Do they accomplish that by only offering a small subset of the full ports collection? Yes - have a look at http://www.pbidir.com/. I installed PC-BSD on a spare machine to investigate it. The first three ports/metaports I tried to install after completing the base setup were emacs, TeTeX and the Psi Jabber/XMPP client. None of those was available, and after seeing how few prebuilt packages there were in all categories, I gave up. My personal view is that PC-BSD gives the end user an impressive and reasonably slick computer-as-appliance with some ability to customise and still stay ``on the path''. For people who need that, PC-BSD is what they need. My feeling, though, is that anyone who finds themselves wanting to install a bunch of stuff from outside the PBI system (in other words, from ports, which are still there under the hood of PC-BSD) will soon want to switch to mainstream FreeBSD. As such PC-BSD has the potential to be an effective ``gateway drug''(!)

Re: new package system proposal
I'd like to use this opportunity to generally support this and any other ideas taking direction of making binary installs and upgrades easier and more manageable. I recognize the need for people to configure custom options and compile from ports (that is why any new system *must* be compatible with ports), however, it should be noted that there's a lot of people running simple LAMP servers, almost exclusively using default options, who would greatly benefit from better binary package support. I've already ranted about this (http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-questions/2008-December/188119.html) in a slightly different context (I talked about -SECURITY equivalent instead of -DESKTOP that the OP suggests) with almost the same idea - make it easy for people who are interested in running stable, secure servers do binary upgrades without the hassle of going through a major system recompile because of, for example, openldap shared library version bump.

On Thu, 9 Apr 2009 09:16:12 +0200, Jonathan McKeown j.mcke...@ru.ac.za wrote: Yes - have a look at http://www.pbidir.com/. I installed PC-BSD on a spare machine to investigate it. The first three ports/metaports I tried to install after completing the base setup were emacs, TeTeX and the Psi Jabber/XMPP client. None of those was available, and after seeing how few prebuilt packages there were in all categories, I gave up. The problem with PC-BSD is that it concentrates on the average desktop user, read: the usual KDE user. That's why they have lots of KDE stuff available and applications for common productivity uses, as well as multimedia. You made the mistake to choose software that is non-standard. So teTeX? What's this? Who uses teTeX? Go use KOffice, man! :-) I could say something similar about emacs and psi. On PC-BSD, you can always use pkg_add or the ports collection, but it may cause problems to do so. Allthough it's possible, it's adviced to use the PBI installer. My personal view is that PC-BSD gives the end user an impressive and reasonably slick computer-as-appliance with some ability to customise and still stay ``on the path''. For people who need that, PC-BSD is what they need. That seems to bei their goal, yes. My neighbor uses it for some years now and he's completely happy with it. In fact, he isn't interested in FreeBSD, nor does he have fundamental UNIX knowledge, but he likes KDE and the fact that he has not Windows on his machine (with all the advantages this fact implies). My feeling, though, is that anyone who finds themselves wanting to install a bunch of stuff from outside the PBI system (in other words, from ports, which are still there under the hood of PC-BSD) will soon want to switch to mainstream FreeBSD. Take a look at DesktopBSD (their tools are even in the ports collection). They stick to the ports and packages, but added some GUI stuff for installation and administration, without doing a compatibility break as PC-BSD does. As such PC-BSD has the potential to be an effective ``gateway drug''(!) In fact, it has. -- Polytropon From Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ... ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

run_interrupt_driven_hooks
Greetings, I've purchased newer hardware (ASUS M3A78-EM, AMD Phenom 9650, 8GB Kingston DDR2-800, 2 x WD 500GB SATA), and am attempting to install the FreeBSD 7.1 amd64 release. The system boots off of the CD without err, and I have chosen the default boot.

Loading sound drivers
Hi, My motherboard, an ASUS K8V-X, has a generic type sound chip on board, according to ASUS' specifications, it is an AD1980 chipset. The hardware notes, linked from the handbook, does not list this chipset but does list several Intel type HDA chipsets including one AD1981 chipset. Never the less, using the handbook instructions I loaded the meta sound driver and my chipset was identified as a via8233 chipset. The meta driver loaded many drivers into the kernel, but through trial and error I've discovered that only sound.ko and snd_via8233.ko need to be loaded. So, I put these two lines into /boot/loader.conf: sound=YES snd_via8233=YES However, these two modules do not load on bootup. Why? How do I fix this?

memtest question on 8 GB RAM AMD64 system
Dear freebsd people, I have just installed 4 x 2gb kingston memory banks (Kingston HyperX 4GB 800mhz DDR2 Non-ECC CL5 (5-5-5-15) DIMM) onto my AMD 64 system with a X2 5200 CPU. The motherboard I have in this system is MSI K9AG Neo2-Digital. The system boots fine and I wanted to try memtest to see if there would be errors. So I installed that /usr/ports/sysutils/memtest port and did # memtest 2400 The output I got is: Continuing with unlocked memory; testing will be slower and less reliable. ... pagesize 4096 pagesizemask is 0xf000 want 2400MB (2516582400 bytes) got 2400MB (2516582400 bytes), trying mlock ...failed for unknown reason Loop 1: .

Why is memtest failing to use mlock? How can I eventually make sure I can run memtest with 8000mb? The purpose of this machine is that it will be used for a various data intensive tasks where I need to be able to allocate as much memory possible.

As far as I know, if something is msdosfs-formatted (read: any Windows readable file system, FAT), it always involves a slice device. I never found a situation where access to /dev/da0 would work. You can always check any partitioning with # fdisk da0 which prints out a partition table. In your case, the card in the reader will have one DOS partition which is to be accessed via the slice device. The same is usually true for USB sticks, digital cameras (umass+da) and MP3 players. As long as you don't format them with UFS, you'll always find the situation described above. You can easily get rid of it by # newfs /dev/da0 but don't expect Windows to be able to read it afterwards. :-) Read-only, which should be sufficient for mdir.

As far as I know, if something is msdosfs-formatted (read: any Windows readable file system, FAT), it always involves a slice device. I never found a situation where access to /dev/da0 would work. My experience is exactly the reverse. I've never before seen a removable-media device (floppy, Zip-drive, JAZ drive) that *did* have a DOS partition table aka BSD slice table. Surely you would not expect a USB floppy to show up as /dev/da0s1? AFAIK the reason for creating slices is to identify sections of the device for use by different OS -- something often needed for multi-boot from a hard drive but seldom on removable media. I sure wasn't planning to use part of this SD card for my camera to store pictures on, and the rest for FreeBSD backups :) ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
Re: Open Office
Hi, Sorry I should have searched around before asking :( I just installed Open Office (openoffice.org-2.4.2_1) from the ports on a new 6.4 amd64 machine. It installed fine, but whenever I start it, it comes back asking me for the user set-up. (same thing with OpenOffice 3 from the ports). When I try to save a document it pops-up: General Input/ouput error while accessing /my/file/name and creates an empty file. What could be the reason? With NFS mounted file system, must run rpc.lockd and rpc.statd on the NFS server.

I am willing to do reasonable testing (modulo a rebuild taking 30+ hours) in support of fixing this, Robert Huff ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

OT: Postfix rejects from Freebsd server
I know this may be OT, but I could use some help on this one. I've completed a major changeover in network provider, and I've now got a proper static ip including ptr records for my mail server (the only service that really counts on this anyway). If I resolveip for my ip address it shows up my mail server name, and YET I still get deferred rejection from the freebsd mx's. Can anyone shed some light on this?
