Strange that this happens after an upgrade. What initalization
mechanism do you use for your X session? Do you use the chained
approach, i. e., ~/.xsession containing

#!/bin/csh
source ~/.cshrc
exec ~/.xinitrc

and all your session startup stuff in ~/xinitrc? (I'm using this
approach for many years with XDM successfully.)




Disabling XDM and starting X manually works.


In this case, ~/.xinitrc will be processed. XDM does use ~/.xsession
instead (same content can be used). This seems to indicate that
the upgrade did not affect the programs called.








I've done like this
lrwxr-xr-x   1 user  user 9 31 Dec 17:53 .xinitrc@ - .xsession


These are the contents of .xsession

#
LANG=sv_SE.ISO8859-1; export LANG

I've disabled XDM for now starting X manually.

When I exit X I see this on the console:

Re: Boot hangs in single-user mode

2013-06-19 Thread Andrew Hamilton-Wright

Hi Everyone,

On Thu, 6 Jun 2013 10:24:52 -0300, Andrew Hamilton-Wright wrote:
 
 Strangely, it seems that I cannot boot single user, either
 using boot -s from the boot loader, or using the boot menu. 
 When I get to the point where the root filesystem is mounted,
 it hangs right after printing the message:
 Trying to mount root from ufs:/dev/ada0s1a


There was a bit of a delay getting back to this, as I needed to move the 
internals over to a replacement server in a planned upgrade.

I have left the boot disk in the machine demonstrating this problem with the 
intention of coming back to determine what is going on (mount points to 
now-missing data disks have been removed from /etc/fstab).

In the resulting stripped down system, I have the same behaviour as before -- I 
cannot get to single-user mode, but multi-user is fine.

If in multi-user mode, if I issue kill -TERM 1 to go to single-user mode, I 
would get a single console message:  pflog0:  promiscuous mode disabled, then 
nothing.  While I would expect pflog to shut down in this case, I have now 
disabled everything pf related (I cannot imagine that it would interfere with 
console operation), and now have the situation where kill -TERM 1 simply locks 
the console.

Plugging in a USB device while the console is locked does produce the expected 
dmesg updates, and the system does respond to [CTRL]-[ALT]-[DEL]


I will also add that I can boot to a single-user prompt when booting off of the 
9.1 media via DVD and mounting the root filesystem from the disk.  (This 
motherboard+kernel have never gotten along particularly well with the DVD 
reader/writer in the machine, so mounting the filesystem from the DVD usually 
fails with various atapi based timeouts).

Does anyone have any thoughts on how to further explore this?  As the situation 
was more than mildly annoying, and could certainly have been worse, if this is 
likely to occur for anyone else, I would like to file a PR.

Thanks,
Andrew.

 Due some reasons, i need to change tc value of some of my ttys,

Why is kill -HUP 1 unsafe?  It's documented in init's manpage:

 Line status (on, off, secure, getty, or window information) may be
 changed in the ttys(5) file without a reboot by sending the signal
 SIGHUP to init with the command ``kill -HUP 1''.  On receipt of this
 signal, init re-reads the ttys(5) file.

You are right, it is in the man page. I just wanted to preserve my machine
from facing possible side-effects this command may cause, which i may not
be aware of, if possible..

If one tty's tc has been changed and i run *kill -HUP 1* command, any
current session on that tty will be forcibly closed; but not for those with
same tty configs as before. At least, i may loose things, according to the
loss of open sessions(though not having faced any problems during tests
till now).
i know i am responsible for the time of running this command, but do all
child PIDs exit normally? I have heard of unwanted reactions on other OS es
because of this command, but not for FreeBSD (at least till now)..

 Or init q
As i heard, this command is just the same as kill -HUP 1. Does init q
have any difference with the other one, in any aspects??

FWIW, I've used kill -HUP 1 on FreeBSD for reloading /etc/ttys
since roughly 1997.  No repercussions.  Ever.  Not once.
It wasn't until sometime in the early 2000s that I found init(8)
mentioning you could do init q instead, so since then I've done that.

That's the experience! good to hear about that.. Anyhow, i think i will try
init q from now on. At least seems more handy :)

Re: FreeBSD slice/partiton setup question

2013-06-19 Thread Warren Block
There have been some excellent responses, and I just wanted to add a 
quick point:


Virtual machines with VirtualBox work very well and avoid the problem of 
trying to make compatible partition layouts.  Enable sshd on FreeBSD and 
get to the files with rsync or scp or some FUSE module on the other 
computer.


Besides avoiding the whole problem of mixed partition schemes, it means 
both operating systems can run at the same time.  The host computer can 
be used to look up things on the web about setting up the VM guest, 
while the guest is actually running.

showing CAPSLOCK state on display

2013-06-19 Thread Matthias Apitz

Hi,

I'm running 10-CURRENT on my small netbook EeePC 900; the device has
only a set of four lights (powered on, battery loading, disk i/o, WLAN) and
no indicator more, especially not for CAPSLOCK. So you don't know the
state of it and have to try in in a terminal (which sometimes gives
funny results when you write something with vim); some days ago I saw on
a Windows 7 laptop that it showed CAPSLOCK in some small overlay text
on-screen on the right sight. That would be just what I wanted for my
KDE3 desktop... any ideas?

An option would be to turn off the light powered on when CAPSLOCK,
because this light is always on when the netbook is up and one seldome
use CAPSLOCK;

Thanks

matthias
