using a differnet icon theme with nautilus, without having gnome installed
hello, I'm running freebsd 5.4 with fluxbox and with nautilus file manager. Installing themes and icons with gnome is really easy, but how do you install themes and icons for nautilus without having the entire gnome wm installed? For example the dropline nuovo: http://art.gnome.org/download/themes/icon/1112/ICON-DroplineNuovo.tar.bz 2 (files are extracted to the following directories ./themes and ./icons (actually .icons is symlink to .themes) And now? How do I enable these icons to be used as default in nautilus? I've been googling around, and I found that nautilus uses the [gtk]theme. That doesn't mean a lot to me (as a windowmanager novice). What are my next steps to get it work? (If possible I really don't want to install the entire gnome manager!!!)

missing good and stable newsreader (free or commercial)
Hi, I'm missing a valuable free or commercial freebsd newsreader. Under xp I use grabit from (www.shemes.com). I tried the pan newsreader but it permanently crashes when reading and caching large newsgroups (more than 100mb of cache). Are there good and stable freebsd newsreader available? It should be able to do the following: 1) decoding binary attachments 2) (if possible) nzb file support 3) easy to use P.S: I tried grabit with wine under freebsd, unfortunately grabit crashes, so this is not an alternative!

RE: vesa 1024x768 mode in future version? to the freebsd community
Hello, Yes, I do agree that stability is the major argument for not using it. But isn't it worth to have a high resolution console on freebsd? Sorry, to be a bit self-confident ;-) but I'm rather sure that hundreds/thousands of freebsd would use it (on laptop, workstation and servers) if there would be an available solid implementation. One of the main arguments I've always reread, is, when you are physically at the console and require high definition consoles, use X. On servers, security is the main factor and of course stability is part of good security. I personally don't tend to install X on servers, I'm sure there are other much better freebsd admins than me that don't install X on servers. Most security-related paper do not recommand to install X (and compilers of course etc). So at least on these kind of servers a high resolution (and of course) stable/solid console would be a real step forward for freebsd. In my NON-specialist opinion, comparing to linux distributions, it is the only main feature that bsd lacks. I personally don't like linux (but this is another discussion) but I've always missed the higher definition consoles on freebsd and/or even openbsd.

vesa 1024x768 mode in future version? to the freebsd community
Dear FreeBSD Team, Dear FreeBSD Users, I was wondering if the patches (see link below) have any chances to make their ways into a future release version or may be in the ports collection? Here are the patches I'm talking about: http://people.freebsd.org/~delphij/vesa Actually the vidcontrol.diff patch failed for me so I used these patches: http://www.nbritton.org/uploads/current-vesa_patch.tar.gz I'm not a programmer and I can't consider the amount of work or difficulty that these modifications require to the freebsd team to incorporate these changes. I use some older and newer hardware on servers, I don't want to install X and I often had problems getting high resolution modes in consoles (like in linux). Honestly, :-) even if X is installed, high resolution consoles are still nice to have, because 80x25 to 90x60 are nothing compared to a: vidcontrol MODE_279 (1024x768x16) resolution. I had the problem this afternoon while installing freebsd5.4-prerelease (from cvsuping RELENG_5) , 90x60 was the best resolution I could get (without the patch) with my laptop, it has an ati mobility radeon 9600 graphic. SC_PIXEL_MODE only use 800x600x8 (256 colors, mode=259) which is not supported on ati cards. I assume that there are other vendors too. Reading and googling around showed that there are other users having console resolution problems. They would certainly be glad to have higher console resolutions too, especially migrating linux users. I do admit that the vidcontrol/syscon patches I use from www.nbritton.org...) are bit buggy, mouse cursor, or sluggy screen when going to X. This is not a complain or something similar ... as I reallly, really like freebsd (and openbsd too actually ;-)) and I have enormous respect that you develop it in your free time. I'm only wondering why this isn't integrated, is it useless for you, or to much work (or both) ... If it won't be integrated into a release, do you think it would be possible to put it and maintain it in the ports collection? May be other users think the same?

xinerama with an ati radeon 9200se
Hi, I've installed freebsd 5.3 with xorg 6.8.1 (from ports). I've an ati radeon 9200se graphic adapters which has: a) 1 x digital connector b) 1 x analog connector On the digital connector I've a philips lcd monitor and on the analog connector I've a sony lcd monitor connected. Unfortunately I'm not only able to get a signal in x11 on the digital output (which is connected to the sony lcd monitor). The monitors show a message no signal. Actually running Xorg -configure only detects the monitor connected to the analog output. What ever I tried I was not able to get a signal on the digital out of the card?! When not running X I have a cloned console mode. On both screen I can see the same consoles. As soon as I startx only 1 screen works, the one connected to the analog Monitor. I (of course) tried to configure a second screen, defining sections etc, Screen 0, Screen 1, ServerLayout stuff etc like here for example: http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Dual_Monitors May be someone is alreay using a more less equal config with an ati 9200se in xinerama mode? Could you please send me your xorg.conf? Any help is welcome, please give me some suggestions. In advance, thanks a lot!!!

similar dmassage tool for freebsd?
Hi, For openbsd there is a tool called dmassage . From the original doc: dmassage parses the dmesg of your OpenBSD system, and can do three things with that information: a) make the kernel boot faster b) reduce kernel size c) show all devices in a tree-like hierarchy Does a similar tool exist for freebsd which can do point b) and c) thx didier ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

appendum post: rc2, xorg, and matrox g550 troubles
Hi, I've downloaded the matrox linux drivers for the g550. Istalling the mga_hal.o in the driver directoy wasn't enough, so I overwrited the mga_drv.o file with the linux one. Starting X worked, BUT, it was not possible to get a console back. When quitting X I get a blank and black screen. I need to ssh from another workstation to make a proper shutdown. When I disable acpi at boot time, start X (with linux drivers) and quit X I'm able to get back a console. Unfortunately dual screen does not work. What I didn't mention is that I'm using the dvi connectors of my lcds screen, perpaps this is also source of the problem?! thanks for feedback, comments, tips or any help. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: conf/62230: log-in-vain issues it's msg every time 'mail'command is used.
Hi, I thought I would share my experience, with log_in_vain. :-)) When setting: sendmail_flags=NO Sendmail only listens to 127.0.0.1 I only need sendmail to send daily/weekly/monthly reports. Every time the security report is sent, I have these entries too: Connection attempt to TCP 127.0.0.1:113 from 127.0.0.1:49161 flags:0x02 Connection attempt to TCP 127.0.0.1:113 from 127.0.0.1:49163 flags:0x02 There are not hundreds of entries of course only 6 or something depending of the quantity of sent mails It would be nice to have a/some flag(s) in rc.conf for log_in_vain like: log_in_vain_flags=-ii0 127.0.0.1 10.0.0.1 -ii would be ignore interfaces for example This would be very useful on a host with multiple interfaces. In this case log_in_vain would ignore entries for 127.0.0.1 and 10.0.0.1 (would be an internal interface). Even if it is not a bug it would a nice little plus. ;-) Regards, It's not that I don't think it's a bug that warrants attention; I don'tthink it's a bug at all.

scroll lock vs shift page up keys usage
Hi, (fbsd novice using bash2) I switched from csh to bash2 today. I was wondering if it is possible under bash2 to scroll the screens in the ttyv0-6 consoles with shift page up and shift page down. In csh I've always used Scroll lock but I thought under bash it is possible. When under X with xterm you can browse the screens with shift page up and shift page down. In some linux distros that uses bash shift page down and up are a normal feature.

RE: log_in_vain=YES
Thanks for answering. No actually I don't think someone is spoofing. There is a firewall (other machine, actually) blocking any kind of incomingoutgoing 127. adresses. So I don't think (at this time) that this is the problem. What I ment with cron, is that there are daily reports the are being sent via sendmail. I've this sendmail option in rc.conf: sendmail_enable=NO. Sendmail is only listening on localhost. I assume that my freebsd host sends a auth command to 127.0.0.1 because a sendmail connection is being tried from 127.0.0.1.

Hi, I'm a bit confused. In /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/NOTES it is written: # Be sure to disable 'cpu I386_CPU' for SMP kernels. Do they mean you have to completely remove the cpu option from the custom file, at this time I'm using this in my custom kernel: cpu I686_CPU options SMP device apic Can I leave this? Or should I only have: #cpu I686_CPU no it is disabled no cpu option options SMP device apic thx ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
starting /stand/sysinstall in single user mode, how?
hi, (concerns freebsd 5.2-release) when I restart in single user mode with: shutdown now I choose: /bin/csh as my shell. Set TERM variable: set TERM cons25 and try to start sysinstall: /stand/sysinstall A message appears: Try to set the TERM variable before using sysinstall Sysinstall will use ASCII mode .. (The message is not 100% exact) It looks like it doesn't accept or recognize the TERM variable? What's wrong with my TERM variable, I have also tried: set TERM=cons25 or anything imaginable, nothing worked! What can I do? It is actually impossible to use sysinstall in ASCII mode, you can't navigate in it, it immediately crashes. many thanks ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

RE: ERROR: Unable to write data to disk idad1
How I solved the problem: 1) I booted the live-cd (5.2-release cd2) 2) Launched the CDROM/DVD Use the live filesystem CDROM/DVD 3) Launched /stand/sysinstall from the shell 4) and created the required partition from there. I rebooted in normal mode and formatted (with newfs) the partition and was able to use mount and use them. What did not work was disabling the geom protection. Setting the sysctl variable: kern.geom.debugflags=16 did not work for me. Some error occurred, the message was (more or less) that my device, the disk (where I wanted to add the partition, which also contained a swap partition) was busy because of the swap. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: dual-booting with xp
Hi, Start in windows xp and use bootpart from: http://www.winimage.com/bootpart.htm List your partition of your disks with this tool and have look where freebsd is installed. (It is a nice freeware tool and you don't risk any damage to the partition table!) You can than create with Bootpart a 512 byte file that contains an image of your freebsd boot sector. Bootpart will copie it to c:\ (for example). It can even add the correct text string and references to your newly created (for example) freebsd.bin file in boot.ini. good luck Messages d´origine De: Ion-Mihai Tetcu [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: jeudi, janvier 15, 2004 5:22 pm Objet: Re: dual-booting with xp On Thu, 15 Jan 2004 11:15:02 -0500 Duane Winner [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hello, I am trying to install FreeBSD 4.9 on a machine that already has XP installed.

Bash... If you have installed instant-workstation, you should copy the file /usr/share/skel/dot.bashrc to root's home directroy and call... I had a look at the Makefile of the /usr/ports/misc/instant-workstation port. I can't figure out where or how this file (dot.bashrc) could have been installed from this port?! I have the bash2 shell pkg/port installed and in my mind, this is the only port where the dot.bashrc file could be installed, but this isn't obviously the case. For a beginner (coming from a windows world) who doesn't know which shell is better, sorry more adequate, it is easier to have a sample config file, to start learning how to configure you shell!
