Pressing CTRL-ALT-SPACE on usb keyboard freezes FreeBSD
Hi all, This is a very weird symptom, noticed today for the first time. I have a cheap Microsoft wireless keybaord with USB connection, on one FreeBSD 6.2 release machine that acts as a lightweight server / occasional desktop. While in the console (no X running) I accidentally pressed CTRL-ALT-SPACE, received a message about USB controller error (sadly cannot remember exactly) and the machine froze completely. Tried from another machine but to no avail, it was completely frozen. After restart I tried it a second time, again same results. Changed some bios settings (disabled legacy USB support, that was actually the only option for USB besides disabling it completely) and checked a third time, still the same. Now I know this has something to do with the USB but the motherboard is not faulty. I don't know if it has to do with the particular keyboard (A Microsoft conspiracy to bring the CTRL-ALT-DEL equivalent to FreeBSD ? :) ) but was wondering if anyone else has had a similar problem (or is brave enough to try...). I should also note that after pressing CTRL-ALT-SPACE the green power led of the machine started blinking (like sometimes motherboards do when entering standby or something, only there is no option for this in BIOS). Motherboard is a cheap but brand new ASROCK 478-based P4 motherboard.

Network Problem in FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE-p5
Hi, I have a serious problem with my network. I have connected 2 PC's, 1 - FreeBSD, 2 - Windows XP. The problem is follow - My FreeBSD limmiting connections , I cannot open more 224 TCP4-Sockets in my Windows Box. When I downloading torrent file, I cannot create more connections to the web, and while this time I can't open for example - web sites. Tow problem who worry myself is when I scan a my freebsd box or other server for open ports its FAKE show me: 81 82 ,83 ,465,463 and other ports open.. but It's FAKE .. it's not really open.. I Cleared my sysctl, and test, cleared my firewall and test, re-build my kernel with any options changed and test again.. Just don't Work :(( I have use PF firewall and FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE-p5. I Think this problem is from net.inet.tcp.blackhole=2 in my sysctl because it's work before i do sysctl -w net.inet.tcp.blackhole=2.. but when back this option to value = 0 this problem is stay there.. and no restarts or re-build my kernel can fix this..or maybe be wrong to this supposition.

I have already updated my ports tree, and I don't think I do one of these numbers any longer: cd /usr/ports/x11/xorg make install clean I then thought about downloading the 6.9 xorg package, but all I found on the freebsd ftp servers was a package for 7.2.

Is there a software out there that can do this for me? Check out healthd or mbmon. One or other has worked OK for me on other Asus boards, and both are in ports (sysutils/ I think). If you have ACPI and your board supports thermal zones, then you can check those. sysctl -a | egrep 'acpi.*therm' or sysctl -a | egrep 'acpi.*tz' one or other should be a good enough incantation. None of my ASUS mobos do have thermal zones so I can't be sure -- it's much more commonly supported in laptops. Or just sysctl -a | egrep acpi and eyeball for anything that looks like temp information. Also beware of constant monitoring. Every now and again (once a day on average), I find mbmon sits chewing CPU and pushing the temperature up itself. So I run in with (ulimit -t 1; /usr/local/bin/mbmon -p winbond -c 1) which means that the parent shell kills it if it uses more than 1 second of CPU, which is far more than it needs. --Alex PS Many disks which support SMART can display their apparent temp as one of the SMART parameters (see sysutils/smartmontools).

Issue portupgrade of SA 3.2.1
Tried doing a portupgrade of p5-Mail-SpamAssassin on one of our test postfix+amavisd+SA+ClamAV 6.2 servers and it failed due to some dependency version missing I can't remember now. I portupgrade'd the dependency and afterward discovered SA had been uninstalled before it failed, no longer on the system. Trying to portinstall the same package, I find it wanting to install openldap-sasl-client-2.3.36 when openldap-sasl-client-2.3.35 was already there...fine, I did a portupgrade myself of openldap-sasl-client to 2.3.36. Still, when trying to portinstall SA, it wants to install openldap-sasl-client-2.3.36. I tried running pkgdb -F to find it trying to link ldap dependencies like nagios to openldap-server-2.3.35_1? Of course, the amavisd package is looking for SA as well. Can't quite understand what it is looking for or if the failure after uninstalling SA broke something. mx1# ls /var/db/pkg/ | grep ldap openldap-sasl-client-2.3.36 openldap-server-2.3.35_1 snip mx1# portinstall p5-Mail-SpamAssassin [Gathering depends for mail/p5-Mail-SpamAssassin ... done] --- Installing 'openldap-sasl-client-2.3.36' from a port (net/openldap23-client) snip -- killed How can I fix this?

I was able to find both packages on that CD (disk 1) and although there was a slight warning when I did the pkg_add for the dri package (some other package it requires was of a higher version than it was looking for), all installed ok and I'm now working through the install to xorg 7.2.

Doubt on the information provided in freebsd.org website.
Hi All, I was going through the Architecture Handbook(Link: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/arch-handbook/boot-bios.html). In this page they have mentioned following phrase The very last thing in the POST is the INT 0x19 instruction. That instruction reads 512 bytes from the first sector of boot device into the memory at address 0x7c00. AFAIK INT0x19 is a reboot service. So I got confused. Can somebody clarify my doubt on INT0x19 (reboot or bootstraping) Thanks and Regards, SaiGanesh -- -- Debugging is twice as hard as writing the code in the first place.

Re: Hardware monitor needed
Check out healthd or mbmon. One or other has worked OK for me on other Asus boards, and both are in ports (sysutils/ I think). If you have ACPI and your board supports thermal zones, then you can check those. sysctl -a | egrep 'acpi.*therm' or sysctl -a | egrep 'acpi.*tz' one or other should be a good enough incantation. None of my ASUS mobos do have thermal zones so I can't be sure -- it's much more commonly supported in laptops. Or just sysctl -a | egrep acpi I do not have anything that looks like temperature. Is it still possible to use healthd or mbmon? By the way, I'm 100% sure that the problem is with the CPU load.

My second question would be, is it possible to connect storage solution to freebsd setups as a hdd. I want to use blade servers as a computing power and storage solution as hdd.

Re: Pressing CTRL-ALT-SPACE on usb keyboard freezes FreeBSD

Tried from another machine but to no avail, it was completely frozen. After restart I tried it a second time, again same results. Changed some bios settings (disabled legacy USB support, that was actually the only option for USB besides disabling it completely) and checked a third time, still the same. Now I know this has something to do with the USB but the motherboard is not faulty. I don't know if it has to do with the particular keyboard (A Microsoft conspiracy to bring the CTRL-ALT-DEL equivalent to FreeBSD ? :) ) but was wondering if anyone else has had a similar problem (or is brave enough to try...). I should also note that after pressing CTRL-ALT-SPACE the green power led of the machine started blinking (like sometimes motherboards do when entering standby or something, only there is no option for this in BIOS). Motherboard is a cheap but brand new ASROCK 478-based P4 motherboard. Thanks Manolis It's a BIOS feature known by man names including: Sleep state S3, Standby or Suspend to RAM. It is not a flaw, (arguably), and it's not specific to any particular kind of keyboard interface. You should be able to disable it in your BIOS's setup program. For example under my BIOS I would go: APCI ACPI Suspend Type (set from 's1s3' to 's1') Now when I press ctrl+alt+space I get the following message: acpi0: Sleep state S3 is not supported by BIOS.

Is it possible to use FreeBSD in blade servers. My second question would be, is it possible to connect storage solution to freebsd setups as a hdd. I want to use blade servers as a computing power and storage solution as hdd. With this way, i believe it will be possible to extend storage and servers easly. Any input on this ? I can probably give you some input on this next week. We're actually buying Sun Blade 8000 and 6000 models, but mainly to be able to say we actually looked at something else, Dell is coming onsite here to give us a presentation of their blades.

Re: Pressing CTRL-ALT-SPACE on usb keyboard freezes FreeBSD

I have a cheap Microsoft wireless keybaord with USB connection, on one FreeBSD 6.2 release machine that acts as a lightweight server / occasional desktop. While in the console (no X running) I accidentally pressed CTRL-ALT-SPACE, received a message about USB controller error (sadly cannot remember exactly) and the machine froze completely. Tried from another machine but to no avail, it was completely frozen. After restart I tried it a second time, again same results. Changed some bios settings (disabled legacy USB support, that was actually the only option for USB besides disabling it completely) and checked a third time, still the same. Now I know this has something to do with the USB but the motherboard is not faulty. I don't know if it has to do with the particular keyboard (A Microsoft conspiracy to bring the CTRL-ALT-DEL equivalent to FreeBSD ? :) ) but was wondering if anyone else has had a similar problem (or is brave enough to try...). I should also note that after pressing CTRL-ALT-SPACE the green power led of the machine started blinking (like sometimes motherboards do when entering standby or something, only there is no option for this in BIOS). Motherboard is a cheap but brand new ASROCK 478-based P4 motherboard. Thanks Manolis It's a BIOS feature known by man names including: Sleep state S3, Standby or Suspend to RAM. It is not a flaw, (arguably), and it's not specific to any particular kind of keyboard interface. You should be able to disable it in your BIOS's setup program. For example under my BIOS I would go: APCI ACPI Suspend Type (set from 's1s3' to 's1') Now when I press ctrl+alt+space I get the following message: acpi0: Sleep state S3 is not supported by BIOS. There are probably other was of disabling it as well. -Modulok- __ Thanks for the suggestion, I thought it would be something like this, I don't think I have STR enabled in the BIOS but will have a second look tomorrow, I may have missed it.
