Thank You, Michael Do you get any better results if you use the SCSI address of your drive instead of the device name? cd0 at ata0 bus 0 scbus1 target 0 lun 0 Try using: export CDDA_DEVICE=1,0,0 export CDR_DEVICE=1,0,0 And see if your cdrtools at least work. Audio CD playing apps still have problems, though, unfortunately. Thank You, Setting these environment variables had no effect on my machine. $cdcontrol play 1 still produces drive activity but no sound. The graphical apps I am trying such as Abraca, or MPlayer, still do not seem to recognize an audio CD. Gnome Audio CD Extractor - Sound Juicer - still errors with 'No CD-ROM drives found' even though Metallica is in the drive. I am doing $portupgrade -a with updates downloaded today, to see if it will change anything. Other than that FreeBSD 9 is working splendidly on this laptop.

Re: Help needed: sound/audio only semi-working

I've even gotten flash10 working with firefox... well... Unfortunately, this is only MOSTLY working. The video works great, but for audio all I get is absolute silence. The really strange thing is that after I followed all the directions here: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/books/handbook/sound-setup.html This command: cat /dev/random> /dev/dsp *does* produce quite a bit of white noise sound. However when I perform the other officially recommended basic audio functionality test: cdcontrol -f /dev/acd0 play 1 with one of my favorite old audo CDs in the drive (AND with that special little wire running from the back of the drive to my motherboard) all that happens is that the CD/DVD drive apparently _does_ start to read some stuff... as evidenced by the blinking access light in the front of the drive... but I still get no sound out, and YouTube videos still aren't giving me any audio even though the video seems to be playing perfectly. So, um, I am grasping for ideas here on how I can debug this problem furher. I really have no idea what to do next to get this debugged. I supposed that if nobody gives me a good suggestion, I'm gonna try swapping out that special little wire for another one and then try swapping the CD/DVD drive for another one if that still doesn't solve it. Sigh. :-( I just checked and yes, the CD/DVD drive _can_ mount a data CD alright. No problems doing that. So how can it be that this works just fine: cat /dev/random> /dev/dsp even while this: cdcontrol -f /dev/acd0 play 1 causes the disk to spin up and read, but otherwise produces utter silence? I'm flummoxed. Any help would be appreciated. Regards, rfg P.S. My motherboard (w/ onboard audio) is a Gigabyte GA-M55Plus-S3G.

From /usr/ports/security/nessus-libraries/files/README.bpf "Nessus uses the pcap library, which uses the berkeley packet filter (bpf) to do its job. Since Nessus used multiple processes, several pcap-aware plugins will need to access the the bpf at the same time. This means that you need to recompile your kernel with the following option: pseudo-device bpf If for instance you want to have 10 nessusd running at the same time, each running 5 plugins in parallel, you should create 50 (10 * 5) bpfs (as nessusd is extremely lightweight, you can expect to have this amount of processes running at the same time) If you plan to scan a whole network, we recommand you create at least 100 of them. Once your kernel has been rebuilt, get root, cd to /dev and do: ./MAKEDEV bpf+100 For FreeBSD 5.x this is not needed since the devfs creates devices when needed. If you can not recompile your kernel, you can try to run the configure script with the option --enable-bpf-sharing. In this case, nessusd will try to share one /dev/bpf among multiple processes and do the filtering in userland. NOTE THAT THIS OPTION IS HIGHLY EXPERIMENTAL AND WE DO NOT RECOMMAND ENABLING IT." Is this referring to an 8.2 system? psuedo-device does not work on 9.0 kernel source. Have not tried the MAKEDEV command yet because I do no

FreeBSD 9-BETA2 on a Dell Latitude D630
Good Day; I wish to post a successful installation of FreeBSD 9.0 on a Dell Latitude D630 laptop. Base installation was from binaries on the -amd64 dvd.iso. Xorg and gnome from ports fetched via portsnap on 09/18/11. csup'd kernel and userland source yesterday. This is a fresh built custom kernel without debugging, SCSI or RAID modules. I do not know what this means 'GEOM_PART: Partition 'ada0p3' not suitable for kernel dumps (wrong type?)'. I am still investigating why Perl 5.12.4 dumped core at the end but otherwise the machine seems to be operating well. #> dmesg | more Copyright (c) 1992-2011 The FreeBSD Project.

I can say that I have had great success with the MFSBSD .iso available from; http://mfsbsd..vx.sk It is at version 8.2-RELEASE on both i386 and amd64. Setting up a ZFS only installation has worked without error on both Intel Core2 duo and amd64 (athlon64). I have had to do some ZFS tuning once the base system was installed. 4G of ram appears to be rather sparse on either architecture. Adding disks to the pools and changing the filesystem layouts to comply with my requirements was painless. Generally, it just worked. I was then able to csup the kernel source, userland, and ports tree. Keeping the ports tree current fixed most all of my build problems. Over the last year I have had machines on FreeBSD 8.0, PC BSD, NetBSD, kFreeBSD and back to FreeBSD 8.2-RELEASE (with ZFS) On the main workstation I use for testing, an AMD Athlon64 with 3G of ram, make buildkernel takes 30 - 40 minutes and make buildworld takes several hours. ZFS is ver. 15. I've found the docs available from SUN/Oracle to be very helpful. http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E19253-01/819-5461 Hope this helps somewhat.

freebsd zfs question
Good Day; A week or so ago I experienced an error trying to compile openoffice.org from ports. The build failed from an error I was since able to resolve. This machine is at #>uname -r rainey 8.2-RELEASE-p1 FreeBSD 8.2-RELEASE-p1 #2: Wed Apr 27 04:37:38 UTC 2011 michael@rainey:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/KERNEL_042511 amd64 During that episode the workstation locked up and the only way to recover was to do a hard reset (power off).

make all vs buildworld
Good Day; Can someone tell me what the difference between using /usr/src#>make buildworld vs /usr/src/#>make all. I know that FreeBSD uses make buildkernel and make buildworld to routinely build the kernel and userland. Yet, I had an issue with a recent buildworld (after buildkernel). It error'd out building a kerberos5 library and I lost patience trying to figure it out. I tried /usr/src#>make all and the build went to completion without error. What would I hurt if I then did /usr/src/#>make install?

Problem with an ATI x2900 video adapter
Good Day; I am in the final steps of completing a fresh installation of FreeBSD 8.2 on a workstation with a DFI LanParty motherboard, AMD Athlon 64 processor, 3 GB of ram, an ATI Radeon x2900 graphics card, and root on ZFS filesystem. Using ports.tar.gz downloaded, and src CVSup'd this morning, gnome2 is still compiling and installing. While I did have some minor issues with the build of some dependencies, it was nothing I could not work through. I was surprised this afternoon when, while the installation of gnome2 was working, I think it was building GCC 4.4 and friends, the HP 2010i LCD monitor I use on the machine appeared to lose the input to its DVI port. The HD activity light was still flickering so I let it continue and waited a hour or so for it to quit indicating activity before I pressed the reset button. The PC restarted and no filesystem errors were apparent on restart. I would like to know if anyone else has experienced this or, if a PR is necessary against the Xorg radeon driver.

Then, without any warning, it jumps abruptly into a discussion of how to update the base system with the 'freebsd-update' method. That method seemingly requires a GENERIC kernel to be present, which is what the paragraph you quoted mentions. But you're already past that point -- you've already updated your base system, and it seems that you built from source, so that paragraph isn't relevant, anyway. Just proceed with updating your ports.

was FreeBSD 8.1 success, now PC-BSD success
Good Day; I just completed a new PC-BSD install on the same machine I last posted a success message for FreeBSD 8.1. I do not have time to fiddle much right now and upgrading FreeBSD 8.1 from ports was giving me fits. But, living on the edge has it's price. I took the advise provided by responders to my original post and downloaded the PC-BSD net install CD and the dvd.iso (5 hours) then started the install early this evening. I got both so I would be prepared to install locally if the net install didn't work or, from the net if the DVD did not work. Both turned out to be true however. I burned 2 or 3 dvd's that panic'd shortly after the modules loaded. It did not matter whether I had ACPI enabled or not. The net install CD recognized my Intel EtherExpress Pro card but refused to start an FTP session to download the packages. I had a USB dvd-rom drive and thankfully I was able to use it to load base, packages, ports, and src from the dvd.iso after performing the setup from the CD. Initial impressions: 1. Nice installation program (I'm coming from the debian installer which seems to be the standard against which others are measured) 2. Sensible hard disk partitioner 'advanced' mode 3. Very cool logo 4. Xorg configured graphics on the first run 5. Do not like the default passwordless login I'm still running on the first tank of gas so I guess I will post when I've had more time behind the wheel.

I agree that removing /usr/ports when I have a major build issue is a
waste of bandwidth if, the issue is not due to a tainted ports tree. I
was just referencing an old(?) thread or howto that suggested it. This
procedure had fixed another build issue with a graphviz dependency in
the past so, I guess I took it to heart.
I appreciate the responses and maybe I should be on PCBSD. I'm not
running Apache2 or serving a couple hundred clients. I just wanted to

I have had a time installing applications from the ports tree (a story for another day) and finally resorted to installing binaries from the install dvd to get a working X distribution. I wanted to start with the 'minimal' set of packages and build from there. 3 trys at it failed at different points. At the moment I have the distributed binaries installed and am compiling/installing gcc 4.4 and friends. I have the current FreeBSD handbook but it does not seem to have the answer to the following question. When building and installing an application from ports, how does the original binary or script, in /usr/bin, /usr/lib, /etc..., from the distribution, get removed? The make install foo command does not appear to symlink the original application location to the new one in /usr/local/whatever. Does it even matter?

Correct build order for MIT krb5 and ssh
I'm not sure if this is the right group for this question, but I am still fairly new to FreeBSD so I thought I would start here first. I have been trying to get a working MIT Kerberos KDC on a server running 6.1-Release. I have been able to keep the heimdal version from being built during several past 'make worlds' and I have compiled and installed MIT krb5 from /usr/ports (current per portmanager). I have been getting an error tryiing to start sshd (also built from /usr/ports), it complains about not finding 'libkrb5.so.8' then exits. I have been able to start the KDC but have not gotten much further as I would like to fix the ssh problem first. My questions are as follows: 1. Is libkrb5.so.8 a heimdal library? 2. Which source directories are the correct ones to use, /usr/src/kerberos - /usr/src/secure, or /usr/ports/security/krb5 - /usr/ports/security/openssh? 3. Why are there two different directories i.e; /usr/src and /usr/ports for the same source? 4. How do I get 'kerberized' ssh and give configure directives to the krb5 make to include GSSAPI support? 5. Is there a certain build order for MIT kerberos and openssh? I have read both the Handbook and the 'Complete' book on this subject and have not been able to glean enough information to get me going, Google didn't help much either. I have 6 Debian clients, 2 WinXP clients, and 1 Debian KDC slave and wanted this machine to be an MIT-KDC master and yet avoid the apparent 'kadmin' server incompatibility between Heimdal and MIT Kerberos (which all the Debian clients run). I am also very comfortable with the MIT version. Any words of wisdom would be greatly appreciated.

Can't configure Xorg of FreeBSD 6.0 STABLE
Just got done installing FreeBSD 6.0 STABLE from CD on a Compaq Proliant 2500 formerly running RedHat FC4. Relatively painless install thank you, though, I have a steeper learning curve than anticipated. I am following the 2005 FreeBSD Handbook and successfully built a new kernel for this machine, which booted and enabled both processors. I was having a niggly problem with a drive so I had to reinstall. The problem I had on the first try has re-emerged on this install. I cannot get Xorg to start. I built a proper xorg.conf but when trying to 'startx' the xserver bombs with a logged 'xf86EnableIO: Failed to open /dev/io for extended I/O'. I googled one similar problem from a 5.4 install and it suggested building a kernel with 'device io'. It would seem that GENERIC would have this, though maybe not? I am using a PCI S3 Virge card not the onboard Cirrus video device. My other logs give no clue as to a device not found. In addition to the above, the handbook I have, suggests in Chap. 20 - The Cutting Edge, to do 'make buildworld', 'make buildkernel', and 'make install kernel'. Is this the normal order of things, even with a STABLE source tree?
