If you have a userland and source tree that match each other, you can
use something like this:

# cd /usr/src/bnu/usr.bin/cvs
# make cleandir  make cleandir
# make obj  make all
# make install

This should update just the CVS related binaries.  Note that the *REAL*
source of cvs is under /usr/src/contrib/cvs though.  Make sure that both
/usr/src/contrib/cvs *AND* /usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/cvs are up to date
before you try to build cvs.

changelog from 6.0-RC1 to 6.0-RELEASE

2006-02-02 Thread Nathan Vidican


Where may I find a changelog from 6.0-RC1, to 6.0-RELEASE; what has/was changed?

Reason being, I still have a box running 6.0-RC1... and as much as I would like 
to update to 6.0-RELEASE, if it ain't broke - don't fix it.

You are certainly advised to upgrade to RELENG_6_0,
because there are several security advisories which
affect RC1 and RELEASE. The upgrade process is
as seamless as it gets.

Sound and Video cards not detected at boot

2006-02-02 Thread Paul Murphy


Hardware:
   Realtek High Definition Audio (integrated on mobo, ACL 880 I think)
Windows XP says 'Location 65535 (Internal High Definition Audio Bus)'

   Radeon X1600
Windows XP says 'PCI bus 1, device 0, function 0'


Dmesg only shows the standard 'VGA' for video, and nothing for sound.

I have tried compiling all the sound drivers in the kernel, as well as load 
sound.ko and snd_driver.ko as modules (without drivers in kernel).


dmesg, uname, pciconf and .asl output can be found at

Re: Compaq Proliant DL360 Quantum DLT4000 Tape Drive

2006-02-02 Thread Alex Zbyslaw


RA Cohen wrote:


Hi All,

I'm re-posting and re-framing this problem somewhat...

I'm running several Compaq Proliant DL360 servers, all with FBSD
6.0-RELEASE.

One of these has an internal Quantum DLT 4000 (that's how the
BIOS identifies it -- I am seeing the drive ID'd by the BIOS as
the machine boots) tape drive. I need to use it, but can find
no evidence of this hardware in the dmesg output. I've googled
around and really all I can locate are references to CAM, the
aacp driver compiled in the kernel, and device.hints. Can
someone put this all together for me? I'm not a newbie, have
compiled many kernels and worlds, and have been a FBSD user for
several years.
 

You're starting to sound a little desperate!  If you don't receive any 
better informed responses, then maybe this will help.


Disclaimer: I know nothing about Compaq Proliant DL360 servers, and hope 
fervently never to be associated with anything that has Compaq in it's name.


Since the IDA hardware that this tape drive is attached to is basically 
some kind of RAID, perhaps either it, or it's FreeBSD driver simply does 
not support tape drives.


The ida0 message in your dmesg, certainly says 0 drives, whereas ida1 is 
reporting 2 logical drives.  That, to me, means that either the card or 
the driver is just not seeing the tape drive, and it's possible that no 
hint or kernel option will change that.


When you say that the tape is reported by the BIOS, I assume that this 
is a BIOS specifically for the IDA controller.  If not, and it has a 
BIOS you can do things in, then have a look in there.  This is probably 
what you've done already... But if there are any config options, play 
with them.


If that fails, the there are two more things to try:

   1) Look through the source code and see if you can find any 
reference to the driver recognising tape drives.  This might not be easy :-(


   2) Email the authors of the ida drivers and see if the driver does 
support tapes.  The man page on 5.4 talks a lot about disks and not at 
all about tapes, but that might be misleading.


If both of those fail, then you may need to get an add on, bog standard 
SCSI card that's supported by FreeBSD.  Something like the cheapest 
Adaptec which will drive the tape at full speed.


--Alex

PS I assume there's nothing obvious like termination causing the problem.

PPS A quick google for freebsd ida tape drive did have two relevant 
hits (the first two) but they didn't help me much since the 
conversations seemed to start half way through.  However, one is from 
one of the driver developers, and does suggest a cheap Adaptec card :-)

How do I download an older version of PDF Handbook

2006-02-02 Thread Eric Schultz


Good afternoon...

I don't have access to my FBSD machine right now, only my WinXP machine; 
and I'd like to get an older version of the Handbook that matches my 
FBSD machine (4.7, but lets say 4-STABLE).  I've Googled, Gmaned, 
visited the ftp site and browed the CVS web interface (thinking I might 
find RELENG_4 SGML source) without any success.


I would prefer a PDF version but I suppose I could follow the steps to 
generate one from the SGML ('cept I have to be able to get the SGML 
version from my WinXP box).


Thanks.

Neither.  It has never been part of the base system, but is available
In the ports system as sysutils/screen.  It is not available as a

Now that I have my sound card working, I was wondering if there is a

The live streams from http://www.wzbc.org send me PLS files, which

that can play this streaming format?

I installed XMMS, but I'm not really sure if there is a plugin for

PLS-files are usually only normal text files containing a playlist of
music files or URLs to media streams. All you need to do is open the
PLS-file and write down the URL. mplayer, vlc or xmms should all be able
to play the music stream.

Andreas


If you want to use pls files with XMMS, download them first to a
directory with fetch/wget or your browser, then in the lower left corner
of XMMS, click the + FILE button and browse to the pls file.
Unfortunately with XMMS you can't just put the pls file into Add URL
like in Winamp.


Thanks, this seems to be opening up the stream in XMMS (I'm getting the info
for the radio station), but I'm not getting any sound.  I get sound just fine
if I play an audio CD using xmms. Any ideas why sound wouldn't come out when
playing streaming audio?

 /usr/obj should just be your temporary build directory from

Running custom command via Nagios

I am trying a sendmail script to allow me to send messages via an
off-the-box SMTP server while monitoring Amavisd-new. So if Amavis does
go down, I'll still get the message. I even made a simple little shell
script that writes to a file and that doesn't work either.

How can I run this script in the same context as Nagios to test from the
commandline?

Re: DNS nslint error messages

2006-02-02 Thread Brad Gilmer

Thanks Chuck and Gorgios for all your help.  I was able to resolve all of my 
problems with BIND and nslint.

For the archives, I am running FreeBSD 5.4 RELEASE on an IBM 330 e-series 
server.  I was getting numerous error messages when running nslint. The biggest 
problems were:
1) I have never configured BIND before, so this is all new stuff to me. 
Numerous errors from being a newbie in this area.

2) The FreeBSD distribution of BIND leaves some critical things out in the 
default installation (to be fair, maybe they are left out of all BIND9 
installations - but maybe the FreeBSD community can do better than the 
original!).  For example, there is no note in the /etc/namedb/named.conf file 
that you should add a 'localhost' zone.  I am sure I will never forget this now 
that I have spent the better part of a week figuring it out, but it would be 
helpful if the sample named.conf included it.

3) The IPv6 stuff is turned on in named.conf by default, but I am not using 
IPv6 at all.  So it never occurred to me that complaints from nslint such as...

nslint: missing a: localhost.org. - 0.0.0.1

were being generated because of a bogus error in the default file 
/etc/namedb/master/host-v6.rev.  In frustration I finally did a grep for 
0.0.0.1, and there it was in this file.  I fixed it by commenting out the IPv6 
stuff in /etc/namedb/named.conf.

4) For other newbies, be aware that localhost. and localhost.EXAMPLE.COM are 
two different things.  In my system I specifically point both of them to 
127.0.0.1, which results in this complaint from nslint...

nslint: 127.0.0.1 in use by localhost.EXAMPLE.COM. and localhost.

but it seems that this error is okay.  nslint is just telling you that you have 
two things pointing to the same IP address.

5) One more newbie comment - be sure to check /var/log/messages for errors.  
nslint does not catch everything.  If you are pounding away making numerous 
changes, you can quickly check for log error messages by entering...

# rndc reload

This will cause BIND to re-read the zone files.

6) And one last thing - be sure to increment the serial number on the zone 
files to ensure that the new data is loaded.

You can also add this to /etc/rc.conf:

named_flags= -d 4 (or pick a number you like)

which will start bind with the debug switch on and generate a great deal of 
traffic to your logs.  Or you can do this:


named_flags= -d 4 -g, and rather than logging the traffic, bind will 
print it to stderr (your screen), and you can watch it as it runs.

Re: Unable to compile mysql50-server

 Yesterday I ran portinstall to install the mysql-server, left the job going

 gotten compiled, so rather than run portinstall again I went back to the
 mysql50-server directory and ran make, since the configuration files were
 already there. This time I got:

 After a couple of minutes my console started filling up with

You don't say which version of FreeBSD (indeed, not even if you're
using FreeBSD).  Normally this is a hardware error.  The disk with the
swap partition may be dying.  It definitely doesn't have anything
directly to do with MySQL.

When I went to configure Xorg, I could not get my mousepad to work.  I was
just wondering if there are any drivers or packages I need to download to
get my synaptic mousepad working.  I couldn't find anything on the mailing

Cracking MySQL Passwords

2006-02-02 Thread Drew Tomlinson

I'm frantically trying to recreate 3 users in the mysql.user table after 
accidentally deleting them.  I have the names and the password hashes 
but don't know the password.  I installed the security/john port but it 
does not seem to support mysql cracking.  Google searches have revealed 
patches to include this function.  Is there some way to add these from 
within the ports system or is it time to learn how to build by hand?  Or 
is there a better way to crack these mysql passwords?


Thanks,

Drew

Re: portupgrade xorg-* - mouse-wheel stops working under X

 I am using rawhide (fedora core development).  They just updated to xorg 7

 final and I was hoping that my mouse problem would be fixed, but it
wasn't.
 I have a 5 button + scrollwheel mouse (MS intellimouse explorer).  I want
 to use the side buttons.  In xorg 6.8 it worked great, but in 7 it does
not
 work.  Here is the mouse part of my xorg.conf:

 Section InputDevice
   Identifier Mouse0
   Driver mouse
   Option Protocol ExplorerPS/2
   Option Device /dev/input/mice
   Option Buttons 7
   Option Emulate3Buttons no
   Option ZAxisMapping 6 7
 EndSection

 I also have this file called mouse.sh in /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d/
 #!/bin/sh
 # /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d/mouse
 # Required for the configuration of a 5-button mouse
 xmodmap -e pointer = 1 2 3 6 7 4 5

No longer required, actually harmfull now.

man mouse (default was wrong, have commited that now):

   Option ButtonMapping N1 N2 [...]
  Specifies how physical mouse buttons are mapped to logical
 but-
  tons.   Physcial button 1 is mapped to logical button N1,
physi-
  cal button 2 to N2, and so forth.  This enables the use of
phys-
  icalbuttonsthatareobscuredby
ZAxisMapping.
  Default: 1 2 3 8 9 10 

So if you want to get buttons events 6 and 7 with physical buttons 4 and 5
you want
Option Buttons 5
Option ZAxisMapping 4 5
Option ButtonMapping 1 2 3 6 7

But as mice with two wheels are getting more available now, applications
might be configured to use buttons 6 and 7 for horizontal scrolling
soon. You might want to use the default configuration and configure
applications to use buttons 8 and 9 for button actions.

Though it is largely undecided right now whether the default like it is
now is a good idea, or whether other buttons should be reserved for the
secondary wheel.

 If I run mouse.sh I get this:
 xmodmap:  commandline:1:  bad number of buttons, must have 11 instead of 7
 xmodmap:  1 error encountered, aborting.

This is because due to default ButtonMapping you get 4 more buttons than
configured. But you don't want to use xmodmap any more.

 I was run xorg7 rc something and there was a discussion about the number
of
 buttons being hard coded or something like that the point is this is/was a

 known problem.  I can't find the thread now that I need it.

No. Different thing.

Attention: Garrett Cooper (Was: SSH with Public Key Authentication)

On Feb 1, 2006, at 9:16 PM, david bryce wrote:

 It looks like someone has installed the ssh2 package on this machine
 (using pkg_add -r ssh2). So this is not a standard freebsd ssh
 installation. In fact, testing on another box with freebsd 6, I
 can connect with Putty using public key authentication. Does
 anyone know how to get the standard ssh to work on this machine
 without upsetting things too much? It is currently running a
 mail server and cvs, so I'm ginger about doing anything radical
 on it. Doing a ps -ax shows that it's sshd2 that is running, and
 not sshd. But the binaries ARE there for sshd. Except the
 hostkey doesn't seem to be there. Could fixing this be as simple
 as creating a hostkey for sshd as well, and running it on a
 different port than sshd2 is running on?

Hi All,

We finally got everything to work using sshd2 (the other option
was to remove sshd2 and use sshd, but we got sshd2 to work). All
we had to do was generate the key on the server instead of using
puttygen (with ssh-keygen2), then put a line pointing to the
public key in the .ssh2/authorization file. Then we copied the
private key to the windows boxes, opened it in puttygen and
saved it again (to convert it to putty's format), put it in pagent,
and everything works! 

Regarding the previous thread about CVS: CVS imports now work
perfectly (using the CVSUMASK, which now works because we're
using SSH instead of pserver connections).

Thank you very much to everyone who helped us getting this to 
work! This mailing list is terrific, and you guys are great! 
Thanks!

Re: freebsd without keyboard

2006-02-02 Thread luke


 I found the information on this page:

that page refers to freebsd 4.x and you are running 5.x

But looked at my kernel (5.4-stable):

 device  atkbdc  # AT keyboard
 controller
 device  atkbd   # AT keyboard
 device  psm # PS/2 mouse


if you want to run the machine without a keyboard at all your setup will
work. just be
sure to tell the bios not to report keyboard errors. otherwise it will
freeze at a message
from your bios telling you it can't find a keyboard. i'm not sure about
hotswapping
keyboards in 5.x but i assume it works. the safest thing to do is just never
plug a keyboard
in.

Just use that by default, and limit reply (to the author only) for

Parv is also right that manually editing the subject to add Attention

Re: Need Advice re SCSI

2006-02-02 Thread je killen

Regarding this e-mail message posted a few days ago (see except below 
*), to which there's been no reply as yet.
Good news. The lack of response was very intuitive. I solved a major 
problem. The LSI Logic
adapter card I'm using has two internal connectors for two separate 
buses. I switched the
ribbon cable to which the two drives are connected to the other 
connector on the card and
now the drives are coming up. I won't try to explain why 'cause I have 
no idea (accept maybe slot

mismatch only allows one connector to be used).
Looking at the boot messages something about it suggested to me that 
the system was trying to find

something on mpt1 (the other bus connector on the card).
I hope this will be useful for someone in the future as a possible fix 
for a similar problem.


*Hello all;
I have installed an LSI Logic SCSI adapter card and have attached to it 
two 18GB Maxtor 15k SCSI hard drives.
These drives are 80 pin drives and I have obtained adapter boards to 
convert the 80 pin connectors to 68 pin ribbon
cable for connection to the SCSI adapter (these adapters are from 
Cables To Go). This adapter is made for a 64 bit PCI slot. I only have 
32 bit PCI slots. I was told via tech support response e-mail from LSI 
Logic that I could use the adapter card in 32 bit slots but with 
reduced performance. About an inch of the card connector tab hangs off 
the end of the PCI slot.


The following has been culled from dmesg.boot,  /var/log/messages, and 
transcribed from shutdown messages:

mpt1: Unhandled Event Notify Frame. Event 0x6149.

The operating system has hatled.
Press any key to reboot.

Perhaps it would take an engineer to look at this and give me advice 
but;
There is no entry for any da device indicating that the drives are not 
detected

but the adapter is.
Drives start up with a clattering sound (somewhat like the sound I 
associate with
roulette wheels...um...dicey?) and it's unclear if they are in fact 
running.
I am using FreeBSD v6.0 on Elite Group ECS 755 A2 motherboard with 
AMD64 (slot 754).
I need to be able to format and partition these drives for use which 
means they have to show up.
I have taken some time to try to track down a source of motherboards 
with 64 bit PCI slots

and don't have any data to go on as yet.
Sorry, I'm a little too bewildered to ask specific questions but any 
info and advice would

be appreciated.

Thanks in advance
Jeff K

Any idea when Xorg 7.0's coming to FBSD?

   Just tried out Xorg 7.0 on my Gentoo box and it appears to render a 
lot better than the 6.8 tree did. So, I was wondering if there was any 
approximate timeframe mentioned anywhere where Xorg 7.0 may be coming to 
FreeBSD =)?

An Easier Way to Play CD's.

2006-02-02 Thread Payne


Hey Guys,

I have a question. Is there a way to get cd to play with XMMS, I can 
only get them to play in VLC, but on track at a time. If there are any 
cool audio cd players let me know.


By the way 6.0 ROCKS!!!

AFAIK xorg 7.0 is functionally identical to 6.9, which is already in
ports.

abw to pdf problem

2006-02-02 Thread Peter

I have a tiny shell script that I use to convert abiword documents to pdf
format and then open the new file using xpdf:

=
#!/bin/sh
abiword --print /tmp/$1.ps $1.abw
ps2pdf /tmp/$1.ps $1.pdf
xpdf $1.pdfing box in Type 3 glyph
=

Ever since upgrading my ports I am getting strange errors when xpdf opens
a file thus created:

Error: Bad bounding box in Type 3 glyph
Error: Bad bounding box in Type 3 glyph
Error: Bad bounding box in Type 3 glyph
Error: Bad bounding box in Type 3 glyph
Error: Bad bounding box in Type 3 glyph
Error: Bad bounding box in Type 3 glyph
Error: Bad bounding box in Type 3 glyph
Error: Bad bounding box in Type 3 glyph
Error: Bad bounding box in Type 3 glyph
Error: Bad bounding box in Type 3 glyph
Error: Bad bounding box in Type 3 glyph
Error: Bad bounding box in Type 3 glyph

The document looks ok to my eyes.  I rummaged around the net and I have
found a similar problem and it seems it is a ghostscript issue.  Indeed, I
did change around my ghostscript ports (ghostscript-afpl to
ghostscript-gnu) because that is what portmanager suggested.  Should I try
to go back?  Comments?  Running 5.4 stable here.

There are some ports in audio categories; workman is the one i like
due to large small enough dependencies and generally simple enough
interface.

I don't know if xmms can play a CD; many eons ago i tried to play a
CD via xmms on FreeBSD [34].x which resulted in machine lockup.

Erm, unless 6.9 is modular (which I didn't think was the case), there 
should be a noticeable difference.
