You can try to use the 32 bit compatibility (COMPAT32) and then run the 32 bit version of mplayer.

This MAY be a codec problem. You can try the following: First mount the DVD (cd_9660), then use mplayer on one of the VOB files directly. Choose one of the bigger files for this test, and maybe use mplayer's -v option to get an idea what may be wrong - the program should tell you about this. -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ... ___ 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"

Does padlock(4) driver support VIA Nano processors?
The padlock(4) man page says that it supports hardware accelerated aes/RNG in VIA C3, C7 and Eden processors. The new Nano processor series also includes Padlock, so this processor supported by FreeBSD's padlock driver although the man page does not mention it? I am thinking of buying an M830/Nano platform to build a low power custom NAS with encrypted volumes and thus it is necessary to get hardware acceleration for geli.

make all vs buildworld
Good Day; Can someone tell me what the difference between using /usr/src#>make buildworld vs /usr/src/#>make all. I know that FreeBSD uses make buildkernel and make buildworld to routinely build the kernel and userland. Yet, I had an issue with a recent buildworld (after buildkernel). It error'd out building a kerberos5 library and I lost patience trying to figure it out. I tried /usr/src#>make all and the build went to completion without error. What would I hurt if I then did /usr/src/#>make install?

7.3 - optimizing filesystem - cache all metadata
Hello! I have FreeBSD 7.3 server that is used for web sites. It performs many filesystem operations, so filesystem performance is very important. I am looking how can it be improved. I already use vfs.lookup shared=1, it helped me some time ago to decrease CPU time usage on filesystem operations. I also increased vfs.ufs.dirhash_maxmem to 67108864. But It still sometimes takes several seconds to ls directory that s not in the cache and fstat() calls sometimes slow when IO is high. Can filesystem performance be improved more? I think performance would benefit from increasing memory used for file metadata cache. One of the most frequent operations is fstat(). If it could be possible to tell FreeBSD to keep all metadata cache in memory and never clear it, all repeating fstat() operations would become very fast. How can I see how much memory is used for filesystem cache? Is it possible to increase this memory and increase time that cache entry is keeped in the memory (probably to infinity)? Thanks in advance. -- Олег Петрачев ___ 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"

redirecting command output depending on exit status
Hi list, I have a cron task set up using lockf. I'd like to redirect one exit status to /dev/null : "it (lockf command) returns one of the exit codes defined in sysexits(3), as follows: EX_TEMPFAIL The specified lock file was already locked by another process. EX_CANTCREAT The lockf utility was unable to create the lock file, e.g., because of insufficient access privileges. EX_USAGE There was an error on the lockf command line. EX_OSERR A system call (e.g., fork(2)) failed unexpectedly. EX_SOFTWARE The command did not exit normally, but may have been sig- naled or stopped." I don't care about the EX_TEMPFAIL output as I consider it as a successful exit status, not an error.

[SOLVED] sound card not recognized by freebsd 8.2 but mentioned in PC-BSD 8.2
I am actually amazed nobody nor the handbook mentioned OSS to me, because after learned this, it suddenly become obvious this option should be tried right after failure of snd_driver. In fact, the sound card in-topic is Ali M5455, the first on the list of sound card supported by OSS. http://manuals.opensound.com/devlists/FreeBSD.html The solution is as simple as 'pkg_add -vr oss'. done. solved. Consider OSS supported sound card list is rather long, it should be a must recommendation after snd_driver. Again amazed that lspci in Linux showed keyword M5455, but pciconf -lv didn't show keyword "M5455". Having the keyword it's only a minute to figure out which is the right driver. -- 我的博客： http://zhangweiwu.ixiezi.com/ 网站进化论 －－写给需要网站或后悔有了网站的人 ___ 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"
