Using Automount to mount Windows Shares
Out of curiosity does anyone have this combination working? I managed to get it automounting NFS no problem, but would like to know if it's worth spending another few hours trying to get mount_smbfs to cooperate with it or if it's just a lost cause.

Now that server is running FreeBSD and I attempted to get automount to do the same as I had with autofs. I figured I should be able to use 'command' with mount_smbfs but neither Automount or mount_smbfs seems happy with that arrangement. I can manually mount the Windows shares no problem. Thanks for your offer of help though. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: System hangs when I go from X to console (nvidia)
I have a similar issue with an MX440SE. From what I've read the likely candidate is ACPI (try disabling it with option 2 from the FreeBSD boot menu). Works for me. I'm using the nv driver from the XFree port, you might need to research further for using the nvidia-supplied drivers. Wayne Thanks for the reply Wayne. Option 2 on my boot menu is enable instead of disable so it looks like it's already disabled. I did however try enabling it, but unfortunately it had no effect on the problem.

Switching to console would make it hang while the letters on the console appeared very faint. Searching on the linux forum of the nvidia site I found people having the same problem as well as a workaround: put 'Option IgnoreDisplayDevices TV' in the 'Screen' section of XF86Config, disabling the TV-out. I had read that too, except that it should go in the device section. However, I tried in screen section but it didn't improve matters. XFree86.0.log shows that the option is being used though. a working console is much more important for me.) I agree that a working console is far more useful than TV out. Hmm, if you have another machine and a network you could try to do a remote login and see if that works. If you succeed to login (ie. the machine is still alive but displays nothing on the screen), you might be able to bring it back killing X. A very good point (can't believe I didn't think of it). I opened an SSH session on my SGI and ran 'top'. As soon as it switched to console 'top', and the SSH session, froze. Not sure if this helps but I wish you good luck. Karel. Thanks for the help Karel, it's much appreciated. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
System hangs when I go from X to console (nvidia)
I wonder if anybody has had this problem or can tell me what to try next. I installed a Geforce 2 400 MX into my machine yesterday and actually succeeded in getting it to work with X after 12 hours. All apart from from one annoying detail anyway. When I leave X, either by ctrl+alt+bs or ctrl+alt+f[1-8] or rebooting etc. the machine becomes totally non responsive as soon as it tries to go into console. I have to switch off and switch on (no reset button) to get it back to life. I think my hard drives are going to start a petition soon to make me stop. I've tried the VESA, nv and nvidia drivers for X and all seem to exhibit this in one form or another. I've tried loading with and without the VESA driver at boot with no apparent difference. At the moment I'm using the nvidia drivers. If I had to put money on what I think is happening I would say the card tells the monitor go into x by y mode at z refresh but the monitor can't handle that mode. However it doesn't tell the card it can't deal with it, but the card is waiting for the OK from the monitor before it tells the machine to carry on. That's what it looks like from where I'm sitting anyway. The machine is a Compaq Proliant 800 (with embedded video which I've turned off on motherboard) The card is a Elsa Gladiac 511 PCI (with twin output + TV, I'm only interested in getting it to work with one output) FreeBSD is 5.2 and all ports are up to date as of this morning. Any pointers or suggestions welcomed.

RE: 5.2.1 - KDELibs and total freeze-up
The same thing happened to me on a PII Siemens laptop last night. At the time I figured it was just a heat issue, but perhaps there is more to it. I hard booted it and just let make carry on. I can't tell if there is a problem running KDE 3.20 yet as it's not finished compiling... It was definitely kdelibs where it froze though. KDE-3.1.4 KDE-3.20 on 5.2 Good Luck!

Some stats, I'm using an AthelonXP 2100 and the mb type fleas my thought process at the moment. In any event, portupgrade hums along then nada - total freeze.
