Re: build error when I am upgrading 'gtkhtml-1.1.10_5' to 'gtkhtml-1.1.10_6 (with attachment)

I was having all sorts of difficulties using `pkgdb -F`. possibly something else gone wrong on my machine. It was complaining of DB_PAGE_NOTFOUND? and complaining that it could not convert nil to String? Never seen it do that before. You might have wanted to include the -l flag so you would have had a log of what actually transpired. Not a big thing I guess. Be sure to run 'pkgdb -aFu' when portmanager finishes.

Japanese ISO9660/Joliet and locale = ja_JP.UTF8 problems
Hallo everyone, I have the following problems when mounting CDs/DVDs containing Japanese file names which were burned on Japanese Windows XP (SJIS, Multi-byte extended Joliet). If I mount them normally (mount -t iso9660 /cdrom), file names are garbled (ls shows ?, etc). If I mount them using mount_cd9660 -C SHIFT-JIS, and then pipe the output from ls through nkf (ls /cdrom | nkf -Sw), the file names are displayed correctly. Naturally, this work-around is not satisfying, and I would like to keep my locale set to ja_JP.UTF-8. Playing around with different locales when mounting did not work out either. Does anyone here know how to fix this?

hard drive problems
My apologies if this is wrong list. I have a Vaio PCG-9251 laptop with a Seagate Momentus 20G hard drive that has been working great with 6.1 release. I had left it powered down for about 5 weeks, then on powerup, it was booting fine until it started bringing the wireless online. I noticed that it was showing errors on ad0 but it eventually made it through all the rc stuff and got to the login. Still getting errors so I tried fsck_ufs which failed with numerous bad sectors and then eventually showed the disk detached. What I have tried: 1.) Boot with cd from 6.1 package set, create /etc/fstab on md00 with /dev/ad0 params, running fsck_ufs again. Sometimes it reads disks and gives bad sector errors, other times it just says ad0 detached and returns error codes. Sometimes it seems to be making the corrections that I am prompted to let it do, but the end reault is the disk is detached. 2.) Re-installing from the CD, but it always returns error that it couldn't write partition table to the disk. 3.) Formating with a Win98 startup disk. Always fails. 4.) Removed the drive from the machine and installed old win98 drive which works as expected. I am not finding much help in my searches for these problems, so hopefully someone here can give the clueless a clue. Is there a way to re-attach the disk? Should I just trash it and replace it or is there any hope for it? I really don't have anything important on it, but I don't want to fork out money for new one if I don't have to.

portmanager question
Hi people, as recently i have problem with firefox, i thought i will try to upgrade my port by my way... as i first run portmanager -s log to see what ports are outdated, and if that port seem critical, I will do portupgrade -R/-r to fix it. it's probably not the best, but I decided to give it a try. however, when reading portmanager output, something looks weird. e.g. .. 00106 :libcdio-0.77_1 /sysutils/libcdio MISSING .. I do have libcdio, as i checked under /var/db/pkg/, so what does this mean?? more here . 00032 have:glib-2.12.4 /devel/glib20 built with OLD dependency: icu-3.6 .. far as i know, icu3.6 is the latest, right?? thank you !!

By the way, is your soundcard driver working?

Re: Cleanly remove a package

You can use portupgrade instead, which should deinstall the old version, then install the new one. You can't install the new one before the old one, so there will be a brief period of time between the make deinstall and make reinstall that it may not be available. Also keep in mind, if you are upgrading something like mysql, you should update pkgtools.conf to restart it afterwards to minimize down time (and so you don't have to remember to restart it). You can look for the AFTERINSTALL section in pkgtools.conf for how to do this.

TIA As I've already told on www.allunix.ru, it is possible but is STRONGLY NOT RECOMMENDED to add a following line into /etc/make.conf: DISABLE_VULNERABILITIES=true This will make you able to install vulnerable ports. But again, it is VERY DANGEROUS and you should do it only in case you know what you are doing. I re-configured mplayer to install without win32-codecs port, which is much safer in this situation.

Xine fails for the same reason. Any suggestions for fixing this or getting around it? First, this should go to either the maintainers of the port in question *win32-codecs, or to ports if there is no maintainer. In this case, update win32-codecs without Quicktime and make sure that the portaudit db is up to date. It will then build. There is a vulnerability in the Quicktime codec, so as lint as it is not built (and it is not, by default, in the new version), you should have no problems. Since you were failing to build the latest version, I assume that the database is out of date or that you chose to build it with Quicktime. To change your build options, use cd /usr/ports/multimedia/win32-codecs make config. -- R. Kevin Oberman, Network Engineer Energy Sciences Network (ESnet) Ernest O.

Reading crashed SCSI disk
Hi, Last week my mail server disk crashed. I restarted the machine with spare hard disk and previous night backup, but I have no backup for the emails received during the last day. I cannot do a low level SCSI verify, it may be that all spare sectors have been reallocated. I cannot run an fsck. I am wondering if there is a way to read the physical blocks (those that are readable) and save the data, from that I could be able to rebuild some of the mailboxes.

NIC not coming up when Ethernet Cable is replugged
Hello all, i am having a strange Problem, which was more apparent under FreeBSD 5.5 and 6.0, but still happens to me under 6.1, on different machines with different NIC`s. Basically when during the day something happens to my Machines Network Connection, for example someone pulls out the Cable, when it is re-plugged in, sometimes it doesn't become active anymore. It doesn't says No Carrier under ifconfig, but the Machine cannot be pinged and also cannot ping another host. Restarting the Machine is no help.Helping is logging in as root, and issuing a ifconfig vr0 down followed by a ifconfig vr0 up. Then there is a console message saying vr0: Using force reset command. After that everything works again as usual. For some machines this is a real problem for me because they dont have Keyboard Mouse or Monitor, and i cant get in remotely.

MAC OS X connection to FreeBSD?
Greetings All, Being a long time Linux user and now looking into moving over to FreeBSD, I decided to so some research on the web to try and get a better idea as to the strengths and weaknesses as compared to other operating systems like Linux (Fedora, Gentoo, etc..), OpenBSD, NetBSD, and Opensolaris. From what I have found, FreeBSD seems to be at the very top in almost every way. In my Internet travels, I came across a site that has this MAC OS X ( which I guess is called Darwin?) at: http://developer.apple.com/opensource/index.html and have noticed that they seem to have built the MAC OS X from a core of FreeBSD 5.x. Do I read this correctly? Also, what are the differences between MAC OS X and Darwin? The reason that I ask all of this stuff is because if we were going to take a distro to start building from as a base for a project that we are working on then would it make more sense to take the latest FreeBSD 6.1 or the MAC OS X (Darwin) as the base since there has been a great amount of work on both distros and they are also both BSD based? I guess that I am still a little confused on some of these things and hope that some one can help to answer some of my newbie questions. Thanks and have a good day, Lonnie T.
