Mounting DVD, Gnome 2.12 Browse CD and play content
Hi All,
===
problem 1
===
I have been using FreeBSD as a desktop system for about 2 years now.
Started on 4.x... as of last night, I'm now running 6 stable #2.
I've noticed over the years, that dvd, has at one point worked, then it
stopped working, then it worked, then it stopped working, etc.
I'm not really sure what I am doing wrong... so I thought I would ask on
this list.
If I play a dvd with mplayer dvd://1 it works fine.
If I play a dvd with totem dvd://1 it worked fine up until tonight
(gstreamer error, not concerned about this right now because I just
upgraded and have not had a chance to see what might be wrong).
However, if I run totem and try to play a dvd using PLAY DVD, it fails
horribly. The error I get is:
Failed to retrieve capabilities of device /dev/cd0: Inappropriate ioctl
for device
I have a sony dvd rw dw-d22a drive.
cam is properly configured.
permissions and mounting if devfs and fstab are set, my account is in
the cdrom group (permission).
k3b will burn, and copy discs just fine.
mplayer will play discs (minus the menu).
I have tried to recompile totem with acd0, dvd, etc... as the DVD
device, but it seems to ignore what I enter as a device to use and
defaults back to cd0 (which should be fine I would think).
Any help would be appreciated.
===
problem 2
===
I attempted to mount a windows game (on dvd) the other day. I wanted to
grab some files from the disc to play with in BSD.
when clicking the dvd icon under computer (name I gave my drive). It
comes back and says it can't mount the disc. I am able to get a
directory of the disc if I mount it with UDF, but I am unable to copy or
look at the files.
Oddly enough, I can mount a dvd movie and see the contents of the drive
just fine.
/dev/cd0 /usr/home/{homedir}/DVD cd9660 ro,noauto 0
I attempted to read a windows data dvd that I had burned a few month
earlier and noticed I was not able to mount this disc anymore. I was
able to mount it in the past (I fairly sure).
===
problem 3
===
this is not really a problem, but more me not understanding what I am
doing. I read on the gnome 2.12 new features list that you can now
double click audio tracks on an audio cd, and have them play:
/
Nautilus is now more tightly integrated with the multimedia tasks you
want to do. In addition to the thumbnailing of video and previewing of
audio in past releases, Nautilus now offers drag and drop capabilities
from audio CDs and the ability to play a track simply by double clicking.
/How do you do this? When I try to mount an audio cd (which is what I
would assume you would have to do to get a list of its tracks), it fails.
Sorry for the long winded post. It's my first post, and would love to
get these problems ironed out.

Well I hate to be flippant, but there you have it, problem solved. I have been doing PC work professionally for over 10 years and unprofessionally for at least 10-15 years before that, and ever since the IDE interface was invented I've had to deal with incompatibilties between the controller and the hard disk. Back in the days that the IDE controller chip was on a paddle card I used to have a box of them and when running into a problem like your doing, I would swap the cards until I got a good combo. This was all ISA stuff of course. Once the PCI came out and they started putting the controller on motherboard, they only way around these problems is to play musical chairs with the disk drives. And all this was long before FreeBSD, let alone Linux, was even a gleam in someone's eye. Your 40GB Maxtor has some moronic timing incompatibility with the IDE chipset that the FreeBSD driver in 5.4/6.0 happens to tickle, there's nothing you can do about it. Use your 80GB disk for the FreeBSD system or go find some other brand of motherboard for your 40GB disk, and things will work fine.

However, before I bought the 80GB disk, I used to run 4.6 on the Maxtor 40GB, with no problems. Furthernore, this disk and MB will still run Ubuntu and Fedora, so it seems that later FreeBSD releases are more sensitive, or drive the hardware a bit harder. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thanks for the help - you seem to be correct, Ted. I bought a second Western Digital 80GB disk, and 5.4 installs on this with no problem. The case for the 40 GB Maxtor seems a little odd - it works fine with Ubuntu, the Redmond product, and Fedora Core 3. I even switched it to PIO-only mode, and then 5.4 can be installed - but, as expected, it is very slow - 25 seconds to load KPresenter, for example. Not too useful. It also worked with an earlier FreeBSD, version 4.7 and before. So does FreeBSD drives disks a bit harder than other OSes, and is it still in spec? I think the issue is that you have to view the computer as a true merger of hardware and software, not simply a hardware platform that software happens to be running on. With the FreeBSD OS (and in any OS) there's many abstractive layers to try to decouple as much of the code as possible from the hardware. For example you do not want your network card shutting down just because a particular usermode app runs, that is why the OS prohibits those apps from doing so. But, despite all this what it all boils down to is the CPU of the motherboard is just executing a long
NFS Installation Issues
Hi Having used AIX for about twenty years and Linux for nearly ten, I have decided to start exploring the possibilities of FreeBSD and have just downloaded the ISOs for Version 6/i386. I have attempted to do an install from CD, but am getting failures on quite a few files - possibly because I only had yucky CDRWs to put my ISOs on and the CD drive in the machine is quite old. So, I decided to copy the CD to a directory on another machine, make an NFS share (which works - I checked it from yet another machine), and just use the CD to boot. My problem is that when I select the installation source, Ethernet is not amongst the options (just SLIP, PPP and something else weird). I assume that there's a kernel module not loaded, so after looking further through the documentation, I found that I should be able to put a line in /boot/defaults/loader.conf. Since the installation so far was actually bootable (that's one up on Linux!), I did this. All this did for me was to generate a warning that the module was already loaded. What am I missing? Nowhere, when booting from the first CD, do I get an opportunity to tell it about my network device, although it will ask for all the usual networking details. I'm sure that there must be something quite simple, but is not obvious from the documentation.

On Sat, 5 Nov 2005, Steve Bertrand wrote: It appears as though everything is in order. The routes are in place, IP/SN is all correct etc. You are going to have to take a step down now to the lower layers of the network stack. Perform this command while plugged into the network and let it run a while: # tcpdump -n -i pcn0 What this will do is see if the nic can see traffic coming from other machines. Throw some pings at it from another box, and even if the other box doesn't get a reply, tcpdump will tell you if the nic can at least see the incoming traffic. Also, run tcpdump on another box, and repeat the process, but ping from the box with the 'bad' nic in it. Perhaps it can send traffic, but just not receive. Doing this both ways will indicate either way and may give you a clue. No indication of activity either way - 'tcpdump' on the affected machine sees no packets from elsewhere, 'tcpdump' on a working machine sees tons of packets, but none from this machine. Further that, even farther down, try a different cable and switch port (one at a time). I know that may seem silly, but weirder things have happened. Yes, I know... tried swapping cables/hub ports, no change. If all of that fails, due to the fact there is a driver loaded for the device, and it is taking all of it's parameters ok, I would say slap a new nic in the box and see if you can rx/tx traffic via it. If you can, I'd say then there is a problem with the nic itself, and you have confirmed it logically and completely. Well, that may take a few days, until I scrounge up an extra NIC... but thanks for the assistance.

after that old_records will contain records present in old

records present in new file, but not old one.
Note, that the difference must be kept in RAM, so it
won't work if there are multi-gig diffs, but it will work
very fast if the diffs are only 10-100Mb, it will work at
close to I/O speed if the diff is under 10Mb.
If the records can be ordered in a known order (e.g.
alphabetically), we don't need to keep anything in
RAM then and make any checks at all. Let's
assume an ascending order (1-2-5-7-31-...):
while (there are more records) {
a = read (line from old file)
b = read (line from new file)
while (a b) {
if (a b) then {
write a to old_records
read next a
}
if (a b) then {
write b to new_records
read next b
}
}
}
If course, you've got to add some checks to
deal with EOF correctly.

Well, that may take a few days, until I scrounge up an extra NIC... but thanks for the assistance. At least I know I was going about the testing the right way. Good stuff. However, there is one more test you can do (if possible). If the 'bad' NIC can be removed from the affected box, if it's not imbedded in the MB, then you can try putting it in another box, just to eliminate the very, very slight possibility this is a computer issue, and not a NIC issue.

LDM (Windows Dynamic Disks) in FreeBSD?
Hi, I think I've found the answer to my question already, but I wanted to be 100% sure. Can I read Window Dynamic Disk volumes from within FreeBSD? More precisely RAID-5 volume across multiple disks. I've googled and googled and I think the answer is no. The linux-ntfs project has a tool that can display information about the volume but the file system driver isn't fully developed yet. If there is no LDM support in FreeBSD, I think I'm going to port the userland linux-ntfs ldminfo tool to FreeBSD, however I have a quick question about GPL. If I port the code then obviously my version will have to be under the GPL. I was wondering how this impacts the BSD licence? I presume users of FreeBSD can happily use this tool, and hopefully one day it would be allowed in ports. But say I extended this tool into a file system driver (which I know is a big leap) would this code ever be considered for the Kernel, or would I have to code from scratch to avoid the GPL restrictions?

Re: 5.4 Generic Kernel - da and scbus...I'm at a loss
I am a newbie to kernel related things. I'm running 5.4 using the generic kernel. I am problems with using an iPod via USB, and it seems that I may not have device support for sa and scbus in my kernel. I have been searching for a few hours this evening using various criteria and am still unable to get past this issue. It seems like the failure is that a device node /dev/da* for the umass drive isn't be created. Any help would be appreciated. I am going to try booting the 6.0 kernel off CD next and then go from there. I had the same problem with a nano. I had many difficulties to find a way to solve it too. Finally this link helped me http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-usb/2005-September/001534.html I patched /usr/src/sys/dev/usb/usb_subr.c as described, compiled my kernel again and it works...

how to setup DNS server and making sub-domains in DSL server
Hi, I need your help please. On my personal FreeBSD server connected to an ISP with static IP address, I'm planning to setup several websites with their own sub-domains from my main domain as shown below. I just want to know some answers to my questions before I start. Main domain: www.exampledomain.ph http://www.exampledomain.ph Sub-domains: sub1.exampledomain.ph http://sub1.exampledomain.ph sub2.exampledomain.ph http://sub2.exampledomain.ph sub3.exampledomain.ph http://sub3.exampledomain.ph I want to use BIND together with my Apache virtual hosting in one single FreeBSD machine. These are my questions: 1) Is it correct that I only need to register or pay for the main domain? 2) Is it correct that through my local DNS server, I can add sub hosts (sub1 to sub3) without anymore registering those sub domains and pay for them in my main domain provider? 3) Provided that I already have successfully setup my local DNS server, Apache virtual hosting and main domain activated, is it straightforward that I can already access the sub domains (i.e., websites) from the Internet? 4) Do I need to register sub1, sub2 and sub3 in any external domain provider? 5) Can you provide some sample configs if you are already doing this setup?

Yes, provided you choose a registrar who will allow you to change the namservers on the daomin - i.e. they don't force you to use their nameservers in conjunction with a web hosting package or something (123-reg.co.uk will definitely work as I use them for a similar setup to the one you describe). 2) Is it correct that through my local DNS server, I can add sub hosts (sub1 to sub3) without anymore registering those sub domains and pay for them in my main domain provider? That's correct. Adding a subdomain is generally a case of adding one line to the zone file for that particular domain (assuming you're just adding a simple subdomain that isn't going to be delegated or receive mail or anything comlicated like that) and telling Bind to reload the zone file (/etc/rc.d/named reload will usually work, although I find I often have to use restart instead of reload for some reason). 3) Provided that I already have successfully setup my local DNS server, Apache virtual hosting and main domain activated, is it straightforward that I can already access the sub domains (i.e., websites) from the Internet? Assuming you're not behind a firewall of any type (or you setup the relevant rules), then it should be fairly simple to make everything accessible from the rest of the Internet. If your main domain works, then any subdomains on the same machine should do as well. 4) Do I need to register sub1, sub2 and sub3 in any external domain provider? No, you'd just tell your registrar to change the nameservers to whatever your local DNS servers are. Most will have a control panel allowing you to do this easily. 5) Can you provide some sample configs if you are already doing this setup? Thank you in advance! What kind of sample config? If you're not doing anything special, any tutorial on DNS/Bind will show you how to setup subdomains.

Re: NFS Installation Issues
snip My problem is that when I select the installation source, Ethernet is not amongst the options (just SLIP, PPP and something else weird). That something weird could well be the ethernet card. unlike Linux, the ethernet devices are not all named ethX', but are named after the driver. So it could be e.g. sk0, xl0, dc0, de0, fxp0, vr0 etc. I assume that there's a kernel module not loaded, so after looking further through the documentation, I found that I should be able to put a line in /boot/defaults/loader.conf. Since the installation so far was actually bootable (that's one up on Linux!), I did this. All this did for me was to generate a warning that the module was already loaded. Then try to use the something weird as the ethernet device. Thanks for that Roland - I've had another look, but the something weird is PLIP, which I believe to be some parallel port communication system. So, my real question remains: how does one get a network card recognised? One piece of documentation refers to kernel configuration as part of the installation process - I don't know if that's for an older version, because this step certainly doesn't show up on mine.

Move the tree then make a symlink from /usr/ports to your new dir. That's guaranteed to work. You could also try just moving the distfiles subdir and symlinking it, since that really takes the space (apart from building). Without knowing how little space you have, it's hard to know if that will be good enough. Just changing the ENV in pkgtools.conf will only work for tools which use it, which I don't think includes portsnap. You'd want to set it in your root shell for everything to see it. Or, for the larger ports just make with WRKDIRPREFIX set to somewhere with lots of space. You can set that is pkgtools.conf per port, assuming you use portupgrade or in make.conf, for every port to use it. I don't like that as for some ports I sometimes need to keep the work subdir hanging around.

What I really need is an expression which will ls all files found which have a mod. date/time of more than a certain number of days from today, but that are *not* in the Volumes directory, i.e., only those results which exist on the startup volume. Is there a way to do this? Thanks :) All My Best, Jeffrey ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Move the tree then make a symlink from /usr/ports to your new dir. That's guaranteed to work. You could also try just moving the distfiles subdir and symlinking it, since that really takes the space (apart from building). Without knowing how little space you have, it's hard to know if that will be good enough. Just changing the ENV in pkgtools.conf will only work for tools which use it, which I don't think includes portsnap. You'd want to set it in your root shell for everything to see it. Or, for the larger ports just make with WRKDIRPREFIX set to somewhere with lots of space. You can set that is pkgtools.conf per port, assuming you use portupgrade or in make.conf, for every port to use it. I don't like that as for some ports I sometimes need to keep the work subdir hanging around. See man ports! --Alex that symbolic link trick works wonders.

Re: NFS Installation Issues
So, my real question remains: how does one get a network card
recognised?
You don't have to. The GENERIC kernel comes with all network card
drivers built as modules. If FreeBSD has a driver for your network
chip/card, it should show up.
It's a generic PCI card based on the Realtek 8139C - the hardware file
on CD1 suggests that this is supported. Motherboard is an old Gigabyte
GA71XE4 with an AMD Duron 850.
If it doesn't, make sure that it's not disabled in the BIOS and that the
cable is actually connected to the hub/router.
The card and connection certainly work - this box is normally a Linux
machine, but currently has a 2.5 hard disc in so that I can get FreeBSD
installed and then transfer to an old ThinkPad. Light showing all OK
on Ethernet switch.
I can't see anything in the BIOS (AMIBIOS) that should be stopping it
other than PnP OS Installed=No. (This doesn't affect operation under
Linux.)
If none of that works, try to give us some details about the
chip/card. Make and model if possible.
The big worry is that Ethernet doesn't even come up as an option. Think
I'll try a card with a different chipset and see if that helps any.
I've just had a look through /var/log/messages and have spotted some
lines that may be relevant:
{timestamp} kernel: re0: couldn't map ports/memory
{timestamp} kernel: rl0: couldn't map ports/memory
{timestamp} kernel: pci0: network, ethernet at device 8.0 (no driver
attached)

6.0 panics on boot
I have a computer that has been running FreeBSD 4.X and 5.X without problems. It runs 5.4 with no problems at all. This system has an Intel 845 Motherboard and chipset, Intel Pentium 4 1.6 GHz CPU, 1 GB RAM, NVidea GEForce MX/MX 400 video card, atapi CD-RW, IDE hard drive, standard floppy. Nothing very exotic in this hardware. I tried first to cvsup to 6.0, and rebuild everything. The build was fine including a custom kernel, but when I tried to boot the new 6.0, I got a panic, Fatal trap 12, page fault at the NVidea driver in the boot. So I re-booted the kernel.old, reverted my sources to 5.4 and rebuilt the system all again. As the system rebuilt I downloaded and burned the ISO 6.0 image. I tried to boot the ISO image and do a binary upgrade. The CD booted 6.0 fine, and the upgrade installed with only one error that the X.org was already present. When I tried to boot the new 6.0 GENERIC kernel that was installed, I got the same panic/page fault error I had when I updated via cvsup. But since the same GENERIC kernel boots fine from CD I suspect there may be some loader options I might need? I'd appreciate any help with getting 6.0 to boot without the panic.

Well, the second line there, referencing rl0 is indeed the Realtek
driver for the network card. The error, on the other hand, is
something I'm not familiar with.
Reading through the archives, I see the following link:

My card started working when i disabled ACPI.

Hmm - thanks for the suggestion, I should have tried this; every time
I've had ACPI enabled under Linux, it has broken something. However, I
have just tried booting with ACPI disabled with the FreeBSD boot disk
and the minimal installation that managed to get on my hard disk - the
result is that FreeBSD cannot find any drives! So, worth a try, but not
the solution.
Furthermore, I have now tried swapping the Realtek card for a D-Link
(DFE530TX) one. The problem persists...
Just a minor point - is 6 actually a stable version? I was wondering
whether I've gone and picked up a development version when I should have
been using 5.something.

Re: 6.0 panics on boot

When I tried to boot the new 6.0 GENERIC kernel that was installed, I got the same panic/page fault error I had when I updated via cvsup. But since the same GENERIC kernel boots fine from CD I suspect there may be some loader options I might need? I'd appreciate any help with getting 6.0 to boot without the panic. Thanks Hi Derek, You probably just have to stop the nvidia driver from loading by specifying unset nvidia_load at the boot prompt and reinstall the nvidia driver once the system is booted. That's what I did at least, and I have had no problems while I've heard from other people that didn't disable and rebuilt their nvidia drivers that they also got panics on boot. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I (hopefully correctly) assumed you were using NVIDIA's own native drivers for FreeBSD as a loadable module (from the x11/nvidia-driver port), if so, then after booting without the nvidia module loaded, a portupgrade -f nvidia-driver should do the trick (or pkg_delete nvidia-driver cd /usr/ports/x11/nvidia-driver make install clean). But just in case, this is how I upgraded my system; I deleted all the ports/packages I had installed (since they have to be rebuilt for 6.0 anyway) with pkg_delete -a, cvsupped ports and the RELENG_6_0 sources, rebuilt the kernel/world, commented out any third party modules (including nvidia) in /boot/loader.conf, rebooted and installed all the packages (including x11/nvidia-driver) I needed, and that's basically it. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
