Re: Burning DVDs
Hi Edward I found this document very useful recently for burning CD's and DVD's. It's CLI only (no GUI's), but is quite straight forward when you get the hang of it: http://networking.ringofsaturn.com/Unix/FreeBSD-Burning.php Paul Robert Marella writes: On Fri, 14 Oct 2005 23:50:34 +0200 edward [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi all, My DVD drive read and mounts CDs and DVDs properly, but K3B refuses to burn : K3B did not find a suitable writer. You will only be able to create an image. Gut feeling is that there probably is something wrong in the drive's read/write permission. I checked the /etc/fstab file for read/write status and I got the following : # Device Mountpoint FStype Options Dump Pass# /dev/ad0s3bnoneswapsw 0 0 /dev/ad0s3a/ ufs rw 1 1 /dev/acd0 /cdrom cd9660 ro,noauto 0 0 This was the default set up that I haven't altered (yet...). Is there a reason why the DVD drive would be set in read only mode, as a default ? Should I just launch vi and edit the line from ro,noauto to rw,noauto or is there another way ?

RE: Intel 810 and agpgart
MAKEDEV has been replaced with device file system devfs(5) in 5.x onwards. Devfs automatically creates device nodes on demand.

I'm assuming that you need to create devices on 6 in the same manner as 4.X - I guess I'll find out when I upgrade once 6-STABLE comes out ;) Hope this helps...Geoff -- Geoff Glasson [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
RE: KDE /dev/dsp can't be opened
Frank Cc'ing the list (should always do this) Do you know if there are some probes to know which driver to use ? `Pciconf -l -v` will probe and list installed devices. You sould be able to match it up to a driver in /boot/defaults/loader.conf. -Original Message- From: Frank Bonnet [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 10 October 2005 13:17 To: Paul Bridger Subject: Re: KDE /dev/dsp can't be opened Paul Bridger wrote: Have you compiled sound into your kernel? device sound device snd_xxx # device driver Hello Paul oops ...
