Or you may have also upgraded the linux_base-x.x port
on your computer, but did not tell your other ports
that rely on it, that you did so. You can fix this by
doing a 
portupgrade -rR linux_base-x.x

I remember this was discussed on this list about 6
months ago. At that time someone said, to the best of
my rerecollectionthat all you have to do is take out
all ipipvsupport out of the kernel and the problem
will stop. There were a couple of steps needed to be
performed and if someone knows it would be appreciated
if you could resubmit it to the list.

Ahh ok. What confused me was that there were similar
looking statements already contained in the
syslog.conf file.

With that in mind I now see the purpose of all of the
commands except the last one. For what reason does one
have to perform

kill -HUP `cat /var/run/syslogd.pid`

In other words why must one stop the syslogd daemon?
It will only start up again upon the next reboot. 

And one more question. after doing the above things,
to see the the full listing of boot up messages does
one still only need to do a dmesg?

Thanks again.

I don't understand what exactly is being suggested
here.

The part I don't understand is what is being said to
done with

Are you suggesting that we add those comments to the
file, which obviously does not make sense. Or are you
suggesting that we uncomment those lines, but in which
case does not make sense because those lines don't
exist in my file. Or are you suggesting that we add
those lines in uncommented form to the file.

What? NO! I downloaded the skeleton. The tarball goes

Stop in /usr/ports/www/flashpluginwrapper.

Does anyone know what is going on? Is it saying that I
don't have the patches? But that does not make sense
because I would think all of the patches should have
been provided in the skeleton code I downloaded.

I didn't use the ports. I just got the tarball,
untarballed it, did a make, make install, which
basically put lib/libflashplayer.so.1
into /usr/local/lib .   Then followed the directions
in the info file which entailed 

cp /usr/local/lib/flash/libflashplayer.so \
   
/usr/X11R6/lib/mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer_linux.so


cp /usr/local/lib/flash/ShockwaveFlash.class \
/usr/X11R6/lib/mozilla/plugins/

and putting

LD_PRELOAD=/usr/local/lib/libflashplayer.so.1
export LD_PRELOAD

at the top of the file /usr/X11R6/bin/mozilla

just below the shebang

But I guess some more magic is required that the ports
takes care of. I did see in the ports makefile there
is a post patch section so like you say maybe some
patching is required. I was under the understanding
that this program was written specifialy for freebsd,
and thought it would not need patching. Well guess I
will use the port. Thanks for the help.

I followed the directions in the info file and mozilla
still doesn't recognize the plugin. Strangly when I
logged out of gnome I got the following error msg
which may help

Failed to initialize share library
/usr/X11R6/lib/mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer_linux.so
 [undefied symbol "__strtol_internal"]

anyone know what is going on?  Thanks

Hi,

I downloaded the flashpluginwrapper tarball,
untarballed it, and /usr/local/lib/libflashplayer.so.1
exits. What additional things do I need to do to get

Actually 

apmd_enable="YES"

will suffice (man apmd) since apmd will enable apm
(whatever that means) each time it starts up. enabling
both apmd and apm in rc.conf won't hurt, it is just
redundant.

Iwill kk400 with VIA KT400 chipset support?

2002-12-24 Thread Wayne Lubin
Hi,

Was wondering how safe it is to get a mobo with the
VIA KT400 chipset, i.e. does FreeBSD support this
chipset yet?. For example I am considering the Iwill
KK400.

Thanks!

apm

2002-12-07 Thread Wayne Lubin
Hi,

Sleep mode works when I manually do apm -z or
equivalently zzz. The problem is it is not
automatically invoked when the computer is idol for 20
mins. which I have set my bios for.  

dmesg gives:

apm0:  on motherboard
apm: found APM BIOS v1.2, connected at v1.2

so the device is being detected.


/etc/rc.conf has got the line:

apmd_enable="YES"


/etc/apmd.conf has got:

apm_event SUSPENDREQ {
exec "/etc/rc.suspend";
}

apm_event USERSUSPENDREQ {
exec "sync && sync && sync";
exec "sleep 1";
exec "apm -z";
}

apm_event NORMRESUME, STANDBYRESUME {
exec "/etc/rc.resume";
}


/etc/rc.suspend looks like:

if [ -r /var/run/rc.suspend.pid ]; then
exit 1
fi

echo $$ > /var/run/rc.suspend.pid

# If you have troubles on suspending with PC-CARD
modem, try this.
# See also contrib/pccardq.c (Only for PAO users).
# pccardq | awk -F '~' '$5 == "filled" && $4 ~ /sio/ \
#   { printf("pccardc power %d 0", $1); }' | sh

logger -t apmd suspend at `date +'%Y%m%d %H:%M:%S'`
sync && sync && sync
sleep 3

rm -f /var/run/rc.suspend.pid
zzz

exit 0


/etc/rc.resume looks like:

if [ -r /var/run/rc.suspend.pid ]; then
kill -9 `cat /var/run/rc.suspend.pid`
rm -f /var/run/rc.suspend.pid
echo 'rc.suspend is killed'
fi

# Turns on a power supply of a card in the slot
inactivated.
# See also contrib/pccardq.c (only for PAO users).
# pccardq | awk -F '~' '$5 == "inactive" \
#   { printf("pccardc power %d 1", $1); }' | sh

logger -t apmd resumed at `date +'%Y%m%d %H:%M:%S'`
sync && sync && sync

exit 0


I think that is most of the important info. Any help? Thanks.

I think the best thing to do is look at the man page
for gs and look at the sDEVICE swith options which
tells you basicaly which printers it will support. And
buy a printer that it supports and then all you have
to do when you want to print something is convert it
to postscript and then give it to ps to print it. Well
at least this way works for me.

So is it just that the c code is not provided for a
release version as it is for current at

ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/FreeBSD-current/src/

and

ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/FreeBSD-current/ports/

If this is the case it seems very weird. If someone
could explain the rational for this it would be
greatly appreciated.

If cvsup is so superior to ftp, then why do both
current and stable exist in both cvsup and ftp form?
And whatever the reason for providing current and
stable in both cvsup and ftp form, why doesn't 4.7
release exist in both forms for the same reasons?

I have already been to the references that you point
out and they are not helpful. And BTW why is it that
you assumed that I had not been to them? Let me
restate what it is I am looking for. I am looking for
the ftp site that has the 4.7 release sourses much
like 

ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/FreeBSD-current/

has the sources for current. I know this seems like
simplistic and newbie in nature type of question, but
it is beginning to turn out to be far from it. As of
yet neither I nor anyone else has seem to point me
into a definitive direction in this matter.

Hi,

I am not quite sure I understand. If this is the ftp
server that holds the 4.7 release sources, then why is
it in a folder called 4.0-stable ?

I am looking for the ftp server where I can ftp in and
grab the sources and ports for 4.7 release in the same
way you can with current by going to 

ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/FreeBSD-current/src/

and

ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/FreeBSD-current/ports/

After all, all cvsup, or cvs, or CTM does is go and
updates your /usr/ports and /usr/src folder, and maybe
your doc folder, doesn't it? In other words I am
currently not interested in using cvsup, or CTM, or
anything else. I am only interested in using ftp.

Hi,

ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/4.7-RELEASE/src/

has funny looking files that end in .aa .aw and stuff
like that. Where is the c code?

Hi,

Could not find fvcool in the ports. Has it been

Re: A curious dmesg output entry

2002-10-17 Thread Wayne Lubin
Two questions.

In my config file I have the apm0 device uncommented
but it does not show up during a dmesg. Is that OK?
Should the apm0 device NOT show up during a dmesg?

Also, what does this apm0 device do? In LINT is says

apm: Laptop Advanced Power Management (experimental)

and so it seems that it is for laptops, and not for my
"full size" pc.  And so it seems that it should do
nothing for this kind of computer.

In fact I have gone into the CMOS and enabled "stanby
mode" to engage after 20 mins. of idle time. But I
have noticed that my computer never does to into
standy mode.

Thanks for the help.

Evidently top posting is not a good thing. Ok from now
on I will try and remember to bottom post on any
future threads I participate in.

Jack,

I am not clear on what you are trying to say here. In
my config file I have the following line

device  apm0at nexus? disable flags 0x20 #
Advanced Power Management


Are you saying that it should actually be


device apm0at nexus? flags 0x20 #
 Advanced Power Management

?? In other words I need to take out the word disable?
If so kind of weird that they would have it be like
that. 

Thanks for the help.

Re: A curious dmesg output entry

2002-10-16 Thread Wayne Lubin

Yeah I do have that driver compiled into my kernel.I
guess that explains why my computer is alway on full
throdle. It will probably blow out in about six months
at this rate.  Well since freebsd does not recognize
my built in power management card, I wonder if someone
makea power management cards separately that are not
integrated on a mother board that freebsd would
recognize. I think the power management stuff is
important because if I am not mistaken it handles all
the standby mode stuff which not only safes power, but
also saves wear and tear.

So does that means that this ACPI Power Management
Controller is not supported by freebsd? Or does it
mean that I need to compile the corresponding device
driver into the kernel and then it will be
recognized by freebsd?

A curious dmesg output entry

2002-10-16 Thread Wayne Lubin

Hi,

I have this line in my dmesg output

pci0:  (vendor=0x1106, dev=0x3057) at
7.4

but the only cards that I have is one ethernet pci
card, and my video card that is in the AGP slot. And
they are being properly detected.

Can this  be some functionality built
into the mother bord that wants to access the pci
buss? Because all of my pci cards are physicaly
plugged into the pci slots are accounted for.

Thanks,

Wayne

I am having the exact problem as this guy, and I tried
your suggestion

mount_msdos /dev/fd0 /mnt   

as root and I still get 

/dev/fd0: Device not configured

As I discussed in an earlier email that the fd0
device is not showing up on dmesg. Can it be that I
burnt out the floppy drive and now at boot up the
floppy is not being detected?

floppy problems

2002-10-15 Thread Wayne Lubin

Hi,

I used to mount my msdos floppy with the command

mount -t msdos /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy

but then after forgetting to umount it before shutting
the system down one evening I now get the error
message

msdos: /dev/fd0: Device not configured

dmesg lists only the following device that I think
pertains to the floppy

fdc0:  at port 0x3f0-0x3f5,0x3f7
irq 6 drq 2 on isa0

Furthurmore /dev does contain devices fd0 but does NOT
contain fdc0.

I even tried the following command

mount -t msdos /dev/fd0.1440 /mnt/floppy

and got the same error message

msdos: /dev/fd0.1440: Device not configured

and yes /dev/fd0.1440 does exist.

Also I tried 

mount -t msdos /dev/fdc0 /mnt/floppy

and get the error message 

msdos: /dev/fdc0: No such file or directory

Should I just remake the fd0 driver? If so do I just
first delete the current fd0 first and then do a
MAKEDEV? Or do you think maybe that my floppy hardware
is shot because I am no longer getting the fd0 driver
listed during a dmesg printout.

Thanks for your help.

Gnome does not turn on with startx on user account anymore

2002-10-14 Thread Wayne Lubin

Hi,

Starting today, when I do a startx on my user account
the gui turns on to the point of a deep blue color
screen with an X for a mouse pointer and that is it.
Nothing else loads or is on the screen. No controls
either and had to recycle the power and use the root
account to use my browser and write this message. Any
logs that I can look at that will give me a clue as to
what is going on or does anyone have an idea as to
what is going on? 

You may recall that I also have another thread on this
mailing list that states that I was using an msdos
formatted floppy and forgot to umount it before
turning my machine off one time and now when I try to
mount the floppy with a 

mount -t msdos /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy

I get the error msg 

msdos: /dev/fd0: Device not configured

Not sure if the two are connected, but even when I am
logged in as root as I am now I still get the same
msg. But my biggest problem now is this gnome problem.


Thanks for your help on figuring out what the heck is
going on.

Re: trouble mounting floppy

2002-10-13 Thread Wayne Lubin

So I guess my question is what does it mean that
/dev/fd0 is not configured and how can I get it
configured so that I can start mounting it again.

Thanks.

trouble mounting floppy

2002-10-13 Thread Wayne Lubin

Hi,

I have been mounting my floppy drive for a long time.
However, now when I do a 

mount -t msdos /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy

it gives me the error msg 

mount: /dev/fd0: Device not configured

It may have to do with the fact that the last time I
mounted the floppy I turned off the computer without
umount ing it.  Thanks for you help.

Re: adding a path to gcc to find #include type includes

But PalmOS.h includes header files who as well are not
in standard locations.

Re: adding a path to gcc to find #include type includes

2002-10-05 Thread Wayne Lubin

I installed prc-tools from the ports. I am using
freebsd 4.6.

so I made a little work directory and downloaded some
palm code and tried to compile Main.c as shown below.
Main.c has the following includes

#include 
#include 

I get the error mesagaes

Main.c:13: BuildDefines.h: No such file or directory
Main.c:17: PalmOS.h: No such file or directory

In other words it is not finding the files. But these
files are in 

/usr/local/palmdev/sdk-3.5/include

In fact, PalmOS.h and BuildDefines.h include more
files that are in
/usr/local/palmdev/sdk-3.5/include/Core/

So there are a bunch of header files for palm
programming that are based at
/usr/local/palmdev/sdk-3.5  and may be stuck even
deaper in folders contained in
/usr/local/palmdev/sdk-3.5/include/

Seems like there has to be a way to add a search path
to gcc to look for included files that are of the type
#include .  It would be a pain if I had to
manually put all the needed files into /usr/include.

Hope this is enough info. Let me know if you need
more. Thanks.

Wayne

adding a path to gcc to find #include type includes

2002-10-05 Thread Wayne Lubin

Hi,

I grabbed the prc-tools development environment for
the palmos. The problem is the palm has a bunch of its
own header files and a lot of code includes them in
the #include type of include. But the files
live in the palmdev folder, but gcc doesn't look there
by default of course. I tried to play with the -I
switch like so

gcc -c -I /usr/local/palmdev/ -o Main.o Main.c

but that doesn't work. The man page says something
about using -I- along with -I to get it to do what I
want, but I did not understand the man page. Anyone
know what I should do? Is there a way to add the path
to gcc itself so that I wouldn't even have to do it
each time on the command line? Thanks.

Re: palm pose rom

2002-10-02 Thread Wayne Lubin

Sorry, forgot to mention that I don't own a palm. And
therefore I must get my rom from elsewhere, namely, I
thought the palmos site. but even so, you still may
want to program for many different palms, and hence
even if you own a palm, may want various different
rom.

Hi,

I went to the palmos.com site to get some rom for my
pose, but the only rom they seemed to have were for
windows or mac. Where do I get my rom from? Thanks.
