If you set 'sysctl hw.snd.verbose=2' manually or have 'hw.snd.verbose=2' in /etc/sysctl.conf, you'll get more info out of 'cat /dev/sndstat', which someone might need if you're still having problems with sound. > > > the drive is a 120 gb hitachi deskstar .. linux (several of teh most > > > recent distributions, ubuntu/centos/fedora sees it as a 120 gb, as > > > dose solaris v10/v11 but freebsd calls it a 114 gb drive > > > > That's quite simple, freebsd calls it for what it is a 114 Gb disk.

I think you're perhaps referring to what df tells you about free space? Remember that UFS reserves, by default, 8% of a slice for system use or overcommitment by root. So a 120GB drive, all allocated to one slice, newfs'd, you'd expect df to show you around 110GB. If you actually fill it up, from a root process, you'd see the oft-dreaded '108% capacity' :) Assuming for example that your disk is /dev/ad0, show us the output of 'fdisk -s ad0'. Then, for any slice/s (X) having FreeBSD type 0xa5, show result of 'bsdlabel ad0sX'. The sector maths should then work out. > could this be a "lba" confusion/issue between teh drive/bios/freebsd > interpretation ?? it is a term i recall from earlier, when thes kinds > of drives first appeared and casued significant consternations for > everybody not just freebsd. it is a problems as far as i have several > of thes drives to be putting into several 'server' machines where > this kind of freespace 'loss' would become an issue --- hardware > density, as in drivers per terabyte leading to power consumption/space > and heating conciderations in raid arrays (five and ten drive rack)s >From memory, all disks over ~8GB need LBA addressing. It's been a long while since the LBA vs CHS setup was an issue, which is why on modern disks you should always ignore sysinstall's archaic whinging about the geometry, and just use what's originally detected, ie leave it alone. > this is not a 'real' problem as 95 gb (whats left after install from a > 114 gb start point) is more than enough for this boxes task-load. it is > that i find this a bit confusing/interesting, esp given that fresbie > v1.1 aslo sees this as a 120 gb drive ??? just interested in fiding > out what is going on and if this is a pointer to future hardware > mis-identification --- i understand the difference between "real" > gigabytes and "marketing department" gigabytes The fdisk and bsdlabel outputs will tell the true story. If, as you suggested earlier, you did enter a different geometry, you might have lost some real space, so also show us 'fdisk ad0 | grep cylinders' cheers, Ian ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
7.1-PRELEASE sporadically panicking with fatal trap 12
I'm running 7.1-PRERELEASE, with /usr/src and /usr/ports last csup-ed
just a few days ago. After being up for about a day or so the system
will panic because of a page fault. I'm not completely sure, but it
seems that the system is more stable when gdm and gnome are disabled in
rc.conf. At least it stayed up for several days when I did that.
I've run memtest several times, so I'm pretty confident it's not a
memory problem. Also the stack trace is always the same, so I'm
thinking it's not hardware related.
I've attached a stack trace from kgdb, and the output from dmesg. I'd
appreciate any help you could give me with this.

There's a whole host of things that have given me that issue - bad cd drive, scratched disk, etc. More importantly, I've seen sysinstall never actually format the disk, so then it can't write to it. The way I fixed it is by hitting "w" (write) before "q" (quit) in both the fdisk and partition pages of sysinstall. I've seen this behavior on both 6.2 and 7.0, and I've never paid enough attention to repeat it or figure out what I did wrong - I just use the write command manually and things seem happier.

OpenGL things crash X in FB7-Stable, nVidia Card
Hi all, I have a FreeBSD 7 Stable box with a nVidia 6150 Go Graphic Card. Everything was OK sometime before, but after a series updated on ports, ( I am not sure about the time, I have not use OpenGL stuff for long time) running a program with OpenGL will cause the X crashed. The only errors in Xorg.0.log are listed below, which I think is irrelevant to this problem. (EE) Error compiling keymap (server-0) (EE) XKB: Couldn't compile keymap There are also two warnings: (WW) OS did not count PCI devices, guessing wildly (WW) NVIDIA: No matching Device section for instance (BusID PCI:0:10:3) found Nothing found in messages. The last crash is when I choose a OpenGL screensaver. The ports is updated nearly daily, and I think this may happen after sometime after I updated the latest nVidia-driver.

FreeBSD 7.0 installation problems.Please help!
Good morning!

Re: installing 7.0-release from .isos: endless mfi status msgs on console

What are exactly those messages? I have the same server with FreeBSD 7.0-Release too and I don't get any annoying messages. I would be tempted to say that there is something wrong...

Thanks Mel, "gateway_enable" was what I was missing. I usually use sudo for eding system files, but in this particular instant I was lazy and had set the permissions so I could edit rc.conf without it. :( As I mentioned, I got into this fix because my root partition is full. This is how my 30G drive is partitioned: $df -h /dev/ad0s1a496M493M-37M 108%/ devfs 1.0K1.0K 0B 100%/dev /dev/ad0s1e496M3.2M453M 1%/tmp /dev/ad0s1f 24G6.1G 16G28%/usr /dev/ad0s1d1.4G659M690M49%/var fdescfs1.0K1.0K 0B 100%/dev/fd But for the life of me, I can't figure out what is taking up all the space on root. See: $ sudo du -hs boot cdrom home lib libexec rescue sbin bin compat dist etc lib proc root 91Mboot 2.0Kcdrom 0Bhome 5.4Mlib 170Klibexec 3.6Mrescue 5.0Msbin 986Kbin 0Bcompat 2.0Kdist 2.1Metc 5.4Mlib 2.0Kproc 52Kroot For totals: $ sudo du -hc -depth=1 boot cdrom home lib libexec rescue sbin bin compat dist etc lib proc root 91Mboot 2.0Kcdrom 0Bhome 5.4Mlib 170Klibexec 3.6Mrescue 5.0Msbin 986Kbin 0Bcompat 2.0Kdist 2.1Metc 5.4Mlib 2.0Kproc 52Kroot 114Mtotal It looks as though there is 375MB "hidden" somewhere... but where? -- Colin Brace Amsterdam http://www.lim.nl ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Problem with today's modular software: they start with the modules
and never get to the software part.

Iterate through directories and search into files
Hi everyone, I have a list of directories: - a..z and 2003..2008 ...inside of a single directory. Can someone advise what the shortest shell pipeline would be to search for two words (on two separate lines) within all files located only the alpha directories, and then print the filename to STDOUT? I know this is very efficient, but since I don't need to do this often, it will be easier than maintaining but yet another Perl script.

Re: How to select/choose new NIC under FreeBSD?
Hi mate, You should install the hardware, then recompile the kernel, if you already use a customized one. Then you should edit /etc/rc.conf and set there to use the new NIC instead of the old one. The other option is to use sysinstall program to set this, but I preffer the manual interaction. If you have customized firewall you might also set it in the firewall config.

gateway NAT settings lost
Hi all, I recently ran out of diskspace on the root partition of my FreeBSD 7 box, which serves as a home server/gateway. As a result, when I went to edit my rc.conf file with nano earlier this moth, it couldn't save the changes and the file was written zero-length. Alas, my nightly backup subsequently archived this, and I've now lost the original. I only realized this when I needed to reboot last night. I have now been trying to rebuild my rc.conf settings from scratch. Most things work again now, except I still can't access the web from my LAN clients. 1.) I can get a dhcp lease from the server. 2.) DNS works, ie, $ dig cern.ch returns a DNS record 3.) but $ lynx cern.ch doesn't work. Here is my rc.conf now: check_quotas="NO" cron_enable="YES" hostname="venus" inetd_enable="NO" linux_enable="YES" moused_enable="YES" sshd_enable="YES" usbd_enable="YES" lighttpd_enable="YES" postfix_enable="YES" sendmail_enable="NO" sendmail_submit_enable="NO" sendmail_outbound_enable="NO" sendmail_msp_queue_enable="NO" dovecot_enable="YES" rpcbind_enable="YES" nfs_server_enable="YES" mountd_flags="-r" # WLAN interface ifconfig_fxp0="DHCP" # LAN interface ifconfig_rl0="inet 192.168.1.1 netmask 255.255.255.0" # WIFI interface ifconfig_ath0="" smartd_enable="YES" pf_enable="YES" pflog_enable="YES" dhcpd_enable="YES" /usr/local/sbin/dnrd -s 208.67.222.222 postgresql_enable="YES" obspamd_enable="YES" obspamdlog_enable="YES" dovecot_enable="YES" rsyncd_enable="YES" rtadvd_enable="YES" I am using PF for NAT, and have the following rule: [...] ext_if = "fxp0" [...] nat on $ext_if from !($ext_if) to any -> ($ext_if) [...] I must be missing something obvious, but what?

If you need the patch, let me know. | | However, I don't suggest running jails on top of unionfs where you need | decent stability (i.e. in production). I am writing thesis at the moment which | also covers this topic. We also stumbled upon these issues: | | - socket file bug, mentioned before, still present in 7-STABLE, no ideas | when it will be MFCed; | | - "mv" bug (see freebsd-fs archives for August 2008, me and my friend posted | a few posts there) which causes troubles when moving directories (files | would appear as gone and then reappear again) which exist or don't exist | on lower and upper levels; | | - another "mv" bug which I discovered yesterday and seems to be very strange | and hard to replay - I didn't even mess with the lower level, it seems that | also just the upper layer can behave strangely sometimes (erros like | "mv: invalid argument" when simply trying to move a big (>10 GB) directory - | the error was gone after I restarted the jail (i.e. also remounting the | unionfs); | | - strange behaviour of some applications (apache in my case) not "seeing" the | lower layer (/etc/hosts most notably) - we had to do "touch" (and then copy | to all jails on change) on files we _really_ need to be visible. However, | after we "fscked" our partition with unionfs directories, we weren't able | to reproduce this error; | | - UFS filesystem would get to inconsistent state (we don't know exactly when) | so some commands would behave strangely and fsck (see above) is needed in | single user mode; | | - _most notably_: there hasn't been a single reply to our unionfs related | problem reports and posts to freebsd-fs list. So I guess that people who | are in charge for unionfs in FreeBSD aren't really responsive and that | the future of unionfs in FreeBSD isn't really bright. It's a pity, though, | since this is a very useful feature, especially for jailed systems. However, | hope remains, that things will be fixed at least in 8.0 if not in 7.1. I think the problem is not so much lack of interest amongst available people, as lack of available people interested in work on that bit of filesystem code. Problems with unionfs and generally with VFS related stuff have been around for quite some time. | So, you can see that there are (still) many issues with unionfs on FreeBSD. | Please let me know if you are able to solve your problem. Or else we can make | this list a little longer. :) Having just gone through an attempt to set up a series of jails using unionfs layering, here's another annoyance. What I wanted to do was have a 'basejail' + unionfs overlay setup, but with various directories (/home, /usr/ports, /usr/src, and so forth) shared (ie. nullfs mounted) between all the jails and the base system. However an fstab.jails.jail0 like this: /jails/basejail /jails/jail0 unionfs rw,noatime,below,copymode=transparent,whiteout=whenneeded 0 0 /usr/ports /jails/jail0/usr/ports nulls rw 0 0 fails to work saying 'no such file or directory: /jails/jail0/usr/ports' irrespective of the existence of that directory in either layer of the unionfs. Seems it's impossible to have a nullfs mountpoint on top of a unionfs filesystem. At least, that's as far as I got when playing with this: press of time led me to implement a work around. If anyone knows how to get such a setup working as I originally intended I'd be very glad of a pointer to any documentation. Cheers, Matthew - -- Dr Matthew J Seaman MA, D.Phil.

If it is loading OK kldstat will show it and you should get output from cat /dev/sndstat confirming. [EMAIL PROTECTED]:0:6:0:class=0x040100 card=0x42801013 chip=0x60031013 rev=0x01 hdr=0x00 is matching the #define CS4614_PCI_ID 0x60031013 in the driver code so it really ought to work. If it doesn't try not loading the acpi module at boot.

That line is already in /etc/hosts, both with and without a trailing period. I still get the ~3 messages about a minute apart during boot. The first 4 lines of /etc/hosts look like: ::1localhost 127.0.0.1 localhost 192.168.200.61 foo 192.168.200.61 foo. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
