hw.pcic.intr_path=1 device hint for 5x
I have a laptop which requires the sysctl hw.pcic.intr_path="1" to be set for the laptop to not get a panic in 4.x. I'm trying to do a fresh install of 5.2.1, but have not found the equivalent device.hint. I've tried hint.pcic.0.disable=1, as well as the older sysctl's hw.pcic.intr_path=1 and hw.pcic.irq=0 [the latter two are suggested in the handbook]. im not sure if the sysctl's are still valid in 5.x, but all the above values still resulted in a kernel panic at: cbb0: at device 10.0 on pci0 cardbus0: on cbb0 pccard-: <16-bit PCCard bus> on cbb0 pci_cfgintr_virgin: using routable interrupt 4 Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode ... fault virtual address = 0xeb902 trap number = 12 google shows this issue seems to be related to systems with the sis 630 chipset, which is what my laptop has. if i was able to install 4.x, i figure its probably possible with 5.x too, i just need to figure out the proper device hints. thanks and please cc me, im not currently on the mailing list. yussef ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
suggestions on new dvd burner
I'm looking to purchase a dvd burner for my desktop [currently running 5.1-release]. My uses for the drive would be copying dvd movies as well as archiving system data. I was looking at the pioneer dvr-106 drive. However, from what ive been reading in forums and mailing lists, it seems like the pioneers dont always play too nicely under fbsd. anyone care to confirm or deny this? Any recommendations on dual format dvd burners and experienced burning on fbsd is much appreciated.

Re: nutball video question
If i understand what you want to do, i have something similar setup. i stuck my tv card [device bktr] in my headless server. Installed X on the server, along with xawtv and fxtv. i then ssh -X into the server from a client running X, i then execute the command for one of the tv viewing apps mentioned above, and it pops up on the client. It does such up most of the bandwidth on my 100base lan, but if you're talking small res and dont mind slightly low updates, its fine. my goal for this system was actually to turn the system into a bit of a pvr, having it record tv programs so i could watch at my own convenience. good luck yussef On Mon, 09 Jun 2003 23:59:11-0400(EDT)"J.

Re: Mount command...again
this isnt a a direct solution, but have you considered using nfs instead? it seems to be the better tool between unix systems. yussef On Thu, 05 Jun 2003 14:45:04-0800(AKDT) [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > Ok, here is what I am trying to do.

Re: Kernel Panic during install with 4.8 mini ISO
before the kernel is loaded, when you're given 10 seconds, hit any key besides enter, then type 'set hw.pcic.intr_path=1' without the quotes. good luck. hope this works. yussef On Thu, 5 Jun 2003 22:11:18 +0100 "Chris Ward" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I'm seeing a kernel panic during boot of 4.8 mini ISO install CD, > details below. > > Fault virtual addr = 0xeb902 > Fault code = supervisor read, page not present > Instr Ptr = 0x8:0xc00eb807 > Stack Ptr = 0x10:0xc0843d6c > Frame Ptr = 0x10:0xc0843d6c > Code Seg = base 0x0, limit 0xf, type 0x1b, DPL0, pres 1, def32 1, > gran 1 Proc eflags = interrupt enabled, resume, IOPL=0 > Current proc = 0 (swapper) > IRQ mask = net tty bio cam > Trap no = 12 > > Just prior to this it was probing the VGA: > > pcio0: (vendor = 0x1039, dev = 0x7013) at 1.6 irq 10 > pcib2: at device > 2.0 on pci0 > pci1: on pcib2 > pci1: at 0.0 > pci_cfgintr_virgin: using routable interrupt 3 > > > > The kernel is unmodified from that of the ISO image. > > I'm guessing that I need to pass in some params to init the graphics > card but being new to FreeBSD I'm not sure how to do this. > > Could somebody please point me in the right direction? > > Thx. > Chris. > > > > ___ > [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions > To unsubscribe, send any mail to > "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" > ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
Re: Why won't gaim show me online??
im pretty gaim compiles natively. its simply a gtk2 based app. could this be some kind of firewalling issue? perhaps you're blocking packets being sent to the AOL server. just a thought.. also, you could try naim. much simpler, and doesnt hog up nearly as much screen real estate. yussef On Sat, 31 May 2003 15:42:40-0400 Tim Kellers<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > How about AIM? > > /usr/ports/net/aim > > It requires Linux emulation, but I think gaim does, too. > > Tim Kellers > CPE/NJIT > > > On Saturday 31 May 2003 03:17 pm, Steven Lake wrote: > > Just installed gaim out of the ports and added my AIM screen > > name > > to it and I can send and recieve messages, but it shows me as > > offline to anyone else even though I see others as online.

samba shares over bridged freebsd wap
I recently got a freebsd wap working. my connection to the internet seems fine, i can ping away all i want. i followed the steps in the handbook, which include bridging the wi0 on the wap to the nic [rl1]. However, this doesnt seem to work with samba [and the wap happens to store my files which i share over samba]. It seems because the wireless device has no ip, samba doesnt see it. assuming this is the problem, what are the options for having the wap work, but still being able to access my samba shares? [as a side note: when i boot into windows on the wireless client, i can access the wireless server just fine. so this makes me think its doable, but perhaps a limitation in the current samba? or simply poor configuration by the user?] perhaps setting up the wireless stuff on a different subnet, assigning an ip, and then using static routes? this is rather new territory for me, so my understanding is probably off. thanks for any info. yussef -- ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
Re: Sound on SiS 7012 under 4.8 ?
I have a laptop with the 7018 sis audio chipset. not sure how similar they are, but FWIW: sound seems to work fine under win2k, so i doubt its a h/w problem [maybe just poorly designed hw ;)]. However, in fbsd 4.8 i have to perform a lil tinkering to get sound working. The problem will be when i first reboot sometimes i can get 11 seconds of playback, and then it stops [sometimes i wont get any at all]. then after that initial 11, i cant get it to play again. things like restarted xmms/mplayer/whatever_sound/video_app doesnt work. Eventual frustration led to me play with hw.snd.maxautovchans and hw.snd.pcm0.vchans with xmms, i find i have to open up the app, then set both thos sysctl values to 4. kill xmms. check fstat |grep dsp. the sooner it reports that a dsp vchan is being used [even tho xmms is open] the better. as that seems to be the trick. sound will only work if i have a zombie process using one of the sound vchans. then i set the two sysctl values back to 0 [this is usually when the zombie process will appear. i notice getting xmms to hang will usually induce the zombie process]. now i can set the sysctl values back to 4, change the /dev xmms should use to something other than the one the zombie process is now claiming [otherwise xmms should report /dev/dsp as busy]. then i seem to be able to play all the mp3 and dvd i want. Also to note: i am able to play audio cd's fine w/out all this nonsense [i assume thast cuz the audio is being directly output, and not processed by bsd]. my dmesg| grep pcm is slightly different than yours, but hope this helps.. pcm0: port 0x3400-0x34ff mem 0x24003000-0x24003fff irq 5 at device 1.4 on pci0 pcm0: On Wed, 28 May 2003 00:15:46+0200 Florent DANIEL<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>(by way of Florent\ DANIEL<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>) wrote: > Hello, > > I can't get my onboard soundcard to work on FreeBSD 4.8-STABLE.
