Re: [osol-discuss] unable to mount volume [usb drives won't mount]

2010-08-27 Thread Jürgen Keil
 fstype gives unknown fs_type

Hmm, fstyp should work, too.
Did you use the block device, /dev/dsk/... ?


 also, here's the lshal with all the entires
 pertaining to this usbstick
 there is 'volume' entry

  volume.label = 'USB4G'  (string)
...
  volume.fstype = 'pcfs'  (string)

Hal seems to have no problem finding the
correct volume label, and file system type.

2010-08-27 Thread Ginn Chen
madvise is not available if _XPG4_2 is defined, g++ on Solaris will define 
_XPG4_2.
Use posix_madvise instead, or you can declare it in your program.

Re: [osol-discuss] Phenom II X6 1090T, AMD 890FX / SB850, Any Driver Development Efforts?

2010-08-27 Thread ken mays
Hi Dusan,

The answer is yes - it'll work. A few of our developers (and myself) run 
AMD/ATI hardware (i.e. state-of-the-art and legacy) in which the AMD 
motherboard-based chipsets are compatible.

Even at the graphics level, I've gotten the ATI Radeon HD 4870/4890 and 5970 
graphics cards to work. I suggest the Nvidia GPU-based graphic cards  since the 
commercial video driver is maintained by Oracle/Nvidia.

Much of this info I've posted in the HCL and validated with Sun (Oracle).

 Development Efforts?
 To: opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
 Date: Thursday, August 26, 2010, 9:12 PM
 I was a very satisfied
 OpenSolaris/ZFS padawan until the Shadows of the Dark Empire
 covered our Sun in march.
 
 During these dark times the continuous disturbances in the
 Source without doubt caused my very Source-sensitive
 motherboard to completely give up its hope and spirit.
 
 To support the struggle against expanding Source
 imperialism I first and foremost have to get back hold of my
 ZFS data which are tied to the latest zpool and zfs version
 supported in the final development release 134 (i.e. zpool
 version 22 and zfs version 4).
 
 I would like to employ the newest AMD chipset and CPU,
 i.e.:
   Phenom II X6 1090T
   AMD 890FX / SB850
 
 on the currently only board I know of with ECC memory
 support
   Asus Crosshair IV Formula
 
 At the end of april, Joe Kotran already queried these
 forums about OpenSolaris compatibility but no answer has
 been given yet and neither the HCL provides any usable
 information:
 
   https://www.opensolaris.org/jive/thread.jspa?messageID=477897
 
 I strongly believe the first symptom of OS death is lacking
 support for even essential new hardware like CPU/chipsets
 from the main vendors.
 
 And although I really fell in love with Solaris and would
 prefer it anytime over Linux or any other Operating System I
 can not afford being forced into running on old hardware due
 to lack of any information whether compatibility with recent
 hardware exists or is at least being worked on.
 
 
 Can therefore someone please enlighten me whether the
 aforementioned CPU, chipset and other mobo hardware are
 supported by 134 or any available version of OpenSolaris or
 OpenSolaris based distribution and whether any other
 distribution than OpenSolaris itself provides support for
 zpool version 22 and zfs version 4 and a migration path from
 OpenSolaris?
 
 
 It's pretty hard to believe that nobody in the last 4
 months since their launch was able to at least try to boot
 134 or some newer builds on AMDs newest CPU and chipset to
 see whether there are some issues or total lack of
 compatibility.
 
 If compatibility is still missing, is anyone at all working
 on adding it and can they provide some ETA?
 
 Are any Illumos, Nexenta, Shillix or Belenix project
 participants involved in developing hardware support,
 serious testing and updating of the HCL for common hardware
 at least or are we all still dependent on the whims of
 Oracle?

Hi Mark,

Thank you!

But I find that this command,  ipadm create-addr, only works for new 
interfaces. For those interfaces plumbed up by default, it does not work. How

The license change was being performed by Red Hat and the problem was that they 
were unsure they actually had formal permission to proceed but by the time they 
asked for clarification the Oracle takeover meant there was a freeze on working 
on such things.  So as far as I am concerned the licence change was approved 
Feb 2009, and what's now happened is it has been reconfirmed to red hat's 
satisfaction by Oracle.

 Excellent observation Rob. Each good intentioned opinion is
 worth to be heard no matter weather they come from developersor from
 spectators.

The way I remember it ... assisted by the fact that it's all written right
here ...

* Uros, you suggested a name for an OS.
* Alan said the existing forks already have names, and are named by people
who work on them, not people just talking about it idly on the mailing list.
* For no apparent reason, Uros, you ridiculed Alan because he didn't name
any OS at oracle.
* Alan said he works on distros that were already named by people who worked
on them before.  Not by people just spectating on the mailing list.

Nobody told you to keep your opinions silent.  You're not being repressed.
If anything, Alan's point encourages you to have *more* involvement with the
OS of your choice, because then you have more influence over the name of it.

Your message seems to indicate you think you are persecuted or oppressed.
You're way off base.  I suggest strengthening your emotional armor, so you
don't feel personally attacked when people are just talking about opinions
that happen to be different from yours.
