Re: The firmware matter
B qnnayemhh nr 11 njrap 2008 c. Rafael Almeida m`ohq`k(a): Hello, From time to time I see people debating about blobs on kernels. I have some understanding of the issue, but it seems that everytime some issue comes out that I was not aware of. Not too recently I've seen a discussion regarding intel wireless device, people from linux seem to say it doesn't require blobs, though some openbsd users sugested otherwise. Linux people even refered to some sourceforge link, I think http://ipw2100.sourceforge.net/firmware.php was it. I believe there are some problems when it comes to firmware. In that sense, is there even wireless hardware that have no need for any kind of blob? A while ago I've seen theo slides about how hardware vendors do not suply the customer with documentation needed for him to operate the hardware any way he wants. That is a major problem because it does not let the user chose which operating system he will use. Now, couldn't the firmware be considered part of the hardware? Why need it be free? You can program the hardware without knowing about it, right? Yes. OpenBSD accepts firmware blobs. But also OpenBSD requires that firmware is freely _redistributable_. See the Intel wireless firmware license, and you'll see this point. Is there some hardware manufacturer that's actually concerned with the customer's freedom? I know some of them eventually release some documentation, but are there any hardware vendor which has providing documentation as one of its goals? Ralink? I know this is not enterily on topic, but I was looking for a mature open source comunity that's willing to discuss those matters with me. I hope I have found such comunity and I hope not to see too many (or not at all) aswers like 'linux just sucks' and the like (unless the phrase comes with proper justification, of course :-)).

Re: know any neat tricks for 2 * dhclient?
Oct 26 2005 c. 20:42 Graham Toal wrote: I wanted to set up a system which has two ether cards (it's part of a transparent bridge so it'll be inline with someone's connection) such that it'll pick up a DHCP address on *both* cards ... the trick comes from not knowing in advance whether the DHCP server will be on the inside connection or the net-facing one. (i.e. if the bridge is deployed near the network edge, the DHCP server is inside; but if it is deployed immediately in front of a single server, then it will see DHCP facing outwards). It *ought* to be possible to configure both hostname.xl0 and hostname.fxp1 as dhcp, and whichever one comes up first, will then bridge through the DHCP server for the other. Unfortunately it just happens by luck of alphabetical order, that the one which comes up first is *not* looking at a DHCP server. So after a relatively short period of retries it goes to sleep. Then the other interface asks for its dhcp address and gets it quickly. What I expected was that the first would sleep for a short time then ask again, and get it OK. I haven't seen that happen - about 30 minutes later and the interface still has no IP. What's the best way to ensure that they both get IPs as quickly as possible? I can think of some dirty hacks, but I don't like the solutions I've come up with. (For example, if I kick off the dhcp client requests in the background, that interferes with the rest of the boot sequence). Has anyone had this configuration before and come up with an elegant solution? May be I'm wrong (only one OBSD box with two NICs with different networks attached I heve this time is production box and cannot be switched off now), but maybe this helps: 1) Disable sysctl net.inet.ip.forwarding in sysctl.conf Then, in rc.local: 2) Initialize network manually (call dhclient) 3) Enable forwarding 4) Configure and wake up bridge IMHO, this'll look like static IP address given to bridge interfaces... -- With my best, Pereresus ne Vlezaet Buggy
