This doesn't look normal. Maybe kernel messages have "precedence"
and can appear while regular output is halted? The cursor block
should disappear (and the LED should light up). When the console
TTY (ttyv0) does not show "any more action", is scrolling back
possible then?

I've tried it on my home 8.2 system. Normal output is halted.
I seem to remember that kernel messages "unlock" Scroll Lock...

Thanks for the info. I did an update of my ports tree last Friday, when I
also emailed the maintainer of FFmpeg port. As I received no response,
I assumed the port hasn't changed. I just synced my ports and see the
1.2.1 in ffmpeg1

I would like to thank Martin for the update!

This does not work for me.  Specifically, pushing [Scroll Lock]
causes the appropriate light to go on, but output continues to flow.

The messages log definitely shows problems with your io.  The smart log of
the disks are also at least mildly concerning and indicates the drives are
in a preliminary stage of death.  Some HD deaths take years to complete.
Expect random glitches and intermittent reduced performance as a continuous
degradation.   You might be able to alleviate some of this by switching to
the AHCI driver and bumping up timeouts but at the end of the day 2 flaky
disks in a mirror don't inspire confidence.

This is the default permission for user directories, as root
is considered a user in this (special) case, and /root is its
home directory. The installer does not put anything "secret"
in there, but _you_ might, so there should be no issue changing
it to a more restricted access permission.

Hint: When a directory is r-x for "other", then it will be
indexed by the locate periodic job, so users could use the
locate command (and also find) to look what's in there. If
this is not desired, change to rwx/---/---, or rwx/r-x/---
if you want to allow (trusted) users of the "wheel" group
to read and execute stuff from that directory (maybe homemade
admin scripts in /root/bin that should not be "public").

There are few things that touch /root content. System updating
might be one of them, but as it is typically run as root (and
even in SUM), restrictive permissions above the default are
no problem.

To summarize the answer for your question: It's just the default. :-)

You need to look a little closer. We have three versions available in 
ports -


multimedia/ffmpeg which is at 0.7.15
multimedia/ffmpeg1 which is at 1.2.1 - updated 2 days ago
multimedia/ffmpeg-devel which is an svn snapshot at 2012.10.13

You will find a lot of ports are still configured to use 0.7.15.

The main catch is the ports are designed to co-exist so ffmpeg1 has the
trailing 1 added to all the lib/cli names.

I have had no problems using ffmpeg1 with my version of blender for
several months now. It has a cmake option for lib names and then I
added include/ffmpeg1 to C/CXXFLAGS and lib/ffmpeg1 to LDFLAGS.

Troubleshooting a gmirror disk marked broken

[Nikola Pavlović]

Hi,

Last night during a massive (~1 year worth :| )
portsnap fetch

the server went unresponsive and ssh eventually disconnected.  I decided
to leave it during the night, and, sure enough, the situation was the
same in the morning, so I had to do a hard reset.  It came back up, but
one of the two gmirror components was marked as broken and deactivated.

The hang happened during the 'fetching new files or ports' (~24000 of
them, there are currently ~1 snapshots in /var/db/portsnap) phase
of postsnap fetch.

/var/log/messages was completely silent during the period between the
hang and the reset.

Googling around I found a mention that it's possible to sometimes get a
'blip'[*] during busy periods, so I decided to just bite the bullet and
reinsert the component with
# gmirror forget gm0
# gmirror clean ad4
# gmirror insert gm0 ad4

Currently it's syncing and things *seem* OK.  My question is how much
should I be worried and what could be the cause of this?  Is it possible
that  ports snapshot fetching caused this, or that perhaps it was the other
way around (a failing disk causing the machine to choke during the huge
portsnap fetch)?  How to proceed? :)

At the moment I'm attaching smartctl -a results for both disks (ad4 was
marked broken).  As I'm completely useless in deciphering smartctl
results (apart from being thought by experience to pretty much
ignore(tm) the 'Pre-fail' statuses), I'd appreciate assessment from more
knowledgeable people.

Also attached is a trimmed /var/log/messages from the moment of hard
reset on (I can fill in the snipped parts, just didn't want to choke people
with possibly irrelevant details).

Thanks, can you confirm you compiled version 1.2 from source without issues?
I saw a lot of patches in older port versions of it, so I assumed I will have 
many
issues. The ffmpeg-develop port installs oct 2012 version which is even older
than ffmpeg1 port, I believe.

i make extensive use of ffmpeg, try devel port or try build from ffmpeg
src, try gcc46. there arent issues i can think of. its pretty well put
together. if you install the port first then build src  its easier b/c it

I imagine / needs those permissions during installation but maybe they
should be changed to something more desirable at post-install.  What
would you suggest -- maybe 555?

This is a very 'trivial' question but it's bugging me since quite a

There's any reason (and should be a fairly good one) why the /root
directory permissions by default are set to 755 (for sure on releases
8.0/8.1/9.0/9.1)

MAC and Xorg on FBSD 9.1-p4

[ASV]

Hi all,
as you can see from the footer I've already posted this on the list 
trustedbsd-disc...@freebsd.org
but because that one seems to be dead to me I apologise if I'm trying to get 
some hint here.

Briefly, I'm trying to run X on my FreeBSD 9.1 with the following MAC
modules enabled:
mac_biba
mac_mls
mac_seeotheruids
mac_partition

I'm still actually in the learning process of this very granular but
complex security system but I'm learning fast as I found it very
interesting.
Unfortunately when it comes to X it seems to be more complicated. I
cannot run it not even as root.
I get:
..
Unable to map MMIO aperture. Permission denied (13)
Memory map the MMIO region failed
..

until the timeout and back to prompt.

I get the same error with root which is the default login class and on
an ad-hoc restricted user.
As soon as I disable the modules everything works well.

I know this is a very brief description but it should be enough for now
to know if this is a known issue and/or the X system is known as NOT
WORKING/HAVING PROBLEMS with MAC.

And as MAC on FreeBSD is dark matter (googling is basically useless if
not for basic conf.) any hint would be highly appreciated.

Thanks a lot.

Looks like you can't w/ the default VLAN code:
BUGS
 No 802.1Q features except VLAN tagging are implemented.

You could probably implement it w/ ng_patch, but that would also mean
you'd lose the feature of the card adding the VLAN tag for you...

PC-BSD is a good place to start; it makes installation easy.

I prefer running Windows in a VM under VirtualBox to dual-booting. Switching
between the two is much faster, and you can make the host file system visible
to the guest with Samba.


The only drawback of this is performance. Or you have a very powerful
machine :-)


The VM guests run pretty quick, at least if the host CPU has VT-x or 
AMD-V.  Check the BIOS, Intel VT-x is sometimes disabled there.  I have 
not benchmarked but would estimate it to be 80-90% equivalent CPU speed, 
maybe a bit less for disk I/O depending on the virtual disk type.


Windows in a VM also has the benefit of being able to move the VM to a 
different host without having to reinstall the operating system in the 
VM.  But overall, the best feature is that the VM host and guest run at 
the same time.

When in doubt: fetch source, build, install, and use mergemaster. Then
reboot. Better safe than sorry.

FreeBSD:: How to set VLAN priority?

[Alex Liptsin]

Hello.

I work with FreeBSD 9.1 RELEASE.
I had configured VLANs on my server, but I can't find a way to configure VLAN 
priority.
How can I do it?

Thanks.

Re: Should I be able to use mergemaster with freebsd-update?

[Mike Brown]

> /etc.

Whoa, sorry, I misspoke here. 


freebsd-update asked me, after the merges, to approve unspecified differences 
in pwd.db and spwd.db.  I assumed that it had fetched those files as part of 
the 8.4 distribution. But http://svnweb.freebsd.org/base/release/8.4.0/etc/ 
seems to indicate that's not what happened; only master.passwd was changed.


I'm looking through the freebsd-update code now. I see it does actually do 
some special handling of master.passwd, but not until you do your 
'freebsd-update install'. At that point, it will look at /etc/master.passwd 
and see if it's newer than /etc/pwd.db or /etc/spwd.db, and it will run 
pwd_mkdb. It doesn't use the -p flag, so I guess it doesn't care about passwd.

This pwd_mkdb run didn't happen for me, though, since my 'freebsd-update 
install' run didn't actually put the new master.passwd file, or anything else, 
into /etc yet. I thought it would, but I don't understand it, really. So I 
don't see how it's supposed to work.


To summarize:

1. I did the initial 'freebsd-update -r 8.4-RELEASE upgrade'
2. When prompted, I did all the merges it needed me to do by hand.
3. When prompted, I approved all the diffs. Two of the diffs were unspecified 
pwd.db & spwd.db changes, which caused me some alarm.
4. I looked in the staging area and found that these were empty files.
5. I looked in /etc and nothing new had been placed there yet.
6. I did the 'freebsd-update install' and checked /etc again; still nothing.
7. Afraid of rebooting with bogus password database files staged, I generated
proper pwd.db, spwd.db, and passwd files myself, and put them in the
staging area.

Next step, I think, is reboot, before another 'freebsd-update install' run.
I'm worried something is still amiss, though, so I'm holding off for now. :(
