Failed to allocate receive buffer problem
Hi. I have a problem that when running a ping (or any other traffic) over IPoIB port, Traffic fails after some time. At destination server DMESG I see that errors: Jun 11 14:42:11 h-qa-033 kernel: ib1: failed to allocate receive buffer 253 Jun 11 14:42:12 h-qa-033 kernel: ib1: failed to allocate receive buffer 254 Jun 11 14:42:13 h-qa-033 kernel: ib1: failed to allocate receive buffer 255 Jun 11 14:42:14 h-qa-033 kernel: ib1: failed to allocate receive buffer 0 Jun 11 14:42:15 h-qa-033 kernel: ib1: failed to allocate receive buffer 1 Jun 11 14:42:16 h-qa-033 kernel: ib1: failed to allocate receive buffer 2 Jun 11 14:42:17 h-qa-033 kernel: ib1: failed to allocate receive buffer 3 Jun 11 14:42:18 h-qa-033 kernel: ib1: failed to allocate receive buffer 4 Jun 11 14:42:19 h-qa-033 kernel: ib1: failed to allocate receive buffer 5 Jun 11 14:42:20 h-qa-033 kernel: ib1: failed to allocate receive buffer 6 Jun 11 14:42:21 h-qa-033 kernel: ib1: failed to allocate receive buffer 7 I work with FreeBSD 9.1.

Re: mini express cards supported by freebsd
On Fri, 7 Jun 2013, david coder wrote: i need a mini express wifi card for a thinkpad laptop. does anybody know of one that is supported by freebsd? the aironet card i have is too fat. Thinkpads have a BIOS blacklist that only allows approved cards to be used. The approved cards likely vary significantly depending on the Thinkpad model. The Lenovo web site has information on which cards are available for each model. Some people patch the BIOS to prevent the test and allow other cards. As far as FreeBSD is concerned, I've had the best experience with Atheros cards. There is a list of cards here: https://wiki.freebsd.org/dev/ath_hal%284%29/HardwareSupport There are two sizes for mini PCIE cards, and two or three antenna connectors, so it's important to match the existing card. ___ 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
Which is the parser plugin for encoding trig?
Hi, some ports on my 9.1-STABLE fail with this message: Could not find parser plugin for encoding trig I found some mails mentioning this problem in the archives and tried to reinstall sysutils/raptor2 - as recommended - but the error remains the same. Any ideas?

FreeBSD 9.1 Carrier Detection
Background: I was having troubles with carrier detection for modems/null modem connections under Solaris 8 (i.e. login session remains active after the modem disconnects). I tried two different dumb modems (do not respond to AT commands). They both output the appropriate voltage on the CD line when a carrier is detected/not detected (I have confirmed this using a volt meter and applying the appropriate carrier tone via a function generator). I then decided to try a null modem connection When accessing the serial console on the Solaris 8 system using a null modem cable, the login session remains active when disconnecting the cable and plugging it back in. To my understanding this should not happen, in the first case with the modem, or with the null modem cable (as I disabled software carrier detection). I decided to test out carrier detection on FreeBSD 9.1 on a different machine running within virtual box. I used a usb-serial dongle which shows up as ttyu0 on the BSD machine. Carrier detection appears to work. When I establish a null modem connection I receive a login prompt. If I login, and then unplug and plug back the cable, I get the login prompt again and the old session does not continue. This is the correct behaviour to my understanding however I am curious of the way the getty process behaves, esp. on bootup in FreeBSD. Question: The line in my /etc/ttys file is as follows: ttyu0 /usr/libexec/getty std.300 dialup on I then issued the command kill -HUP 1 and restarted the system with *nothing* plugged into the serial port. Reading the documentation it is my understanding that when the system starts up and no carrier is detected, when issuing the ps -ax command, the result I am supposed to see should be something as follows: 114 ?? I 0:00.10 /usr/libexec/getty std.300 ttyu0 However I instead see a similar output to the above but the question marks are replaced by letters. Per the documentation at : ttp://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/books/handbook/dialup.html it indicates that if something like this is displayed it means that getty has completed its open on the communications port. This could indicate a problem with the cabling or a misconfigured modem, because getty should not be able to open the communications port until carrier detect has been asserted by the modem. I figured that since nothing is connected into the serial port, perhaps the voltage levels may be floating, instead of being held at the negative voltage which would indicate no carrier. I therefore applied a negative voltage to the CD line and restarted the system. Upon restart I issuing the ps -ax command and the result was as before, letters instead of the question marks. I then manually applied a positive voltage to the CD line and then a negative voltage again. I had to do it a couple times however eventually it showed up with question marks. I then was able to toggle back and forth, positive voltage resulted in letters, negative voltage on CD line resulted in question marks (which is the correct behaviour to my understanding). Why is it that when a negative voltage is applied to the CD line, upon system start-up getty indicates via the ps -ax command that it has opened the port? [i.e. letters appear instead of question marks] I would expect that with a negative voltage applied to the CD line, upon restart it would show up with ?? I need to toggle the voltage between negative to positive and then back to negative (sometimes I need to do it a couple times) for it to eventually show up with ?? and then it would toggle back and forth as I switch the voltages thereafter. ___ 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: which reader/tablet/whatever
Hi,
Have you seen Project Gutenberg. There are alot of books there that are
out of print and published in a variety of formats. I have gotten stuff
onto a older kindle (black and white) with the cable that it comes with
(usb) plugged into the computer, in windows to kindle, dragging and
dropping to the drive.
Other than that I think its much easier (and transparent) in common
usage with wifi or cellular plan. Just navigate and select I would
guess.
I looked around on the web and found some stuff that might be of
interest to you,
there was a thread ( it appears ) on this list last year about the
potential of using FreeBSD on tablets:
http://freebsd.1045724.n5.nabble.com/Vivaldi-Tablet-td5593818.html
Also there is a text to speech add-on for firefox.
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/text-to-voice/
Anyway,
checked a bit thought it might help.

have the text {ASCII =only=} read to me. I would google up
something, but I dont even know what to search for. can I put
freebsd on these tablet devices? if I bought, say, WAR AND PIECE
or something out of copyright { schopenhauer or marcus aurelius }
that is in text, how do I get it to whatever tablet I have?
right now we've got cable and I use the telco for my server.
I know that works, but it is only good for my computer network.
but say I wanted to keep things simple and buy some kind of kindle
or nook. how does amazon.com or bn.com get their new ebooks onto
my reader?
thanks in advance,

How to force a static /etc/resolv.conf?
I'm running 9.1. I run a local recursive resolver, so my /etc/resolv.conf needs to remain static. I have DHCPv4, DHCPv6 and VPN clients running which all want to modify /etc/resolv.conf. I have set in /etc/resolvconf.conf: search_domains=example.com. example.net. name_servers=2001:db8::53 But that only prepends that information. Search domains and nameservers from other sources still get included. I can set /etc/resolv.conf as immutable, but's a hack and it generates errors from resolveconf. How do I tell resolvconf to always use a static configuration or, better yet, to not muck with /etc/resolv.conf at all? ___ 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
