FreeBSD 4.10 and terminal woes
I decided to upgrade the box that I read my mail on (using mutt) to FreeBSD 4.10-STABLE. It has been running 4.9-STABLE since those days ;) Now all too suddenly, I have a mad terminal, display getting messed up when I read my mail, edit a file, almost anything. The only change was the upgrade. To give a little more details I can gather, when I ssh to the box from another Unix terminal, this madness is not there at all. But before I upgraded, I was using Microshit windows for a couple of days, connecting to this box using Telneat (aka ShellGuard) and there was no problem. IIRC, there was no change at all to /etc/termcap during mergemaster. I'll appreciate any clues. Not that I desperately need to run on Windows, but just so that I can know what happened and how to fix it. In my .bash_profile, I init my terminal as cons25.

Tool to rotate AVIs?
I have a shiny new digital camera, a Casio EX-S20. Haven't got it talking to the FreeBSD box yet (though it claims to do umass), but that's another story. It does video clips as AVIs. The AVIs are viewable in KDE3 aKtion!, so that's fine. But I'm after a tool to rotate them from landscape to portrait, losslessly. I know this can be done with JPEGs using jpegtran to manipulate the file - is a similar trick possible with AVIs? Or only with certain formats of AVI?

Re: 3Ware Escalade problem
I have the same problem on Asus p2bds. But i am just ignoring it and it has been discussed several time in the past. AFAIK the problem is that asus p2b is PCI 2.1 and this 3ware controller needs fully working PCI 2.2. So, you can either patch twe.c to disable the error message or change your motherboard to something newer. I chose to patch the twe.c and not see this error ever.

Re: UDMA ICRC error
I occasionally get those errors as well. When I'd boot, the drive would try and do ATA-100, fail, and revert to PIO-4. (I blame the cheap PCI IDE card, it came free with a hard drive, and I have to use it, since the nforce2 chipset on my mobo won't see anything but primary master and secondary master under FBSD.) I can make it work by setting the drive to ATA-33, though. (The command, for me, is # atacontrol mode 2 UDMA33 xxx but check the manpage to see what options you should use.) I've been using the hard drive for about 7 months now, and it works fine. I don't put anything I care about much on it, though. -- Marshall Pierce Harvey Mudd College '06 [EMAIL PROTECTED] On May 29, 2004, at 1:13 PM, SWIT wrote: I got this on several hds. was told once it was cuz the hd was like ata 100 and the cable or controller didnt't match . however sometime later (months) the drives died. tyring to redo a machine that had these errors that the drive died in.

You want to minimize how much the bracket grabs.

RAID-5 Failure And Booting
My RAID-5 array seems to have died this weekend. After coming back from a motorcycle-riding class, I noticed my internet connection was down. I hooked up a monitor and a keyboard to my FreeBSD box, and noticed that the OS was no longer running, that the computer had rebooted, and that the BIOS message was Insert Bootable Media In The Appropriate Drive. I'm unfamiliar with this particular message; can anyone explain what might have happened? My understanding is that, since the computer is running a RAID5 array (Adaptec 2400A card + (4) WD2000JB drives) even if one drive fails, the computer will continue running. I checked the drives and all 4 are fine; the RAID BIOS also says the array is intact. Unfortunately, Partition Magic and the FreeBSD install program both indicate that there is no partition table. How big is the partition table? Does it fit on one 8K stripe, or is it larger than 8K? I have a partion table editing program at my disposal; can anyone suggest how I might go about editing the partition table to reclaim the array? -- ._ . |\_|/__/| .--. / / \/ \ \ | Rishi Chopra |/__| oo |__ \ | http://www.ocf.berkeley.edu/~rchopra | |/_ \_/\_/ _\ | `--' | | () | || \ \/\___/\__/ // \ (_/ || | || | ||\ \ .//_/ \__// __|| __|| (() ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

huge xfree86 problems with an acer on freebsd 5.2.1

I got x working once on 4.9, same laptop when i had been messing around with 4.4.0 and ports so after a while it was a really broken install but suddenly it started working using the auto configure thing, first thing i tried to do was to write my own conf file which failed over and over again. I can't use the auto configure thing since it produced a very low resolution, even if i could figure out how to use auto configure with xfree and increase the res i doubt i'd be able to reproduce last time on 5.2.1 now because it was all a large mess of ports and bloody xfree86 guts all over the place. Anyways the situation now is that i get no errors to stdout.

socket resource / vm.zone question?
Hey List- I just installed Bind9 from ports (9.2.3) and I'm running into, I'm guessing, a resource issue. i'm setting up a slave server for a master of about 770 zones. When I pull in all the zones for the init of the slave I start getting socket.c errors and 48/Address already in use and failed setting up socket. Checking the Bind9 list I found one guy who was having issues and thought it was a TCP_WAIT issue and he was running out of sockets. His solution was to lower the MSL. (sysctl shows 3 on my box..which is 30seconds???) Now, I'm guessing I'm just running out of resources, but I can't figure out what one. Here is the output and some info of stuff I think is relevant :) I'm not seeing any errors on the master.

Re: NIS - FreeBSD server and Linux clients
This should work; I've got a Linux machine at work succesfully authenticating NIS accounts against a FreeBSD server. I believe that the differences in passwd files are strictly in the master.passwd (FreeBSD) and shadow (Linux) files; the files /etc/passwd have the same format in both OS'. I'd suspect problems in the way the clients have been configured. Check that the password and group files have been set up correctly (I screw up the sequence of plus signs and colons regularly), and that the NIS domain has been set. So how does Linux authenticate the password? 'ypwhich -m' shows passwd.byname, passwd.byuid, master.passwd.byname, master.passwd.byuid but of course there is no shadow.byname or shadow.byuid. I believe that I have the passwd and group files set up correctly on the Linux machines, and I don't really know where to look next.
