It's times like these than make me want to go off to some dark place and hang my head in shame. No need to do so. In AT times, before ATX was common, there was no way to power off the machine as it had a mechanical power switch (a _real_ switch), so using -h was the way to go. For example, I've programmed Ctrl+Alt+Moon on my Sun USB keyboard... Sun keyboards have moon keys?? The moon key is on the top right, and only present on the type 6 and 7 keyboards. Pervious models had a (I) key (power key) in that location. http://stuartconnections.com/products/Computers/Peripherals/Keyboard_and_Mouse_Combos/Sun_320-1366-03/DSC09864w.jpg http://i.stack.imgur.com/D8RsW.jpg http://www.lemis.com/grog/Photos/20120509/big/Keyboard-1.jpeg For comparison: http://imageshack.us/scaled/landing/387/suntype5cks2.jpg http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E19683-01/806-4743/images/keyboard_a.tif.gif The original function of the (I) power key has been to switch the computer on and off. Today I'm using it for session logout, and for power off (with Ctrl and Alt, just to reduce the change of accidental system shutdown). (I hope and trust that I'm not the only one who finds this fact rather comical. Perhaps that's why Sun put the key there (?)) Now that Sun doesn't exist anymore, there's the word Oracle on top of the keyboard. The moon is more associated with the uncertainity of a mysterious oracle than the sun. :-) In the past, this kind of operation has been performed via APM.

I cannot wait to participate in this wonderful experience that keeps the throw away society alive (and enable us to buy cheaper and more powerful stuff, on the other hand). How will I be going to have a video feed from a VCR when I cannot plug in my fully working and excellently supported PCI TV card (with video input) anywhere? It's hard to keep doing the same over the period of time the equipment will work. Okay, no problem if you need to to something new (which requires more power, more storage or faster speed), but if that's not the case, the wheel keeps being reinvented.

Re: [ZFS] recover destroyed zpool - what are the available options?
09.04.2013 06:51, Beeblebrox: Exported the existing zpool ran # zpool import -D -f -R /bsdr -N -F -X 12018916494219117471 rescue = Same result unfortunately. 'cannot import 'bsdr' as 'rescue': no such pool or dataset Destroy and re-create the pool from a backup source.' I tried the other bsdr zpool as well but result was same error msg. I feel like I'm overlooking something very simple... You can try adding verbosity: vfs.zfs.debug=1 vfs.zfs.recover=1 debug.bootverbose=1 If ZFS doesn't think the pool is eligible to import you are out of luck. You can put the disk aside till some sofwtare for data recovering from damaged ZFS emerges. -- Sphinx of black quartz, judge my vow. ___ 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
Re: ERROR: vxgehal-mgmtaux.c: sou vxge_hal_mrpcim_reg_t has too many members: 1911 1023

ERROR: vxgehal-mgmtaux.c: sou vxge_hal_mrpcim_reg_t has too many members: 1911 1023 I just found this posting through a Google search and I couldn't find a followup or further information. Thus, for the sake of anyone else searching for this: this error comes from ctfconvert(1), when converting debug information for a struct or union (sou) which has more than 1023 members. It looks like the 1023 limit is an inherent limit in the encoding used by CTF; there's no constant that can just be increased as a workaround. The error causes ctfconvert(1) to terminate, so the corresponding source file will end up with no CTF data and hence dtrace will not work correctly. It looks like vxge_hal_mrpcim_reg_t is the only struct that triggers this error, so the impact is limited to 16 files in the vxge(4) driver (Exar/Neterion X3100 10GbE). ___ 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

What version are you running?
I have youtube_dl-2012.09.27 here, not the most recent one.
Sometimes there is a problem when your version has been
obsoleted by something YouTube did change.

KDE4 package
Hello, yesterday, I was happily installing kde4 from packages with: pkg_add -r kde4 with $PACKAGESITE set to: ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/amd64/packages-9-stable/Latest/ I had to kill the install at the end of the work day, and when I attempt to finish installing this morning, I get (and can verify via FTP) 'file not found or no access'. So, the kde4 package(s) was/were moved during the night? Any help is welcome, thanks.

Amazon VPC instances
Has anyone used Colin Percival's FreeBSD builds for Amazon EC2 to build an Amazon VPC instance? If so, does it support multiple network interfaces or aliases with multiple IP's so that I can run multiple SSL certs on the same instance?

Re: Amazon VPC instances
I don't know about FreeBSD + EC2, but you may be interested to know that you can use multiple SSL certificates with one IP address! So you can have multiple vhosts/server blocks with different certificates on one host. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Server_Name_Indication On Tue, Apr 09, 2013 at 06:20:29PM -0700, Don O'Neil wrote: Has anyone used Colin Percival's FreeBSD builds for Amazon EC2 to build an Amazon VPC instance?
