CF-Card Install for post FBSD-8.x systems
Hey guys. Does anyone know what the new "minimal" install size is? I remember running across a blurb about FBSD-7 and above require more space and supposedly won't fit on less than 512MB or something like that. What are these specs? And I feel like I should still be able to product an 8-20MB image for an embedded firewall/network appliance. I am attempting to port my firewall and vpn appliance to a CF-Card, or to the user-loadable flash on this old PIII motherboard which runs this system. I am having a bit of a time locating information in reference to this task, which does not reference 4.x and netbsd. -- Respectfully, Martes G Wigglesworth M. G.

perl update again
Hi! Again me with the perl update from 5.8 to 5.12. I did portmaster -o lang/perl5.12 /lang/perl5.8 and upgrade was without problem. Than I ran portmaster -r perl- and there were also for rebuild "arts", "qt33" which I dont have installed and portmaster --check-depends doesn't shows any problems. I went back to version 5.8 because I don't want to install those ports which I don't have. Did I do something wrong? Thanks in advance.

Something like this (not tested) should work: p1102:HP LaserJet P1102:sh:lp=/dev/ulpt0:sd=/var/spool/lpd/p1102:lf=/var/log/lpd:if=/opt/bin/filter-p1102 Then /opt/bin/filter-p1102 is where the printer filter resides. In "my" nomenclature, /opt is for everything that is not managed by the ports or by the system. Maybe you chose a better location, e. g. /etc/filter-p1102 or /usr/local/filters/filter-p1102, just as you like. Also make sure the spool directory and the log file do exist. The file filter-p1102 itself is just a shell script. It works as a wrapper for your foo2 filter, foo2zjs in your case: #!/bin/sh export PATH=/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/bin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin /usr/local/bin/foo2zjs-wrapper It reads from stdin and outputs to stdout, and this mechanism is embedded in lpd's processing chain, as far as I understood. > The point is that I am sure it will work with foo2zjs and LPD as > /dev/ulpt0 is recognized and works fine and I may simply use that as > output port and there is nothing CUPS-dependent in foo2zjs.

Right place, so all I can figure is when you initially ran it, the .opera or .linux-opera folder, whichever it is, was put in /root instead of /home/$USER.

Graham, you might want to consider doing your installation with a copy of PC-BSD. It's got a better installer than FreeBSD's sysinstall and you can use ZFS if you like.

It really depends on how much in a hurry you are. If timeing and a little wait doesn't matter, I would wait for 8.2. It is always just a trifle easier to install from scratch than update.

I used qmail for about 10 yrs and picked it when basically the choice was qmail, sendmail and smail. It worked well and was install and configure and don't do anything else for 10 years. Then a few years ago I was building a new machine and decided to re-assess the MTA; I chose Postfix and am very pleased with it.

Re: Opening Opera as user
Just wanted to mention that Flash works fine for me with native Opera and the opera-linuxplugins port. So did you install linux-Opera from the port? I haven't run linux-Opera on FreeBSD in a while (I run it in Linux:), so I don't recall - is the binary called "opera" or "linux-opera"? Jud I always start x as user. I learned early on not to make the mistake of starting X as root. I use Fluxbox with X, and had a terminal window open there with root invoked for that window. That's when I first tried to open linux-opera. Naturally, it opened fine, but will not open if I try to do the same thing from a terminal window as user. I would like to set up Opera to open from the Fluxbox menu, but in order for that to happen the program needs to be opened as user, which is just what I can't do. I'm not an opera user so maybe there's a reason I'm not aware of, but why are you using linux-opera and not the native version? You can try to run it under truss(1) to see if that gives any clues as where it's failing. The reason that I installed linux-opera, as opposed to the native version, is that all of the linux plugins seem to work quite well with this version. Flash, for example, works beautifully, which is something that I have never had success using with any other browser and FreeBSD. Rem I installed the program from the ports. And, yes, the binary is called linux-opera. If I can't figure out why the program refuses to open as user I will probably do a pkg_delete and start over, especially since you seem to have the plug-ins working fine with the native program.

Re: Opening Opera as user
I installed linux-opera, and I guess I made a mistake by opening it the first time as root, when I should have opened as user.

Use -personaldir if you do not want to use /root/.opera/ Don't focus on this because you shouldn't be running it as root at all. What actually happens when you try to run it as an normal user?

Thank you very much. But I like to know if I need to change entry in
make.conf:
# added by use.perl 2010-11-05
17:40:46 PERL_VERSION=5.8.9
to PERL_VERSION=5.12.3
or just delete those line.
Thanks in advance.

In UPDATING it also says:
" If you want to switch to lang/perl5.12 from lang/perl5.{8,10} please
follow instructions in the entry 20100715 in this file."
Note that 5.8.9 is built out of a different port to 5.12.3

Yes, very easily, provided you follow the prescribed technique. Full details in the handbook, of course.

Updating from RC's is normally straightforward.

By my professional experience... Postfix will give you more "oportunities and features" for things going well... Some years ago I set up qmail servers and I like qmail and I like playing with it's code... but should say that nowadays unless IMHO... Postfix is basically the nowadays opensource mail system.
