Use the '-G' flag instead to specify other groups for the user to belong to.

Re: X server remote login and sound
I'm not sure if sending uncompressed audio data over the network is such a good idea. I know that it works, but what actually happens is that you use a Windows machine to connect to a FreeBSD machine, just to send audio signals back to the Windows host (including all the graphics stuff required to display the applications windows). I'd recommend installing sshd for Xming (if it is available, I'm not familiar with Xming). Install xmms for Xming, too. Know, start your X session as usual, and afterwards ssh (back) to your Xming host. Launch XMMS... What happens is that xmms runs on the Xming machine completely (CPU time is consumed to process audio files, these are sent to the local sound device). ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

How to get the best results from FreeBSD questions. === Last update $Date: 2005/08/10 02:21:44 $ This is a regular posting to the FreeBSD questions mailing list. If you got it in answer to a message you sent, it means that the sender thinks that at least one of the following things was wrong with your message: - You left out a subject line, or the subject line was not appropriate. - You formatted it in such a way that it was difficult to read. - You asked more than one unrelated question in one message. - You sent out a message with an incorrect date, time or time zone. - You sent out the same message more than once. - You sent an 'unsubscribe' message to FreeBSD-questions. If you have done any of these things, there is a good chance that you will get more than one copy of this message from different people. Read on, and your next message will be more successful. This document is also available on the web at http://www.lemis.com/questions.html. = Contents: I:Introduction II: How to unsubscribe from FreeBSD-questions III: Should I ask -questions or -hackers? IV: How to submit a question to FreeBSD-questions V:How to answer a question to FreeBSD-questions I: Introduction === This is a regular posting aimed to help both those seeking advice from FreeBSD-questions (the newcomers), and also those who answer the questions (the hackers). Note that the term hacker has nothing to do with breaking into other people's computers. The correct term for the latter activity is cracker, but the popular press hasn't found out yet. The FreeBSD hackers disapprove strongly of cracking security, and have nothing to do with it. In the past, there has been some friction which stems from the different viewpoints of the two groups. The newcomers accused the hackers of being arrogant, stuck-up, and unhelpful, while the hackers accused the newcomers of being stupid, unable to read plain English, and expecting everything to be handed to them on a silver platter. Of course, there's an element of truth in both these claims, but for the most part these viewpoints come from a sense of frustration. In this document, I'd like to do something to relieve this frustration and help everybody get better results from FreeBSD-questions. In the following section, I recommend how to submit a question; after that, we'll look at how to answer one. II: How to unsubscribe from FreeBSD-questions == When you subscribed to FreeBSD-questions, you got a welcome message from [EMAIL PROTECTED] In this message, amongst other things, it told you how to unsubscribe. Here's a typical message: Welcome to the freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list! If you ever want to unsubscribe or change your options (eg, switch to or from digest mode, change your password, etc.), visit your subscription page at: http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/options/freebsd-questions/[EMAIL PROTECTED] (obviously, substitute your mail address for [EMAIL PROTECTED]). You can also make such adjustments via email by sending a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word 'help' in the subject or body (don't include the quotes), and you will get back a message with instructions. You must know your password to change your options (including changing the password, itself) or to unsubscribe. Normally, Mailman will remind you of your freebsd.org mailing list passwords once every month, although you can disable this if you prefer. This reminder will also include instructions on how to unsubscribe or change your account options. There is also a button on your options page that will email your current password to you. Here's the general information for the list you've subscribed to, in case you don't already have it: FREEBSD-QUESTIONS User questions This is the mailing list for questions about FreeBSD. You should not send how to questions to the technical lists unless you consider the question to be pretty technical. Normally, unsubscribing is even simpler than the message suggests: you don't need to specify your mail ID unless it is different from the one which you specified when you subscribed. If Majordomo replies and tells you (incorrectly) that you're not on the list, this may mean one of two things: 1. You have changed your mail ID since you subscribed. That's where keeping the original message from majordomo comes in handy. For example, the sample message above shows my mail ID as [EMAIL PROTECTED] Since then, I have changed it to [EMAIL PROTECTED] If I were to try to remove [EMAIL PROTECTED] from the list, it would fail: I would have to specify the name with which I joined. 2.

The Complete FreeBSD: errata and addenda
The trouble with books is that you can't update them the way you can a web page or any other online documentation. The result is that most leading edge computer books are out of date almost before they are printed. Unfortunately, The Complete FreeBSD, published by O'Reilly, is no exception. Inevitably, a number of bugs and changes have surfaced. The Complete FreeBSD has been through a total of five editions, including its predecessor Installing and Running FreeBSD. Two of these have been reprinted with corrections. I maintain a series of errata pages. Start at http://www.lemis.com/errata-4.html to find out how to get the errata information. Note also that the book has now been released for free download in PDF form. Instead of downloading the changed pages, you may prefer to download the entire book.

Terabyte_pete, or Peter Daigle as some know him, has been trolling several other mailing lists for a while (NetBSD, MozillaZine, etc.), most recently with DragonFlyBSD. He seems to be on a self-proclaimed warpath to make open-source products to work the way Microsoft's products work, and has a particularly soft spot for Windows 95. Interestingly enough, if you take a look at his company's website (and I use the word website rather loosely), www.neptuneholographics.com, he claims that the site is powered by DragonFlyBSD and Wine. It is curious that, although his business runs on OSS, he finds it entertaining to spew infantile verbal excrement at the very people who help his business run.

Apropos,
alias pls=ls -l | less

Yes, that is a limitation of aliases. Luckily, shell functions can do

freebsd on i386-type internet appliance and cf card
So, I've installed freebsd on a compact flash card sucessfully in my laptop (or so it looks - sysinstall completes to /dev/ad4, copies everything, no errors, etc) with the regular harddisk removed (for safety, of course). Only it won't boot on the internet appliance when I stick the CF in there (that's it's only supported boot device). I get the F1 - Freebsd bootloader prompt, then nothing more. I let it sit for a good 10 min, just to be sure. It's a i386 compatible processor, and people have sucessfully run at least 3 flavors of linux on it, as well as win98 from what I can glean on the net. If I restart sysinstall, I can see the partition was written, but I can't mount it from a running bsd machine - incorrect superblock, which I think has to do with the following (aka. all or dd partitions): I tried 'all three' modes of partition - create, all, and DD. Each time sysinstall completes, each time F1 - freebsd, but nothing more. Used 'auto' on the label editor - the defaults seemed reasonable... Thoughts?

nvida driver on amd64
First of all, I'm not asking for a step by step guide...just needing someone to point me in the right direction: There is a FreeBSD project un-officially named project evil which allows one to use binary drivers from Microsoft windows for network interface cards that are not natively supported. Is there a similar project or method out there for video card drivers, such that we may use Linux drivers for video cards that aren't natively supported under FreeBSD? Basically I'm looking to get an nvidia driver for an FreeBSD system on amd64, that supports openGL 2.0 hardware acceleration. So far, nvidia only supports FreeBSD on the x86. Aside from going to linux (which I really don't want to do) any suggestions on how to accomplish this? Can I use a driver compiled for x86 on an amd64 architecture perhaps?
