Thank you, Steve. I was able to get talk to work by properly configuring /etc/resolve.conf as well as the hosts file. Ben Raskin.

Hi Ben,
Here's what I did on my Void Linux computer to get talk working:
* Configured xinetd to work
* Make sure xinetd has an entry for talk[1]
* As my normal user, (slitt), ssh slitt@192.168.100.2
* Started talkd
* From inside that ssh session, talk root@192.168.100.2
* At that point I receive "waiting for your party to reply"
* I go to a root terminal, and it's asking me to reply. I reply, but
using the IP address, not my hostname.
* At that point, the two can talk at their convenience.
Notice on the command line, I used the IP address, not the hostname.
Notice that what was in hostname really didn't matter. I couldn't
change /etc/hostname to fqdn because it busted a bunch of other stuff,
and I'm not good enough at nsd/unbound to get "mydesk" point to
192.168.100.2. Didn't matter, I used the IP address on the command line.
[1]: /etc/xinetd.d/talk below:
===
service ntalk
{
flags = REUSE
socket_type = dgram
wait= yes
user= root
server = /usr/bin/talkd
log_on_failure += USERID
disable = no
}

Guessing you use "join" for the wifi network config? You can either run "ifconfig xxx -join network" at the command line to remove just that network, or you can add "-joinlist" to the top of hostname.xxx if you just want it to clear and recreate the whole list.

Purging a wifi connection
I have a problem when I have two wifi services available, say, a hotel wifi and my cellphone hotspot. Suppose I put the hotel wifi in my hostname.xxx file and run sh /etc/netstart and I don't like the results. Removing the hotel wifi from the hostname file, replacing it with my hotspot wifi, and rerunning sh /etc/netstart results in the computer trying to connect with the hotel wifi again, even though this connection is no longer in the hostname file. If I then reboot the computer and rerun sh /etc/netstart, it connects with the hotspot wifi as desired. My question is whether there is a way to purge the non-desired wifi connection without rebooting the computer. -- David J. Raymond david.raym...@nmt.edu http://physics.nmt.edu/~raymond

You came in a bit late with the question (i.e. after you already had the hardware!). IMHO there's little use for RAID5 these days. The advantage is "more storage from a given number of drives". But that can more easily be fixed by using larger drives which are easier to recover in the event of failure. I'm not sure what level of support softraid has for stacked disciplines (it doesn't have direct RAID10 support). The boot loader only supports RAID 1 and crypto, so you will either want RAID 1 on the boot drives, or boot from USB stick etc. I think the only options that really make sense for OpenBSD are 2-drive RAID1 for main OS, and then either 2-drive RAID1 for data, plus a single drive for an extra copy of important things (I hesitate to use the word 'backup' for something in the same machine, but sometimes it can be helpful to have something that is easier to restore than your actual backups ;) - though for such a setup I would have gone with HDD rather than SSD for the 5th drive - or 3 single drives for data. > set it up as you need it... > If you think your description is anything close to specific for specific > recommendations, you need to get out more.

I think it's a much better idea than trying to backup mailboxes on an active system.

Since these are SSDs and apart from random hardware failures (which aren't *so* common) the main failure mode is doing too many writes. So with three disk RAID1 the main thing you end up doing with 3 mirrored SSDs is wearing out three drives rather than two with writes at the same rate. The other risk is data corruption (either on the bus or on storage either over time - "bit rot" - or firmware bugs etc). softraid doesn't have anything to help with this (even for detection, let alone figuring out which copy of the data, if any, is correct). > As for the rest...it's a matter of how much space you need and how > much down time you can tolerate, and how you are set up to deal with > that downtime.

E-mail is one of those things that's really hard to get a good backup of, as it changes minute by minute and is considered fairly important, so I'd consider a three disk RAID1 for the mail store, as a disk system failure invariably means "lost data", even with frequent backups.

I have not yet tried to recompile xterm. I played around with my .xsession file. I found out that if I do not run scim -d , I will be able to type Norwegian accents on xterm. The settings of XMODIFIERS, GTK_IM_MODULE, or QT_IM_MODULE did not impact this. This means that the culprit is **scim**. Could other **scim** users of OpenBSD share your experiences? Could you use **scim** without a problem? Yours sincerely, Xianwen

The Thinkpad X220 works with its original BIOS so the problem is with your coreboot and not with OpenBSD. coreboot fails to properly report something (most probably some of the ACPI or SMBIOS information is wrong) and because of that every PCI access seems to fail. Most probably pci0 is not setup correctly. We can't help you here, you changed your BIOS with something that is not quite right.

ahci issue corebooted X220 does not recognise usb or stata
Hi OpenBSD Mailing list, I am trying to install Openbsd via the install66.fs on a Thinkpad X220 [amd64] with coreboot. I have the problem that it does not recognize any USB or SATA device may it be storage or peripherals like a keyboard, except for the boot USB. I tried with external USB storage, multiple different internal SSD's, multiple USB keyboards, but sysctl does not show anything and dmesg does not give a message when plugged in or out. I also tried with the grub and seabios payloads but it did not make a difference. Coreboot and payloads are compiled at master and agenst the latest stable version but it did not make a difference. coreboot Master version is 4.11-1189. When I look at dmesg I see ahci failed, I know you guys will need to see my dmesg but since I can't save it to a drive [read problem above] and the installation fs only has ftp to communicate to the web as far as I can see and I don't know how to set up a ftp server, I am at a loss of how to get it out. Maybe I am missing something? A part of dmesg I think may be helpful that I typed over: em0 at pci0 dev 25 function 0 "Intel 82579LM" rev 0x05: msiem0: The EEPROM Checksum Is Not Valid em0: Unable to initialize the hardware ehci0 at pci0 dev 26 function 0 "Intel 6 Series USB" rev 0x05: apci 2 int 19 ehci0: reset timeout ehci0 init failed, error=13 ehci1 at pci0 dev 29 function 0 "Intel 6 Series USB" rev 0x05: apci 2 int 18 ehci1: reset timeout ehci1 init failed, error=13 "Intel QM67 LPC" rev 0x05 at pci0 dev 31 function 0 not configured ahci0 at pci0 dev 31 function 2 "Intel 6 Series AHCI" rev 0x05: msi, unable to reset controller "Intel 6 Series SMBus" rev 0x05 at pci0 dev 31 function 3 not configured "Intel 6 Series Thermal" rev 0x05 at pci0 dev 31 function 6 not configured I hope this is enough info and would greatly appreciate it if anyone could help me out!
