8.2-STABLE: audio stopped working properly after upgrade to today's sources
Hi, I have just upgraded to 8.2-STABLE (sources from today) and now my audio does not work as it should, its all very, very quiet, even at levels 100/100 for PCM/VOL with mixer, also when I plug in the headphones they are deaf and sound still plays on the speakers, below are some details of my hardware. I did not done any modifications to GENERIC config, just build it 'as is'.

Re: mount /unmount
On Mon, 4 Jul 2011 17:50:36 +0300, tethys ocean wrote: *Means that /usr is not slice ?? or /var is not slice? are all these are UFS ?* In traditional FreeBSD disk partitioning, a disk can hold 4 slices. In MICROS~1 land, those are called DOS primary partitions. Unlike there, FreeBSD usually just needs one slice to install into. The FreeBSD slice is divided into partitions. Each partition carries a UFS file system - except the swap partition. Those partitions are then mounted. This means that in default installs /usr and /var are the mountpoints of the corresponding partitions (to be fully correct in terminology) that have a UFS file system. Example: ad0 = the 1st DISK ad0s1 = the 1st SLICE on the 1st disk ad0s1a = the 1st PARTITION on the 1st slice on the 1st disk, formatted with UFS Each partition is assigned a mountpoint. This is the connection used by the mount command: It mounts the device specifying a partition to the given mountpoint directory. A common method of partitioning is this: # DeviceMountpoint FStype Options DumpPass# # --- -- -- - - - /dev/ad0s1b noneswapsw 0 0 /dev/ad0s1a / ufs rw 1 1 /dev/ad0s1d /tmpufs rw 2 2 /dev/ad0s1e /varufs rw 2 2 /dev/ad0s1f /usrufs rw 2 2 /dev/ad0s1g /home ufs rw 2 2 (In the _default_ install, /home is symlinked to /usr/home which means it's not a separate partition.) However, it's possible to just create one partition and install all the system's functional parts into that one partition. Mounting it will give access to all subtrees. Basically, my comment was about the correct terminology which is important to use in order to avoid misinterpretations. There is also a mechanism called dedicated partitioning; it's the same as above, just omitting the slicing part, i. e. partitions are created directly on the disk (ad0a, ad0d, ad0e, ad0f and so on). Other partitioning mechanisms do also exist, like GPT (using gpart instead of traditional MBR tools fdisk + bsdlabel), here partition names are ad0p1, ad0p2 and so on. It's also possible to identify partition devices with labels instead of bare numbers, this can be done by labeling them. And of course there's ZFS. :-) You can find more information in the FreeBSD handbook. 3.5 Disk Organization http://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/disk-organization.html 18.3 Adding Disks http://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/disks-adding.html 19.6 Labeling Disk Devices http://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/geom-glabel.html -- Polytropon 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

For whats in the tree itself, take a look at the tree http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/sys/ There are also a few drivers in the ports tree (/usr/ports). There are some vendors who distribute the odd driver from their website, but those tend to be few and far between. The source code and the ports are your best bet to look through. Some drivers support many vendor devices under one driver (e.g. Intel's em supports a wide variety of nics). If you are interested in seeing specifically what is supported, install a copy of FreeBSD along with the source and grep through for specific device IDs you are looking for. ---Mike -- --- Mike Tancsa, tel +1 519 651 3400 Sentex Communications, m...@sentex.net Providing Internet services since 1994 www.sentex.net Cambridge, Ontario Canada http://www.tancsa.com/ ___ 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

If you need to install the files - i. e. they are NOT present in /usr/include/arpa, get the sources matching your OS version (from the DVD, per FTP or via CVS - consult the FreeBSD Handbook for the respective procedures, e. g. installing the src-all install set from the CD if you're using RELEASE).

I wonder if an 8.1 livefs iso will do the trick... Check if you can download FreeSBIE somewhere. It's a live system using the 5.x and 6.x kernel which should be fine. Next to two GUI modes (light, heavy) it also has a versatile maintenance mode for such operations. I have already successfully used this system for solving similar situations, for diagnostics, and for data recovery preparation. The loader obviously knows how to deal with the filesystem because he loads the failing new kernel. So the easiest solution would be to boot an older kernel if available. I don't know how freebsd-update deals with older kernels, he should still be around. First guess is /boot/kernel.old/kernel. So get the loader-prompt, unload kernel and try load /boot/kernel.old/kernel. Andreas OK - to continue, while I have a few free minutes. I have been able to load the old kernel by going to the loader prompt from the boot menu, and doing unload kernel load /boot/kernel.old/kernel That barked about linproc in fstab, so I edited that out. Then, the next go-round: It complained about mismatches on daemon_saver.ko - a version mismatch, so I've commented that out of /etc/rc.conf. It also complained about linux.ko, so that's been commented out in /etc/rc.conf as well. I'm now able to reboot cleanly with the old kernel. After doing 'freebsd-update install' for the second time, I still can't get 8.2 to boot - same issue, only acd0 is recognized. However, I'm logged in as root under the old kernel, though I haven't start XFCE4, and don't have wireless running. This one is getting to be fun... Kurt So, I tried booting from the old kernel again, and then did a 'freebsd-update rollback', and that worked just fine. I thought I'd try again, but first did a 'freebsd-update fetch' and 'freebsd-update install' to get the latest 8.1 updates. That worked just fine, so I did a 'freebsd-update -r 8.2-RELEASE fetch' again, then a 'freebsd-update install', which went just fine, and after that rebooted as directed to attempt the second 'freebsd-update install'. That's when the same thing happened - i got dumped into the mountroot prompt again. And, again, rebooting and escaping to the loader prompt allows me to unload the kernel, load /boot/kernel.old/kernel then autoboot, and boot up. Same as before. Any thoughts? Redo the rollback to 8.1 and install the 8.2-STABLE source-tree. You can install the 8.1-sources from cd and update them to 8.2-STABLE using csup. Put the following lines in /etc/make.conf SUP_UPDATE= YES SUP=/usr/bin/csup SUPHOST=cvsup2.de.freebsd.org SUPFILE=/usr/share/examples/cvsup/stable-supfile Make sure that stable-supfile contains the right tag *default release=cvs tag=RELENG_8 Then goto /usr/src and make update |tee _Update.log Once the source-tree is up-to-date: Have a look at the FreeBSD Handbook: Chapter 8 - Configuring the FreeBSD Kernel. Copy GENERIC to e.g. MYKERNEL, edit MYKERNEL and add some debug-flags. See /sys/conf/NOTES for additional debug-options. You may as well try GENERIC - maybe your problem is gone... Then go to /usr/src and do s.th. like make buildkernel KERNCONF=MYKERNEL and if the kernel built fine install it: make KERNCONF=YOURKERNEL installkernel. You can also add KERNCONF=MYKERNEL to /etc/make.conf instead of adding it to the make command. Installing the new kernels moves /boot/kernel to /boot/kernel.old and installs the new one in /boot/kernel. If the new kernel fails again, you can delete it: rm -rf /boot/kernel mv /boot/kernel.old /boot/kernel thus putting the previous kernel in the right place. If the new kernel fails again, then press the Scroll-key and navigate to the disk-probe usind page-up-key. Write down the messages or take a photo and post it to this list. If the STABLE kernel boots fine you will probably want to remove all the debugging stuff and rebuild it. If you intend to keep the 8.1-kernel move it to e.g /boot/kernel-8.1 so it will not be deleted, when you install new ones and you can always load /boot/kernel-8.1/kernel from the loader Once the new kernel boots fine, cd /usr/src and follow the instructions in Makefile how to build and install a new kernel and a new world. At this point there is no more need for kernel-8.1: delete it.
