I am sorry for the delay, for some time I was unable to build VirtualBox 
on two separate machines. Now it's fixed and VirtualBox 6.1 was 
integrated. Please test.

Yes, I can see the problem in Terminator. I even porter Terminator

unfortunately not very lively project these days and I don't see any 
prospect in filing bug upstream. I also did not found any other record 
of someone having this particular problem.


I am afraid we don't have any other tiling terminal at this moment...

The best what I can suggest is to set "When command exits" in 
Preferences -> Profiles -> Command to something else than "Exit the 
terminal". Not perfect but at least you'll get the command's output.


Still a backtrace will occur on stderr:

Hi Michal, all,

this was not only 'terminator' problem, but also 'tmux' one (running 
within 'terminator'): it also exits. I did small experiment in 
'mate-terminal' I have started 'tmux' session, and pane is also killed 
when trying to find out npm version!


This can be prevented in 'tmux' with following configuration directives 
(bind-keys 'R' and 'r' should be free, or use another letters):


bind-key R set-option remain-on-exit on
bind-key r respawn-pane

This is annoying too, since you have to respawn or kill pane...
Here example of use of 'tmux' directives:

---8<--
:; tmux set-option remain-on-exit on
:; npm --version
6.13.4


Pane is dead (signal 1, Tue Feb 11 10:15:41 2020)
---8<--


NOTE: 'screen' utility handles all OK, so tab is not exited on 'npm 
--version' call in either combination with terminal programs


Regards


Hi Predrag,

yes, I can see the same behavior in `tmux` when in Xterm. Strange, but 
at least we know it's not the Terminator terminal.

Hi Predrag,

all of these commands work for me both in local and global zone

Can you truss the command like this and upload the log somewhere?

Or maybe you will need to be more creative and run it like this:

   truss -o log2 sh -c 'npm --version'

Hi all,

nope. This is from GZ.

Yes, I can update system ...
BTW, I keep it up to date as possible, writing from:

* file is then compressed with xz


Hi, I don't know how to tackle this myself, so I filed a bug to illumos: 
https://www.illumos.org/issues/12286.


Can you run this again but this time take a note of the PID of the 
terminal, where you eventually start the `npm` command, first and then 
truss the `npm` command as before and send just the last 10 lines of the 
truss log.

The possible downside is a different set of software provided by 
OpenIndiana and OmniOS (OpenIndiana is a traditional distribution with 
large set of packages software, OmniOS tries to keep it's software stack 
small) and whether you need to interact between nodes of various types. 
If compute nodes are meant to be separated from the head node, it should 
work without a problem. OpenIndiana on compute will work too.

2018-02-09

Great thanks to developers of hipster .. that is pretty big jump to
survive with no serious problems.

Following the update I have not noticed any really major problems.

However I do see something quite odd in the virtual desktops of Mate

Icons inside the small desktop view on panel are sometimes nearly invisible.
Only represented by what looks like a line drawing of a box. That is a
hollow rectangle made of a dim dark gray line.

I have not divined yet what cause some to be plainly visible and other
not. It does not follow specific icons that is, the nearly invisble
happen sort of randomly.  although at least two seem to persist
What is mostly represented in them are icons of Vbox vms running on
VB version 6.0.14 installed by pkg tools.

It also happens to xterms, Mate-terminals, etc.

No indication of what the rectangle represents until clicked

Wondering if anyone else has noticed anything similar and further what
might be done to fix it.


Can you please attach a screenshot so I have a better idea of what is 
happening?

Newer OpenIndiana snapshots are expected to work in VirtualBox. If they

This is on Vbox as guest on an OI host

Following a full update, on reboot, something popped up about an icon
saying it needed attention and did I wan to delete it... I foolishly
clicked the delete to allow the startup to finish.

So, apparently the trouble was with the icons now missing.  Timeslider

Desktop is Mate.
How would I go about re-establish those icons?


Start `mate-session-properties` from terminal and make sure that 
"Network Auto-magic Manager applet" and "Time Slider notification

[OpenIndiana-discuss] Firefox user agent override for GitHub

Hi,

recently GitHub stopped supporting Firefox 60 ESR, making portions of 
the site unusable for our browser.


Before Firefox 68 ESR is available this is how you override the GitHub 
check:


Open about:config in Firefox, add "general.useragent.override" name of a 
string type, set it's value to "Mozilla/5.0 (X11; SunOS i86pc; rv:68.0) 
Gecko/20100101 Firefox/68.0".


Make sure you remove the override preference, when Firefox 68 ESR is 
available.

Since you have consolidation/userland/userland-incorporation in place, 
you should run `pkg update` and get the whole package after restart.

[OpenIndiana-discuss] Critical security issue in Firefox fixed (CVE-2019-17026)

[Michal Nowak via openindiana-discuss]

Folks,

you may have heard that zero-day vulnerability CVE-2019-17026 in Firefox 
was recently fixed by Mozilla in their mainline and 68 ESR streams.


Information about the CVE are scarce and the official information from 
Mozilla and distro vendors is "upgrade to Firefox 72.0.1 and Firefox ESR 
68.4.1", which is of no help for us, because we only deliver the old 
unsupported ESR version 60.


The information I gathered and the patch I identified are in 
https://github.com/OpenIndiana/oi-userland/pull/5470. If someone has 
knowledge in this area, can verify my reasoning or the patch in the PR, 
please do so.


In any case the fix is now merged and available from our repo as 
pkg://openindiana.org/web/browser/firefox@60.9.0,5.11-2019.0.0.1.


Please update Firefox soon.

Michal

I've tried booting the latest 1910 iso several times on vbox vm and
seems to be the slowest thing imaginable, its been running for 10

part of it visible.

I made 3 other attempts about a week ago and had the same long long
experience.

Is this just happening on my end or are others having a problem like this?


For me OI works reasonably well on OpenIndiana's VirtualBox.

Can you state the host's VirtualBox version and OS, host's CPU, VM's RAM 
assigned and storage type used?

Thanks Predrag for your testing, very much appreciated.

Sadly, I am afraid I don't know enough audio stuff to be of help with 
your mic issue...

Hi Espen, Michal, all.

Happy New year to all of you! I am looking forward for new stuff on OI...


Finally I have managed to test VB 6.1. After installing it into separate 
BE, rebooting, adding VBOX Additions, I have booted my win10 guest.


Seamless mode works as before (not perfect, but usable).
There is nothing else which makes guest to run worse then in VB 6.0.

I still have microphone problem in guest (work on OI - tested). That is 
probably consequence of some problems on host: pulseaudio "works", but 
volume applet cannot control it (also dow not show hardare device it 
uses). I am using NVIDIA driver 440 (not OI one - that also might cause 
some problems. BTW, tried to remove it and use OI one, but X server dies 
- another problem to solve)


With best regards.
Predrag Zečević

P.S. I have decided to keep VB 6.1 (maybe, if I have time, will try some 
linux guests with GUI and Audio):


:; pfexec pkg unset-pulisher userland
...
:; pfexec pkg set-publisher -O http://pkg.openindiana.org/hipster

I think it does not see the local package as an update because it's
from the 'userland' publisher, but the installed system/virtualbox

In a test BE, can you remove

Hi Michal,

Can someone who uses these features test that? Predrag? I am happy to

Hi Michal,

I am willing to test it. Give to me URL of VB package
Thanks. Regards


Hi Predrag,

you can find binary packages at ftp://openqa.oi.mnowak.cz/.

Install virtualbox_6.1_20191219.p5p on the host and restart. Then 
install virtualbox-additions_6.1_20191219.p5p to OpenIndiana VirtualBox VM.


You can install either package like this:

I don't see a checkbox in VM's Settings -> Display -> Acceleration.

Can someone who uses these features test that? Predrag? I am happy to

It's got to do with the two :

VBOX_OGLLIBS= VBoxOGL.so VBoxEGL.so

in the Makefile at the top of the tree.  VBoxOGL at least, I think needs 
to build, as it did in a previous version :

find doesn't find any VBoxEGL's anywhere :

I'm not clued up with how to drive patch, so I haven't included any

So I just pulled both of them out of the Makefile, now I see :

So that's way further down the rabbit hole than I can help with.  6.1.0 
is a pretty big release, I figure it's got more stuff in it that's 
changed than a few tweaks of the Makefile can handle.


Anyone?

I worked on VirtualBox 6.1 since it entered Beta stages. You can see my 
work at https://github.com/OpenIndiana/oi-userland/pull/5372. I concur 
that VBoxOGL.so and VBoxEGL.so are missing now. I removed them from the 
component, so it builds, but I am not sure about potential ramifications.


I think it has something to do with VBoxVGA 3D support removal? 
Quotations from the 6.1 changelog follow 
(https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Changelog):


- "Graphics: New style 3D support (with VBoxSVGA and VMSVGA) remains, 
old style 3D support (with VBoxVGA) has been completely removed".

- "Graphics: Remove 3D support for VBoxVGA (old one deprecated with 6.0)"

I don't see a checkbox in VM's Settings -> Display -> Acceleration.

Can't get sound from the VM (Audio: PulseAudio & ICH AC97 & Enable Audio

Carl, can you build VirtualBox 6.1 from my branch and see any of the 
above works for you?

I think, recent laptops are problematic with OpenIndiana. With this 
particular model I think the "Intel® UHD Graphics" is likely the biggest 
blocker as it will run in VESA-only mode. Camera, Bluetooth, card 
reader, and video ports won't work. Ethernet not clear as the chip is 
not described at https://system76.com/laptops/galago. With other laptops 
like Lenovo P52 and HP ProBook 450 G4 I had problems with booting and ACPI.

2019.10 supports native ZFS encryption, though I don't think that boot 
from encrypted volume is implemented and I am fairly certain that such a 
feature is not implemented in our installer (though, one might possibly 
achieve that manually, I doubt it will work at the moment). Currently, I

Can you use Virtualbox? If so you could boot the ISO as a VM and use USB

Does that actually work, Till?

Since OI switched to VirtualBox OSE and started packaging our own VB, I
haven't been able to get USB pass-through to work.  Others have reported
the same problem, I know there is (was?) a ticket about the issue in the
bug tracker.

Unless it has been fixed recently, and I'm just out of the loop...

USB pass-through does not work on OpenIndiana VirtualBox. (And we don't 
even know, why it does not work...) But, presumably, it works on other 
supported hosts (Linux, Windows, ...) and for the `dd` operation does 
not even need OpenIndiana guest, any UNIX guest should suffice.

Probably a bug, but I'm not certain where.  I don't have an R710 with
full iDRAC that I could test with, but I will say that I've had boot
issues with some non-OI ISOs when going through the iDRAC virtual media
interface.

Is it possible for you to try the same ISO on physical media, and can
you verify the checksum on the ISO matches the published checksum?  I'm
obviously just trying to rule out any possible download corruption that
might be triggered on physical hardware.


Checksums match.

I converted OI-hipster-gui-20190511.iso to image and then copied that to USB (using 
instructions at 
https://blog.tinned-software.net/create-bootable-usb-stick-from-iso-in-mac-os-x/ 
).
 Boot gets further then:

…

Enter user name for system maintenance (control-d to bypass):


OI-hipster-gui-20190511.usb works.

I’ll have to dig around and see if I can find a blank DVD to burn the ISO onto.


I am not sure I understand. Are you trying to use the ISO medium as a 
basis for some virtual USB boot device? That likely won't work the same 
way it does with many Linux ISO images, our images are not hybrid. .iso 
is for CD, .usb for flash disk.

It says that it sees the VirtualBox update but can't install it due to

Can you first update your system (the latest

Hi,

Currently we ship the version 340 of nvidia Solaris driver, which

However, newer devices are not supported in this driver version.

You can get the type of graphics card with `nvidia-settings` or in
/var/log/Xorg.0.log file.

The other, proper solution is to have a way to switch between driver
versions but work on this stalled some time ago.

Thanks,

Thanks everyone for your input. It's valuable for us to get forward.

Below you can see my findings wrt support of reported cards in the more

recent v390 nvidia driver. Except for three cards reported couple of
years ago in the Wiki (they originally launched a decade ago) all
reported cards are supported in the v390 driver. For Quadro cards I
checked the Solaris driver readme, for GeForce ones I looked into the
Linux driver readme. (Thanks Alan!)

Given that almost all cards in the recent use by OpenIndiana users are
supported in the newer driver and that some of you moved to the newer
version on their own, I am tempted to update the driver to v390.
(Though, there may be other considerations.)

If someone is convinced, that their card is not supported in the v390
driver - contrary to my findings - let me know.

Michal

Though, there may be other considerations


Just grasping this straw: perhaps un-stall those works on switchable drivers?

The PR https://github.com/OpenIndiana/oi-userland/pull/3673 that I proposed a few 
years back worked well for the switcheroo part AFAIK, and the idea and 
implementation is extensible enough to support an arbitrary amount of nvidia 
driver-familyNumber packages served and installed, and would not contradict 
picking a new default one of those (340 => 390 for majority? No problem!)

I could not test it further as the optimus setup in my HP Zbook G3 did not give 
me real graphics in neither of the nvidia drivers, nor in different intels, nor 
with vesa (that one at least gave me a black screen mode change, and an Xorg 
log of an apparently started login program). I am sadly not aware if anyone 
else played with that PR's code with a working graphics HW arrangement.

I would still welcome any brave people to try that out :)

Just check out current oi-userland, merge my source branch, probably point to current driver 
revisions for the numbered families (last touched this a couple of years ago...), and make your 
local repo packages, and install into a new BE clone for testing. Notably, IIRC this redefines what 
the "nvidia" named package is (from driver to "dispatcher").

I am currently AFK but might bring the versions bit into shape in a few days, 
if anyone wants...


Sure, your PR is far more advanced than a simple driver version update I 
propose. I am sure we are interested in you updating the 3673 PR.


The problem with updating nvidia driver for me is

This doesn't seem to be related to the graphics type. Both, png and

A large portion (most!) of the linkage dependencies are due to 
ImageMagick and it seems likely that ImageMagick is used to read PNG and

Richard's right, Emacs can't find the CA certificates bundle. This

I can't see the libgcc_s.so problem:

Can you `pkg verify` emacs packages?

Hi Michal.

We know that setting the disable_smap fixes the crash part.

I guess the part I don't understand is why some systems don't need to 
disable smap. It concerns me that there is something wrong.


thanks,

Geoff


I don't know, but one possibility is that folks run OpenIndiana on older 
systems where SMAP is not available, or do not run VirtualBox.


For example according to `cpuid` utility my Lenovo 230 laptop with Ivy 
Bridge gen CPU does not have SMAP (Supervisor Mode Access Prevention), 
only SMEP (Supervisor Mode Execution Protection) and I run VirtualBox 
without problems.


Can someone who runs VirtualBox on Broadwell or newer CPU check `cpuid`, 
if they have SMAP?


If there's something wrong it's likely something in the VirtualBox 
kernel code trying to access memory the SMAP-aware kernel does not want 
it to have.


I found a VirtualBox bug report on this topic but no response from 
VirtualBox devs for more than a year: 
https://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/17958. Even Oracle acknowledges this 
problem with Solaris 11.4: 
https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E37838_01/html/E60973/appcompat.html#SERNSgtaji. 
Their workaround is to disable SMAP.


In the ticket 17958 I mention other SMAP fixes for Linux and macOS, 
someone motivated enough might want to go thru them and have a look if 
they are applicable to Solaris kernel code as well. Fixes went 4 years 
ago to VirtualBox 5.0.2 and 5.0.4: 
https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Changelog-5.0.

Hi,

did you install the virtualbox-additions package on the host? It is 
meant only for VirtualBox guests.

Done, and yes, this is the physical machine that is the host.

Now the kernel module not showing up warning has gone away, but it still 
crashes the server when I start a guest VM.




If it crashes, can you gather more information from the crash dump? How 
to do it is described here:

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

Hi,

hmm, perhaps I was mistaken as I don't see a way to have a keyboard 
switcher there. Perhaps what I recall is a locale switcher.


Anyway, adding following line to "[Seat:*]" section of 
/etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf file sets my keyboard to Czech in LightDM 
(though not in Mate as I have another layout there):


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

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

in /etc/lightdm/lightdm-gtk-greeter.conf you should be able to setup

uname -a

svcs -a | grep -i virtualbox

svcs -xv

Where do you see the "VBoxClient: the VirtualBox kernel service is not 
running. Exiting" error message? In the VirtualBox interface?


What is your CPU? Either `ddu` or `prtconf -v` will tell you. E.g.:

cpu, instance #0
...
name='brand-string' type=string items=1
value='Intel(r) Core(tm) i5-3320M CPU @ 2.60GHz'

Did VirtualBox worked on any other platform for this CPU?

Make sure you are running the latest bits by `pkg update -v`.

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

[Michal Nowak]

Marc,

in /etc/lightdm/lightdm-gtk-greeter.conf you should be able to setup 
"~language" indicator in the [greeter] section. Then you pick the 
keyboard layout. And hopefully it persists :). I have it disabled but 
for sure I have seen it working in the time of the 2019.04 snapshot release.

Hello,

I recently installed openindiana 2019.04, which runs fine except one
detail: when the graphical interface starts and displays a small window
where to type the login and passwd, I must type this login and password
assuming that the keyboard layout is US. However as soon as I am logged
in, the keyboard is considered as BE (which is what I want:the PC has a
belgian keyboard layout.

On older versions of openindiana and on solaris 11, I did not have this
problem.

Does one of you know how to tell this graphical login program to use the
BE keyboard layout ?

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] Time-Slider minor issues

[Michal Nowak]

Also check ~/.xsession-errors if there's anything of interest (except 
for GTK warnings).


The persistent Time Slider icon in the notification area is being 
started by /etc/xdg/autostart/time-slider-notify.desktop. Check if you 
are able to start the icon in terminal via `/usr/lib/time-slider-notify` 
command.

Hello!

b) Bug #11821 <https://www.illumos.org/issues/11821>  for the resize issue.

a) When starting time-slider-setup from the menu, the smal 'button' in 
the panel appears, and whirl is whirling on mouse-over.

Some seconds after that this disappears silently.
There is nothing in Xorg.0.log, /var/adm/messages or var/log/syslog

There should be the popup from gksudo or gksu immediately..

When i start it via the "control center", the same issue.

I copied the desktop file from the menu entry to my desktop, and the 
same issue is there, so here's is the bug somwhere:


#!/usr/bin/env xdg-open
[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Name=Time Slider
Comment=Configure the system to take automatic snapshots of your data
Terminal=false
Type=Application
StartupNotify=true
Exec=time-slider-setup
Icon=time-slider-setup
Categories=Application;System;Settings

i did find
/usr/share/applications/time-slider.desktop
which lacks the first line.

Yes, it works when i start it via command line whithin a MATE-terminal 
shell,

but NOT via ALT-F2.

maybe i've tweaked the default shell somewhere in the past?

~$ echo $0
bash

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] Survey: What nvidia card you use?

[Michal Nowak]

I created a pull request with the update to version 390 and changing the 
version 340 driver so it can be used (with some hassle) should someone 
need it:
https://github.com/OpenIndiana/oi-userland/pull/5337. Though, I am not 
sure the latter works...


If someone is willing to test, I am happy to provide packages for local 
installation.

All later ones have Intel Graphics (Or AMD) in the SoC as intel
successfully pushed everybody out of the market.

Laptops with Nvidia graphics Only after 2008 are rare Gaming Market
devices. With at least a 2000 Euro price tag. Considering our absolute
null compatibility with games atm (Although i've just heard of a

My conclusion still stays firmly with upgrading to 390 by default. And
add instructions as Stefan described.

The older Laptops have legacy boot and a VESA desktop or at least a
working console.
So along with a wiki article describing how to enable a 340 version the
user has a very good chance to get a good working X desktop.

What is the newest possible supported card by 340 that is not supported
by 390? If it is older than 4 years then I definetly vote for exchange.


Intuitively, I have no idea as it's a very long time since I had nvidia 
GPU (and the list is too long to investigate manually).


If someone knows, I'd appreciate sharing it.

You can get the type of graphics card with `nvidia-settings` or in

The other, proper solution is to have a way to switch between driver

Thanks everyone for your input. It's valuable for us to get forward.

Below you can see my findings wrt support of reported cards in the more
recent v390 nvidia driver. Except for three cards reported couple of
years ago in the Wiki (they originally launched a decade ago) all
reported cards are supported in the v390 driver. For Quadro cards I
checked the Solaris driver readme, for GeForce ones I looked into the
Linux driver readme. (Thanks Alan!)

Given that almost all cards in the recent use by OpenIndiana users are
supported in the newer driver and that some of you moved to the newer
version on their own, I am tempted to update the driver to v390.
(Though, there may be other considerations.)

If someone is convinced, that their card is not supported in the v390
driver - contrary to my findings - let me know.

I believe that in the past the strategy was to set AUDIODEV=/dev/sound/1

I want to note that during this Live installation, there is a missing driver 
according to the DDU:
Intel Corporation 8 Serices HECI #0 UNK


This should not be of a concern as this is a controller talking to Intel 
ME (Management Engine).




Also, the installation results have been inconsistent. I had to try the text 
installer twice, because the first time there was an error:
nwadm: start_dhcp: ipadm_create_addr failed…

Also, the Live installer has been inconsistent. The first time installed, as I 
said above, but the second try ended with the screen going black, the computer 
hung, and the keyboard unusable. I’m going to try the Live one again, and then 
I’ll try your latest Text USB installer next.


That's very odd indeed. I can only suggest to update to the latest 
BIOS/firmware.

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] Updated Intel network driver

I rebuild Text images at ftp://openqa.oi.mnowak.cz, now they should have 
the driver.

Ooops, no.  It is there since October 2017, introduced by this:
https://www.illumos.org/issues/8664

But still, it is there long enough so it should work on recent OI 
hipster.

that has the Intel X557 NIC in it.

The latest snapshot doesn't support it.

How do I get the latest Intel driver working on OI?


Either the chipset is so recent that it requires a driver update so we
should ask Robert Mustacchi from Joyent if he's already worked on it, 
or it

is maybe just a matter of adding a missing pci id.

It shows up on omnios as an i40e.  So maybe I just need to add the pci 
id for it?

This is what is showing on Omnios.

I think you should reach out to OmniOS CE folks and ask if they have 
i40e changes on top of illumos-gate, from a quick look I did not find 
any, though there were changes in the gate to i40e driver post hipster 
2019.04 snapshot release.


I built following OI images yesterday, you may be more lucky with them:

Hello,

I’m trying this for the first time on an early-model Intel NUC. I
configured the hardware for legacy boot (not UEFI). The live system

Starting the installer (text or graphical), I configure the install
and then start it. At about 16-18% through a “cpio check” (something
like that), the screen goes blank and the system reboots.

Is there a known fix for this? What can I do to obtain more
troubleshooting information? I trying tailing the syslog and nothing
came out.

Thank you.==Leonard Sitongia


Leonard,

can you be more precise on the NUC model? How much RAM the system has?

When the system crashes like that, on the next boot you can retrieve 
crash info, but since this is a Live medium, every information was lost.


Can you install from Text Install USB medium? If you do there's path 
forward to the desktop by updating the installed system and then 
installing the "mate_install" meta package (and then removing it).


Yesterday I built OpenIndiana snapshot media, you may want to try these 
instead: ftp://openqa.oi.mnowak.cz/. They have all the latest illumos 
and userland packages.

Hi Tim,


Hi Michal!  Thanks much for the response and the info you provided.


I know I've seen a link somewhere about loading updated or additional
drivers, but I can't find it now.? Is there a way to load updated 
drivers

that the LiveCD or GUI installer can use?? Pointer to the docs
appreciated.


I am afraid that's not possible. There were two attempts to deliver 
multiple nvidia drivers and mediate them so users can switch, but they 
stalled 2 years ago:


https://github.com/OpenIndiana/oi-userland/pull/3458/
https://github.com/OpenIndiana/oi-userland/pull/3673/

The tricky thing is that v340 supports all the old devices 
https://www.nvidia.com/Download/driverResults.aspx/135163/en-us and I 
am not sure we can update it to v390 or newer which supports these new 
cards.


Unless we have a reasonable driver mediation I am afraid we are stuck 
with v340 and users have to install newer version manually...


Ok, that's more or less what I suspected, but I appreciate the 
confirmation.



Is there something special that needs to be done to install OI onto an
NVMe drive?


It should work. nvme driver should be in the install medium. If you
still have access to the HW, you can check that the nvme package is
present in the medium and that the driver was loaded via modinfo. Could
you report this to the illumos developer mailing list?


Unfortunately I don't have access to the hardware any longer.  I had it
for about a week, but my coworker needed it back to begin using it.

New Dell workstations are coming with either more security or more
restrictions (depending on how you look at it) in the "BIOS".  I'm
guessing the problem seeing the NVMe drive wasn't so much a driver issue
as one of the many features that could not be overridden when I switched
the system from UEFI to Legacy BIOS.


As of recently I have Lenovo ThinkPad P52 with the very same nvidia GPU, 
also with NVMe. So far I was unable to even boot OpenIndiana from USB, 
but I tried for only like 10 minutes or so.  Over the weekend I may try 
harder and see more closely what the situation is.

If I switch to the Text installer and boot from USB, that gets farther,
but the installer doesn't see the NVMe drive as a valid install target.  It
recognizes the 2nd disk, which is a traditional spinning disk.

I used the mdb commands from

 https://www.illumos.org/issues/2665

e.g.

 echo "::walk sd_state | ::grep '.!=0' | ::print struct sd_lun un_sd 
| ::print struct \\
  scsi_device sd_inq | ::print struct scsi_inquiry inq_vid inq_pid" | 
mdb -k


to print out inquiry info, but the NVMe drive apparently doesn't get
classified as "sd".

Hi,

with such a resolution I think only nvidia GPUs with Solaris driver may 
handle that. Pick some recent driver version at 
https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/drivers/unix/solaris-display-archive/ and 
at "Supported products" tab pick whatever you find suitable. But there 
not guarantees that the Solaris driver will work (though it usually does).

thanks for volunteering!

I uploaded the archive to the PR description:

Then the .p5p archive should be installed like this:

$ pkg publisher

userland   (non-sticky) origin   online F

pkg://userland/print/filter/hplip@3.19.8-2019.0.0.0:20190829T102109Z


When the installation succeeds, remove the publisher:

$ pfexec pkg set-publisher -G

Restart the system.

I need just the basics, that a HP printer prints with updated hplip, 
if you have more printer, try them all, please. If you can also scan, 
that's a great to too (note that we recently updated sane-backends to

Is there a reason you use the old Firefox 60.6.3 version? Would you mind 
updating you installation to the latest hipster code, please?

Thanks, Stephan, appreciate your help.

For the record, can you state types of these two printers and the

Scan fails, but this looks just like the previous versions.

The scanner probe is ok:

Might be worth reporting to https://gitlab.com/sane-project/backends/issues.

If you are able to identify the fix I am happy to integrate it to libusb-1.

In regard to: Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] pkg update is failing,

In fact it tries to do this -
https://github.com/OpenIndiana/pkg5/commit/d3187bbf6614769114482c8823a6b1adae05ea3a 



Those changes are what I was thinking pkg should be doing, so you've
anticipated and already fixed the issue.

When someone does a 'pkg update', does pkg update itself *first* and then
continue with the remaining packages, or does the 'pkg update' run the
entire update using the (possibly outdated) version of pkg from the
running boot environment?


I don't think re-spawn is implemented. I've seen it in openSUSE via 
`zypper patch` but one was bound to execute the command twice manually, 
first zypper et al. were updated, then the rest.




I'm just wondering if the people that had problems because of locale
settings were getting the behavior from a pkg that was prior to your
improvement.


The old Python2-based pkg certainly was able to install the non-ASCII 
file name and in the same vein it should be able to remove it. The 
Python3-based pkg is unable to cope with non-ASCII file names, but 
that's not a problem for those updating now as they will get system 
without non-ASCII file names (I checked we distributed only two such 
file names and I removed them from the ca-certificates package from 
which bot came from).


I think there are two vectors where things break: (1) Someone is using 
non-UTF-8 locale, (2) someone updated pkg when non-ASCII file names were 
still being distributed. In both cases manual intervention may be 
required :(, if only setting UTF-8 locale and, respectively, rolling 
back to BE before Python3-based pkg and updating from there.


Sorry for not catching this soon enough.

I have several machines running vbox without issue.  The only thing I

Any other thoughts?



That looks like the crashes we see on Solaris when SMAP is enabled on 
a CPU
new enough to support it.  The VirtualBox drivers try to access memory 
that

SMAP blocks access to from kernel space.

https://wiki.openindiana.org/oi/7.2+VirtualBox suggests "Workaround is 
to put:

set disable_smap=1 in /etc/system and reboot, before starting VirtualBox"



Hi Alan.

I tried the smap disable, doesn't seem to make a difference.

As well, I was told from the omnios list you don't need to disable smap 
when using the vbox builds from omnios/OI.  They now work without having 
to disable it.


thanks,

Geoff


If the system was ever "tainted" by the upstream binary VirtualBox 
packages, it might be actually easier to reinstall the system anew and 
see if the problem persists - as others were suggesting, it should not.

[OpenIndiana-discuss] Help test hplip with libusb-1

[Michal Nowak]

https://github.com/OpenIndiana/oi-userland/pull/5275

Is anyone interested in testing an updated hplip package linked against 
libusb-1? It requires HP printer supported by the hplip package.


The thing is that hplip was linked against an old unmaintained libusb 
package and I think we should use the maintained libusb-1 package instead.

That's good even if you run Firefox and a lot of additional stuff at the 
same time. But we need more information about it.


Does it happen with some particular web page? Is there anything in 
`dmesg` or ~/.xsession-errors around the time of the crash? Can you do 
after crash to see the back trace?


$ mdb ~/core

Does disabling HW acceleration and seting context processes to 1 in

How much swap space and RAM do you have?  Firefox requires a lot of swap 
space now.

I have 16G of RAM and 32G of swap. The other trick is to lower "Content

Hi All,

I am working my way more an more into the illumos based distros like
SmartOS, OmniOS, and OpenIndiana.

While still trying to get a good feel for each to see how they are best
used, I started to think about connection protocols.

I know that you can connect to VM's running on SmartOS via VNC, but would
like to know if OpenIndiana can also run NX (NoMachine), rdesktop (RDP) or
FreeRDP clients?

In particular, I am interested in know if it can run RDP clients as I think
that they offer a lot of potential over VNC.

Cheers and have a good weekend,
Lonnie


We have fairly recent rdesktop and soon FreeRDP but I am not aware of 
any RDP server, like xrdp, in our distribution, nor NX.

[OpenIndiana-discuss] splix - drivers for SPL printers

[Michal Nowak]

We just merged print/splix component for printers which use the SPL 
printing language (mostly Samsung, but also some Xerox).


See http://splix.ap2c.org/ for more info and list of supported printers.

As usual, you can setup the printer via system-config-printer, the 
printer and SPL driver should be detected automatically.


I tested this with Samsung SCX 3205 laser printer with good results.

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] SunRay on OI/Hipster

[Michal Nowak]

Hi,

I believe it is possible to run OpenIndiana on SunRay but not a stock OI 
unfortunately. I suggest you go thru 
https://www.illumos.org/issues/11040. It seems that packages like GDM 
which were deprecated by LightDM are needed. Going thru the mailing list 
archive seems a good idea too: 
https://openindiana.org/pipermail/openindiana-discuss/.

Hi everyone,

we used to run our SunRays on Solaris 10, back in the day, and then moved
to Centos in order to get access to updated desktop apps (firefox, chrome,
wine, xrdp mostly).

We obviously now have issues in that the gtk+ on Centos is ancient and
causes the latest Firefox to crash for some windows (print, "save as" ...).

I'd really like to move back to running them in the Solaris/OI world.

Do you know if it is still possible to run the SunRays on the latest
version of OI/Hipster, and if so does anyone have a guide/walkthrough?

Thanks

That's right, though, shortly after that axg driver was made available.

[OpenIndiana-discuss] Looking for Ethernet dongle

[Michal Nowak]

Hi,

does anyone have an Ethernet USB dongle which works under OpenIndiana?

I have Asix AX88772B and Asix AX88772A both USB 2.0 FastEthernet 
dongles, but the former one is not supported and the latter one works 
fairly poorly (frame errors, header checksum errors, explodes in xHCI 
port, crashes after 1 day of uptime, ...).


Ideally it's USB 3 Gigabit Ethernet, but USB 2 FastEthernet is just fine.

I can use whatever driver is in illumos or grab one	 from 
http://freenicdrivers.la.coocan.jp/.

After your email, I tried to pick a specific version of osnet-incorporation - 
there are many that are published.  Tried the lowest index that was claimed to

pfexec pkg update

That resulted in many rejects for various version incompatibilities.

How do I do the update you have in mind?

[OpenIndiana-discuss] VirtualBox 6.0.10 and it's extensions

[Michal Nowak]

Recently, VirtualBox was updated to 6.0.10 and so was it's VNC extension.

Make sure the expected version is in VirtualBox' Settings->Extension.

If not run following command as root to fix it:

VBoxManage extpack install --replace 
/opt/VirtualBox/ExtensionPacks/VNC-6.0.10.vbox-extpack


If you need to update the Oracle extension, do so via "File->Check for 
updates" in VirtualBox (do this operation as root as well).

Not zstd but pkg://userland/system/extended-system-utilities is your

Disable the userland publisher and retry.

Subject: [developer] OpenSSH GSS-API key exchange support

I'm in the process of upgrading openssh in OmniOS to version 8.0p1 and one
of the current patches that we carry is the addition of support for
GSS-API key exchange. This patch is going to take quite a bit of work to
carry forward so I'm considering dropping it, which gets us even closer to
just tracking upstream openssh.

The question is, does anyone rely on or even use this feature?
(and if you do, could you help test 8.0p1?)

Thanks,

Andy

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] Question about compiling openindiana-userland components

Hi Folks!
    I've been tasked to do a test of a PR to rdesktop for oi-userland.

    This is for my report on 
https://www.illumos.org/issues/10691#change-25406


    I've managed to do a clone of oi-userland: git clone 
https://github.com/OpenIndiana/oi-userland.git

    And setup the environment: cd   components ; gmake setup
    Then I try building rdesktop as-is: cd desktop/rdesktop ; gmake publish

    And this works fine, I  get a fresh compiled version of 1.8.3post

    Then, I'm told to apply the PR in 
https://github.com/OpenIndiana/oi-userland/pull/5025.


    When I try to ask "how", I get a hint on trying 
https://patch-diff.githubusercontent.com/raw/OpenIndiana/oi-userland/pull/5025.patch 
and rebuild


    I download this .patch file and put it in 
components/esktop/rdesktop/patches directory, and tries to rebuild.

    And it stops with a prompt saying "File to patch: "


  like this:
gmake publish
/usr/gnu/bin/patch -d 
/export/home/esm/utv/OI/oi-userland/components/desktop/rdesktop/rdesktop-1f13bf5c5e86cbc99a6f0492fcdcd38cf0da2105 
--strip=1 --backup --version-control=numbered < patches/5025.patch

can't find file to patch at input line 18
Perhaps you used the wrong -p or --strip option?

File to patch:


I'll guess I'm doing something really stupid... can someone give me a 
hint on how to deply this PR (patch) onm the rdekstop component. As you 
sure understand, I'm not a developer..






I am sorry for the short-circuited suggestion, I thought patching things 
in-place will be the most straightforward thing for you to do. Just for 
the record, the patch was meant to be placed in the component's 
directory and applied like this:


  $ gpatch -p4 < ./5025.patch

But I understand you found a better way to do it. That's great. Looking 
forward to your testing results! Make sure to state, what you tested and 
what host version was used (Windows version etc.).


Thanks,
Michal
