Mousewheel verschwunden

2008-04-13 Thread Seth Brundle
Hallo Liste,

nach Update auf RELENG_7 und Update der Ports ist nun mein Scrollrad
verschwunden... :-(

Ein wenig gegurgle zeigt mir hier, daß ich nicht der einzige bin --
allerdings habe ich keine Lösung finden können.

moused(8) läuft bei mir, zusammen mit fluxbox oder gnome2.

Hat irgendjemand das gleiche Problem gehabt und schon gelöst?

Vielen Dank  Grüße,

Ernst

Is it possible to mount OpenBSD FFS partitions in FreeBSD?

2007-12-31 Thread Seth Brundle
Hi list,

I'm in the mid of migrating my workstation from OpenBSD/amd64 to
FreeBSD/amd64. I have three hard discs installed in it (two identical
250GByte SATA300, and one 500GByte SATA300 drive).

When still running OpenBSD, I copied all data I want to transfer to the
500GByte drive; I plan to run the two 250GByte HDs as RAID1 when running
FreeBSD.

Prior to installing FreeBSD on this machine, I grabbed the 500GByte HD (with
one single OpenBSD FFS partition on it, 'wd2a' in OpenBSD speak) and tried
to mount it on a FreeBSD machine.

Unfortunately, this doesn't work, but I'm pretty sure it should. I probably
don't use the right parameter:

# mount /dev/ad8s1a /mnt/
mount: /dev/ad8s1a : No such file or directory

(I thought that the first -- and only -- partition on OpenBSD would show up
as 'slice 1' on FreeBSD.)

Help greatly appreciated -- thank you!

 (The disk area occupied by OpenBSD is a slice, whilst BSD-style chunk(s)

 Is it possible to mount it just with 'mount /dev/ad8s1 /mnt'?



Thanks for your fast reply;

# mount /dev/ad8s1 /mnt
mount: /dev/ad8s1 : No such file or directory

Also tried this before, doesn't work. The main problem for me is that I
don't know the way the OpenBSD disc appears to FreeBSD, layout-wise. A
``disklabel ad8'' to have a peek also doesn't work:

# disklabel ad8
disklabel: /dev/ad8: no valid label found

Thanks,

Seth

 Ah sorry, I misunderstood you; the ad8 is dedicated to OpenBSD in its

Yes. Just a big fat place to put files.

In that case I'm pretty sure that, in standard cases, it
 should be possible to mounted it as /dev/ad8. (Yes, you wrote that it's
 seen as wd2a from OpenBSD.)

 (Btw, what does 'ls /dev/ad*' show?)


What it should ;)

 # ls /dev/ad*
/dev/ad4/dev/ad4s1b /dev/ad4s1e /dev/ad6
/dev/ad4s1  /dev/ad4s1c /dev/ad4s1f /dev/ad6s4
/dev/ad4s1a /dev/ad4s1d /dev/ad4s1g /dev/ad8

 # disklabel ad8
  disklabel: /dev/ad8: no valid label found

 This is expected, BSD labels are not compatible among BSDs:

  The various BSDs all use slightly different versions of BSD labels
  and are not generally compatible.

 (from bsdlabel(8) manpage).


Thanks, didn't check it yet.

That's why you can't (by default) see BSD labels created by another
 BSD. However, I know that first partition of a NetBSD slice/disk can be
 mounted from FreeBSD _without_ partition-letter addition (e.g. ad8 will
 represent what you would expect to be ad8a -- it the disk is
 dedicated -- and ad8s1 will represent what you would expect to be
 ad8s1a -- if the disk is sliced), but maybe OpenBSD does something
 differently.


Obviously, yes. AFAIR they have their own identifier, too (read: There's a
NetBSD identifier as well as an OpenBSD one)...

Okay, I think I'll set up another machine running OpenBSD, migrate my
workstation to FreeBSD and copy the stuff over the net... (Most convenient
way, AFAICS.)

Thanks, Nikola! :)

 Just for the record, 'mount /dev/ad8 /mnt' works?



No, unfortunately not:
