ata timeouts after debug commits

2001-07-29 Thread John Hay

Hi,

I have been struggling with a Dell Latitude C800 here. FreeBSD 4.1 and 4.3
was working with no problems, but when I tried to upgrade it to 4-stable,
it did not see the disk anymore. It just gave this message:

#
atapci0:  port 0xbfa0-0xbfaf at device 31.1 on pci
0
ata0: at 0x1f0 irq 14 on atapci0
...
ata0-master: ata_command: timeout waiting for intr
ata0-master: identify failed
#

At the end I tracked it down to these commits:

src/sys/i386/i386/db_trace.c,v 1.35.2.1 2001/07/12 02:57:11 bsd
src/sys/i386/i386/support.s,v 1.67.2.4 2001/07/12 02:57:11 bsd
src/sys/i386/include/cpufunc.h,v 1.96.2.2 2001/07/12 02:57:11 bsd

If I back those commits out, the machine boots and see the disk with no
problems.

Anybody have any ideas about it?

John

Re: pnpbios: Bad PnP BIOS data checksum

It means that your PnP BIOS data has a bad checksum.

We don't trust it in this case.  Some vendors don't bother to compute the 
checksum for this structure; we are more conservative than Microsoft, and 
refuse to use the PnP BIOS in this case.

It would not, if at this time yesterday, someone was doing a
commit.

If the suggestion, "leave a small commit-free window around
midnight UTC" is adopted, then you could use -D "00:00:00 UTC" and not
have to worry (although you'd have to translate that to
"[cc]yy.mm.dd.00.00.00" format for cvsup to process it).

Hey, Chris.

I've put this message couple days ago, almost a week old!  I have been a
FreeBSD user for quite a while and matured enough using this OS in such
way that I no longer seek help but, most of the time, giving help
to newbies who just started using FreeBSD.  However, I have to tell you
that I have tried Redhat 7.1 with 2.4.x kernel and it just amazed me in
every area (performance, hardware support for my fairly new laptop!).  I
agree FreeBSD is good OS in certain areas.  But it does seem to lack in
desktop area and hardware support.  My new optical usb mouse doesn't run
on FreeBSD.  I have been working on it for more than a month but still
couldn't get it to work!  At the end, I had to settle with my old "wheel"
based mouse which I'm really tired of cleaing the dirt every week!  After
some serious thought (it's always very hard to make transition!), I have
finally decided to switch to Linux for 4 reasons:

1) KDE, GNOME and other Window managers are only 100% compatible with
Linux.  I've discovered only 90% of KDE and GNOME functionality work on
FreeBSD.  (NO JAVA support!  I couldn't get any JAVA applications to run
on FreeBSD).  I'm kind of suspicious about compatibility between GNU C/C++
compilers and FreeBSD also.

2) My laptop is only 100% supported under Linux with kernel 2.4 and 2.4 is
very fast.  Under FreeBSD, I have to disable the "doze" mode for CPU otherwise,
FreeBSD won't even boot!  USB seems to be conflicting with other
components in system also so none of the USB devices are working at least
for my laptop.

3) When installing very large files like Mozilla, teTeX and XFree86-4,
FreeBSD takes forever to install!  Even with async option enabled,
the package for teTeX takes good 15 minutes, Mozilla good 20 minutes to
unzip and install.  It takes forever unzipping XFree86-4 source for
compilation under FreeBSD. And my machine isn't that archaic, it's 500Mhz,
128M, UDMA 33 Hard drive!  Under Linux, installing teTeX took only 10 sec or so.

4) None of the NVIDIA cards are supported in FreeBSD.  Sure it runs, but
only with 2D, unaccelerated mode.

I'm not bashing FreeBSD here.  It's just that, FreeBSD seem to be more
suited for server purpose than desktop arena.

Lastly, what's with FreeBSDers saying Linux takes forever to boot than
FreeBSD?  Redhat by default enables everything!  I turned off services I
don't need and it takes less than 5 sec booting my laptop.  For me FreeBSD
took longer to boot (more like 20-30 sec).  Maybe it's different for
nonlaptops.

I just wanted clarify that I wasn't bashing FreeBSD.  I was mearly
pointing out my "wishes".  Anyways, I will be unsubscribing the FreeBSD stable
list in couple days or so.  If you read my previous messages, you would
have understood how frustrated I was having to make transition!  (I
probably installed both Redhat and FreeBSD back and forth 10 times last
week! 3 time this morning before I finally made up my mind.)  Now, I need to
concentrate on physics and less of OS.

4.3 Bugs

2001-07-29 Thread Rodrigo A. Simões

Hi,

I'm trying to apply the patch 01:40 (fts) on my 4.3 system. But the "chgrp"
doesn't exist on /usr/src/usr.bin... Look:

cd /usr/src/usr.bin/chgrp
# make depend && make all install

The update of "chgrp" fail... Why this occur???

PS: Sorry for my poor english!

Regards!!!
