A gmirror question.
Hi! I've got a question regarding the way that gmirror identifies what components (if that is the right term) are included in a mirror. I recently created a mirror over two disks, ad2 and ad4. After some bios changes (activating PATA) these devices were changed to ad6 and ad10 respectively. The magic thing (which probably isn't so magic =) ) here is that after reboot, gmirror still managed to identify the mirror, now using ad6 and ad10. If I have understood things correctly, gmirror stores all relevant information about the mirror in the last sector on the provider. So I guess one possible solution is that gmirror ,during startup, scans all disks/slices for this magic sector and then starts the mirror. But if this is the case, how does gmirror know that it should use (in my example above) ad10 and not ad4 as the additional disk in the mirror. Or does gmirror use something else than the /dev entries to address disks?? I'm just curious how gmirror does this.

plextor PX-760SA problem
Hello! I'm having some trouble trying to burn dvd:s using my PX-760SA under FreeBSD. As far as I know, the DVD-burning software that is available for FBSD uses the SCSI subsystem and therefore requires atapicam. My problem is the following: After Compiling the kernel with the following options device atapicam device ata device scbus device cd device pass The system almost hangs at startup. With almost I mean that when it tries to recognize the cd0 device it hangs for about 5-10 minutes and then produces the output: cd0 at ata2 bus 0 target 1 lun 0 cd0: PLEXTOR DVDR PX-760A 1.03 Removable CD-ROM SCSI-0 device cd0: 3.300MB/s transfers cd0: @ after that it hangs again. I've also tried loading the atapicam module with kldload which generates almost the same behavior. After kldload I can use the system until I try kldstat or ls /dev then it hangs for about 5-10 minutes. produces the output cd0 at ata2 bus 0 target 1 lun 0 cd0: PLEXTOR DVDR PX-760A 1.03 Removable CD-ROM SCSI-0 device cd0: 3.300MB/s transfers cd0: @ and then hangs again for another couple of minutes, responds to my commands for a couple of minutes and hangs again and so on. I tried upgrading the firmware of the PK-760SA to 1.06. Still the same problem There is no problem using the PX-760SA without atapicam. dmesg attached. (without atapicam in kernel) Any help appreciated //Stefan dmesg Description: Binary data ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Xorg problems..
Hello.. I've been having some problems with Xorg under fbsd 5.3 (Production release). While using my computer under X (xorg 6.7) it suddenly hangs.. These crashes seems to be somewhat random. They have occurd while i'm using firefox or valknut and performing some sort of action, pressing the refresh button or something like that.. The only thing that the computer responds to is the mouse movements.. It does not respond to any buttons pressed on the keybord.. When I, via ssh, logged on to the computer it showed that Xorg was using about 98% of processor capacity.. I could reboot the computer via ssh... Anyone got any ideas of what could cause these problems?? Any help appreciated.. //Stefan dmesg Description: Binary data ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

They have occurd while i'm using firefox or valknut and performing some sort of action, pressing the refresh button or something like that..

Hi, First of all I just want to say that I've never used mysql before so there might not be any problem at all, except me not understanding how to do =) I'm trying to setup mysql40. I installed it from the ports via the mysql40-server port. The installation went just fine. Afetr the installation I was trying to set the mysql root-users password with mysqladmin -u root password 'new-password' when i tried that I got the following message: mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed error: 'Access denied for user: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' (Using password: NO)' The server should be up and running because the command mysqladmin version gave the following output: mysqladmin Ver 8.40 Distrib 4.0.17, for portbld-freebsd4.9 on i386 Copyright (C) 2000 MySQL AB MySQL Finland AB TCX DataKonsult AB This software comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY.

NFS problem..
Hello.. I'm running FreeBSD 5.1 on a computer configured as an nfs-client and freebsd4.8 on a computer configured as an nfs-server. When I try to move something from the client to a partition on the server mounted on the client in fstab using mv the client crashes. The server should be working fine since there is no problem when using mv from a FreeBSD4.8 client to the server. I can without any problem access the files on the nfs server, it's just when using mv that the client crashes. Here are some configurations on the client... This line is used in fstab: 192.168.0.1:/usr/server nfs rw 0 0 These options are compiled into the kernel. options NFSCLIENT #Network Filesystem Client options NFS_ROOT#NFS usable as root device, Any help appreciated //stefan ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hmm, are you sure you used the correct procedure... I mean, couldn't you be running with an old linux kld? You did buildworld, build/install kernel, install world, merge, reboot, right? Yes.. Exactly like that. I have also recompiled the kernel again without success.

I can't install the linux_base from the ports because kldload fails, if that helps. Putting linux_enable=YES in my rc.conf doesn't start it either.
