Thomas Pkgsrc short version From DFWiki If you still have ports installed you might wanna move them out of the way. /usr/local /usr/X11R6 /var/db/pkg To make cvs work sanely, add this to your ~/.cvsrc files: cvs -z4 -q diff -u -p -N update -dP checkout -P In the default pkgsrc will have its makefiles under /usr/pksrc and install to /usr/pkg and its DB of installed packages in /var/db/pkg, pkgsrc-wip makefiles are under /usr/pkgsrc/wip. Fetch a snapshot of pkgsrc (ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/packages/pkgsrc-current.tar.gz) and pkgsrc-wip (http://pkgsrc-wip.sourceforge.net/snapshots/) (wip = work in progress). Unpack them: cd /usr bsdtar xf .../pkgsrc.tar.gz cd pkgsrc cvs up bsdtar xf .../pkgsrc-wiptar.gz cd wip cvs up Bootstrap pkgsrc: cd /usr/pkgsrc/bootstrap ./bootstrap mkdir /usr/pkg/etc cp work/mk.conf.example /usr/pkg/etc/mk.conf Add /usr/pkg/bin and maybe /usr/pkg/sbin to your $PATH or symlink /usr/local /usr/pkg: cd /usr ln -sf pkg local Install pkgmanager: cd /usr/pkgsrc/wip/pkgmanager bmake install

If I omit any of these steps (with the occasional excpetion of the first one) the card just times out trying to get a DCHP response. I'm guessing the cardbus isn't initializing right and switching the slots makes something happen which fixes something, but I have no proof. Does it matter which slot you start in? I thought I had a similar issue with an IBM 600E, but it was apparently damage over time to having cards crammed into the slot. Moving to a different slot fixed the issue, though it does sound more like a chipset support issue in your case. The temporary lockup issue: Just doing common things (browsing the web, etc) after a while the machine will lock yp for 5 seconds, the fan will come on and then the input will work again. That one's wierd. Does running with or without ACPI enabled affect this? It may be worth looking at the system temperature when this is happening. The sound card: I'd like to use the sound card on this machine, If I kldload the snd_csa driver the sound card claims to be working, it makes noise if I cat junk to /dev/dsp but I can't get mpd(pkgsrc/audio/musicpd) to work with it. In addition dmesg spews lots of livelock errors like the following: Here's a kernel conf file from someone using a 570E under FreeBSD 5.x; it lists pcm and csa for audio drivers. http://gerda.univie.ac.at/freebsd-laptops/index.pl?action=show_configconfig=kernellaptop=382 musicpd uses the library faad2 to play mp4 files. faad2 does not allow binary redistribution, so you have to build it from source. When I built faad2 on my 1.4.x system here (so I could play .mp4 in XMMS), it built fine but would crash XMMS every time I loaded it. Can you try a different audio player?
