Announcing Livingston County BSD User Group (LivBUG)
[Please keep inquires off list if you're interested in LivBUG] This is a one time spam to all the *BSD mailing lists to announce a new BSD User Group I'm trying to start in Livingston County, Michigan. I'm calling it LivBUG [0]. I'd like to invite anyone from the Brighton, Fowlerville, Howell, Pinckney and nearby communities to join us at our Inaugural Meeting (TBA) [1]. As of now we plan on holding our meetings at the Hamburg Township Library. I plan on giving an introduction talk on OpenBSD (originally presented by fellow OpenBSD developer Brian Callahan). If you're interested in attending a meeting please join our mailing list over at LivBUG [0] or are Meetup.com page [1] (we are currently using meetup.com as a temporary space while we build more infrastructure and gage interest). Thanks for tolerating the spam! [0] http://livbug.org [1] http://www.meetup.com/Livingston-County-BSD-User-Group-LivBUG/events/222334139/ -- James Turner
Re: Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6030 -
I have this same card and have the same issues as the original poster. I tested on an April 19 amd64 snapshot. Does anyone know if anyone is looking into adding support for this card?
Re: is the Lemote Yeeloong available in the US?
In case anyone is still interested, a US based reseller of the 10in Lemote Yeeloong has popped up in Boston, MA. I just placed my order and hope to have it this weekend. It looks like Freedom Included does group buys direct from Lemote then resells them preloaded with gnewsense (a fsf approved linux distro). Anyways just wanted to put that out there for those interested. You can buy them online at http://freedomincluded.com. I can't wait to get OpenBSD on this machine and hopefully will be able to help test diff's if needed.

ral(4) hostap plea
I've been trying to get my new ral(4) card to work like I would expect it to. I've read through most if not all the talk on misc@ about running these cards in hostap mode. I would really like to replace my wi(4), which works really well, with my new ral(4) and enjoy 11g and later wpa. Sadly, the performance is just not there in both 11b or 11g modes. Some info, the ral(4) is a Gigabyte GN-WP01GS which is an RT2561S. My basic hostname.ral0 reads: inet 192.168.1.1 255.255.255.0 NONE media autoselect mode 11g mediaopt hostap nwid my_net nwkey secret chan 11. I've enabled RAL_DEBUG in my kernel and selected one of the standard channels with the highest power. This is on 4.2 -release + patches. If anyone has any new or additional information that might be helpful I would greatly appreciate it, otherwise I guess I'll stick to my trusted wi(4). -- James Turner BSD Group Consulting http://www.bsdgroup.org

You could trying manually chrooting into /var/www and running the
command by hand to see if it throws any useful warnings. You will need
a shell within the chroot while testing tho.

Re: USB Printer Recommendation
Well, it seems I'm still having issues with apsfilter. It prints the first 1/4 of the page on one sheet and the other 3/4 on another. I'm now trying the foomatic-rip script again, which is yielding the same result as last time. Some one emailed me a nice set of instructions off list, but I no longer have them since I thought apsfilter was working.

Re: ftpd/ftp help
Once again, I solved my own problem 10seconds after I emailed the list. You'd think the official FAQ would always be the first place one would look when they encounter a problem. http://www.openbsd.org/faq/pf/ftp.html#server On Mon, Mar 26, 2007 at 01:30:52AM -0400, James Turner wrote: > In the process of setting up ftpd I seem to have hit a snag.

ftpd/ftp help
In the process of setting up ftpd I seem to have hit a snag. When I try to ftp to my server from home (OpenBSD -current) all goes well until I issue the ls command. I get this error: "435 Can't build data connection: No such file or directory." I am able to ls when I connect from the server itself and from a linux box outside my home network. I figured it might be my nat rules but I am able to connect to other ftp sites just fine (like rt.fm). My inetd.conf looks like this "ftp stream tcp nowait root /usr/libexec/ftpd ftpd -AUS" and I opened up port 21 on my firewall. Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks.
Re: Strange locate behavior
Please disregard my last question. A simple search of the archive whould have told me all I wanted to know. This is what I get for typing first and reading second.
Strange locate behavior
I'm running OpenBSD -current from 3-10-07. I just ran "/usr/libexec/locate.updatedb" as root on my system. When I run "locate mutt" I get this error "locate database header corrupt, bigram char outside 0, 32-127: 14". I've tried to run locate.updatedb again but the following locate yields the same result. Any ideas?
Re: USB Printer Recommendation
Alright, I was able to get the printer to print using the apsfilter. Works awesome! Now to buy some ink and remove all traces of windows from my hard drive. Thanks again everyone!

Re: USB Printer Recommendation
Alright, well the disposition didn't have any cheap laser printers but I did find a HP DeskJet 810C for $15. I know you guys said stay away from inkjet printers, but the price was right and the hpijs driver says it supports it. It's connected via usb. I installed hpijs along with all it's dependencies.

USB Printer Recommendation
I'm looking to finally cut the last strand that keeps windows on my hard drive. I currently have a brother mfc-210c printer. I'm looking to replace it with a cheap openbsd/lpr friendly solution. Although the mfc is a multifunction printer, that is not a requirement for the new printer. It has finally sunk in how sad it is to have to keep windows just to print, it's also a pain in the ass to have to reboot every time I want to print. Any suggestions would be awesome, thanks.

soekris net4511 + ral + wep
I just got my soekris net4511 in the mail today. I've got it setup to my
liking minus wep support. Below is my /etc/hostname.ral0 and my dmesg.
When I use nwkey 0x0... my clients can no longer connect to the
wireless network. I was wondering if this is the method you use to set a
wep
key in hostap mode or if there is another way to do so.
Also I set "/dev/wd0a / ffs ro,noatime 1 1" is my /etc/fstab, but it
doesn't seem to mount read-only. I can still write to the system and my
chan
ges stay after a reboot. I get a Device-busy when it attempts to mount
during bootup.
Thanks.

fdformat a usb floppy drive
I recently got my hands on a IBM branded usb floppy drive. I am trying to
format it with fdformat before I dd the floppy40.fs image to it. Below is the
error that fdformat exits with and a full dmesg. The floppy information is at
the bottom. I've tried both attaching the drive with and without a floppy in
it. Thanks for any help.

Re: cvs usage question
I fixed the problem. It had nothing to do with using cvs through ssh. The key was running the cvs update in the background. So adding "^webapp ( cd /var/www/webapp; cvs -q update -d & )" to loginfo in my CVSROOT works perfectly with out any locking problems.

Re: cvs usage question
Below is the output of running cvs commit on my local repos. As you can see the update tries to run on the server side but when it gets to the directory where I edited a file it has a lock error. I'm guessing it's locked for the commit there for the update won't run on it.

Are you sure? `info cvs` says on page "C.3 The commit support files": :: `loginfo' :: The specified program is called when the commit is complete. /usr/bin/cvs is neither suid nor sgid. Did the user typing `cvs commit` have write permission below /var/www/webapp? If write permission below /var/www/webapp is indeed the issue biting you, the simple solution is putting /var/www/webapp into the same group the repository belongs to - the committing users need write access to the repository anyway, so additional write access to the web tree will cause little additional harm.

Thanks for the recommendation, your the second person to suggest cron. jcs@ suggested looking at loginfo in CVSROOT, but I haven't had much luck there.

This is not instantaneous but it works well enough for my sites. While you can adjust the timing to every five mins if you need it that quickly (as there would not be any bandwidth usage just disk IO) I found that this way results in way to much email confirming the updates during the times that I am not developing (while I am at work, or in bed for instance) and coming home to several hundred CVS update messages tends to get annoying, let alone makes my inbox a lot larger then I really want to deal with in a short amount of time. Hope this helps.

Re: SOLVED: apmd resume + xlock
Thanks for everyone's help. I got xlock working with the suspend script by just removing the -mode matrix option. The matrix mode uses to much cpu anyways. I know have xidle and suspend script working great. Thanks again.

I tried the script again without -mode matrix and it works just fine. It seems that running -mode matrix crashes x on resume.

Re: apmd resume + xlock
xidle was a great suggestion thanks. The below script doesn't work either, and for some reason when running apmd in debug mode nothing gets outputted from what I can tell. For locking the screen before suspend I'll probably just stick with Theo's suggestion and run xlock & zzz, although I would love it to work on lid closer also.

Then, when you start xlock by hand (probably from within X, thus giving it a valid DISPLAY to connect to), it runs as root simply because apmd runs as root. Try putting xidle in your .xinitrc and have that run xlock. xidle then runs under your own uid and will spawn an xlock owned by you which you can then unlock using your own password. An alternative might be to change your script. I have not tested the following, so it may or may not work : #!/bin/sh export DISPLAY=:0.0 sudo -u /usr/X11R6/bin/xlock -mode matrix I find this, however, to be ugly and not the way things should be done.

Re: OpenBSD 4.0 -current + cups-1.2.5p0
Forgot about that, thanks. It seems I miss spoke earlier. The package from Brother actually contained one linux binary and library file. After enabling linux emulation new errors keep popping up. It's so hard to debug this shit when each new shell script passes off it's output to another shell script using cat and pipes. Needless to say my eyes hurt to much to look at this anymore tonight.

3ware RAID status
I was wondering if there is any way to find out the status of a 3ware raid unit from within OpenBSD. If not is the current twe driver compatible with the 3ware tw_cli program if ran in linux or FreeBSD emulation? Also, is development still being done on this driver or has the lack of documentation provided by 3ware stalled all development? Thanks for any help.
Aironet MPI-350 Wireless Support?
I've looked through the mailing list archives and haven't found any recent information about Aironet MPI-350 Wireless support. I just did a fresh install of OpenBSD 3.9 on a ThinkPad T40 with this wireless card. Dmesg outputs this information ""Aironet MPI-350 Wireless" rev 0x00 at pci2 dev 2 function 0 not configured". I'm currently in the process of upgrading to -current in hopes that this card is now supported. Can anyone provide anymore information about the support of this card in OpenBSD? Thanks.
