Re: 8.3-BETA1 installation problem

[Omer Faruk SEN]

Already done that but still habe the same issue. I can dd and sysctl but
after installing without using W at disk label screen still no luck. I have
also done
sysctl kern.geom.debugflags=16 on fixit and restarted installation but
still getting the same error.

NetAddr/IP.pm, p5-GSSAPI and FreeBSD 7

[Ron (Lists)]

I did a port upgrade last week and now I'm seeing a lot of errors like 
this in spamassassin and the like:


Can't locate NetAddr/IP.pm in @INC (@INC contains: 
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.14.2 /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.9/BSDPAN 
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.9/mach 
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.9 /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.9/mach 
/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.9) at 
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.14.2/Mail/SpamAssassin/NetSet.pm line 
25.


The problem seems to be in or related to:

===>>> Port directory: /usr/ports/security/p5-GSSAPI

===>>> This port is marked BROKEN
===>>> Does not work on FreeBSD 7.x


===>>> If you are sure you can build it, remove the
   BROKEN line in the Makefile and try again.

===>>> Update for p5-GSSAPI-0.28 failed
===>>> Aborting update

I won't be able to upgrade my machine to the lastest freeBSD for a 
couple of weeks.  Is this a temp solution I can use to get this 
compiling and spamassassin working?


I'm not sure why it's not able to find these other .pm files, it might 
be due to a failed portmaster update?  I've tried re-updating p5-*, but 
I am always stopped by the BROKEN error.


I haven't tried removing the BROKEN line yet, as I don't know if doing 
that will cause even worse problems.

Thank you, Dan.  That was exactly what I was missing.
I added:

export TERM=cons25

to the rc.d script and now my script works as it should, when I want
it to do so.

I appreciate your help, very much!

Not only is "Al Hadith" the Islamic term for the teachings and acts of

Those 388 probably explain why I just saw on a FreeBSD-6.4 host:

However misguided they are, they may believe strongly in this; so I'm 
not sure there is a troll per se.


The evidence is that they have only targeted freebsd.org addresses, and 
only the questions list. If they were trolling, why not include all the

Looks like your TERM variable is not set when booting.  Not a big surprise 
really.  Try setting

TERM=cons25

in your script before it calls dialog

Setting TERM in your script's environment? To my knowledge, the boot
scripts have a VERY minimal environment.

Tried on 9.0-RELEASE:

$ dialog --msgbox "Test message" 6 25

shows a message, whereas

$ TERM="" dialog --msgbox "Test message" 6 25

shows a black screen.

(c)dialog working differently during boot in script called by rc system than after boot?

[Robarrght]

(Background)
I have a script that uses dialog or cdialog (system, not devel,) to
prompt for network settings on my FreeBSD 8.2-RELEASE box.  When I
make certain changes with the script, a reboot is required.  But, this
would not be necessary if I ran the script during boot, before
networking is setup.  I've hooked up my script to the rc boot system.

(Issue)
The trouble is that when the rc.d system runs the script, instead of
the proper dialog boxes working as expected, all I get is a cleared
out black screen with a white arrow locked dead center that won't
move.  After boot, the script works normally.  I even have the script
running in getty on a virtual console, where it works like a champ.

So, what is the hangup?  Are there dependencies that (c)dialog needs
which aren't started yet?

(Troubleshooting)
If I simply run
dialog --msgbox "Test message" 6 25
in the rc.d file, instead of having it call my script, I get the same
bad behavior.  That suggests that it is not my script, but the
environment ... right?
I have played with the order of when the test dialog message (my rc.d
file) is ordered and even when it goes way at the end, after cron
starts up, (which is getting pretty close to the end,) no improvement.

I've seen this work on an older FreeBSD 6.2-STABLE box.  But, when I
cranked one of those up and tried the same simple dialog test directly
out of the rc.d script, it yielded a black and white ascii only
version of the message box.  That was an improvement over what I'm
getting on my current FreeBSD 8.2-RELEASE version.  But, I wish I knew
what the former magic was.

Does anyone out there see what I'm missing?

Thank you,
Robarrght

Re: CPAN hanging on ExtUtils::MakeMaker even if installed

[Ireneusz Pluta]

The perl itself even from ports is OK, the BSDPAN part is the problem.

If you only want a (temporary) solution for the subject problem, you may
( possibly s/5.8.8/5.8.9/ for your case ):

mv /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.8/BSDPAN /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.8/BSDPAN.bad

so perl falls with its @INC to the original ExtUtils::, because:

$ perl -e 'print join "\n", @INC'
/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.8/BSDPAN
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/mach
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl
/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.8/mach
/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.8

and

$ find /usr/local/lib/perl5 | grep ExtUtils/MakeMaker.pm
/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.8/BSDPAN/ExtUtils/MakeMaker.pm
/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.8/ExtUtils/MakeMaker.pm

But then you loose what /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.8/BSDPAN/BSDPAN.pm says:

DESCRIPTION
   BSDPAN is the collection of modules that provides tighter than ever
   integration of Perl into BSD Unix.

   Currently, BSDPAN does the following:

   o makes p5− FreeBSD ports PREFIX‐clean;
   o registers Perl modules with FreeBSD package database.

   BSDPAN achieves this by overriding certain functionality of the core
   Perl modules, ExtUtils::MM_Unix, and ExtUtils::Packlist.

   BSDPAN module itself just provides useful helper functions for the rest
   of the modules in BSDPAN collection.

You soon should be upgrading to 5.14.x (mee to :-), so do you care?

I'm sorry you feel that way.  There are plenty of other operating
systems with more palatable mascots and logos; perhaps you will be
happier with one of those than with FreeBSD.  I wish you all the best.

RE: DRI for Radeon HD5450 on FreeBSD 9.0

[Adam K Kirchhoff]

Dear list,

I own a radeon HD5450 and I would like to know how well it is supported
by freeBSD 9, in partocular DRI and 3D accelaeration.

I have a fresh 9.0/amd64 on my machine and Xorg fails to initialise the
DRI.  It says (from Xorg-0.log):

(II) AIGLX: Screen 0 is not DRI2 capable
(II) AIGLX: Screen 0 is not DRI capable
(II) AIGLX: Loaded and initialized /usr/local/lib/dri/swrast_dri.so
(II) GLX: Initialized DRISWRAST GL provider for screen 0
(II) RADEON(0): Setting screen physical size to 338 x 270

As the last line of the snippet displays it, I use radeon(4x) as driver.

I used the page

http://people.freebsd.org/~anholt/dri/troubleshooting.html  


to try to diagnose the problem and it seems that none of the driver agp
radeondrm and drm is able to initaialize correctly.

Can you enable DRI for HD5450 on FreeBSD 9.0 ?
Do you have some useful documentation to show me?

In any of these cases, I would say ``thanks!''

It is.

The problem is that our routing table support only a single route for
a prefix (yep, there is RADIX_MPATH, but it serves other needs). Thus,
every time we add or delete a prefix we need to do a lot of sanity
checking: running through interfaces list, seek for other origin
for this prefix, etc. All suggested patches do this, and from my viewpoint
these are crutches.

I'd prefer to have something like this:
