Hello,

The version of gimp installed on my openindiana 2022.10 could not handle 
jpegs so I uninstalled id and tried to reinstall it with the following 
result (sorry, my computer speaks French...)

[OpenIndiana-discuss] mate system monitor does not work any more on recent versions of openindiana

[Marc Lobelle]

Hello,

I updated openindiana from 2021-10 to 2022-10 on my notebook and the 
mate system monitor does not start if I click on the widget: the widget 
is still there and displays cpu usage, but if I click on it to get the 
window with full information, I see a hourglass for a few seconds then 
nothing: it seems to crash before opening the window.


Is there a workaround ?

Thanks

Hello!

In one of my earlier update-tests i had a problem with the first OI-nvidia-525 
version in cooperation with Virtualbox,
so i had the idea to test this:

I uninstalled 'userland-incorporation' and 'entire' as prerequisite to  install 
nvidia version 515,
now it boots!

So, nvidia in the most recent version 525 stopped the boot process. (?)

i checked with NVidia Solaris Driver Archive that my chipset (Quadro M1200) is 
on the supported list for this version:
https://www.nvidia.com/Download/driverResults.aspx/199661/en-us/


How/Why should the display driver be able to interrupt the boot process ?
How/Why should the display driver be able to interrupt the boot process without 
further notice?


That is something one can work out with debugger. But, this is binary only 
driver? Built *for Oracle Solaris 11.4*? With API interfaces changed inside 
Oracle Solaris? This means, the question is not “if” but “when” - it is only 
question of time when such drivers become unusable for us. Without gfx driver 
development, the desktop variant of illumos is dead end.


without desktop, it would unfortunately mean the dead of illumos. If 
Oracle solaris drivers become unusable shouldn't illumos move to another 
driver interface that is maintained ?


Best regards

Marc

[OpenIndiana-discuss] update failed ??

[Marc Lobelle]

Hello,

A few days ago, I tried to update openindiana on a HP notebook elitebook 
2560P (with intel core i7), as I do regularly on my systems (I always 
first try updates on an older computer I might afford to loose...: well, 
this time I lost it!). I did:


#pkg refresh --full

#pkg update -v

When rebooting, I got the following information:

cpu0 microcode has been upfdated from version 0x18 to version 0x2f

Openindiana Hipster 2022.10 version 58b0c75051

VMX support disabled  by BIOS

Then came error messages:

1. on Feb 22  23:30:54: module nvidia not found (I do not think there
   is nvidia hardware in this notebook: as far as I remember it is all
   Intel, thus I assume there is nothing wrong with this)
2. on Feb 22 23:32:56: network/ipfilter times out and transitioned to
   maintenance: this should not block the system: this service is not
   activated by default
3. on Feb 23 00:00:54: milestone/multi-user timed out and transitioned
   to maintenance.

The notebook did not print anything after that: it looks blocked

Of course I assume I could reboot an old BE, but will doing that and 
retrying the update provide a working and up to date system ? Was there 
a problem with this version of OI ? If yes, is it solved ?


Thanks

cups problem not yet solved

HTH.

I tried. The core is not that of cupsd but that of cups-browsed, and 
this did not crash but was killed by sigkill


Reading symbols from /usr/sbin/cups-browsed...(no debugging symbols 
found)...done.


Note that I forgot to check how old this file was, thus it was not 
necessarily relevant

(gdb)


Then I looked at the startup script of the service 
(/lib/svc/method/svc-cupsd) and this one starts gutenprint and then 
/usr/sbin/cupsd.


If I try to start cupsd manually, it works and does not stop. It prints  
the test page, although with a message "filter failed" on the cups web 
page. If configured for black and white, the printing is OK, in colors, 
the black is purple, but my printer is an old brother MFC9330-CDW 
emulating a hp printer. However, when I print from a windows machine, 
the colors are OK.


I had the color problem before, but the service did not crash: thus its 
probably anothe problem



Then I discovered that I had , in the svcs list, a legacy server 
"cups-browsed" surviving from an old release:


ls -l /usr/sbin/*cups*

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 févr. 10  2022 /usr/sbin/cupsreject -> 
cupsaccept*


removing the legacy service on /etc/rc3.d has apparently for result 
that, on reboot, the cups service is running, but it crashes as soon as 
I try to print something.


If restart cupsd manually (/usr/sbin/cupsd), it starts and prints the 
jobs remaining in the queue (all are marked :stopped filter failed)


There is apparently no new core file (I checked running "updatedb; 
locate -b '\core'|more")
The only difference between starting cupsd manually or as a service is 
that, as a sevice, the gutenprint command is run before starting cupsd

[OpenIndiana-discuss] fail2ban

[Marc Lobelle]

Hello all,

I had installed fail2ban about 10 years ago, following instructions by 
jarret@megatron related to omnios and it worked nicely since that time.


Unfortunately, svcs told me that it is now in maintenance mode.

Is there an openindiana package for this program ? I'm running 
openindiana 2022.10 and just updated all packages.


Thanks for your help,

Marc

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] problem adding a mirror disk to rpool

[Marc Lobelle]

Indeed, finally, I created on the second disk of the mirror, with fdisk, 
the same partition (solaris 2, 100%, bootable) as on the first disk, 
then I copied the vtoc using prtvtoc anf fmthard, then used zpool 
replace and zpool clean and everything is now OK, according to zpool 
status. It was the fdisk phase that was missing in my original procedure.


Did the resilvering also copy the booting stuff or should I run 
installgrub ?


Thank you all for your help

Anybody has an idea on how to solve this issue ? I did not yet

On the first disk format says

    Total disk size is 58369 cylinders
 Cylinder size is 16065 (512 byte) blocks

   Cylinders

[OpenIndiana-discuss] problem adding a mirror disk to rpool

Hello,

First, Best wished for 2023 to everybody !

I tried to add a second 480Gb disk to my rpool (different manufacturer 
and slightly larger)


Below is what I did, but apparently there is a problem and the case

Sujet : mounting a usb disk
Date : Sun, 11 Sep 2022 12:23:25 +0200
De : Marc Lobelle 
Pour : develo...@lists.illumos.org



Hello,

On most openindiana systems I used, as soon as I inserted a usb key,
it was automatically monted and displayed on the desktop.

Apparently it is not any more the case, and I cannot even mount it
using mount or rmmount (maybe I do not do it the right way).

If I try rmformat, I see the usb device:

1. Logical Node /dev/rdsk/c5t0d0p0

     Physical Node ...

    Connected Device: USB DISK 2.0 PMAP

    Device type Removable

   Bus USB

    Size 7,7 GB

    Label 

    Access permission  media not write protected


What should I do to mount this usb key ?

Thanks

Marc



Hi!

You may want to try this hint from David Stes:

# svcadm restart system/hal
# svcadm enable rmvolmgr

..but this issue  should be solved since March..

Maybe your USB stick is formatted differently now? FAT32 or EXFAT or
NTFS or whatever?

Regards,

Stephan

[OpenIndiana-discuss] problem updating openindiana

[Marc Lobelle]

Hello,

I tried several times and on two different computers to update 
openindiana the last days:


# pkg refresh --full

# pkg update -v

It does not work: I get the following message many times for different 
files. The last one is:



The following packages all deliver file actions to 
*usr/share/doc/NVIDIA/html/flippingubb.html*:


pkg://openindiana.org/driver/graphics/nvidia@515.76,5.11-2022.0.0.0:20220926T195556Z
pkg://openindiana.org/driver/graphics/nvidia-340@340.108,5.11-2022.0.0.0:20220927T205749Z

These packages cannot be installed together. Any non-conflicting subset
of the above packages can be installed.

The two nvidia packages are obviously conflicting.

Can this be solved ?

Thanks

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] lightdm greeter keyboard

[Marc Lobelle]

Hello,

Unfortunately, setting "xserver-layout=be" in the [seat:*] section of 
the file /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf does not set the keyboard to Belgian 
in the greeter and setting "greeter-setup-script=/usr/bin/setxkbmap be"  
used to work but now crashes lightdm.


Does anybody know how to force lightdm to use a specific keyboard for 
the login (greeter) session, with the current version of openindiana (I 
updated it this morning).

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] Fwd: mounting a usb disk + what's wrong now with lightdm

[Marc Lobelle]

Dear Stephan,

Thanks for your help.

Even with the two commands the automatic mounting does not work. 
However, I could mount the key manually when I remembered that DOS puts 
the FAT32 in the first partition, not on the entire disk. Thus "mount 
/dev/dsk/c5t0d0p1 /mnt" worked. I had tried erroneously  "mount 
/dev/dsk/c5t0d0p0 /mnt".


Thus I could read the key. However, as said earlier automatic usb 
mounting does not work. Thus I tried


# pkg refresh --full

# pkg update -v

*When rebooting the new environment, lightdm was put in maintenance 
mode, apparently some files are missing. Could the person who put the 
new lightdm package check and complete  it and tell us when we may 
reinstall it - Thanks to him or her.*


Thanks again and best regards

Marc

Hello,

On most openindiana systems I used, as soon as I inserted a usb key, 
it was automatically monted and displayed on the desktop.


Apparently it is not any more the case, and I cannot even mount it 
using mount or rmmount (maybe I do not do it the right way).


If I try rmformat, I see the usb device:

1. Logical Node /dev/rdsk/c5t0d0p0

    Physical Node ...

   Connected Device: USB DISK 2.0 PMAP

   Device type Removable

  Bus USB

   Size 7,7 GB

   Label 

   Access permission  media not write protected


What should I do to mount this usb key ?

Thanks

Marc



Hi!

You may want to try this hint from David Stes:

# svcadm restart system/hal
# svcadm enable rmvolmgr

..but this issue  should be solved since March.
Yes but I cannot update this system from 202110, because it has no 
network because the driver is on the usb key...


Maybe your USB stick is formatted differently now? FAT32 or EXFAT or 
NTFS or whatever?
It is a FAT32, but, I tried also an old stick (also FAT32) that did work 
on openindiana in the past. I even tried a zfs SATA ssd trough a sata to 
usb2 adaptor. The OS supports all of these (according to 
/var/adm/messages and rmformat), but even with the two above commands, I 
cannot mount anything so far via usb


Regards,

Stephan

This disk is windows only. I was the only one when I bought the computer.I 
never modified its microsoft sriucture. I added the second disk to have 
openindiana. Originally I had a 500GB ssd for openindiana but it crashed 
(probably too many bad blocks) and I replaced it temporarily with a 120GB ssd I 
had on a shelf. There I had to reinstall everything from distro and back-ups 
because the old 500GB disk was unusable. Now I bought a new 1TB disk. I 
connected it as external usb disk and made it a mirror of the 120 GB One but I 
made the error of run bootadm installboot without -M so it garbled the boot 
structure of both disks. Now I try to fix the boot structure, first of the 
120Gb then of the 1TB

This one is interesting - only partition 1 and 3 are known, it should not 
affect us, its just interesting (we should see illumos ZFS there).

Much more interesting are partition sizes. If p3 is really windows, then p2 or 
p4 do not have enough space to store rpool — ould expect to see minimum some 
16GB or so (/ file system should take some 5+ GB of space).

rpool is on disk0. The only damage there is probably due to bootadm 
installboot, so I cannot anymore boot disk0. Also I detached this disk from the 
mirror I had made to transfer (by resilvering its contents to the bigger one) . 
Can this harm bootability of this disk , used alone ??



um, if you did detach this disk from rpool, then disk disk has no importable 
pool (data is not wiped, but the pool on it is made inaccessible. You want to 
use zpool split instead - that would create new, accessible pool.


too late for that: I cannot boot it, but I could insert the 1TB disk 
instead of the detached one . The 1TB was not detached, but the only 
difference is that it is not detached from the pool, I shall not be able 
to boot it either.


Is there a way to fix the effect of " bootadm installboot without -M" 
from an installation dvd or usbkey ?

Also, start system from usb/cd media, on boot loader menu, press esc to get ok 
prompt. From ok prompt, enter lsdev -v.

lsdev -v should output the partitioning, it would be interesting to see it.

same result as above, just the cd0 is added as bios drive E

Also, does it list your rpool? If it does, you can see default dataset name 
from the lsdev output, enter:

ok set currdev=zfs:rpool/ROOT/datasetname:

it says device not configured, but if I say disk0 instead of zfs, it does not 
complain

I typed menu then selected chainload disk0, after some time it went back to the 
HP greeting screen


ok boot

it boots the dvd when I just type boot after set currdev=zfs...

make sure you have that trailing colon there. This does not make it bootable, 
but we can have some details about setup.

At this time,we do not have an access to EFI runtime functions, so, we only do install boot 
loader as generic efi application (/boot/bootx64.efi). If you have 
dual/multiboot setupand have this binary from some other OS, you need to make backup of it 
first, then after bootloader install/update,you need to create alternate locationfor it, 
like /boot/illumos/ and create UEFIboot manager configuration in firmware setup 
and restore the original bootx64.efi.

The problem is without an access to EFI RT functions, we can not access/create 
efi bootmanager variables, and thats why we do use default.

Please note, every pkg update may also update the boot loader (depending on if 
the bootloader has received some change - see installboot -i).

Also, bootadm does internally use installboot, and we do install boot support 
for both UEFI and BIOS boot.

However my bios could not boot from this usb disk when I tried to place it in 
the internal slot, so I rebooted the old internal disk, with the usb disk 
connected . Then I detached old internal disk and now the notebook runs on the 
external disk.

Of course, my aim is to put the new inside the notebook at the place where the 
old one was.

I assume that there are probably things to change in the new disk before 
putting it in the notebook.

Besides, now that the old internal disk has been detached, can I still reboot 
the computer with only the old internal disk

My current situation is thus that I booted from the internal disk, attached the 
external one and detached the internal one (at this point everything runs fine)

My two questions are thus:
1. Now that I have detached the disk inside the computer, can I still
reboot with only this disk ? i.e. may I stop the computer, remove the usb 
disk that is now the only one remainin

force installation of a "legacy" MDB boot.


So, at this point, the only way to run openindiana on the system to fix 
this issue is running it from the installation dvd. However, if I type 
zpool list on that, I do not see any pool even if I boot it with 
reconfigure. How can I install the booting stuff on the internal disk of 
the system from an openidiana running on the installation dvd. Some 
versions of bootadm allow specifying the device on which to install the 
booting  stuff, but not the bootdm on openindiana.


Thanks for your help

to have been fixed. I do not know why I had the use the full pathname 
of the new disk. Maybe it is due to the fact that the new disk was 
connected to a usb adaptor.


So what I did is

/devices/pci@0,0/pci103c,807c@14/storage@d/disk@0,0:q


# bootadm install-bootloader -P rpool



However my bios could not boot from this usb disk when I tried to 
place it in the internal slot, so I rebooted the old internal disk, 
with the usb disk connected . Then I detached old internal disk and 
now the notebook runs on the external disk.


# zpool detach rpool c6t0d0s0

Of course, my aim is to put the new inside the notebook at the place 
where the old one was.


I assume that there are probably things to change in the new disk 
before putting it in the notebook.


Besides, now that the old internal disk has been detached, can I 
still reboot the computer with only the old internal disk


My current situation is thus that I booted from the internal disk, 
attached the external one and detached the internal one (at this 
point everything runs fine)


My two questions are thus:



1. Now that I have detached the disk inside the computer, can I still
   reboot with only this disk ? i.e. may I stop the computer, remove 
the usb disk that is now the only one remaining from the mirror 
consisting of the internal and the external disk. ie does the boot 
know that his disk is not part of the mirror ?



2. Do I have to change something in the new disk to connect it as sata
   drive rather than as usb drive and boot the system from it ?

Thanks, I wait for your advice before risking to turn off the notebook

[OpenIndiana-discuss] what is this computer doing ?

[Marc Lobelle]

Hello,

My openindiana server has 4 cores. On the system monitor, the average 
load of each core is around 60%, even when the machine does not do anything


Here is a snapshot of top. The top process is the gam-server (what does 
it do? I do not touch the disks)


and the two active processes, gam_server and imapd eat each around 1/4th 
of a core


Does anybody understand what is happening ?

Thanks

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] usb key installer

[Marc Lobelle]

Hi Gabriele,

If it is a recent computer, the problem might be that the bios includes 
secure boot for microsoft that only allows to boot windows secured with 
secure boot. It must be disabled in the bios to be able to boot anything 
else. As long as your machine is not a dual-boot system 
Openindiana/windows, there is no problem with disabling this secure boot 
feature. For dual boot systems, there is a workaround, ask me if you 
need it.


Best regards

Anyone had this problem?

Any clue?

Thanks. Indeed this is what I thought. In my case the ssd was dying (the

FYI, both hard drives and SSDs internally reallocate defective sectors onto working ones when the problem 
"block" is written over (it is really just an address, and it changes out the physical storage 
location backing it).  With SSDs it is actually more internally complex than hard drives, but the principle 
is the same: the OS doesn't track the defective sectors, the drive does, and fills in with spare working 
sectors when it gets new data, so the OS doesn't have to care.  This is what the "current pending 
sectors", "offline uncorrectable", etc in the SMART attributes mean.

For hard drives, some sectors going bad is an early sign that there may be a 
catastrophic failure in the near future.  For SSDs, it isn't as clear what it 
means - it could be a one-time event from unexpected power loss, if the drive 
isn't robust to that (some drive models are designed to handle it, others lose 
recent writes, and some become bricks), or being powered off for a very long 
time, or outside its temperature range, or it could be manufacturing defects, 
etc.

there are two possible causes, either it is some sort of network issue (truss

retrieving data from: [Errno 5] I/O error.*

Anybody knows what to do ?

Thanks and best regards

Marc

there are two possible causes, either it is some sort of network issue (truss 
-f pkg…. and see what will get EIO), or it is issue with local storage (zpool 
scrub?).

[OpenIndiana-discuss] python module missing in pcs package

[Marc Lobelle]

Hello all,

pcs is a package of python programs intended to manage a high 
availability cluster based on corosync and pacemaker. Unfortunately a 
python module called *pcs.common* is missing in the package ans 
therefore, all the programs of the package crash.


Does anyone know where I could get it ? Ha anybody else tried to install 
pcs ?


Thanks

Marc

[OpenIndiana-discuss] problem with pcs package

[Marc Lobelle]

hello,

I'm trying to install pacemaker, a software implementing high 
availability clusters.


Openindiana includes a package called pacemaker. It includes a 
communication software called corosync. This one I managed to get 
running as a smf service.


However, the documentation on pacemaker (Clusters from scratch release 
2.1.2) explains how to launch pacemaker using a command called pcs, that 
is not included in the pacemaker package. However, openindiana has also 
a package called pcs. Thus I installed it and tried it:


    ml@mosquito:/export/home/ml# pcs status corosync
    Traceback (most recent call last):

Where is this pcs.common module ?

[OpenIndiana-discuss] problems for setting up a high availability cluster on two openindiana machines

[Marc Lobelle]

Hello all,

I'm trying to user the openindiana pacemaker package, using as 
documentation the "Clusters from scratch release 2.1.2", wich assumes 
CENT-OS(LINUX) as underlying OS and a 2014 document called "Use 
pacemaker and corosync on Illumos (OmniOS) to run a Ha active/passive 
cluster.", starting from the section "Corosync configuration". The user 
is hacluster and he has the right to su and sudo, to ssh to the other 
node without password nor passphrase. I attached the corosync 
configuration file, the smf manifest and the smf startup script.


When I start the corosync service and look at what happened, I get this:

root@mosquito:~# cat `svcs -L corosync`

[OpenIndiana-discuss] printing problem

[Marc Lobelle]

I use two notebooks with the same up-to-date version of openindiana. One 
of them can print from any application; the other, only from libreoffice 
. The only difference I found is that in the one where printing works, 
the PrinterId in /etc/cups/printers.conf  is 1 and in the other, it is 
4. There used to be 3 printers configured on this computer years ago. I 
destroyed them and added the only available one, but it got the Id 4. 
Could this be the cause of the problem? Can I change this id in cups ?


Thanks

Marc

[OpenIndiana-discuss] arn driver for Atheros AR9287 wireless network adapter (PCI-express)

[Marc Lobelle]

Hello,

I update openindiana on an old fujitsu lifebook P notebook, and instead 
of not recognising the internal wifi card it says now: "misconfigured: 
[arn]"


man arn only talks about AR9280, 81, 85.

Does anyone know what could be misconfigured ?

Thanks

Marc

This notebook works so far with an usb wifi interface Edimax, with the 
urtwn driver, but, if possible, I would prefer using the internal 
pci-express wifi card.

[OpenIndiana-discuss] queer effect in openindiana 2021-10

[Marc Lobelle]

Hello,

I had several times a queer behaviour of openindiana after working some 
time as su and rebooting: I could not anymore login with my login name, 
because I was not anymore owner of the file .cache/dconf/user  . It 
belonged to root. I had to login via ssh from another computer or as 
another user (allowed to su), then su and chown this file.


I had never noticed this in the past. I assume that this "user" file is 
modified when working as root and gets root ownership. Of course, I 
don't know which recent "improvement" caused this side effect, but I 
would prefer it to be removed if possible.


Thanks and best regards

Marc

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] missing deadkeys in be keyboard

[Marc Lobelle]

Hello Andreas,

Thanks for your answer,

Indeed, in the meantime, I found that the problem was that libreoffice 
did not use the selected keyboard but worked through ibus whose daemon 
is not running by default. To solve the problem, I had to go through the 
mate menus: System>Control center>IBus preferences


then I was prompted t start the daemon, which I accepted

then I started libreoffice and the dead keys worked as in other 
applications such as the terminal window or pluma (where they always 
worked).


To start this daemon automatically rather than manually as above. I 
tried to add /usr/bin/ibus-daemon -d  or /usr /usr/bin/ibus-daemon -dr 
to the programs to start at start-up in the control center. ibus is then 
running but the dead keys do not work in libreoffice. Then I read on the 
web that it should be started */usr/bin/ibus-daemon --xim* and indeed, 
this way, it works, but xim is reputed to be obsolete*...

*

Best regards

Marc

Hi,

Mate comes with a keyboard selection tool. You can choose there from 
different layouts for Belgian keyboards as I checked now.
As far as I can tell you'll need to start the ibus service to make the 
deadkey functionality working. There is also a Mate tool for it.

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] missing deadkeys in be keyboard

[Marc Lobelle]

Hello everybody,

Apparently, the BE keyboard is decribed in /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/be.

However, the deadkeys are present in this file, as shown below

   // based on a keyboard map from an 'xkb/symbols/be' file

   default partial alphanumeric_keys
   xkb_symbols "basic" {

    include "latin"

    name[Group1]="Belgian";

    key     { [ ampersand,  1,  bar,
   exclamdown ]    };
    key     { [    eacute,  2, at,    oneeighth ]    };
    key     { [  quotedbl,  3, numbersign,
   sterling ]    };
    key     { [apostrophe,  4, onequarter,  
   dollar ]    };
    key     { [ parenleft,  5,  onehalf,
   threeeighths ]    };
    key     { [   section,  6,  asciicircum,
   fiveeighths ]    };
    key     { [    egrave,  7,    braceleft,
   seveneighths ]    };
    key     { [    exclam,  8, bracketleft,   
   trademark ]    };
    key     { [  ccedilla,  9, braceleft,   
   plusminus ]    };
    key     { [    agrave,  0, braceright,  
   degree ]    };
    key     { [parenright, degree,    backslash,
   questiondown ]    };
    key     { [ minus, underscore, dead_cedilla, 
   dead_ogonek ]    };

    key     { [ a,  A,   at,
   Greek_OMEGA ]    };
    key     { [ z,  Z, lstroke,  Lstroke
   ]    };
    key     { [ e,  E, EuroSign, cent
   ]    };
    key   { [ o,  O, oe,   OE ] }; //
   o O œ Œ
    key     { [dead_circumflex, dead_diaeresis,  bracketleft,
   dead_abovering ] };
    key     { [    dollar,   asterisk, bracketright,
   dead_macron ]    };

    key     { [ q,  Q, ae,   AE ]    };
    key     { [ m,  M, dead_acute,
   dead_doubleacute ] };

Thus apparently, the BE keyboard is not the be keyboard described in 
/usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/be.


Does anyone know where the keyboards tha are effectively used are 
located and/or how to use the good one, described in 
/usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/be ?


Thanks,

Marc

Hi Carsten,

I used it 20 years ago: it was the final work of one of my students in

maintained it a few years and changed the name to ekiga. his name is 
Damien Sandras

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] Multiboot on PC

[Marc Lobelle]

On "computers", I agree that it's better to run only OI, but there are 
needed applications (Teams, Zoom, and other proprietary stuff you 
sometimes have to use) that do not run on OI (as far as I know) and when 
you travel, carrying 2 notebooks, One OI and one windows, is not 
comfortable, so my notebooks are in dual boot OI/windows and use the OI 
bootloader. The trick is to install windows first(often it is 
preinstalled), use a tool to reduce the NTFS partition, then install OI 
in tjhe freed place and modify the boot menu to add a line for windows. 
As far as I remember, my notebooks use MBR but a 2 TB disk is OK on a 
notebook


The problem of dual boot systems is that you have to stop OI to run 
Windows. Is there now a way to run windows reliably and without 
performance loss and with access to all peripherals  on top of 
openindiana? I would gladly try it.


Thanks

Marc

[OpenIndiana-discuss] problem with wifi on current version of openindiana

[Marc Lobelle]

Hello,

 I worked mostly from home the last months, so I mainly used my desktop 
openindiana and little my laptops, and then, with wired connections.


This week I had to use one of my laptops somewhere else and I could not 
connect to the wifi (with WPA2 security). So I tried manually and I 
managed to connect at datalink level to the wifi but not to connect to 
the internet.


Back at home I tried a wifi connection and it did not connect either.

Then I tried an older boot environment.

Conclusion: with BE openindiana 2020:04:04:no wifi

with BE openidiana 2019:10:07: wifi works (iwn0)

Note that with BE 2020:04:04, the wired connection works (e1000g0), but 
the network icon is not there in the top bar of the desktop


All this happened on a HP elitebook 2560p

I observed the same behavior on a fujitsu lifebook P770 with a different 
hardware(using a EDIMAX usb wifi adapter (the "native" wifi of this 
notebook is not supported by openindiana).


Did anybody else observe this wifi problem, maybe related to NWAM ?

Is there a fix ?

Thanks

Marc

Also, Thundebird now compacts folders: is it possible to disable that 
feature: I'm not interested in saving a few gigabytes (my mail forders 
represent over 100 GB: I use them as document archiving system; but for

[OpenIndiana-discuss] problem related to avahi when trying to print from pluma

[Marc Lobelle]

Hello,

Up to a few days ago, I could print from pluma.

(At that time and still now, when starting pluma, a lot of warning 
messages are printed in the command line window from which I start pluma:


   Theme parsing error: :5:22: The :focused pseudo-class is
   deprecated. Use :focus instead.

If there is a cleaner way to avoid that than redirecting error messages 
from pluma to /dev/null, I would be interested in)


However, my main problem with pluma is that since a few days, pluma 
cannot print any more and says:


   GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name
   org.freedesktop.Avahi was not provided by any .service files

Avahi is installed on my OI-hipster2020.4 system, but svcs doesn't show 
it and svcadm enable avahi does not find it. ps -aef does not show it 
either.


The only things I changed recently in my system were adding fail2ban, 
but I think the printing problem with pluma is older, adding 
CSWlibgamin1-0-0 that is needed by cswcourier-imap, and adding 
emailrelay. After installing emailrelay, pluma was still able to print.


Does anybody know where to look or whag could be wrong ?

Thanks

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] Concerning replacing mirrored boot disks

[Marc Lobelle]

Hello,

i have two comments having done something similar recently:

1. about the disk slots: for rotating disks, it is important to locate
   them in slots, but ssds are entirely enclosed electronic circuits so
   the can just be let loose (or attached say with double stick tape)
   anywhere in the box
2. If you really want to keep your environment as it is (with boot and
   every thing), first dd your entire disk to a new bigger one then
   boot on it start moving out what you wish.

Personnaly, I lived several years with 2 2TB disks in mirror with just a 
rpool on these and I added a 120G ssd as cache to the rpool.
When I needed more space, I used zpool split to change the mirrored 
rpool in a single disk rpool and other disk named backuppool.
Then I removed all disks and installed a fresh system (OI-Hipster2020.04 
on a 500G ssd. Then I added two 4TB disks and created a mirrored dpool 
on it. Then I connected and imported backuppool, I used rsync to 
transfer data to zfs file systems on dpool.
zpool status complained that backuppool used an old version of zfs. I 
did not upgrade it, in order to keep the possibility to use it in the 
the old configuration (the whole transfer operation takes a lot of time 
so I regularly had to reuse the old configuration and had to be able to 
transfer data to the new one using rsinc to and from the backup disk).
Finally I added a second 500G ssd to have a mirrored rpool and the 120 
GB as cache to the mirrored dpool.
Note that only the two 4TB rotating disks are in disks slots. The ssd 
are just sticked here and there in the box. The do not heat much, so 
they atre happy anuwhere.

I hope these coments can help you.
Good luck
Marc

I use mirrored pairs too.  Disks do fail.  The system just keeps on

I had a disk failure some time ago that is one of the mirrored boot
disks. I have yet to fix that.

They were a pair of 700 GB disks I had on hand so used them for the
boot root disk pair some yrs ago now.  They are now a bit old and may
be hard to replace with matching new disk

. . . (Hope this doesn't all just sound like gobbledy goop) ...

Because of the hefty 700gb size for root OS and boot bits, overtime
I've allowed data filesystems to creep onto them.

You may not be able to find a disk that small anymore.  1TB is about
the smallest available now.  I use a pair of these as data disks, and
a pair of SSDs for the OS.  The SSDs are faster than rotating disks,
of course.  I get the smallest SSDs I can find.  That is about
120GB these days.


Of course I need to replace the bad disk.

I want to reduce the size of the boot disks anyway and totally avoid
having any data but OS on them. So, first off I will get the extra FS
off of working  boot disk.  (I currently have plenty of room)

So wondering a bit about how to proceed from there.

I think I'd like to replace the bad disk with new 250 GB HDD.

You can certainly start by replacing the bad disk with a 1TB disk.
Then, you can replace the other one.  zfs will do all of that easily.
That may be all you need to do.


Assuming the data on the remaining boot 700gb disk is smaller than 250
gb, (In the actual case it will be a good bit smaller and only contain
OS) will the silvering of new smaller disk work?

Will the 700 GB and 250 GB be able to pair that way?

I'd recommend larger data disks and smaller boot disks, both mirrored.
This may not be possible, depending on how many disk slots your case
has.  There are brackets that allow two SSDs to fit in one slot.
Still, you'd need three slots.


Will it be possible to transfer the boot bits to the new 250 GB?

I've never done that.  There is a way to transfer the boot device to
a new device.  I recall that was safe and fairly easy, but I haven't
done that for a while.  Most of the work was done by:

 beadm create ... -p ...

[OpenIndiana-discuss] setting a default keyboard for the sessions

[Marc Lobelle]

Hello,

I recently installed OI-hipster2020.04.

In this system, the default keyboard seems to always be "en". It can be 
changed by clicking on "en" on the right of the top widget bar, but it 
would be more convenient not to have to do it when beginning each session.


In order to get this effect for the greeter screen, I added 
"greeter-setup-script= /usr/bin/setxkbmap be" at the end of the [Seat:*] 
section of /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf, but doing the same with 
session-setup-script has no effect


Adding "xserver-command=Xorg -keyboard be" does not work either.

What's the way to do it ?

Thanks

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] disk problem

[Marc Lobelle]

 don't think that there was anything special about CentOS 6.7. It 
happened to be the Linux distro I was using at the time. Since I've switched to Debian 9.3. I'm 
pretty sure I used Debian to set up the disk when I added a mirror for the 3 TB disk, but I didn't 
find any notes about that. So I have to presume I just stuck the drive in and followed my notes 
from before when I was replacing a failed 512 sector 3 TB disk with a 2k sector disk.

I'm running three 2 TB disks in RAIDZ1 for the export pool and a 3 way mirror 
for rpool using a pair of slices both for Hipster 2017.10 and Sol 10. I have 
the Sol 10 box offline on an isolated network. I prefer twm for programming 
work and that is far more work to set up on Hipster than I care to endure. So 
Hipster is my Internet box and Sol 10 is my serious work box. At one time I ran 
twm on one screen and CDE on the other to keep 3rd party stuff happy.

The Sol 10 box has a 2 way 3 TB mirror scratch space. Probably not needed now, 
but I used to do seismic processing which needs lots of scratch space. I've 
also got an N40L with RAIDZ2 on four 2 TB disks with a 4 way mirror for rpool 
for backups.

Good luck,
Reg

[OpenIndiana-discuss] updating from 0I-hipster 2016.04

[Marc Lobelle]

Dear All,

I have a small server which is running OI-Hipster 2016.04. May I, 
without risks update it to the current OI-hipster (2019.10) using


#pkg refresh --full

# pkg update -v


This server has 2TB disks in mirror mode plus a small ssd in cache mode. 
I would like to replace the 2TB disks with 4 TB disks. What is the 
safest procedure to do this ?


I do not remember the size of the ssd and the paper label on the disk is 
unreadable, but from what zpool status say, I assume it is 8G.


Is it useful to replace this cache with a larger ssd. If yes what size 
makes sense. And how should I proceed to make the change ?


Thanks in advance


Marc

[OpenIndiana-discuss] WPA2 support

[Marc Lobelle]

Dear all,

I observed several times than my notebook (running OI-hipster 2019.04) 
could not connect to the WIFI: it remains in the "connecting" stage. 
Recently, I discovered that the corresponding access points were using 
WPA2 and not WPA. Is this supported by OI-hipster? What shoud I do. It 
is really annoying because my current smart phone, that I use as access 
point when I do not have any network, is one of the WPA2-only APs ?

Thanks

Hello Alexander,

Thanks, it works fine: I can now look at videos on firefox and visualize

image to burn the video on dvd ?

Thanks again

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] Σχετ: Re: support for exFAT in openindiana

[Marc Lobelle]

Thanks, there are indeed several ways to force windows to clear its 
cache. There was also one in my previous mail.

My last question was rather to know if there is a way to make it 
possible to rmvolmgr in OI-hipster to mount the ntfs sd card 
automatically like it does with pcfs cards.

Thanks in advance for your help

Marc

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] Σχετ: Re: support for exFAT in openindiana

[Marc Lobelle]

Hello Apostolos,

Indeed, it works when mounting manually the sd card

root@firefly:~# fstyp /dev/dsk/c4t0d0p1
lowntfs-3g
root@firefly:~#  mount -F ntfs /dev/dsk/c4t0d0p1 /mnt
root@firefly:~# ls /mnt
./  RADECS2017_v52.pdf*
../ System Volume Information/

However, if I try to mount the windows partition of the main disk, it says:
root@firefly:~# fstyp /dev/dsk/c5t0d0p2
lowntfs-3g
root@firefly:~# mount -F lowntfs /dev/dsk/c5t0d0p2 /windows
The disk contains an unclean file system (0, 0).
Metadata kept in Windows cache, refused to mount.
Falling back to read-only mount because the NTFS partition is in an
unsafe state. Please resume and shutdown Windows fully (no hibernation
or fast restarting.)
Could not mount read-write, trying read-only

After disabling, "fast restarting" and "hibernation" in Windows 10, the windows 
partition can easily be mounted.

The last problem is that , while FAT32 formated sd cards are automatically 
mounted by rmvolmgr, ntfs cards are not mounted automatically. Do you know if 
there is somewhere a configuration file to update ?
Thanks

Marc

[OpenIndiana-discuss] where is the applet gving the state of the battery

[Marc Lobelle]

Hello,

I noticed the the applet giving the state of the battery on the top 
panel is not available any more. Is there a way to get it back: I do not 
see it  if  I ask "add to panel" ?

It is realy helpful when one uses a notebook.

Thanks  and best regards

[OpenIndiana-discuss] A boot sector question

[Marc Lobelle]

hello,

There are 3 partitions on my notebook, 2 related to windows, where an 
old windows 7 resides and one with OI-Hipster (up to date). Very long 
ago I had first installed Windows 7, then Solaris  11, which replaced 
the windows boot block with a multiboot. Recently, I replaced Solaris 11 
by OI-Hipster.

Now I hear that Microsoft will shortly drop support for Windows 7, thus 
I tried to upgrade it to windows 10, but this does not work, probably 
because Windows does not find his own boot block.

Is there a simple way to replace OI-hipster's boot block by the one of 
windows and later back to OI-Hipster's after upgrading windows ?

Thanks

Тема: [OpenIndiana-discuss] strange behaviour of last OI hipster

Hello,

I recently installed OI-hipster on my notebook and I noticed a very
strange behaviour: if I close the lid when I am logged on, it reboots.
This does not happen when I am not logged on (i.e. when it displays the
login screen).

Of course I do not want this.

I noticed a new button "mettre en veille" probably sleep mode in English
among the buttons of the system/shutdown drop down list. This has the
same effect: reboot instead of going to sleep.

Is there a fix for these abnormal behaviours ?


Thanks


Marc

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] keyboard in the login window

[Marc Lobelle]

Hi Michal,

Thanks, this worked, with be instead of cz, the default login keyboard is now 
be.

This way of defaulting the login keyboard to the one selected at install time 
should be added in the openindiana install process.

Thanks again and best regards

Anyway, adding following line to "[Seat:*]" section of

  greeter-setup-script=/usr/bin/setxkbmap cz

Alter to match your needs and restart the system, or, at least the lightdm

You are right. I had not noticed this. It works fine thanks. Can you

Hi Marc,

did you do full update of image? E.G:
:; pfexec pkg refresh --full

This is not enough!
What he needs to do is:
1. update the whole system: pfexec pkg update -v
2. reboot: pfexec init 6
3. pfexec pkg install gimp

You can only install packages as long as the repository hasn't changed.
For OI Hipster this is typically a short time because it is a roling
release.
In order to be able to install a package your system needs to be up-to-date.


And then install?

I have it here, installed w/o problems:

Also, seems that installation of gimp on your machine is prevented by
consolidation/userland/userland-incorporation package (absent on my
system, not sure if I did removed it or it is normal that it is missing).

There is a reason that you are not recommended to do what you did if you
are not sure about the consequences!
When removing to metapackages you'll remove consistency checks from the
system.

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] mounting the root pool of another system.

[Marc Lobelle]

Hello again again

I tried readonly,

# zpool import -f -o readonly=on 10026772664028219320 rpool_2
cannot mount '/export': directory is not empty
cannot mount '/export/home': directory is not empty
cannot mount '/export/home/ml': directory is not empty
cannot mount '/export/home/ml/vault': directory is not empty

Is there a way to tell zpool to mount somewhere else ?

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] mounting the root pool of another system.

[Marc Lobelle]

Hello again,

It worked almost by giving it another name

# zpool import -f 10026772664028219320 rpool_2
This pool uses the following feature(s) not supported by this system:
     com.delphix:spacemap_v2 (Space maps representing large segments are 
more efficient.)
All unsupported features are only required for writing to the pool.
The pool can be imported using '-o readonly=on'.
cannot import 'rpool' as 'rpool_2': unsupported version or feature

Indeed the host computer uses an older version of openindiana. Is there 
a workaround ?

Can I without risks upgrade the zfs of the host ? How ?

Thanks

[OpenIndiana-discuss] mounting the root pool of another system.

[Marc Lobelle]

Hello,

I started installing a fresh version on openindiana on a new SSD on my 
notebook but I had no time to finish installing all the programs I 
needed and I had to reinstall the old disk (running still solaris). Now 
I would like to finish the install  and rsync some directories of my old 
disk. Therefore my idea is to connect one of the disk on the usb and 
rsink it. The problem is that the two disks have the same name: rpool. I 
tried (on another system running openindiana) importing a rool by giving 
its id rather than its name: it does not work

# zpool import -f 10026772664028219320
cannot import 'rpool': pool already exists

Is there a way to import the root file system of another computer ?


Thanks

[OpenIndiana-discuss] dual boot OI-hipster /windows 7

[Marc Lobelle]

Hello,

I'm currenly using Solaris 11 and Windows 7 on my notebook, but I would 
like to upgrade it to OI-hipster/Windows 7 on a larger SSD. Therefore I 
bought a new 1TB SSD, copied physically my current 480GB SSD on it, 
destroyed the solaris partition (which was the last one), expanded the 
windows partition to 250 GB.
Now I would like to install OI-hipster on the remaining 750 GB. I did 
similar things several times in the past but many things changed since 
that time (il paticular the OI bootloader etc.)
I did not find any recent explanation of the procedure on internet but I 
am sure. I'm not the first on this list needing to do that (we don't use 
windows by pleasure but there are some softwares that only run on that 
and sometimes we need them, and some hardware devices that are not 
supported by OI). So how should I do it ? Can one of you indicate me 
wher to find the info or how to do it ?

Thanks in advance

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] No GUI after upgrade yesterday

[Marc Lobelle]

Hi everybody,

Well Gary is the first, but he won't be the last. I planned to update my 
notebook from Solaris 11 to openindiana, and at the same time replacing 
the 480 GB SSD by a 1TB SSD (I have another notebook already running 
openindiana for a "long" time) and I need to be able to run Windows on 
these as well (not that I like it but there are programs that do not run 
on openindiana nor solaris).
I still do not understand why replacing grub and gnome, that did the job 
expected from them, by freebsd loader and mate, but OK, you do the job 
so you have the right to choose, but please explain how to switch to 
your new choices, and tell us what will change.

Thanks for the job of maintaining this distribution and best regards.

Marc

 From a live DVD/USB (beware of the keyboard layout) :

zpool import -f rpool
mkdir /tmp/a
[beadm list] if needed
beadm mount openindiana /tmp/a
* make the needed modifications on /tmp/a
beadm unmount openindiana
zpool export rpool

[OpenIndiana-discuss] mounting an existing system on a boot image

[Marc Lobelle]

Hello,

by doing a wrong chmod in /etc (I thought I was in another directory) I 
made /etc/init and thus /sbin/init not executable, so the system does 
not boot anymore even in single user.


Thus I booted a live image from a DVD and I would like to mount my root 
file sustem on this image in order to fix the permissions in /sbin and 
/usr/sbin


In old solaris versions, as far as I remember there was even a menu 
entry for this.


But I do not know how to do it now with zfs from the live image. I'm 
running the live image in gui mode.


Could somebody help me with this ?

Thanks

[OpenIndiana-discuss] surprising behaviour of mount

[Marc Lobelle]

Hello All,

Today I had a very curious message when trying to mount a file system on 
a non-empy directory


cannot mount '/export/home/ml/mydirname': directory is not empty

Afaik, mounting on a non empty directory has always been allowed: the 
original contents is just temporarily hidden.


mounting was done automatically as a byproduct of

zpool import -d /dev/lofi szpool

szpool had been created by

zpool create -m /export/home/ml/mydirname szpool /dev/lofi/1

Is there a good reason to prohibit mounting on a non-empty directory in 
this case ? Is there a way to avoid this constraint ?


Thanks

[OpenIndiana-discuss] printing problem

[Marc Lobelle]

Hello,


I have a printing problem.

If I print from libreoffice or evince, everything works fine, but if I 
try to print from any other tool, say gedit, firefox, thunderbird, the 
pages are printed in the top left quarter of the sheet. Images are just 
too small but texts are printed in a font too large for the interline 
space and thus not only too small but also unreadable.


A workaround is to print in a pdf file instead then open the file in 
evince and print from there.



I read somewhere that cups is now "pdf oriented" which could explain 
that only pdf files are printed properly, but is there a way to tell all 
other programs to send files in pdf format to cups now .



I have the same problem on openindiana and solaris 11.


Thanks for your help

[Marc Lobelle]

Hello Till,

On 26/11/17 22:53, Till Wegmüller wrote:

Hmm

I am affraid several Unix Machanisms block you here.

First mount was designed so that a filesystem that is in access can not
be unmounted. This so that an admin can not accidentally kill the system
with an umount. I am not aware of a filesystem based mechanism that
leaves the access once the file is written, AFAIK this is also true on
linux with DMcrypt. This kind of design only works with an file based
approach like GPG/PGP.

If you have a Zpool inside the Lofidevice you will have to deactivate it
and all process using it before closing the lofidev.

Indeed, this is the clean way to do it


Zpools can be imported and mounted during import/export they are
automatically mounted/unmounted.
I tried to do that but I did not find how to import a whole raidz2 of 
encrypted lofi files after exporting it


I tried to export it: that works but if I then type zpool import, I do 
not see it and if I try to reimport it? i get a message that it does not 
exist
If this can be done, the zpool could indeed be cleanly unmounted and 
later remounted
That would be equivalent to the encrypted zfs file systems on solaris 
that I use on other computers.

What do you think ?
Thanks

Marc

The In use limitation applies to both
aswell due to forementioned reason.

 From what i gather what you want you may want to look at the F.U.S.E
Options.

I have a bit of trouble figuring out your threat model. Could you
elaborate on what you want to defend against? This may allow people to
give you better advice.
I want the file system to be encrypted but to be able to mount it at 
will (giving the passphrase) when I need to use it or to unmount it when 
I do not need it.
Another question is: If the zpool is exported, can the lofidev be closed 
? If I destroy the zpool, I  can close the lofidev and later reopen them 
and rebuild the zpool but the contents is lost.


Marc

Hello,

I am trying to recompile a program called srm (available on

This program uses #if defined (__linux__) and  #if defined

and I should replace this code with something appropriate for
openindiana.
__linux__ etc are predifines preprocessor macros, presented in

https://sourceforge.net/p/predef/wiki/OperatingSystems/

However, I do not see openindiana in there, so what should I use ?


Note that if you're using ZFS (which is the default file system on
OpenIndiana) then
the overwriting which srm does will have no effect - the copy-on-write
mechanism
that ZFS uses for data integrity ensures that the "overwrite" will go
to a
different,
unused, part of the device. Therefore, srm won't do any good.

Hum, this means that bcrypt will not erase the original file after
encrypying it either and the file must be decrypted to be used. How can
I make sure that its contents cannot be recovered on zfs then ? (apart
from writing the zfs encryption code that is missing in illumos zfs ; it
will have to be done eventually but I'm looking for an interim
solution).

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] recompiling a program for openindiana

[Marc Lobelle]

Thanks Till,

 I like your ref [2]. I'll try something like that. It can be 
equivalent on the user side and privacy side to what I do on solaris 
with encrypted zfs, just a bit heavier. But the advantage is that the 
backups are encrypted too.


Best regards

Marc

You can use Lofi dev to encrypt the device below the filesystem Layer.

You can use a container Solution I.e A ZFS Volume that is encrypted with
lofidev and then has an UFS Partition inside. Somewhat like [2] but with
UFS rather than ZFS inside the Volume.

Or you could help review the Encryption code for upstreaming. It is
already written but in Process of upstreaming. I think it's [4] but you
will have to search from there further.

This doesn't work on ZFS, and just doesn't work in general even without
ZFS.  It's not uncommon that hardware itself remaps sectors, potentially
leaving sensitive data in place and inaccessible to software that just
goes through the file system layer, but relatively easily recoverable by
an attacker.

The better answer, assuming physical security is insufficient, is to
avoid writing sensitive information in the first place: encrypt the data
before writing or configure the file system itself to encrypt.
Yes, this is what I do on solaris where the encrypt option of zfs is 
implemented, but it is not yet available on openindiana, unfortunately.


Marc


A quick google search on "zfs secure delete" will turn up all sorts of
discussions about this.

The arn driver seems to support AR9285 which is supported by the same ath
driver as AR9287 in FreeBSD.
Nonetheless the corresponding PCI id is not listed in illumos, so it will
not attach.

Thanks Aurélien. is there a workaround this (without recompiling illumos)

Thanks ! Indeed, after installing openindiana's boost it worked. I had 
installed the other when I installed libreoffice
