No new snapshot of 5-CURRENT anymore?

2004-08-01 Thread Rostislav Krasny
Hello there.

Sometimes I'm trying new snapshots of 5-CURRENT from
ftp://current.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/snapshots/i386/ on my box. The
latest snapshot of 5-CURRENT there is 5.2-CURRENT-20040710-JPSNAP now;
i.e. there was no new snapshot for about a month. May it be some
problem of the building machine? According to the build logs from
ftp://current.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/snapshots/i386/log/ there always
was the same problem until today:

cc -O -pipe -I. -DIN_GCC -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -DPREFIX=\"/usr\"

-lm
/usr/lib/libm.so: undefined reference to `__isnanl'

Does somebody know when building of the snapshots will be
reconditioned?

Thanks

i386 assembly language question

2004-01-19 Thread Rostislav Krasny
I thought that I found a typo in the arch-handbook and I wrote about
that to the freebsd-doc mailing list. You can read that email at
http://docs.freebsd.org/cgi/mid.cgi?20040117005106.21558.qmail
I didn't get any response yet. Maybe I'm missing something and this
isn't a typo? What is "posh" instruction? :-))

GCC 3.4.0 and FreeBSD base distibution

2004-01-20 Thread Rostislav Krasny
Hello everebody.

As you can see at http://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-3.4/index.html the GNU project
is preparing to release their next major release version of GCC. There
is a list of changes this release will implement. You can read it at
http://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-3.4/changes.html  My question is about the first
change that is declared in that list:

GNU Make is now required to build GCC

Does it mean that GNU Make will be a part of FreeBSD base distribution
or GCC will be patched so it can be build by the standard (IEEE Std
1003.1) make? As far as I know FreeBSD's make conforms to this
standard, almost.

Thanks

Error during restarting syslogd in FreeBSD 5.2-RELEASE

2004-01-29 Thread Rostislav Krasny
Hello

I have FreeBSD 5.2-RELEASE installed on my old Pentium system. Look at
following log please:

localhost# /etc/rc.d/syslogd restart
Stopping syslogd.
ps: kvm_getprocs: No such process
Starting syslogd.


What is 'kvm_getprocs' and why I get this error message? Is it a bug?

Thanks

Should I send PR about this problem or maybe it was already fixed in CURRENT?

moderator approval in moderated FreeBSD mailing list

2004-02-09 Thread Rostislav Krasny
Hello

At Sun, 08 Feb 2004 16:38:31 +0200 I sent an email to 
[EMAIL PROTECTED] Because this is a moderated mailing list my 
email is being held until the list moderator can review it for approval. 
 Either the message will get posted to the list, or I will receive
notification of the moderator's decision. That is what written on the 
auto-reply email I got immediately after I sent my email. Already 
elapsed more than 22 hours but my email isn't posted and I didn't 
receive any notification about moderator's decision. How long time it 
would take yet?

Can I become a member of some FreeBSD mailing list but not receive

Members of freebsd-current mailing list are probably too busy, so I'm 
forwarding my question to more dynamic freebsd-questions mailing list. 
Is my guess about the /src/release/Makefile right or wrong?

BTW when 5.2.1-RC2 is going to be released? I saw few cvs commits with 
preparation to this release.

Thanks

this installation. This problem is always repeatable, even after I made 
the floppies on different diskettes. This system doesn't have any AMD or

Could it be a result of revision 1.825.2.2 of the /src/release/Makefile
that adds a 'strip -x' run on the kernel modules on the mfsroot floppy?

Is it a bug

Hello. I didn't use FreeBSD with SMB much, so I'm not sure it is a bug

[bsdinstall] Precise disk slicing

Hi,

Previously in the sysinstall there was possible to define the start and the
end LBA addresses of the new slice (new MBR partition). I didn't find how
to do that in the bsdinstall. Is it possible?

PPPoE and troubles with TCP

2002-12-26 Thread Rostislav Krasny
Hello

I have Alcatel Speedtouch Home ADSL modem. I use PPPoE protocol for
connection with my Internet Service Provider (ISP) through this ADSL
modem. I use FreeBSD 4.7-RELEASE and ppp (a.k.a. user-ppp) for this. In
the /etc/ppp/ppp.conf file I have ' set MRU 1492' and ' set MTU 1492'
options. This is because the maximum MTU one can use with PPPoE is 1492
according to RFC 2516. I have no problems with "dialing" to my ISP. But
after the PPPoE connection is established I have troubles with TCP
connections to some hosts. For example I can't go to
hhtp://www.ssh.com/  but to http://www.freebsd.org/ or
http://www.gnu.org/ I can. If I run 'telnet www.ssh.com 80' and enter
HTTP request according to HTTP 1.1 or 1.0 protocol I don't get any
answer. If I enter just 'GET /' I get some short answer. 'GET /' is an
HTTP request according to the old HTTP 0.9 version of the protocol and
it is rarely used today. But the problem is not HTTP, I think. If I do
HTTP request according to HTTP 1.1 from my friends' computer I do have
some long answer. Furthermore if I change the MRU and MTU to 1484 or
smaller I have no problem with www.ssh.com. So it looks like TCP packet
overflow or something like that.
Besides FreeBSD I have Windows 98 Second Edition in my computer. I use
PPPoE with Win98SE too. I use RASPPPOE driver fo it, go to
http://www.raspppoe.com/  for more information. I have no problems with
www.ssh.com when I use Win98SE with this impimentation of PPPoE
protocol. I have MTU == 1492 set by default in RASPPPOE. I don't get
error messages about fragmentation when I run 'ping -f -l 1464
www.ssh.com' in my Win98SE (ICMP+IP=1464+28=1492). Why in FreeBSD I
cannot use MTU == 1492 without problems with some hosts like
www.ssh.com ? How to fix it in FreeBSD?

P.S. ping have different syntax in Windows, so don't be wondered about
-f flag. -f sets "no fragmentation" flag in IP headers of all outgoing packets.

I configured my ADSL modem to work with PPPoE. Then I changed the
/etc/ppp/ppp.conf file to this one:

 /etc/ppp/ppp.conf 
default:
set log Phase Chat LCP IPCP CCP tun command
ident user-ppp VERSION (built COMPILATIONDATE)

set device  PPPoE:ed0
set speed   sync
#   set MRU 1484
#   set MTU 1484
set MRU maximum 1492
set MTU maximum 1492
set timeout 0
set urgent  none# no priorities
enable  dns # request DNS info (for
resolv.conf)
disable ipv6 ipv6cp
disable shortseq protocomp acfcomp vjcomp deflate pred1
mppe
denyshortseq protocomp acfcomp vjcomp deflate pred1
mppe

myisp:
set authnameusername@ISPstring
set authkey password
add default HISADDR # Add a (sticky) default route
 /etc/ppp/ppp.conf 

The hostname of my box can be resolved through /ets/hosts , so I don't
need any kind of 'set ifaddr' in /etc/ppp/ppp.conf file. ed0 is the
ethernet NIC my ADSL modem is connected to.

Many lines of the "default:" section of the ppp.conf file are not critical.
The only ones you need are these:

set device  PPPoE:ed0
set MRU maximum 1492
set MTU maximum 1492
enable  dns

See `man 8 ppp` for more information.

So, your FreeBSD box is within your LAN and have do dial with ADSL at all,
only your router have. Your box have internal LAN's IP 192.168.1.8 and
your router configured to do network address and port translation.
This network configuration is completely different from my one.
I have a modem, not a router.

RASPPPOE in my Win98SE have such option enabled by default. It's described
there to solve problem with ICS (Internet Connection Sharing). I don't see
any difference when it is disabled or enabled. RASPPPOE works just good
with MTU == 1492 in my Win98SE. However my FreeBSD in the same box have
troubles with TCP when I use PPPoE with MTU == 1492.
The configuration of TCP MSS in my FreeBSD is default, I didn't change it.

>   You have disabled encryption and compression right?

Yes, all types of compression and encryption are disabled, see my previous
post with /etc/ppp/ppp.conf there.

P.S. PPPoE use 8 bytes in each ethernet packet this is the reason why 1492
is the maximum MTU with PPPoE. I found that MTU == 1484 solve my problem,
read my previous posts. But, 1484 = 1492 - 8 ! It looks like double PPPoE
usage or lack of correspondence to the standard of PPPoE protocol
described in RFC 2516.
Maybe PPPoE implementation in FreeBSD have a bug?

Re: X11/xterm Unicode woes

2006-04-13 Thread Rostislav Krasny
> About a month ago UTF-8 locale stopped working in my xterm.

I experience the same problem after the xterm port had been updated
from 206 to 210 version. As a workaround you can either: downgrade to
xterm-206 or use uxterm. I'm suspecting following change of xterm-209:

amend change for loading utf8Fonts resource from patch #204 to allow an
ISO-8859-1 "normal" font to be combined with an ISO-10646 font if the
latter is given via the -fw option or its corresponding resource value.

But I'm not sure. I've already contacted with Thomas Dickey
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, the xterm author, and sent him a trace file of
manually built xterm-212. I hope he will localize and fix the bug before
the next xterm release.
