OSS and ALSA
Hi :) I know it's a topic for the multimedia list, but there's less traffic on that list, so I hope it's okay to post it to both lists :S. I'll test the snd_hdspe driver. It's working for the 2 analog IOs of a HDSPe AIO, but other ports are missing by jackd. I was asked to use mpd, but I never used this kind of media player before. Usually I'm using pro-audio apps on Linux and seldom I use averaged media players and as mentioned before, I never used this kind of player. I don't know how to use mpd or the Gnome GUI for it and sonata failed to build. Perhaps I could use an averaged media player to get access to all ports? Is there a way to automatically get all dependencies when building applications? To me it's already strange that audacious is build without the output plugins, however, I'll build them now and I get root@freebsd:/usr/home/rocketmouse # cd /usr/ports/multimedia/audacious-plugins ; make install clean ┌┐ │ Options for audacious-plugins 3.3.3│ │ ┌┐ │ │ │ [*] AAC AAC/MP4 format │ │ │ │ [*] ADPLUG ADPLUG decoder │ │ │ │ [*] ALSAALSA audio architecture│ │ │ │ [*] AMIDI Amidi decoder │ │ │ │ [*] AOSDAudacious OSD │ │ │ │ [*] AOSDXCOMP Audacious OSD X Composite │ │ │ │ [*] BS2BBS2B effect│ │ │ │ [*] CDAUDIO CD audio input │ │ │ │ [*] CUE Embedded CUE sheets│ │ │ │ [*] DBUSD-Bus IPC system │ │ │ │ [*] FFAUDIO FFAudio decoder│ │ │ │ [*] FLACFLAC lossless audio codec │ │ │ │ [*] GIO GIO support│ │ │ │ [*] JACKJACK audio server │ │ │ └─v(+)───45%─┘ │ ├┤ │ OK Cancel │ └┘ === Found saved configuration for audacious-plugins-3.3.3 = audacious-plugins-3.3.3.tar.bz2 doesn't seem to exist in /usr/ports/distfiles/. = Attempting to fetch http://distfiles.audacious-media-player.org/audacious-plugins-3.3.3.tar.bz2 audacious-plugins-3.3.3.tar.bz2 100% of 1699 kB 571 kBps === Extracting for audacious-plugins-3.3.3 = SHA256 Checksum OK for audacious-plugins-3.3.3.tar.bz2. === Patching for audacious-plugins-3.3.3 === audacious-plugins-3.3.3 depends on executable: audacious - found === audacious-plugins-3.3.3 depends on file: /usr/local/lib/oss/include/sys/soundcard.h - not found ===Verifying install for /usr/local/lib/oss/include/sys/soundcard.h in /usr/ports/audio/oss === oss-4.2.b2007 requires kernel source to be installed. *** [install] Error code 1 Stop in /usr/ports/audio/oss. *** [build-depends] Error code 1 Stop in /usr/ports/multimedia/audacious-plugins. *** [install] Error code 1 Stop in /usr/ports/multimedia/audacious-plugins.

Hi All,
So I use zfs for the root file system. Works well. However now I want to
move /tmp to ram-disk (memory disk or what ever). When I try to unmount
/tmp with the zfs command of course it won't because its busy. With ufs I

I've been moving a lot of machines from 9.0 to 9.1 with some patches
this days (like tmpfs-nrbtree). I inject some code inde /etc/rc.d/zfs to
update this. I'm adding this to /etc/fstab:
tmpfs /tmp tmpfs rw,nosuid 0 0
After this I'm changing /etc/rc.d/zfs:

+ rm -rf /tmp

+ mount /tmp
zfs mount -a
zfs share -a
if [ ! -r /etc/zfs/exports ]; then
After reboot zfs filesystem for tmp is gone and tmpfs is in charge.
The code is harmless upon reexecution and just does the job. I haven't
found easier way of doing this.

IPMI SOL setup on FreeBSD 9.1 amd64 supermicro X9SCM-F/X9CL-F
I have a couple servers that are built using the supermicro X9SCM-F/X9CL-F motherboards, and I can't quite get IPMI SOL working right. These motherboards have 3 NIC's. One NIC is for a dedicated IPMI interface. I have both servers configured to use the dedicated IPMI NIC and these NIC's are plugged into a separate unmanaged switch. Both systems boards are set to redirect com1. I changed /etc/ttys to run a getty on /dev/ttyu0. I have com1 configured to 115,200 baud, 8, n, 1, no flowcontrol in the BIOS. I in have /etc/ttys: ttyu0 /usr/libexec/getty std.115200 vt100 on secure Using one server, I start an IPMI SOL session to the other server. But all I get is the IPMI SOL output, no login prompt. If I reboot the server I am SOL connected to, I do see the BIOS boot messages, and even the initial FreeBSD boot prompt. I can even make boot prompt changes from the SOL session. Once boot starts the SOL gets no more output. I looked at both servers and the one I am using to initiate the SOL has /dev/ipmi0 and ipmitool working fine. On the server I am trying to connect to has /dev/ipmi1 and ipmitool errors: Could not open device at /dev/ipmi0 or /dev/ipmi/0 or /dev/ipmidev/0: No such file or directory These are identical motherboards. I suspect that because the one system creates /dev/ipmi1 instead of /dev/ipmi0 may be why the SOL output stops right after the boot starts. If I do: ln -s /dev/ipmi1 /dev/ipmi0 ipmitool works fine, until the next reboot. How can I get the one system to make /dev/ipmi0 instead of /dev/ipmi1? In FreeBSD 9.1 do I use hint.uart instead of hint.sio in /boot/loader.conf? Any help would be appreciated. -Derek derek at computinginnovations.com -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean. ___ 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

Or use fstat and avoid the lsof overhead -- Adam Vande More ___ 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

Of course, this would work. But then all existing files of the existing FreeBSD would be without owner. The current user is: rocketmouse The uid is : 1001 Isn't it possible to change the uid to 1000? This would cause that the owner wouldn't be rocketmouse anymore, but still 1001. I then could run chown -R for /home/rocketmouse to switch from 1001 to back to rocketmouse = new uid 1000. You would need to do two changes: First in the password database, with chsh (tidy way) or by editing the /etc/passwd, /etc/master.passwd and /etc/group files plus rebuilding the database with pwd_mkdb (untidy way) to assign rocketmouse = 1000 on FreeBSD. Then you would also have to promote this change to the file system, as all the files still belong to a user with UID 1001. Use chown -R with the new numerical value of 1000. Result: Your user would have the UID 1000 on all systems, so all the low level functions would behave similarly. Or another idea would be to create a new user with the uid 1000 and then to add rocketmouse to the group of this user. I guess this is what you already recommended. Yes, that would also work. You only have to make sure that group permissions are valid, and the access permission is provided in /etc/group properly. -- 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
TRIM support on SSD via ata(4)
Hi there, I've just bought this Crucial M4 SSD few days ago as a (hopefully) nice upgrade option for my old laptop (I'm currently using it via SATA-IDE cdrom bay). Not the best setup, but alas I see no other options for me due to lack of any real SATA ports and an old controller (my system is recent 8.3-STABLE): $ pciconf -lv | grep -i ata atapci0@pci0:0:31:1:class=0x01018a card=0x83191033 chip=0x266f8086 rev=0x04 hdr=0x00 device = 'PATA100 Controller - 266F (82801FB/FBM/FW/FR/FRW)' subclass = ATA Anyway, drive is recognized and seems to work quite fine, but one thing in dmesg puzzles me when I mount filesystem from SSD: TRIM flag on fs but disk does not support TRIM Under Linux, hdparm(8) reports that TRIM is supported, so I'm wondering why FreeBSD does not see it. My ata(4) support in /boot/loader.conf looks like this (little to none hardware support is compiled into the kernel): ataintel_load=YES atadisk_load=YES atapci_load=YES $ kldstat | grep ata 201 0xc0a65000 4734 atadisk.ko 215 0xc0a6a000 e398 ata.ko 223 0xc0a79000 80d4 atapci.ko 381 0xc0afc000 76ec ataintel.ko 392 0xc0b04000 6f50 ataahci.ko Unfortunately, I cannot use ahci(4) and limited to atacontrol(8), which does not have identify command like camcontrol(8). Shall I recompile the kernel with ATA_CAM option? Is there way to force TRIM support, perhaps by sending ATA commands directly to the drive? Thanks, ./danfe P.S. Buying a new laptop is the easiest solution, but I do not want to do that for various reasons, mostly because it's quite hard to find one that would be nicely supported by FreeBSD these days. ___ 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: zfs configuration
Hi, If you are using different filesystem for /tmp, which I guess you do, I would recommend trying: zfs set mountpoint=/something zfsroot/tmp This way you will change the mountpoint to some other location. Also if you have trouble dismounting the system you can do: 1. fstat to find out which process is using the system; 2. use -f option to force the dismount process. Hope this helps.

Works well. However now I want to move /tmp to ram-disk (memory disk or what ever). When I try to unmount /tmp with the zfs command of course it won't because its busy. With ufs I would just edit fstab and reboot what do I don with zfs?? Thx in advance...
