I recently updated one of my machines to -current to adapt some code to

Has anyone encountered this?
I do a lot of C++ development on -current, and I have been seeing these 
exact warnings.  The problem is in the fstream header, however, so there 
is nothing you can do to your code to prevent the warnings.  You could 
modify /usr/include/g++/fstream to silence the warnings, but it would 
get overwritten if you upgrade your system.

Below is a small example illustrating the problem. The source below should
compile fine on a previous version of g++, as in -stable.  However, it will
not compile on -current using g++ 3.3.2. Does anyone know what to do to the
simple source below to get it to compile happily under -current?
From your output, I don't see compile failures, I see warnings.  Do you 
have -Werror turned on somewhere that wouldn't show up during normal 
usage--like some environment variable or something?  I was able to 
compile and run your code without issue here.

Honestly, I am surprised that a GCC header would have an implicit 
typename since the compiler clearly complains loudly about them.  At any 
rate, I think the update to GCC 3.3 in -current is going to happen quite 
soon, and presumably, the updated GCC C++ headers will have warnings 
such as these fully eliminated.

(yes, I have checked gnu gcc's mailing list and FAQ/docs. I can't find an
adequate explanation for it. I suspect it has something to do with stricter
conformance to the finalized C++ standard, but since I am still a novice any
explanation by gcc developers would probably have slipped by me)

Re: patch for the nVidia driver and -CURRENT

2003-02-25 Thread Patrick Hartling
Does anyone have this working with GDM 2.4.1.3 on -current?  I've found 
that I can use the nvidia driver with Maxime's patch on a freshly built 
-current system as long as I don't use GDM.  If I start up GDM, the 
system freezes as soon as the nvidia logo is replaced by the GDM login 
screen.  In the end, it doesn't make any difference to me if I use GDM 
or XDM, but I would like to know if there is some existing problem with 
the accelerated nvidia driver and GDM or if my local X configuration is 
somehow broken.  Thanks.

Hi all,

Recent interface changes made the nVidia driver unbuildable on -CURRENT.
The attached patch should make it work as it used to.  Please let me
know if it doesn't.


Yes!  Mwa! [Big kiss to Maxime]  Thank you!

The only thing I needed to do to make it work was to delete this line
from nv-freebsd.h:
#error This driver does not support FreeBSD 5.0/-CURRENT!

As long as you are patching you may as well patch that one also, yes?

Time keeping problems with 5.0-RELEASE

2003-01-23 Thread Patrick Hartling
I just updated a 4.7-STABLE system (last rebuilt using sources from
Jan 7, 2003) to 5.0-RELEASE, and now the system clock is going nuts.
I had the same problem when I updated from 3-STABLE to 4-STABLE quite
a while back.  To solve the problem then, I added the following to my
kernel configuration file:

   device apm0 at nexus? disable flags 0x20

For my 5.0 kernel configuration, I have:

   device apm

In /boot/device.hints, I have:

   hint.apm.0.disabled=1
   hint.apm.0.flags=0x20

Unfortunately, this isn't working.  Is there something different I need
to do for 5.0?  Looking in NOTES for information about APM, I see a
reference to a sysctl variable kern.timecounter.method, but that doesn't
seem to be a valid oid in 5.0.  I don't think this system (a cheap, old
Cyrix MediaGX-based computer) supports ACPI.  At the very least, ACPI
isn't enabled by default at boot time as it is on my Athlon system.

The sysctl is now kern.timecounter.hardware.  For example:



sysctl kern.timecounter.hardware 

kern.timecounter.hardware: ACPI-safe

If it is currently set to 'tsc', try changing it to 'i8254' and see if
it works better.  If so, you can stick that in /etc/sysctl.conf.

For me, works just implies that it starts up on a blank document before

Lost disklabel

2002-11-13 Thread Patrick Hartling
I have a machine that is running -current from October 10, 2002.  It had 
been running fine for about two weeks--up until I had to reboot it. 
When it came back up, one of my disks apparently lost its disklabel.

Is there any way to recover a disklabel?  If not, I'm willing to grovel 
the disk and try to reconstruct its disklabel (there is really only one 
partition on it that I need to get back, and its at the beginning of the 
disk), but disklabel(8) won't even let me try to make a new one.  If I 
run 'disklabel -e da3s1', I get an error saying ioctl DIOCGDINFO: 
Inappropriate ioctl for device.  Running 'disklabel -r da3s1' gives a 
bad magic pack number error, which does not surprise me.

This is a dangerously dedicated disk with a single BIOS partition 
containing four FreeBSD partitions.  I have a second identical disk in 
the machine.  fdisk(8) gives the same information for each, so I don't 
think the BIOS partition is messed up.  Is there something obvious that 
I'm missing about how to fix this problem?

Really?  My GNOME apps built from 2 months (up to 2 hours) ago have been
working better as I run kernel+world nearer to the impending release.


Mine had been working quite well up until this weekend.  Only two things 
changed on my system: the kernel and the freetype2 port version (it's now 
freetype2-2.1.2_1).  I'm running GNOME 2.0, so it may have some 
instability due to growing pains.  However, I have been running GNOME 2 
since the (excellent) ports team got it working on FreeBSD--the problems 
only began this weekend.

What sorts of problems are you running into?


Nearly all GNOME applications crash with an Abort trap error, and the 
only way I can log out is to restart the X server.  Nautilus is 
particularly evil because it can get into a situation where it crashes, 
restarts itself, and crashes again--repeating the process indefinitely.

 Also, how old was your
kernel, and how old is your userland?


Userland and old kernel are from October 13.  I built the new kernel 
Friday evening.  I booted my Oct 13 kernel this morning, and the GNOME 
crashes are persisting, so I think my original diagnosis was wrong.  I 
think I'll try to back off to the previous freetype2 revision and see if 
that fixes things.

 With no more info, I'd prolly
advise you to update everything to the latest, and if problems persist,
rebuild your GNOME stuff, and if problems persist, throw exception...


I may do so if backing off freetype2 doesn't fix things.


But the latter bits of that are a bit drastic, depending on the hw!


I'll manage.  :)  These are the pains of living on the bleeding edge.

This sounds very promising, but I want to make sure I do this correctly. 
When you say to remove the plexes, that means to use 'vinum rm' with

Thanks very much for your help.

 You have *both* plexes faulty which means that you either have waited
 too long running with only one disk left or that both failed a once.
 For the second point can be channel or power supply issues if they
 share a single resource in common.
 You will find it out by reading your log files.
 Of course you should fix the failure reason before doing anything else.
 
 I have made a bad expirience once in that if you revive one plex
 now you will get zeros written because there is no reference plex left.
 Greg: It's long ago but I forgot to tell you.
   Do you remember anything about such a bug got fixed?
 
 The shure way is to store the vinum printconfig output and then
 remove both plexes.
 finaly reconfigure them both beginning using the values from printconfig
 and start with the drive which run at last, because it has the most
 recent data.

Vinum + DEVFS ?

2001-06-30 Thread Patrick Hartling

I just got two new hard drives, and I am preparing to set them up to do
RAID-1 with Vinum.  A few weeks ago (around the time that use of DEVFS
became the default in -current), I saw a message saying that Vinum was
not yet ready for use with DEVFS.  Is that still the case?

Yes, I think it's the xforms library which is distributed only in binary
form.  All of the ports I build myself are linking to libc.so.4 (they
were built before the version number was bumped) or to libc.so.5.  The
xforms website doesn't seem to have anything built for newer versions
of FreeBSD.  I just have to be patient while the LyX developers work on
moving away from xforms to Motif or GTK+ or anything better.

LyX 1.1.5.2 dumping core

2001-01-27 Thread Patrick Hartling

I just rebuilt my -current system yesterday, and now LyX is throwing up
all over itself.  It starts up fine, but if I try to load a document or
create a new one, it immediately dumps core.  The problem seems to be
occuring the the xforms library.  I have a fresh copy of the compat3x
distribution from 4.2-RELEASE installed, but LyX is still unhappy.  Does
anyone have any suggestions on how I might fix this?  I'm not opposed to
reverting back to a version of -current from earlier this month.  The
previous version I was running was from approximately January 5.

Panic in pmap_enter

2000-03-31 Thread Patrick Hartling

I rebuilt my -current system this morning and am now getting paincs with
both the SMP and non-SMP kernels.  The current panic with a uniprocessor
kernel is:

panic: pmap_enter: invalid page directory, pdir=0, va=0xc0da

It occurs right after the output for pci0.  I'm currently sitting at the db
prompt with this kernel.

With an SMP kernel, I get the following at the same point in the boot
process:

panic: pmap_enter: invalid page directory, pdir=0, va=0xc0da3000

mp_lock=0023; cpuid=0;

Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode
mp_lock=0024; cpuid=0;

This is with sources cvsup'd around 8:30 am CST today (3/31).

I can still boot my old kernel (from 3/26), but I get a panic in ifconfig
when my Ethernet card (an onboard Intel EtherExpress Pro 10/100) is
configured, so it's not easy for me to get working sources or newer changes.
Has anyone else seen this?  I haven't seen much email today because my
-current machine is where I normally get my mail.  :(

 This usually happens when you set kernel resource options that are
 too high.  If you are setting kernel resource options, try commenting
 them out.

Well, I did recently add options for shared memory settings to get XFree86
4.0 working better.  It hadn't caused any problems until now though.  I just
tried commenting out those options and recompiling, but I still get the
panic.

 To get your old kernel to boot you may have to remove your ethernet card.

That's not an option.  ;)  I am, however, using the if_fxp module instead of
compiling the driver into the kernel, so I can avoid loading the module.

 You can boot the kernel into single user mode.  Interrupt the FreeBSD
 boot sequence by hitting space, then (typically) type 'boot /kernel -s'
 (specify a path to your working kernel if not /kernel).

Yes, I know how to get into single-user mode and how to choose kernels at
boot time.  I was a bit vague in what I was trying to do with my old
kernel.  Sorry for any confusion.

Kerberized telnet not installed

I just built and installed sources cvsup'd at 17:45 CDT October 9 with
${MAKE_KERBEROS4} enabled, but the Kerberized telnet was not installed.  I
looked over the recent changes to add SRA to telnet, but I am not familiar
enough with the order in which things are built and installed to figure
out what happened.  I did notice that secure/usr.bin/telnet/Makefile was
brought back to life after being dead for about 3 years, but this was the
only change that really jumped out at me as being significant.  Is there
something new I need do to get a Kerberized telnet?  Thanks.

Is this helpful?

Re: adding DHCP client to src/contrib/

People repeatedly ask me if FreeBSD comes with a DHCP client when I suggest

familiar with FreeBSD's wonderful ports and package systems, it still causes
some people to shy away.

When someone can simply click a radio button or mark a check box in their
network configuration in these operating systems, they seem to assume that
having to do anything more than that will be too hard.  I think that having
this small client (which I have installed as a port) in the base operating
system will get people to warm up to the idea of trying out FreeBSD.  It's
one less thing that inexperiencied people have to worry about.  These new
people may find it semi-frightening to have to remember all those numbers
and have to type them in, possibly more than once if something goes wrong.

Incorrect idle times

1999-02-06 Thread Patrick Hartling
I'm getting some weird/wrong idle times with newly opened windows.  For
example, this is from a few minutes ago:

 w
 3:27PM  up 13 mins, 6 users, load averages: 0.21, 0.18, 0.13
USER TTY  FROM  LOGIN@  IDLE WHAT
[...]
mystify  p3   :0.0  3:17PM  1:00 ssh friley-185-206.res
[...]
mystify  p5   :0.0  3:26PM  2:03 ssh -l patrick crunche
mystify  p6   :0.0  3:27PM 28:41 ssh -l patrick crunche


These are in xterms that I just opened and in which I have done nothing
(including type in a password thanks to ssh).  This is on a freshly built
4.0-current system running XFree86 3.3.3.1.  I saw this before rebuilding
this afternoon but didn't pay attention to the conditions under which it
happened.

It's easily repeatable by simply opening a new xterm and not typing anything
in it.  If I close the xterm on ttyp6 by logging out and then open a new one,
the idle time is at zero.  If I close it by clicking on the window manager's
close button, the idle time picks up where it left off.  It's not a problem
or even an annoyance.  It's just a little strange since it seems as though
idle times are being recycled in a way.

That looks great to me.  I was thinking that something like the above would

Reading a text file with BTX

1999-01-28 Thread Patrick Hartling
Is there a way to view the contents of a text file (specifically,
/boot/loader.rc) with BTX?  Now that there are all these nifty new modules,
my kernel is a lot smaller and my /boot/loader.rc is a lot longer.  The way
I have my /boot/loader.rc setup is such that it unloads everythin
automatically loaded if I drop to the BTX prompt instead of autobooting.
This is fairly convenient except when I want to boot an alternate kernel but
still load all the same modules that I use in my default kernel.  If there
isn't such a feature, it would be really nice if there were a 'cat' command
or something along those lines so that I could read the contents of

Changes to pam_kerberosIV broke ftpd

1999-01-21 Thread Patrick Hartling
It appears that revision 1.9 of lib/libpam/modules/pam_kerberosIV/klogin.c
and revision 1.3 of lib/libpam/modules/pam_kerberosIV/pam_kerberosIV.c
broke ftpd when compiling with MAKE_KERBEROS defined.  The errors I get when
compiling with 4.0-current sources (and presumably 3.0-stable though I
haven't tried compiling that yet) cvsup'd last night at about 11:00 pm CST
are:

This could be the case for other Kerberized programs, but this is as far
as my 'make world' got.
