Re: hard lockups with RC1

Nevertheless this is a problem with linux emulation, not flash Turns out this was caused by an out of date nvidia driver. Updated to nvidia-driver-285.05.09 and that solved the problem. ___ 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

hard lockups with RC1
I've recently upgraded from 9.0 beta1 to RC1 and experiencing a few hard lockups, they seem to related to browsing - both chromium and firefox cause the lockups. (requiring a hard reset ) All I can think of is something related to Linux emulation and flash, but I could be wrong. Rolling back the kernel version with the same userland clears up the problem. I haven't been able to get any logs or cores to help diagnose this problem, so I'd appreciate a push in the right direction. ___ 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: Installing and using wine on amd64
I've done some research and found lots of posts several years old that suggest that using wine on AMD64 is not possible or requires binary packages that don't exist, and even if one can install it, it doesn't run. Has this situation improved meanwhile? Does anyone have a recipe on how to get wine running? You can get wine running on AMD64, see the following wiki link: http://wiki.freebsd.org/Wine#head-6963d527c173e57b1567e881305b544d33435b6d ___ 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
dtrace function arguments
I'm looking for a faster way to get more verbose information about dtrace function arguments. For example. Say, I want to know more about the funciton syscall:freebsd32:connect:return. I'd start off by doing a listing: # dtrace -lvf connect -snip--- 43723syscall freebsd32 connect return Probe Description Attributes Identifier Names: Private Data Semantics: Private Dependency Class: Unknown Argument Attributes Identifier Names: Private Data Semantics: Private Dependency Class: ISA Argument Types args[0]: int args[1]: caddr_t args[2]: int From the output of the listing, I can see quite clearly there are three arguments for this function - int, caddr_t, int; but I can't see from this output what these refer to. I could probably find the answer by digging through header files and source code, but this isn't exactly efficient. Is there an easier way to find more information about functions (not specifically this one)? ___ 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
