drmkms solid hang on T200 laptop booting GENERIC amd64

dhcpcd, IPv6 DAD

2014-07-29 Thread Dave Tyson
I seem to be having a bit of bother getting a T60 laptop to get an IPv6 address correctly using dhcpcd. The basic setup I have is an ADSL router hardwired to a server (current-ish NetBSD amd64) which gets an ipv6 feed via a HE tunnel. The router hands out IPv4 addresses and the server uses

consistent crashes in 6.99.40 - nfsio code?

2014-04-14 Thread Dave Tyson
I seem to be experiencing some repeatable crashes with 6.99.40 from a few days ago. This is a desktop amd64 system which talks to an HP microserver to get home filestore over NFS. The desktop had been pretty stable on 6.99.40 when the NFS server was running 6.99.23, but I upgraded the server

Problems with hplip package under NetBSD (current 6.1)

2013-09-30 Thread Dave Tyson
I've been playing with the hplip package (pkgsrc-current) and found that both the hp-setup and hp-probe commands fail when trying to scan the network for printers. The problem appears to be related to setting up multicast and although I have found a workaround I have copied tech-kern for comments.
