 This kind of thing is often caused by duplex mismatch on your NIC.

Ok, I've been playing around with media options (10/100, full and half
duplex) but it didn't work. I suppose that I'll try to get a better NIC
from one of my friends to try again :P

Thank you Kris.

 The only important thing here is that you have the same settings on the
 switch as on the server! For Linux-es I tend to set them auto - auto but
 for FreeBSD 100/full (non negotiation) - 100/full wotks best.

Ok, I think I have it correctly with this command:

 ifconfig rl0 media 100baseTX -mediaopt full-duplex

(rl0 or dc0, I've used two different NICs).

Moreover, I connected my FreeBSD box to the ADSL router (directly, no
more machines connected) and forced the adapter to 10baseT/UTP and
full-duplex but it didn't work. I also tried with 100baseTX, but then
there was no carrier (the ADSL router is a bit old, and only support
10Mbps).

So, I'm running out of ideas :(

Thank you all for your help!

[SOLVED] Re: Poor network performance: a lot of timeouts

2005-05-30 Thread Imobach González Sosa
First of all, THANK YOU all for your help. I tried all your solutions
but I didn't worked for me. Why? Simple: the problem seems to be in may
ADSL router.

I'll explain: I took my desktop computer to my neighbour's home. I
connected it to his ADSL and... worked pretty fine! So I got a new
router (from my neighbour's sister, thank you both) and take it home.
Changing my old router by the new one seems to solve the problem :-P

I'm puzzled, but it works now.

Thank you again!

AAAA queries (was: Realtek 8139 (rl) very poor performance)

2005-01-21 Thread Imobach González Sosa
Thank you all for your responses and your support. However, I changed the 
network card and it didn't work (I have now a Davicom 9102).

Well, anyway, after playing around with ethereal and tcpdump, I think that the 
problem have to do with IPv6. Well, not exactly. I found that when I try to 
make an HTTP connection (for example, with lynx), my machine sends an  
query and my DNS server doesn't seems to handle it properly.

So, I'd like the software stop doing such queries... what can I start for? 
Must I recompile aplications? I've get out INET6 support from the kernel, 
but it's not sufficient.

Ideas? A link to documentation about it?

Thank you!

Realtek 8139 (rl) very poor performance

2005-01-20 Thread Imobach González Sosa
Hi all,

I'm havin' a strange problem with my Realtek Network Adapter. On boot, the 
detection looks just fine:

 $ dmesg| grep rl
 rl0: RealTek 8139 10/100BaseTX port 0xd000-0xd0ff mem 0xee00-0xeeff  
 irq 10 at device 10.0 on pci0
 miibus0: MII bus on rl0
 rlphy0: RealTek internal media interface on miibus0
 rlphy0:  10baseT, 10baseT-FDX, 100baseTX, 100baseTX-FDX, auto
 rl0: Ethernet address: 00:40:f4:32:e5:12

However, the performance is very poor. Some examples:

* using 'fetch' command, I get a lot of timeouts, so some ports fail to 
install (I have to retry).
* using Konqueror, for instance, I also get some timeouts and a very low 
speed connecting to different websites.

I've done the some test on the same machine (and on my laptop) using 
GNU/Linux, and works pretty fine. So I discarded a network hardware issue as 
the origin of the problem.

Any ideas?

Thank you all in advance.

System crashes... what now?

2005-01-17 Thread Imobach González Sosa

Hi all,

I'm a newbie in the FreeBSD thing, and I'm having some problems that I'd like 
to track down as far as possible. In four days using FreeBSD, my machine has 
crashed two times, ugh!

a) first time, with 5.3-RELEASE. Nothing changed about the kernel or base 
system. Just I leave the system alone compiling some stuff (like X.org) all 
night and, next day, the system has been crashed: no video output and no 
response to keyboard nor network.

b) the second one, this morning with 5.3-STABLE. It was downloading libxslt 
and, at 13 percent, the system went frozen.

My question is: after the system has crashed, what can I do? I mean, where can 
I look for clues about what happened? Log files shows nothing about the 
incidents, and I'd like to have a clue about what's wrong with FreeBSD and my 
machine.

Ideas?

Thank you in advance.

Re: USB mouse not working

 I found that my USB mouse works if and only if I boot without APCI support.

Ok, it didn't work to me. I added

'dmesg | grep acpi' returns no results, same as 'devinfo | grep acpi'. So I 
suppose acpi is disabled at boot time. I also noticed that when moused start 
while booting the machine, it throws me this error: 'unable to 
open /dev/ums0: Device busy'.

Any idea?

 However, I can't figure out how to configure moused with my mouse: I have
  this settings in /etc/rc.conf:
 
 usbd_enable=YES
 usbd_flags=
 moused_enable=YES
 moused_type=auto

 This happens to me in Linux, FreeBSD, and Windows so seems to be a mouse

 the mouse works at bootup, I get a /dev/ums0: Device busy error. Only thing
 I can see that is different in my setup compared to yours is that I have:

I have a Logitech Coordless Desktop Comfort; it's a receiver with 
keyboard+optical mouse.

 usbd_flags=-vv

This make no sense for me.

 in rc.conf.  I can't for the life of me remember why (scrolling maybe?).

Ok, so now the good news: I've installed a 'macally mice' (a simple usb mouse) 
and it seems to work just fine. Anyway, I still wanna use my Logitech mice, 
so I suppose I'll continue trying with it.

Thank you all for your responses.

Anybody on this list have a Logitech mice as mine?

USB mouse not working

2005-01-15 Thread Imobach González Sosa
Hi all,

Probably is my fault, but I can't get the mouse working on 5.3 STABLE. I've 
installed FreeBSD 5.3 RELEASE last night, and today I updated my sources and 
rebuilt 'world'. I've googled for a while and I can't fix the problem, so I'm 
posting the trouble to this list. I hope it's the correct list. Let me know 
if I'm wrong.

Ok, when I start FreeBSD the mouse seems to be detected (usb mouse):

ums0: Logitech USB Receiver, rev 1.10/17.00, addr 2, iclass 3/1
ums0: 7 buttons and Z dir.

However, I can't figure out how to configure moused with my mouse: I have this 
settings in /etc/rc.conf:

usbd_enable=YES
usbd_flags=
moused_enable=YES
moused_type=auto
moused_flags=
moused_port=/dev/ums0

But the mouse doesn't move on the console. And, when I fire up X.org, 
everything goes right except the mouse stays in the center of the screen.

Any tips about it?

Thank you in advance and sorry if it's not the proper list.
