 Bingo!  Thank you.

 Cool, I expect grog will commit it soon.

 So did I until I read this message.

 The patch for ccd is not quite right.  Here is the patch from my
 big fat patch at http://www.backplane.com/FreeBSD4/

 The problem is that you cannot simply set the physical sector
 size to DEV_BSIZE if the underlying device has a larger sector
 size.  If you do, specfs's blocksize alignment (another fix in
 my big fat patch) will be incorrect and result in an I/O error
 on the physical media.

 For example, swap-backed VN devices have a sector size of one page,
 i.e. 4K.

 Vinum currently doesn't track the sector size of the drives.  I'll
 have to put some code in there to DTRT.  In the meantime, I'll set
 si_bsize_best to 4K in the hope that this will be OK.  Are there any
 larger block sizes in current use?

 4K is probably too conservative, it only applies if you have a
 swap-backed vn device at the bottom, which would be a truly
 weird thing to do with vinum.

I think I've heard of people doing things like this.  Cybernet were
thinking of it a long time ago, but I think I've talked them out of
it.

 Don't spend too much time on tracking the sector size yet.  I think
 the si_bsize stuff needs some thinking before we do more with it.

OK, I'll set it to 4 kB at the moment and make a note to myself to fix
it when dev_t stops changing.

Jordan, I've lived in the US, Luxembourg, Italy and Denmark.

While it is true that anyone can sue anybody else for anything they
feel like all over the planet, the likely (lack of) outcome in
europe makes it far less likely that they will do so in the first
place.

The main difference as far as I can tell, is that European courts
apply some kind of "common sense" criteria before they award huge
compensations to people who burn themselves on coffee, cut their
fingers off with chain saws and so on:  "Should this person not
be realizing that coffee could be hot ?  She has been drinking 
coffee for the last 50+ years ?"  "If you use a chainsaw, shouldn't
you be smart enough to realize that you cannot stop the chain
with your hand ?" etc etc.

The secondary difference is that in all the countries I know,
they lawyer has to state his fee before the verdict, and it
may not depend on the outcome of the verdict.

The third difference is that we only use jurys in murder cases,
we fully realize the ability of a showman-laywer to sway a jury,
therefore we don't use them, unless the issue is the gravest
crime we know off.

Fourth, "puntative damages" fall to the state over here, so the
potential for getting rich that way is simply not present.

So while you're technically correct reality looks far different.

You need to add

options SC_PIXEL_MODE

to your kernel configuration file.

There is a note in http://www.freebsd.org/~yokota/sc_update-June.txt,
which is referenced by /usr/src/UPDATING, about this option.

-
options SC_PIXEL_MODE
Syscons has supported the raster console mode (VESA 800x600) by
default.  This is now an optional feature, and must be explicitly
enabled by SC_PIXEL_MODE.  If you have been using this mode, add the
above option.

Please also refer to the man page syscons(4).

current-APM causes panic on SMP-System

1999-08-27 Thread Michael Class

Hello,

since the apm-code was changed to use the generic bios-call interface
(dated around 1999/07/28) my FreeBSD-4.0-current system panics when I do
an "apmconf -e". This has not changed since then. I reproduced it with 
a very current System (1999/08/25) today.

The system is a Dual-Proc GigaByte 6BXDS-MB with 2x350Mhz PII and 256MB-RAM.
For further information I have added the Config-File and dmesg-output.

When calling apmconf -e i am getting the following panic:
(written down by hand, so there might be some typos)

---
Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode
mp_lock=0102; cpuid=1; lapic.id=0100
fault virtual address   = 0x8380
fault code  = supervisor read, page not present
ip  = 0x50:0x8380
stack   = 0x10:0xff80df24
frame   = 0x10:0xc02bde80

code= base 0xc00f, limit 0x, type 0x1b
= DPL 0, pres 1, def32 1, gran 0

proc flags  = intr enabled, resume, iopl=0
current proc= idle

interrupt mask  =  -- SMP: XXX
---

The Adress 0x8380 seems to be the one from the APM-BIOS-Call.

What can I do to track this further down?

Michael

There's nothing wrong with the si_bsize stuff, but it got

All that really needs to be done is to reset the block sizes
to their defaults when the last reference to the device goes
away.  This way reconfigurable devices do not have to reload the 
defaults prior to making adjustments based on the actual sector
size of the device.

There is no better way to do it.  specfs and physio need to
know how to realign byte-aligned I/O requests for physical devices.

True.

A  well  known  german lawyer is currently about to sue a few webhosters
for  using the name "Webspace" in their ads. (Yes, some silly - or maybe

In this case, the problem are not the lawyers, but the fact that you can
actually register trademarks like this one.

Others have been threatened with lawsuits for using the word "Triton" in
mainboard  advertisments  a  few years ago, because "Triton" sounds very
similar to the registered trademark "Tricon".

According to Sergey A. Osokin:
 After cvsup my -current sources, i try to make build world...

 === sys/boot/i386/boot2
 (cd /usr/src/sys/boot/i386/boot2; m4 -DFLAGS=0 boot1.m4 boot1.s) |  as  -o boot1.o

I get a different error:

Probably it consequences of recent dd changes...

So I'm not entirely alone, then.  I actually kernel panic quite reliably every
time I try to dd onto a floppy.  I can dd from one file to another without
a problem, and floppy access in general works as always.

What debugging information would be relevant?

The claim of this arcticle is that the researchers are at a lost of 
what to do with their CA*Net3 network (80 giga bits /second ).

http://abcnews.go.com/sections/tech/CuttingEdge/canadanet990827.html

Hmmm... I wonder what would happen if ftp.freebsd.org was moved to CA*Net3 8)


I am sure that some on the list can figure out other creative uses
like clustering.

Enjoy

Significantly less than what its doing now.

What the article fails to mention, is that (last I heard) CA*Net3 is *not*
connected to the Internet at large. 

Currently, it only connects universities and research institutions within
Canada. AFAIK, there aren't any real plans to patch it into the global 'net.
