeBSD-questions
V:How to answer a question to FreeBSD-questions

I: Introduction
===

This is a regular posting aimed to help both those seeking advice from
FreeBSD-questions (the "newcomers"), and also those who answer the
questions (the "hackers").

   Note that the term "hacker" has nothing to do with breaking
   into other people's computers.  The correct term for the latter
   activity is "cracker", but the popular press hasn't found out
   yet.  The FreeBSD hackers disapprove strongly of cracking
   security, and have nothing to do with it.

In the past, there has been some friction which stems from the
different viewpoints of the two groups.  The newcomers accused the
hackers of being arrogant, stuck-up, and unhelpful, while the hackers
accused the newcomers of being stupid, unable to read plain English,
and expecting everything to be handed to them on a silver platter.  Of
course, there's an element of truth in both these claims, but for the
most part these viewpoints come from a sense of frustration.

In this document, I'd like to do something to relieve this frustration
and help everybody get better results from FreeBSD-questions.  In the
following section, I recommend how to submit a question; after that,
we'll look at how to answer one.

II:  How to unsubscribe from FreeBSD-questions
==

When you subscribed to FreeBSD-questions, you got a welcome message
from [EMAIL PROTECTED]  In this message, amongst other things, it
told you how to unsubscribe.  Here's a typical message:

  Welcome to the freebsd-questions mailing list!

  If you ever want to remove yourself from this mailing list,
  you can send mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" with the following command
  in the body of your email message:

  unsubscribe freebsd-questions Greg Lehey <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

  Here's the general information for the list you've
  subscribed to, in case you don't already have it:

  FREEBSD-QUESTIONS   User questions
  This is the mailing list for questions about FreeBSD.  You should not
  send "how to" questions to the technical lists unless you consider the
  question to be pretty technical.

Normally, unsubscribing is even simpler than the message suggests: you
don't need to specify your mail ID unless it is different from the one
which you specified when you subscribed.

If Majordomo replies and tells you (incorrectly) that you're not on
the list, this may mean one of two things:

  1.  You have changed your mail ID since you subscribed.  That's where
  keeping the original message from majordomo comes in handy.  For
  example, the sample message above shows my mail ID as
  [EMAIL PROTECTED]  Since then, I have changed it to
  [EMAIL PROTECTED]  If I were to try to remove [EMAIL PROTECTED] from
  the list, it would fail: I would have to specify the name with
  which I joined.

  2.  You're subscribed to a mailing list which is subscribed to
  FreeBSD-questions.  If that's the case, you'll have to figure out
  which one it is and get your name taken off that one.  If you're
  not sure which one it might be, check the headers of the
  messages you receive from freebsd-questions: maybe there's a
  clue there.

If you've done all this, and you still can't figure out what's going
on, send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED], and he will sort things
out for you.  Don't send a message to FreeBSD-questions: they can't
help you.

III: Should I ask -questions, -newbies or -hackers?
===

Two mailing lists handle general questions about FreeBSD,
FreeBSD-questions and FreeBSD-hackers.  In addition, the

OK, I have confirmed that all IDE cables in the machine, with the exception
of the one going to the CD, which is on it's own controlere, are 80 wire
ones.

5.1 Kernel panic on install

2003-11-14 Thread Kevin Orviss
Hi Guys,

I am trying to install FreeBSD 5.1 from CD on a Toshiba Tecra 8200 Laptop.
No matter what mode I start the install in, it results in a kernel panic.
The laptop has an in built Intel NIC and an inbuilt Wireless NIC as well. As
you can see from the output below it always happens after the Wi-Fi NIC has
been detected. I think it has something to do with the way the interupts are
being re-routed, but I do not know how to get around it as this is my first
'adventure' with FreeBSD.


Here is the last output I can see on screen before the kernal panic:

=
Wi0: Lucent Firmware: Station (6.14.1)
Wi0: supported rates: 1Mbps 2Mbps 5.5 Mbps 11Mbps


Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode
fault virtual address   = 0xdbbd8000
fault code  = supervisor read, page not present
Instruction pointer = 0x8 : 0xc025fe25
Stack pointer   = 0x10 : 0xd6959964
Frame pointer   = 0x10 : 0xd6959b7c
Code segment= base 0x0, limit 0xf, type 0x1b
= DPL 0, pres 1, def32 1, gran 1
Processor eflags= interrupt enabled, resume, IOPL = 0
Current process = 25 (cbb1)
Trap number = 12
Panic: page fault 
==

I have looked through the FreeBSD handbook, but I just do not have enough
experience with FreeBSD to make sense of it. Can anyone give any help?

Thanks

Kevin

Re: beeping on console...NOT X - related question

On a related note, where do you set the amount of scrollback kept in the
console or xterm?  If I want to Shift-PageUp I can only go a few screens
before stopping.  I don't need to scroll back to the beginning of
something really silly like 'find / *e*', but I'd love to be able to get
back to the beginning of 'dmesg' (I know, I should pipe to 'less' or a file,
but I like being able to retrace my steps when I realize partway through
that I should have been running 'script').  Thanks.

AFAIK the FTP server software is not responsible for account expiration.
I'd do it with this command:

# at midnight
rmuser -y

It showed up on pnpinfo, so it was probably not wired on the PCI bus.
Since it's a SoundBlaster compatible card, either pcm(4) or one of
the sb modules:

  $ ls -l /boot/kernel/snd_sb*
  -r-xr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  18141 Nov 14 15:48 /boot/kernel/snd_sb16.ko
  -r-xr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  17296 Nov 14 15:48 /boot/kernel/snd_sb8.ko
  -r-xr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  16370 Nov 14 15:48 /boot/kernel/snd_sbc.ko

should work. Try RTFM:

  $ man 4 pcm
  $ man 4 sbc
  $ man 4 sb16

Good luck.

Heh.. . everyone seems to be responding with 'nslookup -type=ns foo.com'
or 'host -t ns foo.com', but those queries return *all* name servers and
make no distinction which one is the primary. For that you have to query
the SOA which contains the primary name server for a domain.
-> host -t soa foo.com

Okay, that's a sound blaster or SB compatible card. Should work
with the pcm(4) driver; perhaps also with sbc(4). You're running
a GENERIC kernel, right?

After "kldload snd", have you tried a few sound apps?
Don't forget to set acceptable values for volume and pcm
with the 'mixer' program, if you want to hear something.

CROND - Command not found

2003-11-14 Thread kamikazed
The problem you are seeing here is not that the cron
daemon can't find rsync.  Rather, the problem is that
the remote shell invoked by the rsync command cannot
find the rsync executable on the remote host.  You can
solve this by adding the following option:

--rsync-path=PATH

typically PATH is /usr/local/bin/rsync, but can vary.

It  is indeed.   But suExec  has to  be patched[1]  to allow  php to  be
executed by any user running it, as  plain suExec requires the cgi to be
owned by the user  running it.  If you don't patch it,  you will need to
copy the cgi in every user's directory.

I have a full description of that system if you need it.

Mozilla Firebird doesn't start

2003-11-14 Thread Stefan Schwarzer
Hello

on FreeBSD 5.1, I installed Firebird 0.7 from the ports. However, I
cannot start it from an xterm. If I enter

$ firebird

or

$ MozillaFirebird

the system pauses for about a second, then returns to the prompt.
ps(1) doesn't show a running firebird, and

$ echo $?

yields 1.

Surprisingly, when I invoke Firebird via urlview from mutt, it starts
fine! For urlview, I supplied a modified url_handler.sh, but only the
line for the HTTP clients is changed to

http_prgs="/usr/X11R6/bin/firebird:XW /usr/local/bin/elinks:XT 
/usr/local/bin/netscape:XW /usr/local/bin/lynx:XT /usr/local/bin/w3m:XT 
/usr/local/bin/links:XT"

(without the indent :-) ).

I didn't have these problems with Firebird 0.6. With 0.7, I currently
only have the workaround to start Firebird via an http URL in mutt.
...

After having examined a bit more what urlview does, I noticed that I
can start Firebird by passing an URL:

$ firebird http://google.com &

So at least I have an acceptable workaround for now. Nonetheless,
Firebird's behaviour seems strange. I didn't find anything on the
topic with Google and not in
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr-summary.cgi or
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr-summary.cgi?category=ports&sort=none&text=firebird&closedtoo=on
Should I issue a bug report?

(I'm not subscribed to the list; if you reply, please cc me. Thanks!)

to determine  primary DNS server:

whois -h whois.networksolutions.com domainname.com (Only works for .com 
.net and .org domains)
or:
nslookup -q=NS domainname.com
or:
dig domainname.com

To determine who hosts the domain is harder.
You can traceroute to it (Which should at least give you the upstream 
ISP) or you can do a whois against the IP like:
whois -h whois.arin.net ip.ip.ip.ip 
substitute RIPE or APNIC's whois servers for whois.arin.net when dealing 
with non-North American IP's.
This wil also give you the upstream ISP usually.

mount ufs fails

2003-11-14 Thread Mihail
Hi,

For some strange reason I can no longer
mount my ufs partition ( root partition =( )
using FreeBSD5.1 live-cd. When I type
mount /dev/ad0s2 /mnt 
I recieve 'Operation not permited'.
Yet, the other ufs slice on that disk
mounts ok.
Could it be somehow corrupt? I've
recently unsuccessfully tried loading
a new kernel from cvs, which gave up
and panicked.
Can someone give me an advice on
this? I'm really puzzled and stuck.

sysquery: no addrs found for root NS

2003-11-14 Thread Toomas Aas
Hello!

I have seen this problem two times on one RELENG_4_8 machine and now I 
just saw it on a freshly installed 4.9-RELEASE. I've tried to google 
but the results i've found haven't helped me this far.

On the machines where the problem happens, I'm running BIND from the 
base sytem (8.3.4 and 8.3.6 respectively) as a caching-only nameserver 
without any local zones defined (except the 'localhost' zones created 
by make-localhost.sh).

Suddenly, out of the blue, syslogd starts writing the following into 
the log:

Nov 14 21:31:23 machine named[81]: sysquery: no addrs found for root NS
(E.ROOT-SERVERS.NET) 
Nov 14 21:31:23 machine named[81]: sysquery: no addrs found for root NS 
(D.ROOT-SERVERS.NET) 
Nov 14 21:31:23 machine named[81]: sysquery: no addrs found for root NS 
(E.ROOT-SERVERS.NET) 
Nov 14 21:31:23 machine named[81]: sysquery: no addrs found for root NS 
(H.ROOT-SERVERS.NET) 
Nov 14 21:31:23 machine named[81]: sysquery: no addrs found for root NS 
(I.ROOT-SERVERS.NET) 
Nov 14 21:31:23 machine named[81]: sysquery: no addrs found for root NS 
(J.ROOT-SERVERS.NET)

and it logs A LOT of these messages. First time it happened on a 
RELENG_4_8 machine, the log filled up my 1 GB /var partition. The 
second time it logged ca 30 000 lines in 3 seconds and then everything 
returned to normal without any intervention. The third time, on 
4.9-RELEASE machine, when I was actually present at the time it started 
happening, I restarted the machine and this returned things to normal.

I understand what the message is saying, but I don't understan what 
causes it to say such a thing. It's hard to believe that there is 
something wrong with my root zone file, because 99.9% of the time the 
problem does not happen and DNS lookups work just fine (including 
commands like 'host e.root-servers.net').

The relevant portion of named.conf:

< cut >-

forwarders {
194.126.106.110;
194.126.115.18;
};


zone "." {
type hint;
file "named.root";
};

< cut >-


The named.root file is standard one installed by FreeBSD and I haven't

Edgeport USB <-> Serial Hub support?

2003-11-14 Thread Peter Losher
Is anyone using any of the Edgeport USB/Serial converters under FreeBSD? 
(like the Edgeport 4/ or 8/?)  Does plugging them in spawn the 
neccessary ucom* /dev entrys?  Or does it need a specific driver that 
isn't in FreeBSD yet? (The web site at ionetworks.com says that it is 
supported under Linux, so there is some small hope)

I get this error when I am trying to start apmd on a FreeBSD 5.1-RELEASE-p10

Without apmd, rc.suspend and rc.resume are not run which means I can't

Its posible that you didn't write all calls to there full path. On the
shell you can type portrupgrade to start it. But from cron you have to
write /usr/local/sbin/portupgrade.

Make sure you cvsup either ports-all or you have ports-base in your

You may want to uncomment the line 'time' in inetd - if I recall correctly
that is the one you are after (set set inetd_enable=yes, etc).

Not familiar with that error code, what do the logs say?
(/var/log/cups/errors_log or something).

Cups is meant to replace the system lpr binaries, so make sure the system
ones are not being used:

%which lpr
Should not return a pointer to /usr/sbin (or is it bin), but should point to
/usr/local/sbin.

You could also try using apsfilter, a very good printing system that uses
the native lpr stuff.

Disklabel problem IBM SCSI3 disks, vinum too

2003-11-14 Thread Bob Collins
Running FBSD 4.9 on an Intel SMP mobo w/ 2 Intel PII 350s. Onboard SCSI is 
recognized and sees all my drives. One SCSI 3 drive is 4.5G for the OS and 
/usr. I have 4 identical IBM SCSI3 disks 9G each, however one of those 4 
will not disklabel. The other three will. This leads to troubles then, 
obviously, to setting the 4 drives for vinum use. Was using these 4 drives 
on 5.0-RELEASE with vinum previously no troublesdowngraded for some 
backup software (bacula) compatibility reasons.

In dmesg, da1, da2, da3, da4 all show as identical drives, model number, 
capacity, etc. I have not removed the drive to see if there is a special 
jumper to protect such things, I shall do this later today.

When I try to `disklabel -e da4', I get the info open, I can change 
whatever I like, then when I save the file it complains; that the device 
does not support this feature. The other 3 drives all did `disklabel -e 
dax' with no trouble.

One note, when I `disklabel -e da4' (the drive in question) it has Name: 
"DNES something" and for Label: "IBM"? The other 3 did not have this.

TIA

In xterm you can hold down control and right click on the xterm background to 
pop up a menu that will allow you to change the text size.  I don't know about 
any of your other apps.  Hope this helps.

The following states: http://www.ibr.cs.tu-bs.de/users/thuerman/time/sync.html

Usually RFC 868 is implemented in inetd (8).

Don't know anything about that, but perhaps it gives you the right hint.

Re: FreeBSD 5.x / make installworld woes

2003-11-14 Thread Edmund L. Wong
Ruben -

Thanks for the prompt response.  When did this update
to statfs occur?  

I actually just joined the questions mailing list... I
will look into joining the current one as well.

I am actually using a kernel built on Nov 1 which is
the one that refuses to work with any of the basic
commands.  And make installworld also refuses to
continue because I think it uses some of the commands
that now fail (they all dump core, complaining of a
bad syscall.  I assume this is related to the statfs
change).

So I guess I will have to reinstall huh?

Thanks,
- Ed

RFC 868 timeserver for freebsd

2003-11-14 Thread Roger 'Rocky' Vetterberg
Hi list,

I recently installed a few SNMP interfaces to monitor some UPS modules 
in our network, and these interfaces require a timeserver to syncronize 
their clocks. I have tried the ntpd in FreeBSD 4.9 as well as msntp from 
ports, but none of them work with these interfaces.

According to the manufacturer, the interfaces requires a timeserver that 
supports the RFC 868 protocoll, which ntpd and msntp doesnt seem to do. 
I've found several references to RFC's in the manpage of ntpd, however, 
it does not mention 868.

Does anyone know of a timeserver supporting the RFC 868 protocoll that 
runs on FreeBSD or possibly linux?

TIA

I have O'Reilly's Practical C Programming by Steve Oualline and think
it's pretty good for beginners. He glazes over a lot of stuff in the
beginning, but I think that ends up helping in the long run. (Kinda
like, "this is how it works" followed later by "okay, this is how it
*really* works.") Coupled with the K&R book (especially the standard
library reference appendix!), I'm now learning C at a phenomenal rate.

Yes, this is a result of recent changes in statfs structure. Has 
been announced and discussed on the -current mailing list (that you 
really should be subscribed to when you want to follow -current).
It has also been documented in UPDATING (allways a must when updating
via cvsup).
Adding to this, following -current is not recommended for new users
(http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/current-stable.html#CURRENT), so
maybe you would be better of running -stable instead?

IF you build and installed a new kernel allready, you might save
your installation just by rebooting into the new kernel, which is
aware of the new 64-bit statfs and can still handle the old
binaries. Reboot to single user mode and finish the installworld, 
then boot multiuser and your fine again (hopefully)

Good luck,

I saw that you got a couple responses to this, but they were just a bit
off from the "correct" way to do it. Edward came very close, so I'm just
going to expand upon what he said. First, If I recall correctly, the
smbfs.sh that goes in /usr/local/etc/rc.d was somehow accidentally left
out of the release. If you don't have it, you can get it here:

http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/contrib/smbfs/examples/smbfs.sh.sample

Click on the "Download" link for the newest version. It's probably
better to use this version instead of a home-made one so that you don't
run into problems down the road. (Don't forget to nuke the "sample"
extension.)

Your /etc/fstab is fine, but you should move /etc/nsmb.conf to
/root/.nsmbrc. If you consult mount_smbfs(8), you'll see that this is
where mount_smbfs expects it to be. Plus, keeping it here affords you a
little bit better security. (Double-check that it's readable/writable by
root ONLY!)

Finally, you should obfuscate the password with "smbutil crypt". This is
NOT encryption, it will only protect the password from being discovered
by casual observation. You should still treat it as plaintext, even in
obfuscated form, as the "encryption" is almost as trivial to crack as
rot13.

Good luck!

I did all that and still had 4.8 that is why I went the sysinstall
route. obviously I am doing something wrong when I cvsup it as it is
grabbing the 4.8 sources and not 4.9 same with sysinstall via ftp.

Yea this was my next course of action I was just wondering what I was

FreeBSD 5.x / make installworld woes

2003-11-14 Thread Edmund L. Wong
Hello all,

I am a relatively new FreeBSD user running a CURRENT
version of FreeBSD 5.x (I forget the number, but I
just rebuilt the kernel about a week ago).  When I ran
a make buildworld/installworld this morning after
updating my sources (via cvsup), the installworld
portion failed at some point.  Following this, most
functionality in my system now ceases to work
(including ls, rm, etc.).  I can get a prompt as root
but not much else.

I do realize now that it is recommened that I rebuild
the kernel, run mergemaster and reboot before doing
installworld.  But obviously its a bit late for that
now.

Is there any way this installation can be saved?  Or
must I reinstall from scratch now?  If so, is there a
recommended way of going about this such that I don't
lose any of my data (in my home directory)?

Thanks in advance,
Ed

how can i change the default text size of applications?

2003-11-14 Thread KroNiC~BSD
Can i change the size of the display fonts without changing my
resolution? Ok, here is the issue. I am  using a digital panel with
1280x1024 for my resolution. Everything is fine except the text for
applications is too small and the text in terminal windows again too
small. For ex. in a app. such as mozilla, firebird, openoffice etc... the
menus ...file edit view tools help etc.. are too small. In thunderbird ,
i can increase the text size for the reading portion but again the menu
or the portion that shows the subject, sender and date are too small for
comfort. As i also mentioned the text for xterm or aterm is the same, too
small to read comfortably.

thanks in advance and have a great day.

FreeBSD 4.9 and Kerberos5.

2003-11-14 Thread Lewis Thompson
Hi,

I'm trying to install Kerberos 5 on two FreeBSD 4.9-RELEASE machines.
I've not had to do this before (I actually downgraded from 5.1-RELEASE
recently) because 5.1-RELEASE included it.

  I'm doing the following:

cd /usr/src/kerberos5
make

but this fails with the following:

  I am wondering whether or not this error has anything to do with the
warning about the object directory.  I searched and found an email that
suggested a previous problem with krb5_err.h was due to -I${KRB5OBJDIR}
not being in the CFLAGS.  I checked and it is now there, yet it still
fails.

  Also, after the error I ran 310.locate and locate krb5_err.h shows the
file exists at /usr/src/kerberos5/lib/libhdb/krb5_err.h.

  Any ideas?  Thanks very much.

I was on a pretty short timescale for this essay but after attempting to
get the history /and/ a specific breakdown of a FreeBSD feature, I
quickly found it was almost impossible to get the level of detail I
required in 1,000 words.

  As a result I concentrated on the history of UNIX, specifically BSD,
up until 386BSD / settlement of the lawsuit in 1994.  I've put a PDF on
my website.  Anybody that is interested can see it at
http://www.lewiz.org/~lewiz/, it's at the bottom under ``Released
Documents''.  I will freely admit now that I am even now, after
extensive research, a bit unfamiliar with the exact order of events for
the lawsuit.  It was hard for me to determine if Jolitz write custom
files /before/ the lawsuit, or after.  If anybody can confirm or correct
what I've written on this, I would greatly appreciate it -- even though
the essay is already submitted.

  Thanks to everybody who gave me suggestions.  They were all very
useful -- especially the links to histories, etc.  Best wishes,

-lewiz.

Well the OS sees an ATA100 Controller which is good.  So i guess you could
first look into the issue of the ribbon cable as mentioned below so that
we can eliminate that.

Certainly.  If you replace the disk, disk controller, and cable, the
errors will certainly go away.  Doing one of those would be enough,
but I have no way to know which piece of hardware is causing the
problem.  I recommend starting by just reseating the cable; in my
experience, this often clears up ATA bus problems.

This is really a ports question, so I'm redirecting there.

Apparently you're dealing with bugs in the ports, but it's hard to be
sure without more details.  Can you give a specific example?

But it's not a dependency in the portssystem! ;) And it shouldn't have any 
influence whether cdbakeoven can detect the devices or not.

Anyway, thanks for your input. I've gotten a step closer; run as root, 
cdbakeoven recognises my devices. ;)

The user is a member of both wheel and operator. And the permission for /dev/
cd* is rw for all. But it's still only root that kan get cdbakeoven to 
recognise the devices.

So, I'm still at loss...

Pasting the output from /var/run/dmesg.boot would be useful so that we can
know what the controller is detected as and also see whether there is any
other useful information concerning this problem.

The last time I had such a problem, I solved it by using a 40 pin
80 wire ribbon cable in place of the 40 pin 40 wire ribbon cable.

He wrote that he doesn't want to go online to use a dictionary.

The only standalone dictionary I know of in ports is for German (de-dict).
buh# cat /usr/ports/net/dictd-database/pkg-descr
Dictd words database.
buh# cd /usr/ports/net/dictd-database/ && make install clean
buh# ifconfig rl0 down
Alt+F2 --> kdict --> OK
type some word and see the entries.
You can grep additional dictd databases from that URL.

cdrdao - CDR Disk At Once, the tool that allows you to record the entire cd at 
once instead of track by track. I believe that cdbakeoven uses this tool to 
detect the records, most of the other KDE recording apps do. I could be 
mistaken it been sometime since I used cdbakeoven.

the user will need to be in the group that has access to the cd burner device, 
most likely operator. That group will need rw access to the device. As for 
cdrecord and cdparanoia I've not used them so I'm not positive how they work.

Ok... some of this was black talk to me. I just tested cdbakeoven as root, and 
the devices was recognised. So I get the "it's something about 
permission"-part. What I don't get is the "cdrdao"-thing; it's a tool/app/
port, right? Don't have it installed. 

But what is it I need to change the permission for? Do i need to set cdda2wav, 
cdrecord and cdparanoia to SUID? Or is it some device I need to set the r-bit 
for in dev/?

I don't see a sound card (or a not-recognized card) either.
Could you also try 'pnpinfo' (again as root)?

What was the output of 'kldload snd'? 'kldstat'?

# kldload snd

will generally do what you want (load the correct driver).

Right. What does 'dmesg' say abount sound cards/chipsets?
You could also run 'pciconf -lv' (as root) and see if your
card is recognized.

Good luck.

Hi Chris,

Well I tried dia, and I like it pretty much. The editing responds
 nice, e.g. connecting boxes with lines.
