Website Partnership Offer

2007-02-18 Thread Your Name

I have found your website http://www.freebsddiary.org
when searching the web on the topics related to my website 
theme.I must say your website content is very good and I 
think we would benefit much from possible partnership - for 
three way link exchange. This would bring more targeted 
traffic to our sites, plus increase our websites'weight at 
the search engines, as they give greater value to the links 
from the topic-related sites rather than irrelevant 
backlinks.My website http://www.vpntools.com is definitely related to 
yours.

I would be glad to exchange a link with your content page in 
return to you, I will also add your link in one of our content pages of
our site  
http://www.networkingcertifications.com. 
Our Link details:

Link title: Vpn Port
Link url: http://www.vpntools.com/vpntools_articles/network-ports.htm 

Feel free to email me direct to [EMAIL PROTECTED] to 
discuss the details on the possible partnership.
Hope for the fruitful cooperation,

Best regards,
catherine

 Subject: Re: USB/multi-wheel mice conf files if anyone wants them 
  
  In case it is of any help to anyone, I recently got two of my mice 
  running on FreeBSD 5.4 with Xorg, and I could post the Xorg conf  
  files I ended up using. 
 
 It will help.  Please post them. 
  
 Paul Schmehl ([EMAIL PROTECTED])

I guess I was reading the thread about USB mice with some anxiety, 
since I have had no difficulties with them. It seems to be a matter of 
finding the correct driver and port; but it generally comes down 
to /dev/sysmouse for me. 
 
Here are the config files I use for my USB mice. I am using Xorg. 
 
For my A4Tech Optical GreatEye wheel mouse, model WOP-35PU: 
(This has 4 buttons and 2 wheels; the wheels are for up/down and 
right/left scrolling.) 
 
For newbies to this (and I am no expert, either!), be advised that the 
first section of the xorg.conf file must have the correct references 
to the mouse section or else it will almost certainly not find your 
settings correctly. So for the A4Tech, it looks like: 
 
Section ServerLayout 
(Identifier stuff here) 
(Screen stuff here) 
InputDeviceMouse0 CorePointer 
(InputDevice stuff here) 
EndSection 
 
[some other sections in here] 
 
Section InputDevice 
 Identifier Mouse0 
 Driver mouse 
 Option Protocol auto 
 Option Device /dev/sysmouse 
 Option SendCoreEvents true 
 Option Buttons 9 
 Option ZAxisMapping 4 5 6 7 
EndSection 
 
-- 
 
For my Starlogic 8D Mini Scrolling mouse... 
This may not be available any more under that brand, but I I recently 
bought the same thing branded as Compaq USB Trackball/Optical Mouse 
model CPQ650TP. I use it on my laptop because it's smaller and I don't 
need as much desktop area to move it around. 
 
Section ServerLayout 
(Identifier stuff here) 
(Screen stuff here) 
InputDeviceMouse0 CorePointer 
(InputDevice stuff here) 
EndSection 
 
[some other sections in here] 
 
Section InputDevice 
 Identifier Mouse0 
 Driver mouse 
 Option Protocol auto 
 Option Device /dev/sysmouse 
 Option SendCoreEvents true 
 Option Buttons 7 
 Option ZAxisMapping 4 5 6 7 
EndSection 
 
--- 
 
I had to do some guessing (i.e., trial and error) to determine how 
many buttons xorg thinks it sees coming from the mice. 
 
Hope this helps! 
 
Kind regards and Happy Holidays! 
 
Rob, thanks for the advice about CVSupping. I'm updating my ports 
collection now. 
 
Cheers, 
-- paz. 
 
P.S. - I'm looking for a suggestion for a CD ripper; or perhaps I'm 
not using KAudioCreator right. If I select all the tracks on a CD, it 
blarfs when it is trying to rip the second or third track while 
simultaneously converting the first track to .mp3 or whatever.

gtk2-2.2.1-4.i386.rpm not available

2005-12-24 Thread Your Name
Greetings - 
 
I was attempting to load a few ports over the past couple of days and 
kept running into this problem with gtk2-2.2.1-4.i386.rpm. 
 
(Running FBSD 5.4) 
 
Earlier today, I tried loading the pips-sc60s driver. 
(/usr/ports/print/pips-sc60s) This driver (if I had been succesful 
installing it) would have permitted me to use my Epson C60 printer. 
Installation of the pips-sc60s driver failed. For reasons I don't 
understand, this port tries to install linuxpluginwrapper, 
linux-flashplugin6, linux-realplayer... (?) The whole process failed: 
 
= Attempting to fetch from 
ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/distfiles/rpm/. 
fetch: 
ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/distfiles/rpm/gtk2-2.2.1-4.i386.rpm: 
File unavailable (e.g., file not found, no access) 
= Couldn't fetch it - please try to retrieve this 
= port manually into /usr/ports/distfiles/rpm and try again. 
*** Error code 1

*** Error code 1 
 
Stop in /usr/ports/www/linuxpluginwrapper. 
*** Error code 1 
 
Stop in /usr/ports/print/pips-sc60s. 
 
 
 
Later, I tried installing flashpluinwrapper and linuxpluginwrapper (at 
different times to see if I could manually get these dependencies 
resolved, deinstalling the dregs of one before attempting the 
installation of the other) in an attempt to get RealPlayer running on 
my system. I received a similar failure message:

ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/distfiles/rpm/. 
fetch:

*** Error code 1 
 
Stop in /usr/ports/www/linuxpluginwrapper. 
 
--- 
 
My /var/db/pkg area thinks that I have the following installed: 
gtk-1.2.10_12 
gtk-2.6.4_1 
 
So I don't know why those apps seem to need gtk2-2.2.1-4 when 2.6.4.1 
is already installed. And I don't understand why these bits of 
software will not install properly. 
 
Suggestions appreciated.

USB/multi-wheel mice conf files if anyone wants them

2005-12-24 Thread Your Name
 
In case it is of any help to anyone, I recently got two of my mice 
running on FreeBSD 5.4 with Xorg, and I could post the Xorg conf files 
I ended up using. 
 
One of the mice is an A4Tech Optical GreatEye, which has two mice 
wheels. One is for up-and -down, the other wheel is for right-to-left 
manipulation. 
 
The other mouse is a Starlogic mini trackball (optical) mouse. It's 
small and has a small trackball on top instead of mice wheels. (Compaq 
markets basically the same design as the Starlogic.) This means that I 
can do the up-down or side-to-side scrolling with the trackball. 
 
It is such a pleasure to be using FreeBSD with these newer, optical 
mice with multiple scroll wheels (or the trackball). 
 
Cheers,

Printing to OSX shared printer?

2005-06-24 Thread Your Name
i have CUPS set up on my FreeBSD 4.11 box, but i've
never used it (i've never printed at all from this
machine).

i want to bring this computer into a home network with
Macs running OSX. if you bring a Mac into this
network,
it sees all the printers that are avaibale and you can
select one to print to, andit just works. is there a
way
to do this with CUPS, or do i have to figure out the
netowrk address of the shared printer and all that
hard
stuff? i'm running GNOME also--is there any printer
utility with that? (i dont see one).

i'm looking for the simplest answer to printing from
this, not trying to do anything fancy.

Thanks!

Jen

 In theory Mac OSX uses CUPS for printing, so you
 should be able to plug
 things in and have them work.

thanks, i guess i wasn't being clear. if i bring
another Mac onto the network, and try to print from
it, i'll see all the shared printers and i can choose
whichever one i want.

if I have my FreeBSD machine, how do i see these
printers? maybe its there but i don't know about it.
when i go to the CUPS admin page to add a printer, at 
http://localhost:631/admin/?op=add-printer
i get blanks for name, location, description. but i
don't know about any possible printers, i just want to
see a list that i can choose from. 

the CUPS manual isnt clear on this, it just says if
your running OSX then everything will work. but i have
no idea how to find the name and address of any
printer that happens to be on the network.

Copying DVD's for HD playback

2005-05-25 Thread Your Name
i can play DVD's fine using mplayer. i can also copy
them fine by using cp -r and i get a bunch of files
and the
 .vob ones i can play with mplayer and i don't know
what the .bup or .ifo ones are but it doesnt seem to
matter.

But the files dont play together --i cant skip from
chapter to chapter this way, or use the menus.

Is there a way to copy a DVD to a HD so that its just
like the whole DVD, but on the HD?

This is just so i can watch movies on a plane without
burning through my whole battery.

Thanks.

Mozilla problems afetr upgrade

2005-04-28 Thread Your Name
i just portupgraded Mozilla to 1.7.7,2 and several
problems have come up.

when i try to open preferences, i get a Gecko pop-up
window  that says:

 XML Parsing Error: not well-formed
 Location: 
chrome://communicator/content/pref/pref.xul
 Line Number 1, Column 1:

also, i can no longer type text into the URL box and
hit the down arrow to do a search--even if i have
things 
in the box it says (Search Google for (null)). and
the find in page function works only sometimes.

i didn't see any other reports about this--i think my
ports are all up to date.

Portinstalling fonts without X

2005-02-05 Thread Your Name
i am trying to install some truetype font ports
(bitstream-vera, xorg-fonts-truetype) onto a server
that 
is not running X. i only want the fonts, so that they
can be used by programs running on the server like to 
generate images in CGI scripts with particular fonts
and stuff like that.

When i use portinstall, it tries to install fontconfig
and then it wants to suck down XFree86, even though i
have WITHOUT_X11=true in /etc/make.conf.

How can i just get the fonts without X, which i don't
need?

Thanks!

X problems after upgrade to 6.8.1

2004-12-23 Thread Your Name
Hi,

i just upgraded a FreeBSD 5.3 box to Xorg 6.8.1 and it
went perfectly smoothly, then i tried to upgrade a

i just did the usual portupgrade -rR xorg, and the
entire build process worked fine with no errors. But
when i restarted gdm, it died with the following in my

work either.

thanks for help on what to do,

CVSup basics?

2004-11-08 Thread Your Name
Hi, i realize this is really basic, but i dont
actually know how cvsup works when youre not calling
it through cvsup. 

What i mean is, when i want to update things i do cd
/usr/ports  make update or 
cd /usr/src  make update, i dont do cvsup
directly.

What i assume is my working supfile is
/usr/src/supfile-current. i want to change this to
RELENG-5 instead of ., 
but i should probably change the name. But i cant
figure out how to know WHICH supfile is called when i
just do cd /usr/src  make update. 

Also where do i put the refuse file, for ports?

Thanks! i didnt see this in the HandBook.

 The 'make update' behaviour is controlled by the
 following variable in
 /etc/make.conf:
 
 SUP_UPDATE= yes
 SUP=/usr/local/bin/cvsup
 SUPFLAGS=   -g -L 2
 SUPHOST=cvsup.uk.freebsd.org
 SUPFILE=   
 /usr/share/examples/cvsup/stable-supfile
 PORTSSUPFILE=  
 /usr/share/examples/cvsup/ports-supfile
 DOCSUPFILE=
 /usr/share/examples/cvsup/doc-supfile
 
 Of those variables, it's really only the last four
 that you need to
 think about what to set them to -- the others should
 be set to the
 values shown here.

Thank You!!!

Thats exactly what i meant. Thanks to the other people
who replied, but this is my point-i have cvsup and it
works, i didnt know that it was make.conf that
controlled thing.s Now i can figure out what to
change.

OpenOffice freezing on 5.2-CURRENT

2004-10-01 Thread Your Name
Hi. i just installed OpenOffice 1.1.2 from a package;
i need to work with some PowerPoint presentations and
it seemed the best way.

It looked like the install went fine, but now i cant
seem to actually do anything with it. When it runs,
the initial screen comes up but if i select the open
dialog box it just freezes. Some other options go a
bit longer--i can choose New-Presentation and that
pops up an AutoPilot window, but after selecting one
or two things that freezes too. None of these give any
kind of crash report.

i did the install as suggested, and there wasnt
anything useful in the README (i did try to unset
SESSION_MANAGER as suggested--im running GNOME--but it
didnt work).

What do i do? And if i cant get this working is there
some other PowerPoint thing I can use, or a PowerPoint
to HTML converter?

Thanks!

Frequent crashes with Mozilla and Firefox

2004-08-16 Thread Your Name
In the last few weeks ive started getting a number of
crashes using either Mozilla or Firefox. im using the 
newest version of each from Ports, on FreeBSD 4.9.

It typically happens when i visit a complicated
website with lots of dynamically-generated content,
like the N.Y.
Times or eBay. But its not regular; i can restart the
browser and go back to the same page and it could then
just work.

There isnt anything useful in the logs, at least,
/var/log/messages sometimes has a core dump, and 
sometimes has nothing, but it never has anything
detailed.

Sorry to be nonspecific but i cant seem to figure out
a good pattern, other than a complicated webpage. Also

im not sure what i changed when it first started. But
i am fully up to date.

Thanks for your help!

Updating Emacs without installing X?

i have a server that's running FreeBSD 4.7 and the
security patches are up to date but most software
hasn't been upgraded in a long time. im trying to do
some basic maintenance and there are some problems.

First i want to upgrade Emacs from an older version,
but when i try to do this from ports it starts trying
to 
install a whole bunch of X stuff. This is just a
server box, and i dont want to have _any_ X running on
it. Is
there a way i can get Emacs current? i didn't
originally set this machine up, but Emacs is installed
from Ports
and theres no X on the machine, so i dont know how it

p5-Class-DBI update broken

2004-08-12 Thread Your Name
i just updated my Ports tree, and among other things
there was an update to the p5-Class-DBI port. But i
can't portupgrade this; it's broken in an odd way:

---
===   p5-Class-DBI-0.96_1 depends on file:
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.5/File/Temp.pm -
not found
===Verifying install for
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.5/File/Temp.pm in
/usr/ports/devel/p5-File-Temp
===  p5-File-Temp-0.14_1 This module is already
included in perl 5.8.x and later..
*** Error code 1

---

However, File::Temp indeed there:
FreeBSD-CURRENT $ perl -e 'use File::Temp';
FreeBSD-CURRENT $

i have re-installed perl-5.8.5, and run pkgdb -F;
neither fixes things. Is this my problem or the
port's?

Thanks.

Guide to x.org update?

I'd like to upgrade to the x.org series from XFree86.
Is there any simple guide to how to do this? There's 
nothing in /usr/ports/UPDATING. I see that some people
have reported general success, but I'm worried that 
I'll miss something or forget about rebuilding
something in the three days it'll take to rebuild
every X dependent

 Just update your ports tree, and run portupgrade to
 bring all your installed 
 ports up to date.

I don't want to be thick, but what are the exact steps
involved in this? My installed ports are already up to
date, Id just want to rebuild the ones that depend on
some version of X. So I guess I'd first install the
xorg meta-port, then delete--what?, to make sure I get
all the XFree86 versions?--and then do what to rebuild
properly everything with depends?

Thanks. I will wait if there is going to be some easy

PDF plugin for Mozilla?

2004-06-10 Thread Your Name
I'm using Mozilla on FreeBSD 4.9. When I click on a
PDF, it prompts me to use gpdf to view it, and then
will open it up in a separate window. Is there a
plugin I can use so that it opens right in the browser
window? The only Mozilla plugins I found in the Ports
collection were for Flash.

Thanks!

Jen

 The port www/plugger will do this.

Thanks! That's actually kind of nice, though it took a
little fiddling to get right (using gpdf instead of
xpdf, for example). Still easier than running Acroread
under Linux compat.

But it does seem to conflict with other plugins. I had
been using mplayerplug-in, but now that no longer
works, and the plugger line for mpeg video is not
working (I guess I could fix it, but I like
mplayerplug-in). Can these work together, or does
plugger have to handle everything?

dhcp question

2003-11-05 Thread Your Name

-- 
Hi all

I would like to configure 2 network cards to have dhcp server function
but it doesnt'work

NIC rl0 is WAN port
NIC rl1 is for 192.168.0.1 network
NIC rl2 is for 10.0.0.1 network

I put dhcpd.sh in the /usr/local/etc/rc.d

#!/bin/sh
/usr/sbin/dhcpd rl1 -q
/usr/sbin/dhcpd rl2 -q


Those rl1 and rl2 are using NAT to go to outside

In the /etc/dhcpd.conf

I configured the network

authoritative;
subnet 192.168.0.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
  range 192.168.0.100 192.168.0.150;
  option domain-name abc.com;
  option domain-name-servers 24.141.32.200;

  default-lease-time 600;
  max-lease-time 7200;
  option routers 192.168.0.1;
  option broadcast-address 192.168.0.255;
  default-lease-time 600;
  max-lease-time 7200;
}

subnet 10.0.0.0 netmask 255.0.0.0 {
  range 10.0.0.100 10.0.0.150;
  option domain-name abc.com;
  option domain-name-servers 24.141.32.200;

  default-lease-time 600;
  max-lease-time 7200;
  option routers 10.0.0.1;
  option broadcast-address 10.255.255.255;
  default-lease-time 600;
  max-lease-time 7200;
}

Thank you

 Boot from a fixit disk, mount your root partition, and fix
