RE: any ideas when 5.5 will be out

2005-09-20 Thread Rob MacGregor
On Tuesday, September 20, 2005 2:47 AM, Paul Root  unleashed the infinite
monkeys and produced:

 I will go to 5.5, I'm sure, on my servers. I update
 from source fairly regularly. And that was the original
 question: Why would 5.5 come out after 6.0?

For the same reason 4.11 came out after 5.3.  Quoting from Kris Kennaway's
response to the mail before yours :)

Read the handbook for detailed explanation of how FreeBSD releases work.

 poweredge 1850 bi cpu xeon 2.8
 what's the HTT

It's hyper-threading, the cpu have some extra registers, so the cpu
can get some more work done (in theory) during one cpu-cycle. But most
of the time the improved performance is neglible. If HTT is enabled
one cpu will show up as two logical cpu's.

So try to disable HTT in BIOS.

 on thing more, that hasn't never happent before updating to p7.

It could be minor updates to the scheduler, disksystem etc. which
triggers this error, but only appears as a result of two or more
factors, which weren't present before p7.

5.4 Stable - Error compiling a custom kernel in atmconfig

2005-09-20 Thread Quirino Santilli

I'm using FreeBSD 5.4 on an old bi-processor PII 300 by Asem.

First of all i synchronized my source tree to the 5_4 version using
cvsup, but when I run the make buildkernel=SMP command I receive a
stop error pointing to the atmconfig binary...and to the atm
modules...

I tried to search for this error in the mailing list archive but i
didn't find anything...can you help me?

I run in this problem on different hardware architectures...

ep0 Interrupt Storm, 3Com EtherLink III (PnP)

2005-09-20 Thread Billy Newsom
Does anyone know exactly what to do about an interrupt storm, or if it 
really is a problem? I have an old system acting as a router/firewall. 
It is a dual processor, so I use SMP. But since going to 5.3 and 5.4, it 
would seem that this system runs a bit worse than under 4.7. It could be 
based on just an old BIOS, which will never be updated now, which 
doesn't support some of the new stuff. It's not ACPI, and PnP seems to 
be marginal as it always has been.


Other than the dmesg output, I would know nothing about such a storm. 
Since it is happening to a network card, I was wondering if it needs to 
be addressed.


I also don't know about the unknown: PNP0303 can't assign resources 
(port) errors.


But back to the main issue, what is the storm all about?

Thank you, i will redirect my query to the appropriate mailing list.

Perhaps i should have explained that the em(4) driver in 4.x does
include support for the Intel 82573 1000/PRO nic; while the one in 5.x
does not. =(

Is it planned to merge the work on 4.x to 5.x and HEAD? 
i tried to recompile the kernel with the 4.x sources for the em(4)
driver, but obviously a lot has changed in the kernel, and as luck
would have it, my attempt did not yield any success.

Who would be the person to contact regarding this driver?

Thank you!

RELENG_6: hangs with if_wi in pccard.

2005-09-20 Thread Ronald Klop

Hello,

I've have something weird. If I put my if_wi card in my laptop it totally  
hangs. I cannot go into the debugger and witness doesn't complain. This  
was working fine in FreeBSD 5.4.
But if I first put in my if_ep card and than my if_wi card everything  
works fine.


But if I than remove the if_wi card I get this:

In stead of a hang I ones had this today.

Any thoughts in what I can try more. See my previous e-mail (subject:

High interrupts w/ Cisco 350 card

2005-09-20 Thread Peter D. Quilty
I'm running 5.4-RELEASE-p6 on a Toshiba Tecra M2 laptop.  My network
card is a Cisco 350 PCMCIA card.  I'm experiencing a very high rate of
interrupts during heavy network traffic.  The laptop becomes very
sluggish to respond.  The more traffic through the interface, the higher
the number of interrupts and the more sluggish the laptop becomes.  I've
searched the mailing list archives and the web, but haven't been able to
find anything relevant.  This Cisco card works fine in every other
laptop I have.  I suspect it might be a cardbus problem, but I don't
know how to resolve it or troubleshoot it any further.  I've tried
disabling ACPI and that hasn't helped.  Has anyone experienced this or
have any suggestions?  Any help would be much appreciated.

Here is the output from a vmstat -i, a systat -iostat, and my boot
time dmesg.  There are no other errors showing up in any of the logs or
on the console.

Hi,
  The driver in RELENG_4 is essentially the same as in HEAD 
and RELENG_6.  Someone backported the changes from the RELENG_6 
version to 5.x and posted a link in the mailling list perhaps a month 
or so ago.  Have a look through the archives for the 
patches.  However, I would suggest you go to RELENG_6 from 5.x.  6.x 
is a bit faster on a number of counts and quite stable on the boxes 
we have it running on.

Re: ep0 Interrupt Storm, 3Com EtherLink III (PnP)

2005-09-20 Thread Joel Rees


On 平成 17/09/21, at 5:35, Billy Newsom wrote:


Does anyone know exactly what to do about an interrupt storm,


My understanding is that an interrupt storm is a noisy interrupt  
line. It could be a flaky chip, an incompatible setting for the  
interrupt lines in the BIOS, a loose wire, dust or some sort of  
condensate (very typically tobacco tar) on the PC board, ...


Physically cleaning the PC board, re-seating chips and cards would be  
a good start. If you've never done that before, make sure you read up  
on what not to do, first. (Issues like static electricity, chemical  
cleansers destroying or modifying the board or the circuits, bending  
or breaking leads, that kind of thing.) If that doesn't help, the  
next place to turn would be the docs for the ethernet card and the  
fBSD source, to see if you can find some setting that clears a conflict.



or if it really is a problem?


It does sound kind of like it's eating up some of your performance.

(An interrupt storm on an unused USB, for instance, might well be  
best taken care of by just letting fBSD throttle it back.)


I have an old system acting as a router/firewall. It is a dual  
processor, so I use SMP. But since going to 5.3 and 5.4, it would  
seem that this system runs a bit worse than under 4.7. It could be  
based on just an old BIOS, which will never be updated now, which  
doesn't support some of the new stuff. It's not ACPI, and PnP seems  
to be marginal as it always has been.


Other than the dmesg output, I would know nothing about such a  
storm. Since it is happening to a network card, I was wondering if  
it needs to be addressed.


I also don't know about the unknown: PNP0303 can't assign  
resources (port) errors.


But back to the main issue, what is the storm all about?

Using /stand/sysinstall for 5-STABLE package installation

2005-09-20 Thread FreeBSD User

Hello,

When I installed my system, I used the .iso images of 
5.4-STABLE-SNAP006 for a minimal installation and then installed 
various packages using pkg_add -r, downloading them from its default 
setting of ftp.freebsd/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-5-stable/Latest.


I would like to use /stand/sysinstall for installing additional 
packages but its option release name is set to use 5.4-STABLE-SNAP006. 
This gives an error message saying that it cannot find that 
distribution on an ftp server. I've tried changing the release name 
under installation options but nothing I've entered works (e.g., 
5.4-STABLE or 5.4-LATESTor RELENG-5).


So how do I configure /stand/sysinstall to point to the latest stable 
version to use it for installing additional packages?

Can't Logon as Root

2005-09-20 Thread Joe Bouterse
I¹m running V5.4 and must have changed the shell for root with an incorrect
path, and now cannot logon as root. I¹ve tried every command I can think of,
but cannot get anywhere. Obviously, I¹m new to FreeBSD, so any suggestions
would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
