I saw this issue with Daemon. I need to update FreakinBSD and Gandalf, so I'll try this again and get it in a log file. libdrm doesn't build without cairo.h in /usr/local/include, but it won't be there until you're built cairo, which depends on libdrm. As Lowell already said, I can't find any dependency between libdrm and cairo. My guess is you package database has one or more stale dependencies. However, if the purpose is to wipe all packages you don't even have to bother with pkg_delete. In such cases I simply rm /usr/local and /var/db/pkg (Keep /var/db/pkg/linux_base-fc* if you are using the linux binary compatibility, as this is not installed in /usr/local but /usr/compat). I do this routinely on test systems. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

Thinkpad APS in FreeBSD
Hi all, I have a question. I have a Thinkpad T500 that is going to be installed with FreeBSD. Does the Active Protection System (HDD protection) work in FreeBSD? I've tried searching about it in google and found HDAPS for linux, and a FreeBSD version seems to be available but I haven't heard anything since 2005. If anyone can give my any new info on this I'll greatly appreciate it. Thanks!

Running Apache with as few modules as possible
Hi, I ran across this web page the other day, and it seems like a reasonable choice for me (running on kinda low-end hardware). http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/misc/perf-tuning.html#compiletime I have these modules in my config for my development server, and I use the term loosely, it's really my make your mistakes here, instead of on the REAL web server machine. I researched each module on the Apache site, and to the extent that I understood, chose whether to comment them or not. It loads without any syntax errors, and I have tested the things that I can think of that might require a module. I'm not doing any user authentication, no dynamic pages, no forms, some cgi scripts, all but 2 in SSI, the other 2 in Perl. Can anyone see anything that I've commented that I'll be sorry for?

Myths about Power Over Ethernet
Myths about Power Over Ethernet April 27, 2008 Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) technology integrates power and data across standard Cat5/5e/6 network cabling and provides more flexibility in today’s workplace. PoE enables power to be supplied to network devices, such as IP phones, network cameras, and wireless access points through a single, most often existing, network cable. When combined with an uninterruptable power supply (UPS) a PoE network delivers continuous operation and minimizes business downtime by eliminating most power interruptions. With the ability to install endpoints in any location PoE technology provides a scalable and flexible networking infrastructure geared for growth and efficiency. PoE Switches can provide all the power I need or will need. Today most switches are merely PoE-enabled. This means the majority rely on power management to share available power across the switch ports. The switches are designed with a smaller power supply that is typically capable of powering the switch itself and providing the required 15.4 watts of power over a limited number of ports. For example: A 24-port PoE Switch with power management typically has a 195-watt power supply. After the 40 watts needed to power the switch, you have approximately 155 watts remaining. If 12 of the 24 ports are used to connect end devices using 11.5 watts each, you would only have 17 watts remaining to provide power on the last 12 ports. The math doesn’t match the ports: 195W – 40W (switch) – 138 (12 devices @ 11.5W/ea) = 17W left for power on 12 ports Myth Busted: A PoE Switch is often not the best and most cost effective solution. A midspan and a PoE switch are the same. A PoE Midspan is not a switch. A Midspan is an additional PoE power source that can be used to offer full power to all endpoint devices. PoE Midspans (Power Hub or Power Injector) pass data from a switch and ‘inject’ safe power acting as a patch panel of sorts. Midspans are commonly used with either a non-PoE switch, an existing PoE switch, or a new PoE switch in a network. In addition to offering full power across all available ports, midspans costs substantially less per port and overall than a new PoE enabled switch. Myth Busted: Midspans do not switch – they make use of existing best-in-class switches. They inject safe power across all ports and cost less than PoE switches. . Only a switch that has PoE built in should be used to power devices like IP Phones, Access Points, and IP Security Cameras. Switches were designed to, well, switch. PoE Switches are designed with power management and have to distribute different power as required to ports but there is often not enough power for all devices plus the power required to complete the primary task - switching. Networks that have multiple devices like IP phones, IP cameras, wireless access points quickly go beyond the limited capacity of managed power PoE switches. As more PoE devices continue to grow in capabilities and market share this managed power limitation will become more and more evident. Midspans, in contrast to switches, were designed to provide full power on every port and deliver safe and reliable power based on the industry standards (IEEE802.3af/at). Myth Busted: Rather than relying on power management in a switch use a midspan that can deliver full power (15.4W) to every port for all PoE-enabled devices now and in the future. Ethernet devices not PoE-enabled (non 802.3af/at compliant) cannot be powered using PoE technology. Many devices do not directly accept Power-over-Ethernet but can still use PoE technology. If the device uses less than 12.5 watts (802.3af) or less than 50 watts (802.3at+) and connects to an IP Ethernet network you can use a PoE splitter. PoE splitters enable you to accept PoE power from any IEEE 802.3af/at compliant switch or midspan then separates the data and power on to two seprate cables. The data is connected to the end device through a standard RJ45 plug while the power is connected using a standard 5.5 x 2.1 x 12mm Adapter Plug. Splitters can also convert the input voltage to the required voltage for a non-PoE device. Splitters are traditionally used with older network products which only accept power through their (DC) jack and data through their RJ-45 jack. Myth Busted: PoE splitters can be used in conjunction with PoE midspans and switches to provide both the data connectivity and power required by most endpoint devices. I need/will need additional PoE switch ports to power my IP cameras and high-power pan, tilt, and zoom (PTZ) cameras. Today, many devices have evolved into more advanced solutions with higher power requirements. The traditional approach was to endure a “forklift upgrade”. This meant buying new PoE switches at considerable cost and physically swapping out the existing switches to meet higher power requirements or add more powered ports.
archive search working?
I'm not getting any replies when searching the freebsd questions archives at http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-questions/ That's the page I get to if I google freebsd questions archives (and then a couple of clicks to get to the archives) . That page says the archives are rebuilt every 24 hours but also says last time it was rebuilt was Thursday, 08 Feb 2007. Also in passing, a failed search gives me three hints: Check the spelling of the search word(s) you used. If the spelling is correct and you only used one word, try using one or more similar search words with Any. If the spelling is correct and you used more than one word with Any, try using one or more similar search words with Any. If the spelling is correct and you used more than one word with All, try using one or more of the same words with Any. But the end of the second suggestion is the same as the end of the first and the third is a non-sequitor. I suspect the last word of the second hint should be All. While writing this I have discovered that going to www.freebsd.org and following the mailing lists link then the link to search I get to http://www.freebsd.org/search/search.html#mailinglists which does seem to work.

fixit console with sshd
I was just wondering if someone could give me a quick advice on how (or at least confirm it's possible) to start sshd in fixit console i.e. how to boot FreeBSD off the CD1 (6.4-RELEASE) and enable SSH access to it. What I have tried (unsuccessfully) so far is: 1) copying sshd startup script (and dependencies like missing sshd_config, rc.subr, sbin/sysctl) from /dist directory - sshd script (with forcestart to ignore rc.conf knob) executes and does nothing 2) chroot the /dist directory, mount_devfs and then start sshd - script tries to generate host keypair and fails to write them due to read-only filesystem I believe booting off a live CD and restoring a backup over network should be a relatively common recovery scenario, but googling around produced no usable results other than get FreeSBIE live cd.

X Window - how to get the standard font
Hi Daemons, a little question: I open a shell and invoke: #xmessage 'hello world' - it opens the window, but a rather tiny font. So I invoke: #xmessage -fn -*-fixed-*-*-*-*-20-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-* 'hello world' - the same appears in the fontsize I like. Now the question: Can I set the bigger font somewhere, so that i.e. xmessage appears always in the preset, bigger font without typing the whole -fn -*-* string in? Somewhere in .xinitrc? Checked the man pages, but its a science to find a solution there.

The Option XkbLayout us,ca - I have no idea where it comes from and I sure would like to know what to enter for that to try it out. And where does the grp:toggle come from? I just went through the same routine and I can't find any combination that works with the information I have been able to gather. :-( For what it's worth, I have been able to set up the French-Canadian keyboard in a hap-hazard way so, at least, is works partially.

ndis0 interrrupt storm
Hi all I'm trying to get a Linksys WPC54Gv5 wireless pccard working. It has a Marvell 8335 chip. I've created a module with ndisgen and I can see ndis0. When I up it with ifconfig I immediately get repeated messages: Apr 28 23:23:19 pcbsd kernel: interrupt storm detected on irq11:; throttling interrupt source As soon as I down the interface the messages stop. I've also tried starting ndis0 with polling # ifconfig ndis0 inet 192.168.1.20 polling but still get the messages. I guess this driver doesn't support polling. Or I've got the syntax wrong. According to vmstat -i irq11 is used by cbb0 and pcm0. ndis0 is on irq9 irq9: cbb1 ndis0++ This is on PCBSD 7.1 which is FreeBSD 7.2-PRERELEASE Any way I can get this thing working?

cannot get FreeBSD 7.X to load on HP z400
I cannot get FreeBSD 7.X to load on an HP z400. I have tried 7.1 i386 release, 7.1 amd64 release, 7.2 amd64 RC2, 8.0 amd64 current. In all versions the loader stops just after the message: Trying to mount root from ufs:/dev/md0 I have tried to simplify the setup of this unit to a single SATA drive, and a single SATA CD/DVD drive. I have tried various BIOS settings, turning on and off cores in the CPU, changing other IO setting, but still the install hangs. The z400 has the Intel® X58 Express chipset and a 4 core W3520 Xeon CPU. This particular unit has 4GB RAM. If I can get the amd64 version to load on it, I'd like to run it with more RAM. But obviously the first hurdle is getting the OS to boot to sysinstall.
