Re: 5.2 pre-orders are up

[dave del debbio]

We've activated 5.2 pre-orders.

Yeah, we know the http://www.openbsd.org/52.html page sucks, and
doesn't list all the stuff we've done recently.  Hopefully that
will change.

I placed my order and want to thank all the developers that worked on this
release.  I especially want to thank guenther@ for kernel threads and
jsing@ for the Go port.

thanks again,
dave.

Re: Random freezes

[Dave Del Debbio]

Hello Patrikas,

Thinkpad G40 running -current sometimes freezes completely without any
signs. No network connectivity, no response.. it happens in X and usually
during some interaction (happened twice when moving a window). Not sure how
could I debug it, I don't have a serial cable at the moment. Are there any
other options to trace it ? Thanks in advance, here's my dmesg below:

inteldrm0 at vga1: irq 11
drm0 at inteldrm0

When X freezes up, press the Fn button.  Does that solve the issue?

Dave.

Re: em(4) ierrs [solved]

[Dave Del Debbio]

I, unfortunately, am still experiencing livelocks on my em interfaces on my 
Dell 
R200 server in bridging mode.  I'm going to have to schedule an upgrade to the 
latest snapshot first to see if that clears up any issues, but barring that 
I'm 
not sure where to look.  Perhaps I'll also try the UP kernel.

Are you currently running amd64? Maybe you should try running an i386
bridge.  Please see how devio.us solved their livelock problem here:

 I've used lpd on Windows to print to HP printers with HP JetDirect.

 I read the recent thread about lpd/postscript.

 Will I be able to use lpd to print to any HP JetDirect printer?


Yes, HP JetDirect does lpd/lpr amongst many other protocols.



 I'm looking at getting an HP 1518ni colour laser.

 Does HP postscript level 3 emulation qualify as postscript support

I have an HP Color LaserJet 2605dn which has postscript support; I print
documents using lpd.  You may get the staircase effect when printing
documents from the commandline.  I used to until I started using this
ksh function (in /etc/ksh.kshrc):

function print_tty {
  if [[ $# -ne 1 ]]; then
echo usage: $0 [file] 2
return 2
  fi
  if [[ ! -e $1 ]]; then
echo error: $1 does not exist! 2
return 1
  fi
  awk '{printf %s\r\n,$0} END {printf %c, 26}' $1 | lpr -
}

HTH, Dave


Not 100% sure about HP's postscript emulation but my Brother printer does
postscript level 3 emulation well enough for all my printing needs so far.

Hi misc
