Yes, the switch would need to support Cisco's FEC protocol if you want to use ng_fec with it. Sadly the switch they are connected to does not support port bonding. Does that matter? Yep. In many cases, a single 100Mbs link does just fine, but if you need more bandwidth, you can pick up a gigabit NIC nowadays for not much. Picking up a GB-capable switch is more expensive, but perhaps your existing switch might have one or a couple of GB ports...

If you look at the Zope port there are a bunch of FreeBSD-specific patches and some additional magic is performed after the build that would also be FreeBSD-centric.

Okay, please walk me through this one, since I can't afford to screw it up. The server is on the other side of the planet, so reinstalling from an iso is impractical. How do I fetch the base files? TIA, Rachel You're barking up the wrong tree. There's nothing at all wrong with your system compiler. See your other thread about your problems with Zope. You've mistaken using python to repair the python libraries that interface with the C libraries with using gcc to fix something. You admit that you were able to successfully compile and install Zope from the ports system, which uses the system C compiler. If you don't believe me try installing some other ports, or even cd /usr/src make buildworld. (which won't actually touch anything, it's completely safe to do) If you run into compiler issues doing that *THEN* you can start to deal with a corrupted C compiler. Until then I think you'd be money ahead to look at the FreeBSD-specific patches that are applied during the Zope build from the port, and the additional magic that is done in the port's Makefile.

I deduce this because when I go to build Zope (as an example) from source I have to run a script afterwards that repairs the broken C files. (This, strangely, is not the case if I build Zope from port.) So, my questions for you programmers more experienced than I, are: 1) Does my assessment make sense? Is gcc corrupt? 2) Whether it is or not, how should I troubleshoot/fix my problem? It seems to me I should re-install FBSD, but how? TIA, Rachel It's not immediately clear to me what you mean by repairing broken C files. The port uses the Zope source and the system compiler, presumably the same source and compiler you are using to build it by hand. Are you sure you aren't just 'doing it wrong' ?

I never tried to burn anything with 6.0-RELEASE and it worked fine on 5.4-RELEASE I've seen the same thing for the past several weeks (worked fine at some point prior to 6.1). I'm running 6-STABLE, updated every couple weeks. As near as I've been able to determine, the fixate step doesn't actually do anything, so your CD's will still be open but should work fine under any modern OS. As a workaround you can repeat the fixate step at a lower speed: burncd -f /dev/acd0 -s 4 fixate I haven't experimented enough to know at what speed the fixate step breaks, but that does seem to be what's going on. I also haven't tried turning off ATAPICAM, which would be another interesting data point. If you or someone else has the time to figure out exactly which (set of) commits started producing this behavior, that would be excellent material for a PR. I may get around to it myself but it's not a high priority. dmesg is attached. Looks like you forgot it. In my case (using ATAPICAM): acd1: CDRW SONY CD-RW CRX215E1/SYS2 at ata1-slave UDMA33 cd1 at ata1 bus 0 target 1 lun 0 cd1: SONY CD-RW CRX215E1 SYS2 Removable CD-ROM SCSI-0 device cd1: 33.000MB/s transfers cd1: Attempt to query device size failed: NOT READY, Medium not present JN My client says it included a dmesg...wonder what's going on with that. I've tried using different burn speeds all the way down to 32x. I am using ATAPICAM, I wonder if it is somehow related to that? I think I'll unload that and give it a shot. -- Thanks, Josh Paetzel ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I had same setup as above but with IPF firewall and received complaints about surfing speed so I put them back on a Linksys router firewall. We'd have to see the ruleset to be able to reply in an informed manner. I have seen firewalls doing both filtering NAT on a system, with almost no overhead at all though. This top output: http://keramida.serverhive.com/pixelshow-top.txt shows that a FreeBSD 5.X system with 256 MB of physical memory is happily filtering the traffic and doing NAT for more than 100 users, while still being 97% idle. I would think it is more than CPU speed. The speed of the PCI bus and the speed and efficiency of the two network cards being used and their drivers may have a bit to do with latency (surfing speed)... Just a guess Chad I had a dual pentium 100 with 96 megs of RAM that did ipf/ipnat for a 10mbps connection with a couple dozen users. CPU usage was usually around 1% and load averages .03 or so. Latency and throughput were both acceptable. The only reason I replaced the box was it was a single point of failure and the hardware was old enough that I was afraid there would be some sort of show stopper breakdown. -- Thanks, Josh Paetzel ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Some time ago I posted about having 2d performance issues with Xorg, nvidia driver, and linux-opera. I haven't had much time lately to figure out what is going on but I finally found a solution/workaround yesterday.

Lockup/Halt issues on FreeBSD-6.0-RELEASE
#uname -a FreeBSD gimpy.tcbug.org 6.0-RELEASE FreeBSD 6.0-RELEASE #1: Fri Nov 11 20:00:32 CST 2005 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC i386 dmesg attached This box has run 5.4-RELEASE-p(x) for quite some time without issue. I cvsupped it to 6.0-RC1 and that worked fine. I cvsupped to 6.0-RELEASE and that's when I started getting strange behaviour. I run Xorg and fluxbox-devel with a large variety of apps. A typical mix is gaim, linux-opera, kate, kmail, xmms, xchat, gimp and a half dozen xterms for good measure. Every once in a while the box will hang in a very strange way. xmms plays music, irc stuffs scrolls on xchat, compiles on an xterm keep going, and the mouse pointer works. The mouse buttons won't do anything, the keyboard won't do anything, I can't switch to a different virtual terminal, nothing is logged, I can't get to a debugger. If I hit the power button (this is an ATX system) the box immediately shuts off. On reboot it doesn't need to do an fsck of any kind nor does it complain about filesystems being unmounted improperly. This sort of leads me to believe that somehow parts of shutdown are being run (or insert your theoretical theory here) I'm willing to do trouble-shooting on this if anyone is interested in looking at it. I may be able to get a serial console when the hang occurs. (haven't tried that yet) -- Thanks, Josh Paetzel Copyright (c) 1992-2005 The FreeBSD Project.

Gathering statistics on disk usage
I am trying to set up mrtg to graph disk usage. I've tried using the output of iostat to provide me with usage in MB/s. The problem with this is that moving data from disk to disk on the system causes the usage to jump to around 30MB/s. Even with mrtg configured to draw the graphs logarithmically they basically blow up and the normal transfers are not really visable. systat -vm gives statistics on disk usage with a percent busy field. This stat would be easier to graph and I would like to use it. My problem is that I can't seem to extract the output of systat properly. I've tried doing systat -vm | tail -n -1 and that doesn't work. I've also tried systat -vm somefile.txt and that doesn't work. There doesn't seem to be a way to get systat to run once and then quit either. Can anyone think of a way to either capture systat's output or recommend a utility that will give me a % busy output? I've tried iostat without success. -- Thanks, Josh Paetzel ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Gathering statistics on disk usage
If you apply the patch at http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=bin/68840, you will be able to get %busy stats out of iostat. Thanks for your quick reply. Unfortunately your patch does not apply cleanly to a 4.11-STABLE box. I can supply iostat.c.rej if you want it.

Re: Gathering statistics on disk usage
It definitely should have applied cleanly on 5.4. I just tested it. Try downloading the Raw PR link at the bottom of the page; that will remove any html-escaping. The patch won't work on 4.x because the devstat interface got overhauled between 4.x and 5.x. All right, I get the point hat for this one.

In the four months I've been working for him, I have spent more time fiddling with our Linux servers than I spent in 4 years running FreeBSD on a number of servers. On one of my old FreeBSD servers, I wanted a regular Apache installation, so I had /usr/ports/www/apache13 installed. At the same time, I maintained a specially-configured Apache installation in /usr/local2 that was, among other things, statically linked with mod_perl. On the new box that we're putting together soon, we'll need to have apache2 going, so that's obviously something to install/maintain via ports. At the same time, we're going to need a couple of statically linked apache13 installations. Should I plan on repeating the what I did before, which is to maintain an apache installation separate from ports? Or is there some clever way to have ports install stuff in different places under different names? For instance, I'd like to have www/apache2 installed in the default location and install www/apache13-modperl with some PREFIX, telling it to disregard any CONFLICTS? Can I give a ports installation a different DISTNAME so that it's in the package database under some other name? TIA!

ssh timeout on 4.x
I have a 4.9 RELEASE system that is running as a gateway / webserver for a small LAN. From the internal LAN I can ssh to it fine. From the internet ssh times out. There are no firewall rules interfering. I haven't tried ssh in debug mode although next time I'm on-site I intend to enable it. The webserver works fine, another oddity is that I can't telnet to port 80 on the machine from the internet. Here's the errors I get trying ssh and telnet respectively: port 22: Operation timed out telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: connect to address 66.103.77.xx: Operation timed out Anyone have any suggestions of things I can try next time I'm on site? -- Thanks, Josh Paetzel ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I have UT2004 running in freebsd, but some of the images and player models don't show up and, while the mouse works in the menus, once I get in game, I can't do anything. Any ideas on how to fix this? It seems the keyboard doesn't work either once I'm in game except for alt-enter when windows the screen from fullscreen. It's like it's not able to access the keyboard or mouse using what ever raw access it's trying to do, but they both work elsewhere when it's just using the regular X protocol to access them. I'm using linux_base-7.1, and I don't have linux-XFree86-libs installed either (Perhaps that's not required since I'm use x.org.) And UT2004 works just fine with me. Though the performance is somewhat worse then it was at Windows, but that's probably because of the Nvidia drivers. Of course, one should not expect too much from an GeForce 4 MX440 :) When I was using linux_base-7 I had several linux programs missing certain versions of libstdc++ libraries. The installed version was something like libstdc++.so.3 and the program needed something like libstdc++.so.9. Since I installed linux_base-rh-9, they now run, though UT2004 has problems in-game. Before I upgraded linux_base, it didn't even start. Also, linux-XFree86-libs isn't needed for linux_base-7, there already part of it, but they seperated it out for rh-9 I guess. And UT2004 runs just fine in Linux with my GeForce4 MX440 and since Doom 3 runs pretty good in both linux and freebsd with my geforce 4, I'd say the nvidia drivers are probably pretty good.

From the FreeBSD box I try this: ping -S 10.0.0.1 10.0.0.254 but none of the pings are responded to. From 10.0.0.254, I try pinging 10.0.0.1, but the result is the same. Okay, here is the WEIRD part: When I run tcpdump to see what's going on, all of a sudden everything starts working! It's as if going into promiscuous mode shuts off some kind of block that I can't figure out. When I kill tcpdump, it goes back to not working again. Any ideas what is causing this or how to fix it? I strolled through the install notes, but I don't even know what I'm looking for. That makes searching the mailing list archives difficult also.

Re: How to reconfigure a port installation?

Because I made a wrong choice at one point, the install failed. Now, I want to run make install again in order to chose the right options. Unfortunately, I can't just issue that command, as it apparently proceeds with what information I gave it the first time. Out of curiosity I tried make deinstall and pkg_delete, but they don't work as the port was never installed. So, what command to I need to issue?

ATI 9600 Support
I have a radeon 9600 and have been trying to get it working in dual-head mode. Someone linked me to a screen-shot that showed an ATI control panel with a dual-head tab. Is there any chance someone could link me to a site that provides said application.
