Eterm transparency problem.

2005-02-23 Thread Gordon Freeman
Is anyone else having a problem with Eterm 0.9.3?

I love its transparency ability and had it set up with the following user.cfg:

Eterm-0.9.2
begin color
foreground rgb:ff/ff/ff
end

begin attributes
font fx none
end

begin image
type background
mode trans
cmod image 100
end

begin toggles
itrans on
buttonbar off
xterm_select on
end

begin misc
term_name xterm
end

Prior to the 0.9.3 update this shaded the terminal window a little
less than 50%. Now it shades it a blue tint. Trying just the --O and
--shade options yields identical results. However, if I don't use
transparency the --shade option works correctly.

Anyone seen a similar error? 

Slight tangent question:
Is emailing the maintainer the only way to report a bug to a port? The
FreeBSD PR system looks like it isn't intended for ports.

Re: First impressions of FreeBSD 5.3

2004-10-27 Thread Gordon Freeman
I'll toss that into my kernel the next time I can keep my server up
long enough to run.

But since the release date has been pushed back I promise not to start
any more threads about 5.3.

Very odd panic:

panic: APIC: Previous IPI is stuck

First impressions of FreeBSD 5.3

2004-10-26 Thread Gordon Freeman
Well, After upgrading a very vanilla 5.2.1 to 5.3 a lot of things are
just broken.

ipfstat doesn't run. The error:
openkmem:open:no such file or directory

My RAID card (Adaptec 2150 using asr driver) is inaccessible because
the rasr control device no longer exists. Making raidutil useless.

And the server runs incredibly slow. (No I didn't leave in the testing options)

The upgrade was far from smooth for me. Which was mostly my fault
(/usr/src/UPDATING is a must read) but that doesn't really explain why
things are running so badly on this box.

ACPI is disabled, and aside from including IPF and SMP options into
the kernel, it is a very generic kernel as well.

Problems with moused

2004-10-15 Thread Gordon Freeman
I have a powered KVM unit for my Windows box and my FreeBSD box. If
the power is lost (for whatever reason) and then comes back, the
Windows seems to be able to recover without any serious problems. On
my FreeBSD  box however, the mouse freezes.  If I try killing moused
and then restarting it, the mouse acts incredibly messed up. The mouse
doesn't move in the right directions, it moves incredibly fast and
seems to be constantly highlighting and pasting stuff on the screen.

The only way I've been able to 'fix' the moused behavior is to reboot
my FreeBSD box. Is there a better way of resetting the mouse other
than rebooting my box?

my moused process:
/usr/sbin/moused -z 4 -p /dev/psm0 -t auto

I'm running FreeBSD 4.10-RELEASE-p2

How long has this server been up? Does it have softupdates enabled?

 This box is a web server only.  The web files are on their own filesystem  which is 
 at 8% utilization.
 
 I have watched the /usr file system grow from about 69% utilization to 85% 
 utilization over 2 years and can not figure out what is taking the space.  Doing a 
 find . -mtime -2 -print yields no files modified.
 A find . -size +2000 -print yields only expected files.
 
 Would someone be kind enough to give me suggestions as to what is using up the space 
 and/or how to find out ?

Re: Bind 9.3.0 on FreeBSD 5.2.1

Try using rndc -s server ip status

In Bind9 all controls have been turned over to the r/ndc system.

 Hello.
 
 This is potentially a stupid question, but is there a known issue with the
 rc script which controls named under FreeBSD 5.2.1?
 
 Running on an internal-only network where queries are received from machines
 I control on a home network, I get spurios errors such as:
 
 bsd# ./named status
 named is not running.
 bsd# ps x | grep named

 11603  ??  SLs0:00.05 /usr/sbin/named -c /etc/namedb/named.conf
 11605  p0  RL+0:00.00 grep named
 bsd#
 
 I had originally set up this system with the Linux compatibility layer
 enabled which also resulted in complaints about ELF processing.  These
 errors occur with bind 9.3.0rc4 (source install) and with 9.2.3 (ports
 install).
 
 I'm very confused and have stepped through
 
 /etc/defaults/rc.conf
 /etc/rc.d/named
 
 trying to trace the error to no avail.  Any assistance would be greatly
 appreciated.
 
 This is not running in a chroot.

Re: driver : Promise SATA150 TX2/TX4 Serial ATA/150

I don't think there is one. SATA support is pretty much limited to the
FreeBSD 5.x branch.

Re: USB APC UPS support in FreeBSD

2004-07-28 Thread Gordon Freeman
apcupsd was written for Linux and it doesn't work with USB UPS devices
on FreeBSD due to the hefty differences in the USB implementation
between Linux and FreeBSD.

The last time I looked there weren't any USB based UPS monitoring
services for FreeBSD.

 Could anybody port apcupsd daemon or something else on FreeBSD to support
 APC UPS USB connection?
 Or is it already done?

Re: Bittorrent not in ports?

2004-06-21 Thread Gordon Freeman
Try:

/usr/ports/net/ctorrent
/usr/ports/net/py-torrent
/usr/ports/net/qtorrent
/usr/ports/net/torrentsniff

I am currenlty using py-torrent. But I will be taking a look at the
other two (ctorrent and qtorrent) shortly.
