Re: Prism GT Chipset, hostap?
Hello For Prism2.5 based cards you can use native wi driver, hostap works well, except bug in tx rate detection - it's fixed to 2Mbit/s more info there http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-current/2004-May/027476.html For PrismGT there is non-oficial driver from Green http://green.homeunix.org/~green/prism54-driver/pff/ just compile it, it creates if_pff.ko module, then load it I found the problem, that if I load module in already running system, it works well, but if I load it at the boot (if_pff_load="YES" in /boot/loader.conf), I got panic (something with locking, i'll give some info to green after debugging) however hostap works well I have already compiled version on FreeBSD 5.3-STABLE #0: Tue Nov 16 09:56:37 CET 2004 you can get it on (also with firmware - see Makefile) in one tgz http://bsd.mikulas.com/wifi/pff-all.tgz Jiri Nikolas Britton wrote: Do the Prism GT chipsets support hostap mode in freebsd (does freebsd even support this chipset?)? and are there any other chipsets besides Prism 2/2.5/3? that work in hostap mode?

There are two different ways of getting news from upstream. The first is to have them send everything to you. This requires some kind of agreement with the upstream-server. The other is to pull articles one by one from the upstream just like a normal nntp-client. Most nntp-servers can be configured to pull data from upstream just as if it was a client which means that you do not need any sort of special agreement with upstream. I am not familiar with INN, but I feel fairly certain that it can be configured to pull articles from upstream. You might also wish to take a look at the leafnode or nntpcache ports, both of which seem to have been designed exactly to do what you need. Dnews can also be configured to do what you want, but since that is a commercial program (with a free download and a free trial period) you might not want it. -- Erik Trulsson [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Compiling FreeBSD 4.10 kernel with gcc native and gcc-3.4.3
Dear FreeBSD people, I had problems in my ATHLON-XP with 5.3 Release. While compiling the kernel to use NVIDIA drivers I opened emacs and everything freezed 2 times! The third time I didn't touch emacs so the kernel compilation finished without everything to freeze! Thus I decided to install FreeBSD 4.10! Everything was working fine! I then recompiled the kernel such that I can use the nvidia drivers.

Good General Purpose Text Markup Language
I'm looking for a good way to be able to markup text strings stored in a database for displaying text in bold or other highlights and links to other docs. I'm thinking some kind of sgml or xml markup language would be best. I want a generic way to add it so it can be converted to many other forms besides html. I'll need paragraphs, bold, italics, superscripts for TM, and hyperlinks, but probably not much more. I've thought about using a minimal subset of xhtml so it can easily be converted to other forms, but I've heard of linuxdoc and whatever freebsd uses might be better.

Yes, devfs is a virtual filesystem, it takes no space on any real device like a hard disk. All files under /dev are a special type of file called character or block device files and have no data in themselves, but are basically symbolic names for various devices in your system.

4.10, USB driver problems
For several months I've been using an external USB hard drive, under 4.10 and the EHCI driver. It's worked perfectly for months. As of a month ago, when I swapped the drive for another one, the drive has not worked properly. A few days ago, my employer went on-site (the server is colocated) to swap the drive. The new drive had the same problem, and rebooting the server did not correct the problem. It was also reported that the last time he unplugged the drive (the fs on the drive was not mounted) the system crashed; he has since not plugged in the drive. Now the details... dmesg shows that it found a mass storage device and properly identifies it, and usbdevs also reports the drive; however, attempting to mount the drive causes "mount: /dev/da0s1e: Device not configured" and the message "umass0: BBB reset failed, TIMEOUT" appears in the dmesg. The external drive uses device usb4, since usb0 through usb3 are reported as USB1. It was suggested that having both the USB1 (uhci) and USB2 (ehci) driver may be causing confusion in the kernel. I find this unlikely, though, since it's been working for months. Any thoughts or troubleshooting tips? __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail - now with 250MB free storage.

Exactly. CDs that are burned with the 'audio' option SHOULD be readable in every CD player. 'data' CDs with MP3 files MAY be readable in modern CD- or DVD-Players with MP3 capability as well. Since this is not standardized, you should consider using ISO9660 with RockRidge and Joliet extentions when making the CD image: $ mkisofs -v -r -T -J -o /var/tmp/mp3_1.iso /path/to/mp3s # burncd -f /dev/acd0 -s 4 data /var/tmp/mp3_1.iso fixate keeping the hierarchy below /path/to/mp3s as flat as possible, using .mp3 extensions for the mp3 files, not putting too many files per folder and using conservative sampling rates that are recognized by most hardware players (128 kbps, 44000). > - John.

For this to work, you need to add device atapicam to your kernel config file, recompile, reinstall and reboot the kernel. Once you've done that, you should see a device 'cd0' in dmesg and /dev. You can try burncd on /dev/cd0, or cdrecord with the appropriate SCSI ID: # cdrecord -scanbus should then give you the correct SCSI ID a,b,c to use. # cdrecord -v dev=a,b,c speed=4 mp3_1.iso for data CDs. # cdrecord -v dev=a,b,c speed=1 -audio track*.wav for audio CDs.

sharing printers with Mac - Rendezvous?
I've been trying to find information on how to setup printer sharing so that I can print from a Mac to a FreeBSD machine on the same LAN. Everything I find seems to revolve around the announcement for Rendezvous, but it's mostly PR and little actual information. The question I can't seem to find an answer to is: What's the easiest way to setup a printer (USB connected to FreeBSD) so I can print from a Mac to it? (the FreeBSD machine has a static IP, if that helps) Any help, including good pointers? I'm familiar with CUPS from Mac OS X so I'm going to try to explore that as a possibility.

Are you saying you plug the card in > the SanDisk reader and *then* boot? It won't work "on-the-fly"? No, my reader has to be plugged in at boot, but inserting the card works on the fly. Your device may be different, but mine has always been /dev/da0s1 for the card itself. The /dev partition is pretty manageable in 5.3, so you might try an ls /dev and look for /dev/da0*. It might just jump out at you. I do an ls before inserting the card, and I see da0, but not da0s1. After inserting the card, da0s1 is there. Sometimes it's instantaneous, other times it takes a couple attempts to mount, but it works. Perhaps someone else on the list will know how to get the reader detected on the fly without a reboot, or perhaps the command to check the reader for an inserted card? I had thought camcontrol was it, but it doesn't seem to recognize that the card was removed.

External USB Harddrive
Hi, I am using Asus A7N8X Rev 1.06 motherboard on FreeBSD 5.3 release. I want to use my USB hard drive. It would be the first USB device I use. What is the procedure?

bad display name/xserver question
I'm running 5.3-RELEASE-p2. I am unable to open a terminal window in either windowmaker or the default twm window manager. No error messages go to the log files. However after x crashes there will be output messages to the screen along these lines: Xauth: (argu):1: bad display name "nedsbsd.cox.net : 0" in "list" command The nedsbsd is something I'm willing to change if needed. I entered it months ago when I initially installed FreeBSD didn't know what the install program was asking for when it asked for a display name. I figured I could change it later. I neglected to change it when it seamed to not cause problems. Any suggestions will be appreciated. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
xorg/dri-6.2_1,2 upgrade problems
Thanks again. I'll try the portmanager. I read through a discussion of it in freebsd-questions, but didn't have a command example to try. (Thanks for your command suggestion for portmanager.) For portupgrade I have paper copies of the man page and paper copy of an article which I cross reference before running it. You are right on dependencies not being built. I had to pkg_delete qt and rebuild it from ports in order to upgrade kde. Before seeing your message I ran portupgrade on xorg using the -frR switch. X seams to be working now, somewhat. I use windowmaker as the desktop windowmanager for the root. Entering the command "startx" as root, windowmaker starts up and looks fine. However, I can't open a terminal window in it. The default twm windowmanager crashes. No error messages go to the log but I get a line: Xauth: (argv):1 bad display name "nedsbsd.cox.net:0" in "list" command and two others of like nature as messages after x crashes. I entered "nedsbsd" as a display name when I initially installed FreeBSD several months ago. I had no clue what it the install program was asking for at that time and figured I could change it later. It didn't seam to cause any problems so I neglected to change it. I generally cvsup my ports and fetch the index right before I do any upgrading. Even if it's just the next day. Never know when something new is going to pop in that could cause a make to crash. I took down the optimizations you suggested. The lines currently have no meaning to me, so I'll need to read up a bit. I've been running FreeBSD for less than a year and I've had no computer experience or training outside very basic MS windows. So many things are new and many are incomprehensible at first look. Dispite that I feel far more comfortable and secure using FreeBSD than I ever did using Windows. That's why I'll keep plugging away. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

I did: pkg_add -r courier-imap However, when I do: /usr/local/libexec/courier-imap/imapd.rc start (as the courier-imap manual instructs), it gives me: /usr/local/etc/courier-imap/imapd does not exist, forgot make install-configure? Which is odd, because imapd actually seems to be in /usr/local/bin/imapd, and I would assume that courier-imap was configured properly when it was prepared as a port. I would just change the relevant line in imapd.rc, but I don't want to go mucking around with something I don't fully understand -- especially because I need this server to be extremely secure and "by the book." Also, is there a way to manage courier-imap via Webmin? Sorry if the answer is obvious or really common -- posting really is my last resort after searching this list and the web for help. Outside of this problem, I'm loving FreeBSD. It reminds me of my days running NetBSD/mac68k on my Mac IIsi. :) Thanks in advance! - ben ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Actually, all the responses I've seen so far have been incorrect, or haven't mentioned the real reason. FreeBSD 4.10 is using gcc 2.95 because later versions of g++ produce incompatible object code, so we cannot update without forcing every 4.x user to recompile every piece of C++ code on their system. That's not acceptable in a -stable branch. Compiling the base system with a version of GCC other than that which is shipped with the base system (i.e. GCC 2.95 for 4.x) is not supported, and if you manage to get it working you're on your own support-wise (i.e. do not submit bug reports against your custom system, because they're probably your own bugs and you'll waste developer time trying to follow them up). If you think you really need a version of FreeBSD compiled with GCC 3.x, consider updating to FreeBSD 5.3. Kris pgpMRXoxHCGn6.pgp Description: PGP signature

Did you look in the /usr/local/etc/courier-imap directory? It will contain a number of *.dist files that you will have to copy and modify to configure your installation. For example, if you want to serve imap you will have to rename imapd.dist to imapd and edit the resulting /usr/local/etc/courier-imap/imapd file so that it is configured the way you want. The file is heavily commented and the necessary changes should be trivial. > Which is odd, because imapd actually seems to be in > /usr/local/bin/imapd, and I would assume that courier-imap was That is the executable. > configured properly when it was prepared as a port.

How To Make Vinum Keep Config Across Reboots?
Since an upgrade from 4.9 to 4.10, I've had problems with vinum. The basic problem is that upon reboot, two of my vinum drives show up as "referenced" and thus create the associated chaos. I've tried many things and fiddled around quite a bit so I can't say exactly what I've done. I can include all of the entries in the history file since Oct. 31 if that's a help but it would be a long list. So prior to digging that deep, I will describe where I stand currently and where I want to finish. Currently, I have one vinum volume that I use for /usr. Fortunately this volume is up and running or I would really be in a mess. Here's the 'vinum list' output in this state: blacklamb# vinum vinum -> list 2 drives: D disk1 State: up Device /dev/da0s1h Avail: 0/8383 MB (0%) D disk2 State: up Device /dev/da1s1h Avail: 0/8383 MB (0%) 1 volumes: V usr State: up Plexes: 1 Size: 16 GB 1 plexes: P usr.p0 S State: up Subdisks: 2 Size: 16 GB 2 subdisks: S usr.p0.s0 State: up PO:0 B Size: 8383 MB S usr.p0.s1 State: up PO: 256 kB Size: 8383 MB I want to add another volume and mount it on /ftp. After creating the volume, vinum sees it and it appears OK as indicated in this output: vinum -> list 5 drives: D disk1 State: up Device /dev/da0s1h Avail: 0/8383 MB (0%) D disk2 State: up Device /dev/da1s1h Avail: 0/8383 MB (0%) D ftp1 State: up Device /dev/ad0s1h Avail: 0/76319 MB (0%) D ftp2 State: up Device /dev/ad1s1h Avail: 0/76319 MB (0%) D ftp3 State: up Device /dev/da3s1h Avail: 0/114473 MB (0%) 2 volumes: V usr State: up Plexes: 1 Size: 16 GB V ftp State: up Plexes: 1 Size:260 GB 2 plexes: P usr.p0 S State: up Subdisks: 2 Size: 16 GB P ftp.p0 C State: up Subdisks: 3 Size:260 GB 5 subdisks: S usr.p0.s0 State: up PO:0 B Size: 8383 MB S usr.p0.s1 State: up PO: 256 kB Size: 8383 MB S ftp.p0.s0 State: up PO:0 B Size: 74 GB S ftp.p0.s1 State: up PO: 74 GB Size: 74 GB S ftp.p0.s2 State: up PO: 149 GB Size:111 GB Next I 'quit' the vinum command line and fsck my newly created volume. It finishes successfully and I mount it: blacklamb# df Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Avail Capacity Mounted on /dev/da0s1a 30235010208817607437%/ /dev/vinum/usr 16639674 5433762 987473935%/usr procfs 4 4 0 100%/proc /dev/vinum/ftp 265119539 119729707 13213385648%/ftp I recheck with the 'vinum list' command and the output is the same as above.

Well, as far as hardware goes for my tri-monitor, I usually have a Radeon 7500 and an geforce2 mx400 (or some other cruddy pci card) though I'm using a matrox G450 for the primary right now.

I'd like to say that this is a trivial thing to do, but I kind of doubt that it is. I know of no easy way to do this because X as it is now, assigns a "head" to a screen (where by head I mean a video card output) and in doing so, makes the "head" atomic in a sense. What it sounds like you'd like to do is create something smaller than this and assign it to a screen. It might be substantially easier to just purchase more monitors or learn to use virtual desktops.

On 5.3, see 'man MAKEDEV' and 'man devfs', and find out that MAKEDEV is deprecated by devfs. Ah, I guess this is a place where the documentation hasn't yet been updated. I didn't think to check the manpage until just after I sent my message. FWIW, as a layman/FreeBSD newbie, I'd make a suggestion that the manpage for MAKEDEV make it a bit more clear that having 'devfs' means that MAKEDEV commands are no longer necessary because devfs will take care of it automatically. I found myself trying to read 'man devfs' to figure out a way to manually make cuaa0.

FreeBSD 5.3 - Write failure on transfer
Hi, I am a newbie to this list and I hope I am posting to the correct list - apologies if I am off target. I am installing FreeBSD 5.3 on a hp netserver LC2000r. The box is a dual processor P3 with three scsi2 drives running in a raid1 configuration with one hot spare. We have six of these boxes. Three of them are running FreeBSD 4.8 or 4.9 without a hitch. I decided to install 5.3 from CD on a fourth box and I am having a problem. I go through the install process. When it goes to write the file structure to the drives it does this in a around 1 second - this seems very fast. Then it starts copying from the CD and I quickly get the following error: "Write failure on transfer! (wrote -1 bytes of 1425408 bytes)" I click ok and the next error message is: "unable to transfer the base distribution from acd0, do you want to try to retrieve it again?". So this has started me troubleshooting the possible causes of the problem: 1) First stop was to suspect the freebsd iso I had burnt was suspect. So I re burnt the cd and the problem persisted. I then suspected the ISO I had downloaded was corrupted. So I downloaded it again, burnt the cd but the problem still persisted. 2) I then suspected the second copy could have come from a cache and therefore may have the same problem as the first copy - so I checked the md5 signature but it lines up with the original from freebsd.org 3) I suspected the CD Rom drive - so I swapped it with one of our other Netserver boxes - problem still persisted. 4)I suspected a drive formatting problem - so I went back into the SCSI software, redid the raid drives and reformatted them - problem still persisted. 5) I suspected another hardware problem - so I pulled out FreeBSD 4.9 to see if that would install - and it did install without any errors. That sort of discounts there being any hardware problems. It points to something specific to freebsd 5.3. So this is where I have got to - FreeBSD 4.9 will install without errors but 5.3 will not install. I suspect the problem has to do with the initial setting up of the file structure - 5.3 is doing this in about one second whereas 4.9 takes closer to a minute to do this. Any thoughts or suggestion?
