Bouncing Email
Hi All: This is probably (ok... IS) off topic, so if anyone knows of a list dealing with policyd-weight please just point me at it. Otherwise, has anyone noticed a sharp upswing in bounced emails due to listings in such places as: multi.surbl.org rhsbl.ahbl.org dsn.rfc-ignorant.org postmaster.rfc-ignorant.org abuse.rfc-ignorant.org I've seen email that has been getting through for ages now bouncing. And all of them seem to be because of these lists.

Thunderbird 6.0.2/7.0: Crashing when using with OpenLDAP backend
I run in a problem on FreeBSD 9.0-BETA3/10.0-CURRENT using OpenLDAP (Cyrus SASL2 aktivated) and OpenLDAP backend (most recent client and server). Thunderbird 6.0.2 and 7.0 coredumps with signal 11. I hadn't any chance to check whether this also happens on 8.2-STABLE, but I'll check this as soon as possible, since I run the same OpenLDAP backend and configuration (also the Cyrus SASL2 libs, most recent from ports). The boxes in question do have FreeBSD 9.0-BETA3/10.0-CUR compiled with CLANG and Thunderbird is also compiled with CLANG. Does anyone else experience these issues?

Error during boot-up
From time to time when booting up or rebooting on of my FreeBSD-8.2 amd 64 machines, the following error message is displayed ad infinitum: nfe0: discard frame w/o leading ethernet header (len 0 pkt len 0) All I can do is repeatedly hit CTRL+C until the log-on screen appears. Then log-in as root and reboot. Sometimes this works and sometimes it doesn't. The same phenomena may happen repeatedly 10 times or more or suddenly just disappear. I have tried using ifconfig to bring the network up when this happens but it fails. Only a reboot seems to make any difference. I am at a loss to figure out how to correct this problem or even what is causing it. It just suddenly started approximately three months ago. I have changed routers so I think I can safely eliminate that as the source of the problem. None of my Windows machines have ever complained about this so I am wondering if it isn't local to FreeBSD. I think the problem first manifested itself after updating to the 8.2 version since I do not remember it happening prior to that. -- Jerry ✌ jerry+f...@seibercom.net Disclaimer: off-list followups get on-list replies or ignored.

Like I'd like to change from i386 tp amd64. What is the procedure? i386 to amd64 is probably not impossible, but moving from one arch to another one by compiling source and upgrading is serious guru level stuff. Apart from anything else cross compiling to amd64 binaries on an i386 system is a potential source of grief. The best and surest way to change arch is to do a complete reinstall from scratch. Wipe out your i386 system and overwrite the space with amd64 from install media.

The source file is being truncated because fetch loses its connection for one reason or another. Many servers now cut you off if you are at dial-up speeds because net fairness means broadband users always go to the front of the line. You can make a shell script to fetch the file and keep running it until you finally get the whole file a piece at a time or you can try ftp. When you have the whole source file (check it against distinfo) place it in /usr/ports/distfiles. Things should go fine. Checksum mismatch nearly always means a truncated file. I cannot ever remember seeing it otherwise. Do not override it with NO_CHECKSUM. That will be useless with a truncated file and worse than useless if a security port really has been tampered with. -- Lars Eighner http://www.larseighner.com/index.html 8800 N IH35 APT 1191 AUSTIN TX 78753-5266 ___ 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
Volume control in mplayer resetting 50% when starting / stopping video clips
Since I've installed OS v8.2 (STABLE of late August), mplayer has developed an annoying habit: It accidentally resets its volume settings. I have the following configuration: The vol (master) channel of the mixer is controlled by the volume keys on the top right of my keyboard (Sun Type 7 USB) by issuing mixer vol +5, mixer vol -5 and mixer vol 0 respectively. Worked for many years. When I use the keys 9 and 0 in mplayer, they _should_ modify the volume of the pcm channel - at least they did this in the previous mplayer 0.9something version I've been using many years on on OS v7. They do - as it seems - now too, but: when I move within the movie clip, they reset to some 50% value. Example: I set the volume slider to this value: [|||---] Now I press the left or right arrow key, or the space bar twice, then the volume gets up to the 50% value: [--] This is ANNOYING. Does anyone know a solution for this? I'm using mplayer-1.0.r20110329_3 compiled from ports. Audio driver is: pcm0: HDA VIA VT1708_8 PCM #0 Analog (play/rec) default pcm1: HDA VIA VT1708_8 PCM #1 Analog (rec) pcm2: HDA VIA VT1708_8 PCM #2 Digital (play) Strangest thing: I can see values change in the output of the mixer command when changing the vol volume, but not if I change the volume from inside mplayer. NB: The _difference_ between pcm and vol is known to me. I _intendedly_ use different setting mechanisms, i. e. vol defines the maximum output level transmitted to the amplifier, and pcm can be used to change the volume within the range from zero up that preset master value. I know that it's possible to have the 9/0 keys change the vol (master) channel, but that's not intended - nor does it seem to be a solution here. -- 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
