Re: GNOME Upgrade on a non-GNOME Machine
Yes. I did it a few days as /usr/ports/UPDATING suggests. It worked but it took too much time (1.5 days). This is because a lot packages depend on glib and gtk, so they have to be upgraded as well.

FreeBSD 6 on Centrino laptop : how to prolong battery life with cpufreq (like est and estctrl did)
I'm happily using FreeBSD 6 on a Centrino laptop, but wondering if anyone can explain (for dummies) how to use the new cpufreq + SpeedStep to throttle-down my CPU usage and extend battery life - the way that sysutils/est and sysutils/estctrl used to do in FreeBSD 5? (I was using est+estctrl in FreeBSD 5 wonderfully, but now they're disabled, telling me to use cpufreq instead - though I can't tell how, and didn't understand the man page.)

disk layout
Many msgs are written on disk layout before, I guess. I have still a small question. I'll install FreeBSD-6 on a 160G drive. Is it OK to just use the normal layout (/ /var /tmp /usr) or will it be smarter to create some slices extra like /home or /data ? All slices are on the same disk, but I wonder if it will be better from fragmentation or other reasons unknown to me to have more slices. -- dick -- http://nagual.st/ -- PGP/GnuPG key: F86289CE ++ Running FreeBSD 4.11-stable ++ FreeBSD 5.4 + Nai tiruvantel ar vayuvantel i Valar tielyanna nu vilja ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

nvidia + agp crashes
Im running 6.0 and I have som problems with the nvidia-drivers and AGP support. Its a SiS 661 chipset. It seems to be found: agp0: SiS 661 host to AGP bridge mem 0xe800-0xebff at device 0.0 on pci0 And this it was sysctl says: dev.agp.0.%desc: SiS 661 host to AGP bridge dev.agp.0.%driver: agp dev.agp.0.%location: slot=0 function=0 dev.agp.0.%pnpinfo: vendor=0x1039 device=0x0661 subvendor=0x1043 subdevice=0x8113 class=0x06 dev.agp.0.%parent: pci0 And a /dev/agpgart exists. The real problem appears when I try starting X with the nvidia-drivers. The SiS 661 chipset is not supported by the nvidia AGP driver (it was the same under Linux, so I used the AGPGART module there), so I should used the native FreeBSD AGP support. I have the right NvAGP option in xorg.conf and everything, but my machine reboots when X is started. No error message is logged anywhere. The driver seems to work fine with my gfx-card, a GeForce4 MX 4000, because X runs fine with AGP disabled, but with half the performance (glxgears) than I had under Linux. The problem is apparently that the nvidia-driver cant use the FreeBSD AGP driver. I've tried with 7676, 7667 and 7174 (compiled the latest with GPU_LEGACY_SUPPORT) and it is the same problem. Is there someway to at least get an error message before the reboot or something? -- regards, Jeppe W.

Re: CPU affinity in new ULE scheduler
On Wed, 9 Nov 2005, Ian Lord wrote: Are you saying that ULE is slower then 4BSD ? I'm new to this and when I compiled my kernel, it was clear ULE was a better alternative for performance then 4BSD Schedulers are one of the hardest things to do right in OS design, as they rely a great deal on how workloads behave and interact. I've seen significantly varied performance between the two -- there are a lot of anecdotal reports that ULE is better for interactive workloads on a busy desktop machine, but keep in mind that 4BSD has seen a number of improvements in the last few years also. Right now, 4BSD is considered the production scheduler for FreeBSD, although there's continuing interest in improving ULE, as well as integrating some of the techniques used in ULE into 4BSD. For example, ULE used to see a significant performance win over 4BSD on SMP as it did a better job of identifying idle CPUs and migrating work to those CPUs. 4BSD has improved a lot on this front in the last year or two, and so has caught up with some of those benefits. In the end, only by measuring will you be able to tell if ULE is better for your workload. Measurement can mean qualitative experience (everything seems snappier) or quantitative (I get 14% more transactions per second with scheduler X).

I had this on my machine.
In the multimedia/avifile Makefile there is the following:
#CODEC_PORT= ${PORTSDIR}/multimedia/win32-codecs
CODEC_PORT=${.CURDIR}/../win32-codecs
Switching the commented lines around to this
CODEC_PORT= ${PORTSDIR}/multimedia/win32-codecs
#CODEC_PORT=${.CURDIR}/../win32-codecs
stops portmanager from coredumping when scanning that port.
I'm unsure as to where the problem lies so I wouldn't entirely
recommend making the change unless you're willing to spend time fixing
things if they get broken (note: I've had no problems so far but since
I don't fully understand the way the port works I'm not going to say
this is the Right Thing To Do ;-)

That's a *really* crazy idea. Why do you want to do that? Well, I don't want to eject my running root filesystem, but I need to have the CD eject on a reboot/halt of the system.

Regards,
-cpghost.
This is a good job of providing information. FreeBSD 6.0 has exposed a few
bugs that I didn't find in 5.4, there is allready a pach submitted that may
fix this one, if it doesn't I need the same information after it is applied.
I've attached the patch in case you don't want to wait for
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=8
to be commited, just mkdir sysutils/portmanager/files, place the patch in
there then rebuild reinstall.

I had this on my machine.
In the multimedia/avifile Makefile there is the following:
#CODEC_PORT= ${PORTSDIR}/multimedia/win32-codecs
CODEC_PORT=${.CURDIR}/../win32-codecs
Switching the commented lines around to this
CODEC_PORT= ${PORTSDIR}/multimedia/win32-codecs
#CODEC_PORT=${.CURDIR}/../win32-codecs
stops portmanager from coredumping when scanning that port.
I'm unsure as to where the problem lies so I wouldn't entirely
recommend making the change unless you're willing to spend time fixing
things if they get broken (note: I've had no problems so far but since
I don't fully understand the way the port works I'm not going to say
this is the Right Thing To Do ;-)

I all ready have one pr against this port that looks like it will be pending
until maintainer time out. Saw this a while bck and thought I had
portmanager working around it. Mind testing the attached patch and seeing if
it helps?

Getting rid of /dev and mount entry after unplugging mounted USB memory stick
Hi list, Every now and then I forget to unmount my USB memory stick. This becomes a problem because every time I do it, I am left with a bogus mount and device entry. umount -f makes the whole machine reboot instantly. From the googling that I have done, I have concluded that this is normal. (But just to be sure, I will paste my dmesg output below). Is there a way I can get rid of the bogus mount / device entry other than rebooting, or will I really have to teach myself to unmount my USB device everytime before I unplug it? Note that integrity of the data or data-transfer speed of the USB device is not critical as it is actually an MP3 player that I copy a bunch of mp3s to every now and then. So sacrifices can be made if neccesary. Below is the dmesg output of all USB-related devices (da0 through da3 are flashcard readers, haven't actually done anything with those so they can probably be ignored). Output from plugging in the mp3player is at the bottom. ohci0: OHCI (generic) USB controller mem 0xc9003000-0xc9003fff irq 21 at device 2.0 on pci0 ohci0: [GIANT-LOCKED] usb0: OHCI version 1.0, legacy support usb0: SMM does not respond, resetting usb0: OHCI (generic) USB controller on ohci0 usb0: USB revision 1.0 uhub0: nVidia OHCI root hub, class 9/0, rev 1.00/1.00, addr 1 uhub0: 10 ports with 10 removable, self powered ehci0: EHCI (generic) USB 2.0 controller mem 0xfeb0-0xfeb000ff irq 22 at device 2.1 on pci0 ehci0: [GIANT-LOCKED] usb1: EHCI version 1.0 usb1: companion controller, 4 ports each: usb0 usb1: EHCI (generic) USB 2.0 controller on ehci0 usb1: USB revision 2.0 uhub1: nVidia EHCI root hub, class 9/0, rev 2.00/1.00, addr 1 uhub1: 10 ports with 10 removable, self powered uhub2: vendor 0x03eb Standard USB Hub, class 9/0, rev 1.10/3.00, addr 2 uhub2: 4 ports with 4 removable, self powered umass0: ICSI IC1100 V2.5b, rev 1.10/2.5b, addr 3 ums0: Logitech USB-PS/2 Optical Mouse, rev 2.00/21.00, addr 4, iclass 3/1 ums0: 7 buttons and Z dir. da0 at umass-sim0 bus 0 target 0 lun 0 da0: ICSI IC1100CF 2.5b Removable Direct Access SCSI-0 device da0: 1.000MB/s transfers da0: Attempt to query device size failed: NOT READY, Medium not present da1 at umass-sim0 bus 0 target 0 lun 1 da1: ICSI IC1100MS 2.5b Removable Direct Access SCSI-0 device da1: 1.000MB/s transfers da1: Attempt to query device size failed: NOT READY, Medium not present da2 at umass-sim0 bus 0 target 0 lun 2 da2: ICSI IC1100MMC/SD 2.5b Removable Direct Access SCSI-0 device da2: 1.000MB/s transfers da2: Attempt to query device size failed: NOT READY, Medium not present da3 at umass-sim0 bus 0 target 0 lun 3 da3: ICSI IC1100SM 2.5b Removable Direct Access SCSI-0 device da3: 1.000MB/s transfers da3: Attempt to query device size failed: NOT READY, Medium not present (da0:umass-sim0:0:0:0): READ CAPACITY.

Removing pre-6.0 libraries
Greetings! I've done a buildworld/kernel/installworld/mergemaster update from 5.4-STABLE to 6.0-RELEASE. Everything went without a hitch. I'm in the process of completely rebuilding all my installed ports (portmanager -u -f). After that, I'll be removing 'options COMPAT_FREEBSD5' from my kernel. Once that is done, is there a command or some other way to remove all the 5.x compatibility libraries from /usr/lib and other places? Is there anything else I'll need to do to make sure I'm not still dependent on 5.x libraries?

ntp handling in 6.0
Hello, Has ntp handling changed in 6.0-RELEASE? I've been through the handbook and /etc/defaults/rc.conf but haven't found the answer to this. I've got a machine acting as an ntp server for a network. When i run ntpdate -b IP from another machine i get the error No servers suitable for synchronization found. Ntpd from these other boxes shows the same. From the local ntp server to the ntp servers on the internet works fine. The local ntp server's configuration is as follows: /etc/rc.conf ntpdate_enable=YES ntpdate_flags=-b servername ntpd_enable=YES ntpd_flags=-c /etc/ntp.conf -p /var/run/ntpd.pid ntp.conf server servername prefer server servername servername driftfile /etc/ntp.drift restrict 192.168.9.0 mask 255.255.255.0 notrust nomodify notrap and on client boxes: /etc/rc.conf ntpdate_enable=YES ntpdate_flags=-b local ntp server IP ntpd_enable=YES ntpd_flags=-c /etc/ntp.conf -p /var/run/ntpd.pid /etc/ntp.conf server local-ntp-server-ip prefer driftfile /etc/ntp.drift Thanks.

pflog trouble?
Today I compiled some kde stuff for a few hours on my fbsd-6.0 box and when I gave the shutdown -p now command it took minutes to complete the shutdown process. The machine seemed to hang on the shutdown of the pflog device. The porcess /was/ completed succesfully in the end but I wonder what happened.. After starting up again and (again) a shutdown -p now all went well and fast.

If I were to acquire such software, I'd rather have to add the compat libs as as port (and re-add the options flag to the kernel) then have them as legacy libs hanging around after an upgrade. That does give me an idea, however. I can probably use the contents of the compat5 port to find out what libs are specific to that version.

Lockup/Halt issues on FreeBSD-6.0-RELEASE
#uname -a FreeBSD gimpy.tcbug.org 6.0-RELEASE FreeBSD 6.0-RELEASE #1: Fri Nov 11 20:00:32 CST 2005 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC i386 dmesg attached This box has run 5.4-RELEASE-p(x) for quite some time without issue. I cvsupped it to 6.0-RC1 and that worked fine. I cvsupped to 6.0-RELEASE and that's when I started getting strange behaviour. I run Xorg and fluxbox-devel with a large variety of apps. A typical mix is gaim, linux-opera, kate, kmail, xmms, xchat, gimp and a half dozen xterms for good measure. Every once in a while the box will hang in a very strange way. xmms plays music, irc stuffs scrolls on xchat, compiles on an xterm keep going, and the mouse pointer works. The mouse buttons won't do anything, the keyboard won't do anything, I can't switch to a different virtual terminal, nothing is logged, I can't get to a debugger. If I hit the power button (this is an ATX system) the box immediately shuts off. On reboot it doesn't need to do an fsck of any kind nor does it complain about filesystems being unmounted improperly. This sort of leads me to believe that somehow parts of shutdown are being run (or insert your theoretical theory here) I'm willing to do trouble-shooting on this if anyone is interested in looking at it. I may be able to get a serial console when the hang occurs. (haven't tried that yet) -- Thanks, Josh Paetzel Copyright (c) 1992-2005 The FreeBSD Project.

kdeinit stays up after logout

I resolve by killall -KILL kdeinit and everything is fine until it does it again. I haven't found the cause or a real solution so far. I was wondering if there's a script kdm runs at logout that I can add killall -KILL kdeinit inside. Anyone know?

Now if I can just get qemu to emulate my Apple IIGS :-) Tim ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[patch] Re: Loading mfsroot read-write on FreeBSD 6.0-RELEASE
On 11/12/05 21:02 Dinesh Nair said the following: how does one specify a read/write mount of mfsroot in 6.0 in the bootloader ? apparently, the behaviour of vfs_mountroot_try() has changed in 6.0. previously, if the root filesystem was mounted from a memory disk, as would be the case with an mfsroot.gz, it would be mounted R/W while other fs types would be mounted R/O before /etc/rc scripts upgraded the mount to R/W. however, in 6.0, all root filesystems are mounted R/O. the following patch mounts all root filesystems R/W. it's a quick and dirty fix however, for a cleaner fix would be to duplicate 5.x behaviour of only mounting memory disks R/W and other disks R/O. the kernel needs to be rebuilt for this patch to take effect. is there enough interest in having memory root file systems mounted R/W at boot ? if there is, i could put in a little bit more effort into duplicating 5.x behaviour on this and submitting it as a PR to 6.0. --- CUT HERE --- --- sys/kern/vfs_mount.c.orig Sat Nov 12 23:22:07 2005 +++ sys/kern/vfs_mount.cSat Nov 12 23:59:50 2005 @@ -1297,7 +1297,7 @@ strcpy(path, ROOTNAME); error = kernel_vmount( - MNT_RDONLY | MNT_ROOTFS, + MNT_ROOTFS, fstype, vfsname, fspath, /, from, path, --- CUT HERE --- -- Regards, /\_/\ All dogs go to heaven.

copying standard input to standard output
Hi there, I am wanting to copy standard output to a file. I know that 'tee' will do this fine. blah | tee it but I am find that on some occasions processes will not output when pipping to tee. other than screen what are some applications that could capture standard output and dump to a file? cheers, Noah ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Could be that the output you're looking at is not stdout but stderr.

It'll capture stderr, too. It may be that the programs you're using are sending to stderr as Malcolm suggests. It may also be because some programs handle stdout to a terminal differently than stdout to a file or a pipe. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
In a bit of a bind - DNS problems and ipfw
Hello
I am having problems with my FreeBSD 5.4 gateway/firewall. When I enable a
custom firewall (ipfw) or the Simple firewall through rc.firewall my
clients are unable to resolve DNS when DNS does work with the Open ruleset
that is provide by rc.firewall. I create the custom firewall couple years
ago and they work fine under 4.11 but after the upgrade I have not been able
to get them to work.
I sure I am doing something stupid but I am not smart enough to solve it at
the moment.
Thank you
Aaron Siegel
Custom firewall rules
#Allow DNS
$cmd 019 allow tcp from any to any 53 out via $pif
$cmd 018 allow udp from any to any 53 out via $pif
/etc/rc.conf
gateway_enable=YES
firewall_enable=YES
firewall_type=open
natd_enable=YES
natd_interface=dc0
ifconfig_dc0=192.168.0.2 #public interface
ifconfig_fxp0=192.168.245.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 #private interface
/etc/rc.conf
I have commented out the following lines
#${fwcmd} add deny all from any to 192.168.0.0/16 via ${oif}

Printing from Solaris to FreeBSD via Cups
Hi! I would like to print from a Solaris 10 workstation (192.168.10.3) to my FreeBSD server (192.168.10.1). My idea was to use Cups and ipp protocol on both machines since I have already got Cups up and running on my FreeBSD machine. Cups on Solaris seems to be up to (I can access http://localhost:631) but whatever printer configuration I try to set, I keep receiving Send Error: 7 code=403 (Forbidden) when I try to print the test page. Perhaps I don't use the correct ipp URI ? Perhaps my cupsd.conf is missing something? Do I need to set some kind of authentication from Solaris to FreeBSD? Error logs don't show anything but a message about sending the above error. Thanks for your help or links to some howto's , Uli. Here come two of my configs: /etc/printcap - # This file was automatically generated by cupsd(8) from the # /usr/local/etc/cups/printers.conf file.
