Some multimedia keys send many keycodes
Hi freebsd users, I'm running 8.0-STABLE on my laptop, and I have many troubles with the functions keys (brightness does not work) and some other keys like fn-key + f3 (usually XF86WWW) sends the XF86WWW keycode AND sends also the F3 code and that's a real problem since some applications use F1,2,3,...,12 keys. For exemple fn-key - f9 must sens XF86AudioMute, it does but also does the F9 key, look : FocusOut event, serial 31, synthetic NO, window 0x141, mode NotifyGrab, detail NotifyAncestor FocusIn event, serial 31, synthetic NO, window 0x141, mode NotifyUngrab, detail NotifyAncestor KeymapNotify event, serial 31, synthetic NO, window 0x0, keys: 22 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 KeyPress event, serial 31, synthetic NO, window 0x141, root 0x116, subw 0x0, time 298861, (232,-53), root:(234,285), state 0x10, keycode 75 (keysym 0xffc6, F9), same_screen YES, XLookupString gives 0 bytes: XmbLookupString gives 0 bytes: XFilterEvent returns: False KeyRelease event, serial 31, synthetic NO, window 0x141, root 0x116, subw 0x0, time 298861, (232,-53), root:(234,285), state 0x10, keycode 75 (keysym 0xffc6, F9), same_screen YES, XLookupString gives 0 bytes: XFilterEvent returns: False The weird thing is that fn-f11 and fn-f12 (volume up and volume down) sends only the good keycode without the F11 and F12 keycode. So for the moment I don't know if it's only a X.org problem or a problem linked to the ACPI since the fn-key is probably associated to the ACPI. However this does not happens on Linux.

Re: Porting NetworkManager to FreeBSD
2010/4/16 Jerry freebsd.u...@seibercom.net: Has there been any movement on porting NetworkManager http://projects.gnome.org/NetworkManager/ to FreeBSD? I read something awhile ago, I don't remember where, that it was planned for the 8.0 release (I think). I have seen it in use on a friends PC, and it is really awesome. Do you really like NM ? Each time I use it it bugs, sometimes it connects and sometime not. Of course it's great for people who wants something easy to manage but NM needs the users to connect the X session. wpa_supplicant is really great, it scans access points available and try to connect them (you can add many networks in your wpa_supplicant.conf) and then it starts connecting even if you're not in your X session. About the NM port in freebsd I guess we can wait a long time.

You can use devd.conf for this:
attach 100 {
device-name ugen[0-9].[0-9];
match vendor 0x04b8;
match product 0x010a;
action usb_devaddr=`echo $device-name | sed 's#^ugen##'` \
chown root:saned /dev/usb/${usb_devaddr}.* \
chmod 0660 /dev/usb/${usb_devaddr}.*
Copied from a post on -current or similar; apologies to the author, who I've
forgotten. I thought this was in the default devd.conf as an example, but
it appears not.
devfs.rules don't apply to devices that are created dynamically after
boot-up. Or I guess they might be if you reload the ruleset with applyset
after the device is created, but devd is a lot more capable.
from devfs.rules(5) :
NAME
devfs.rules — devfs configuration information
DESCRIPTION
The devfs.rules file provides an easy way to create and apply devfs(8)
rules, *even for devices that are not available at boot.*
But devfs.rules is specially made for device not available at boot
such as usb keys.

I'd prefere $() rather than ``. It's more powerful, for example you can
write a multiple $() but not `` see :
markand@Abricot ~ $ echo $(basename $(which dmesg))
dmesg
markand@Abricot ~ $ echo `basename `which dmesg``
usage: basename string [suffix]
basename [-a] [-s suffix] string [...]
which dmesg
Of course the example code is useless but shows the limitations of ``.
Nowadays all shells supports $() so I advise you to use it :).

It certainly works on my system (RELENG_8, updated this week). mergemaster -U functionality depends on mergemaster having recorded an mtree database of what the contents of your /etc (and various other bits) looks like. The first time you run mergemaster with the -U flag, it's going to ask you about a lot of files -- but after that, it remembers and you only get asked about updating files you've previously modified. The recommendation for minimizing the amount of questions asked is: * the first time you run mergemaster, on a newly installed machine: mergemaster -UFi (This will involve quite a lot of user interaction) * for any subsequent updates: mergemaster -Ui (Which will be much more automated) The other handy tip is to make sure you don't delete the $FreeBSD$ tags from your fles, and that when the file is modified upstream, you merge in the new value for the tag. Doing this certainly works for me -- frequently the only file I get asked about is /etc/motd Cheers, Matthew Yes that's true, now mergemaster do not ask me for any file except /etc/passwd, /etc/login.conf /etc/rc.conf and so on :) Thanks, cheers, -- David Demelier ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

Wireless always getting down/up
Hello,
In my university there is a special WPA-EAP access point used for safety.
I can't get a connection alive 15 minutes without being deconnected..
I noticed these messages when the problem appears :

Is this a wpa_supplicant/openssl trouble ?
This is the following configuration I must use (provided by my university)
network={

ssid=eduroam
proto=WPA2 WPA
scan_ssid=1
key_mgmt=WPA-EAP

Disabling ca_cert or enabling does not solve.

Should not be managed by ukbd only? I don't understand .. But thanks for the patch. Basically, the kbdmux option wires keyboards in parallel, so you can use both keyboards (assume they are physically present) at the same time, like one keyboard for each hand. If this option was not present, you would have to use kbdcontrol -k to switch from one keyboard (the currently active one) to the other (not usable). Problems may occur if your mainboard does provide an AT style keyboard (usually with PS/2 connector) as atkbdc0 and adkbd0 (controller and keyboard) even if there is no physical keyboard attached. This would then usually become the primary keyboard. A USB keyboard, detected later on as ukbd0, would not automatically be activated (or switched over to by a kbdcontrol -k command issued by devd) and can therefore not be used, even if physically present (in opposite to the phantom keyboard atkbd0). The kbdmux option makes _all_ keyboards available for input (without using kbdcontrol -k and without dependency of devd) so the USB keyboard will be used, the AT phantom keyboard will be ignored (which is good when it's not even present). So basically, kbdmux means use all of them, while its absence means use this or that. Thanks for this information :-) I understood. I hope the patch proposed will be MFC to -STABLE then.

Hi David,

What compiler and what optimizations? Most compilers will optimize a
printf without any special formatting into a puts call instead of a
printf call.
I was using clang / gcc without any optimisations.
For example clang -O3 -fomit-frame-pointer (which I use for clarity
here) outputs this code:
.file leak.c
...
main: # @main
# BB#0: # %entry
subl$12, %esp

Lets take a look at what valgrind says immediately after this:
==14481== For counts of detected and suppressed errors, rerun with: -v
One of the lines we get is
--14508-- used_suppression: 1 libc puts leak
I didn't see this one, thanks!
Which means it is a known issue and has been specially marked as to
avoid being reported by valgrind.
Lets take a look to see where this suppression happens: in
/usr/local/lib/valgrind/default.supp we find
{
libc puts leak
Memcheck:Leak
fun:malloc
obj:/lib/libc.so.7
obj:/lib/libc.so.7
obj:/lib/libc.so.7
fun:puts
fun:main
}
After some investigation I was able to find the following commit:
http://p4db.freebsd.org/chv.cgi?CH=168767 which shows when this
suppression was added and by whom.
I trust that if you are interested in the details of why this leak is
detected you have the skills to follow up on this by yourself :-)
Thanks a lot for the details.
Thank you for trying to make FreeBSD better!

Hello,

It seems this node is an opaque type but how to check it and store it to
the appropriate variable type ?
The best way to determine this is to read the source. I did that some time ago
to fix the temperature display in sysutils/conky.
The sysctl dev.cpu.0.temperature returns an integer, see
/sys/dev/coretemp/coretemp.c (look for the string temperature), and you'll
see:
/*
* Add the temperature MIB to dev.cpu.N.
*/
sc-sc_oid = SYSCTL_ADD_PROC(device_get_sysctl_ctx(pdev),
SYSCTL_CHILDREN(device_get_sysctl_tree(pdev)),
OID_AUTO, temperature,
CTLTYPE_INT | CTLFLAG_RD,
dev, 0, coretemp_get_temp_sysctl, IK,
Current temperature);
If you look at the definition of coretemp_get_temp_sysctl in the same file:
coretemp_get_temp_sysctl(SYSCTL_HANDLER_ARGS)
{
device_t dev = (device_t) arg1;
int temp;
temp = coretemp_get_temp(dev) * 10 + TZ_ZEROC;
return (sysctl_handle_int(oidp,temp, 0, req));
}
So the returned value is an 'int'. Note that TZ_ZEROC is #defined as 2732 at
the beginning of the file. The returned value is therefore the temperature
in Kelvin times ten.
On my machine, it gives e.g.:
sysctl dev.cpu.0.temperature
dev.cpu.0.temperature: 46.0C
If we check the 'raw' return value;
sysctl -b dev.cpu.0.temperature|hd
78 0c 00 00 |x...|
0004
Running this value with the abovementioned algorithm in reverse through a
calculator, we get
(0x0c78-2732)/10 = 46°C
Hope this helps.
Roland
Thanks a lot!
I had a look into the src and I saw the format IK used to register the
sysctl node but I was also surprised that IK was not defined in man
sysctl(9)
But I finally understood that K should means Kelvin :)
Cheers,

usbconfig need ugenx.y to deal with vendor and product id so how can
I know the vendor and product id of my uhid device ?
devd returns a device-name value. I thought there was an example in
the scanner section of the Handbook, but no. A rough example:
attach 20 {
device-name ugen[0-9].[0-9];
match vendor 0x0;
match product 0x;
action /usr/bin/usbhidaction $device-name ...;
};
Which should be -f $device-name...
In fact I successfully done it working with :
attach 100 {
device-name uhid[0-9]+;
match vendor 0x046e;
match product 0x55a5;
action /usr/bin/usbhidaction -f $device-name -c
/etc/usbhidaction.conf;
};
I saw the vendor and product id using usbconfig show_ifdrv :
ugen0.3.1: uhid0: BTC USB Multimedia Keyboard, class 0/0, rev

When I only use my desktop and don't want a tiled wm I'd rather use pekwm, it is fast and similar to fluxbox without a taskbar but with more features and a very easy config file syntax.

If the camera supports PTP, use a gphoto2 (CLI program) or a GUI tool that uses it (e. g. Gtkam for Gnome, Digikam for KDE). You'll find them in the ports collection. Also check the menu of the camera if it can be switched between PTP mode and DA mode. I have a Canon S3 IS myself and it can do both modes, but I prefer extracting the memory card and using it with the internal reader of the computer instead of messing with the USB cable. :-) In the past, I had a camera that worked very well with gphoto2. It did identify to the system as ugen (USB generic), no further messages appeared. See man gphoto2 on how to scan for devices and how to copy (and maybe delete) pictures from the camera. You can also automate this process (using devd) or use a GUI solution for it. I've been using Gtkam in the past for the task of selectively dealing with pictures. Thanks a lot, I used gphoto, at the beginning it didn't found the device because of lack of permissions. I've just added some rules in devfs to use it as normal user and it works ! add path 'usb/*' mode 0660 group operator thanks for gtkam, it looks great :) -- David Demelier ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

Dualboot with Windows 7
Hello, I try to create a dualboot with Windows 7, I set up partitions like that : ada0s1 - NTFS (windows recovery) ada0s2 - NTFS (windows main partition) ada0s3 - BSD ada0s3a - freebsd-swap (3G) ada0s3b - freebsd-ufs / (remaining space from drive) And then I let the installer complete the step, because FreeBSD didn't let you (since 9.0) choose between the boot manager nothing was installed and the boot directly goes to Windows 7. I installed EasyBCD to add a new entry to FreeBSD on the third partition, but when I choose the FreeBSD entry nothing happens, only the _ character blinking. Thus I tried bsdlabel -B ada0s3 from the FreeBSD iso shell but it didn't solve. What can I do to boot FreeBSD now?

I installed EasyBCD to add a new entry to FreeBSD on the third partition, but when I choose the FreeBSD entry nothing happens, only the _ character blinking. I assume missing boot characteristics as described above. Please review your installation process and maybe re-do it. In worst case, drop to command line for using the traditional toolset to apply the proper slicing and partitioning. According to man fdisk and man bsdlabel, you should be able to write the required boot characteristics to allow the correct boot process. Thus I tried bsdlabel -B ada0s3 from the FreeBSD iso shell but it didn't solve. What can I do to boot FreeBSD now? As this part is done, I suppose incorrect partitioning. 2.6.5 Creating Partitions Using Disklabel http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/install-steps.html Refer to table 2-2: Partition Layout for First Disk.

Looks correct. Now the question is how to branch the a partition as the boot partition ? No need. As soon as the branching from ada0-start - ada0s3 has been processed, the 'a' partition ada0s3a will be accessed as it is the boot partition. It will then continue stage 1 and 2 and finally access the loader, which will load the kernel. In 13.3.2 it is explained as follows: They [Stage One, /boot/boot1, and Stage Two, /boot/boot2] are located outside file systems, in the first track of the boot slice, starting with the first sector. This is where boot0, or any other boot manager, expects to find a program to run which will continue the boot process. The number of sectors used is easily determined from the size of /boot/boot. In your case, the boot slice (for FreeBSD) is ada0s3 where the boot manager EasyBCD will branch to. Getting just a cursor (as you described) makes it hard to identify where the process hangs. If EasyBCD is the last thing you see, I assume the FreeBSD boot process isn't even initiated. Every part of it (MBR boot manager, boot0, boot1, boot2 and loader) would issue some kind of text when accessed. I couldn't say exactly how to do this now (been a long time), but you should be able to boot using the Windows loader (this may have changed in recent editions. Don't think so though). This will give you a choice between Windows or FreeBSD and defaults, timers, etc during boot. Used to be able to do it under system properties I believe; run a google search should provide some examples. Using EasyBCD you must ensure that your Windows partition has the boot flag set. /Leslie ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org I reinstalled using the auto scheme, by adding a partition now it works.

That's what mplayer says:

What do you mean by a decoder is needed?
Have you tried vlc or xine?
Seen in multimedia/mplayer/Makefile.shared:

That's probably why mplayer won't play surround sound, I'll try with VLC

Auvisio USB remote
Hello folks; I have a USB remote (http://www.ortek.com/upimg/200732111364392163.jpg). It's an auvisio VRC-1100 Ro, there is no much information on it. It's recognized as a simple keyboard and mouse. The buttons sends some keypress events like p enter and numbers, but there is also multimedia keys, these don't send keypress events so I guess this is send via the HID device but I don't know how I can use them on FreeBSD. This is the message when I plug the remote controller. ugen2.2: vendor 0x05a4 at usbus2 ukbd0: vendor 0x05a4 product 0x9881, class 0/0, rev 1.10/1.10, addr 2 on usbus2 kbd2 at ukbd0 ums1: vendor 0x05a4 product 0x9881, class 0/0, rev 1.10/1.10, addr 2 on usbus2 ums1: 5 buttons and [XYZ] coordinates ID=1 What can I try for the multimedia keys ?

trying to sysctl(3) a char value
Hello,
Since I cannot adjust the brightness on my HP Probook because it sucks
I'm writing a small script that can be use instead. I need to sysctl
the following sysctl variables :
hw.acpi.video.lcd0.brightness
hw.acpi.video.lcd0.levels
the -brightness one is easy since it's an integer, but the levels is
possibly a char :
mark...@melon ~ $ sysctl hw.acpi.video.lcd0.brightness
hw.acpi.video.lcd0.brightness: 90
mark...@melon ~ $ sysctl hw.acpi.video.lcd0.levels
hw.acpi.video.lcd0.levels: 100 50 0 5 10 15 20 25 30 33 36 40 43 46 50
55 60 65 70 75 80 83 86 90 93 96 100
How can I store the content of hw.acpi.video.lcd0.levels? This small
code doesn't work :
#include stdio.h
#include stdlib.h
#include sys/types.h
#include sys/sysctl.h
int
main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
char buf[128];
size_t len;
len = sizeof (buf);
if (sysctlbyname(hw.acpi.video.lcd0.levels, buf, len, NULL, 0) ==
-1) {
perror(sysctl);
return -1;
}
printf(levels = %s\n, buf);
}

levels = d
