RE: mps driver overwrite using loader.conf
Hi, I have found another email id to post question so adding " freebsd-questions@freebsd.org" in list. Here are some more detail. driver is inbuilt in FreeBSD-9 and FreeBSD-10-Current. I want to use my next version of driver to be loaded instead of compiled inbuilt in kernel binary. When I added /boot/loader.conf with mps_load="YES", I see my new driver available at /boot/kernel/mps.ko is getting loaded on FreeBSD-9-RELEASE, but on FreeBSD-10-CURRENT it always use inbuilt driver. Any Idea if this is expected behavior ? Any change in FreeBSD-10 is causing this behavioral difference ? ` Kashyap > -Original Message- > From: owner-freebsd-s...@freebsd.org [mailto:owner-freebsd- > s...@freebsd.org] On Behalf Of Desai, Kashyap > Sent: Thursday, February 09, 2012 12:24 AM > To: Kenneth D.

Re: fbsd safety of the ports
--As of February 9, 2012 6:36:00 AM -0800, per...@pluto.rain.com is alleged to have said: TWiki is a nightmare to update ... TWiki was replaced with Foswiki (which is also in ports) at $WORK a while back. Dunno why, or how much of a job the changeover was for the admins, but there must have been some expected benefit to justify the effort. The change was largely transparent to users. --As for the rest, it is mine. That's because TWiki's former lead developer - and trademark holder - was being a dick. He managed to completely alienate all the current developers, and was holding up development of TWiki. So they left en-mass and forked the project; the new project is Foswiki. (This is obviously a condensed summary. There is much more information online, as most of this happened in public.) The expected benefits are therefore the backlog of changes that had been held up, and an active developer community. However, the 'update' procedure hasn't changed. Daniel T.

You have to do something else -- in this case, killing sendmail before editing rc.conf and starting your preferred MTA after would be the minimum to achieve the intended effect. To test fully though, you should reboot. If the loss of connectivity is a consequence of rebooting, then it suggests that you're probably inadvertently modifying some other settings in rc.conf, or that the problem already existed and the changes to rc.conf are a red herring. There have been some changes to the syntax used to configure IPv6 addresses in 9.0 -- check rc.conf(5) for details -- but that doesn't seem entirely relevant here.

Quite. Disabling sendmail (even if done properly and completely) should not have any effect on the functioning of your basic networking setup.

I think the guide you linked to: http://blather.michaelwlucas.com/archives/1071 meant that you have to be in single user mode until you have edited /etc/fstab to point to the mirror, otherwise you wouldn't boot with root on the mirror. The synchronization between the disks works fine in multi-user mode as well. I have two 2 TiB disks in gmirror set up just like that.

one question about Freebsd subversion access log
Hello, I am doing an analysis on Freebsd subversion access log. One log extracted from the access log is below. The piece of log include files and subdirectories which are indicated "modified" (M). The subdirectories are: /stable/7/sbin/geom, /stable/7/sbin/geom/class/label, /stable/7/sbin/geom/class/part /stable/7/sbin/geom/class/stripe /stable/7/sbin/geom/misc /stable/7/sys /stable/7/sys/cddl/contrib/opensolaris /stable/7/sys/contrib/dev/acpica /stable/7/sys/contrib/pf My question is: why are the subdirectories recorded as "modified", even though there is no files modified under most of the subdirectories? I did a test of modifying a file and submitting a commit to the subversion in my local machine. No subdirectories are recorded as "modified" except for the file. I can not find the answer through googling. thanks Yiru --- r225881 | mav | 2011-09-29 14:42:44 -0400 (Thu, 29 Sep 2011) | 5 lines Changed paths: M /stable/7/sbin/geom M /stable/7/sbin/geom/class/journal M /stable/7/sbin/geom/class/label M /stable/7/sbin/geom/class/mirror/geom_mirror.c M /stable/7/sbin/geom/class/mirror/gmirror.8 M /stable/7/sbin/geom/class/part M /stable/7/sbin/geom/class/stripe M /stable/7/sbin/geom/misc M /stable/7/sys M /stable/7/sys/cddl/contrib/opensolaris M /stable/7/sys/contrib/dev/acpica M /stable/7/sys/contrib/pf M /stable/7/sys/geom/mirror/g_mirror_ctl.c MFC r196879: Add support for changing providers priority.

portshaker, listing updates and skipping broken/removed ports
Dear folks, I have a question regarding portshaker. I have successfully used Warren Block's script to make updates. http://www.wonkity.com/~wblock/docs/html/portupgrade.html #!/bin/sh /usr/sbin/portsnap fetch update && \ /usr/local/sbin/portmaster -L --index-only | egrep '(ew|ort) version|total install' How can I do the same with portshaker command? I now have to use portshaker to update freebsd-texlive ports. I try to fetch updates to texlive-* ports, but none show up. They show up after I run portshaker command. The freebsd-texlive ports http://code.google.com/p/freebsd-texlive/ by Romain Tartiere are working beautifully, but updating them is another story. I did not know that one has to use portshaker to get the updates, since they are not officially in freebsd ports. Running portshaker now I see the updates and can update them, but some packages have been removed upstream and portmaster -a command fails and I have to manually remove the culprit packages Otherwise above script only updates regular freebsd official ports and not the new ones with texlive. Also, if there are broken or removed ports in ports tree, I get updating error. * package has been removed and blah blah blah aborted... I have to then run # portmaster -a -x name-of-one-broken-package -x name-of-removed-package -x etc... Is there a way to avoid having to type the broken or removed packages and update with one command? Maybe a conditional command, update only available ports and skip the broken ones? Thanks for advice/suggestions/comments. Many of the folks on this list are very knowledgeable and have been a great help throughout and I am glad to be using FreeBSD and learning more about this great operating system that I never knew before.

How to create 2 versions of a port
I maintain a port that accesses the release distribution files. Now with 9.0 having a different path /i386/i386 and the files being compressed first with tar and then again with xz I need to change the port to access the new layout and file format. I would like to leave the current version in the ports as is which works fine with the 8.x world and add a second version that only works with 9.0 and newer. Question is how do i change the port description of the current port to say it supports 8.x with out re-adding the complete port again? I know I have to add the new port version that supports ge 9.0. ___ 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"
