If it does work unacceptably then maybe shutdown some services, use a window manager that uses low resources. You might be able to use the svga (or what ever that driver is called) driver so that you don't have to use X. Another tip might be to burn the AVI to CD or a file system that is not part of the primary HD so that you don't have bottle necks with swap files and other stuffs during the IO process. A few other things that can done to possibly help include turning on frame drop and if your gfx card supports xv use that too. The xv should be used by defualt thought unless the config file has been changed. Not sure about that card thought. Xine also may be worth looking into. From what I've seen it generally eats less cpu time than mplayer. Never tried it on a 100MHz Pentium befor, the slowest I have ever tried it on was a 200MHz pentium.

Re: Help needed please - Thinkpad A31p FreeBSD 4.8 Installation(LONG)
On Fri, 4 Jul 2003 19:23:56 +1000 Pisut Tempatarachoke [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi, I've just got my TP A31p and now look forward to installing FreeBSD 4.8 (4-CDROM set) on it. I'm very new to FreeBSD and really hope someone could give me some advices. Thanks a lot in advance. The laptop has no floppy drive and came with a 60 GB hard drive which consisted of two FAT32 partitions (slices): - 55 GB Windows XP Pro and - 5 GB IBM recovery partition. I used BootIT NG to shrink the XP partition down to 23 GB. This left me with a free space of 32 GB. Then, I created a 9 GB FAT32 partition within the free space hoping to use it as a data partition which can be read and written from both XP and FreeBSD. So, now I have - 23 GB Windows XP Pro - 9 GB FAT32 for sharing data between OS's - 21 GB free space (unformatted) for FreeBSD (I havn't installed it yet) and - 5 GB IBM recovery partition ???My first questions - Is this a sound method of slicing my disk? Does the 9 GB FAT32 partition really need to be there? Am I wrong in thinking that FAT32 is accessible from both XP and FreeBSD? Yes, FreeBSD can make use of FAT32 partitions. IIRC it is possible of also installing XP on a FAT32. I've read posts somewhere that I MUST NOT install FreeBSD boot manager during the installation because it will overwrite the master boot record (MBR), and as a result XP will be unbootable. I then must leave the MBR untouched until I finish with the FreeBSD installation and copy /boot/boo1 to another computer on a network (A31p doesn't have a floppy drive). Then, I have to boot from a FreeBSD CD to enter FDisk and make sure the XP partition is set bootable. Reboot it and once I'm in XP, I can copy /boot/boot1 from the networked computer to C:\BOOTSECT.BSD and include a line C:\BOOTSECT.BSD=FreeBSD in my BOOT.INI file. This will give me a boot-from-FreeBSD-slice option the next time I boot my laptop. ???My second questions - Is this approach workable? How do I copy /boot/boot1 to another computer on a network? Can I copy it onto my 9 GB FAT32 slice instead, as I'm not sure if I will be smart enough to set up the LAN connection correctly? Could I write it onto a blank CD? What are the commands involved? ???My third questions - Could someone please suggest how I should partition my FreeBSD slice? As I have 768 MB RAM, here is what I have in mind:- / 512 MB swap 2048 MB /var 512 MB /tmp 1024 MB /usr Rest of disk I have no idea how much disk space I should allocate to /, /var, and /tmp. Can I change them at a later stage? What are UFS and UFS+S and how are they different? I would just allocate 512Mb to swap should be fine. I have just slightly more than 512Mb and 512Mb of ram and I have never had a problem. UFS is the file system FreeBSD uses. The +S means with soft updates. This provides something that does basically the same thing as journalling, but with out speeding up the booting proccess when it is powered down with out being unmounted. ???Forth question - Is it a good idea to just install everything during the first installation? Any recommendations on what I should or should not install please? I personally would install most everything I want to begin with then take the time later to edit make.conf and use the portstree to compile and reinstall optimized binaries of various ports. ???Last questions - During the monitor configuration stage, I have to supply the infomation on a) the horizontal sync range, b) the vertical sync range, and c) the LCD make. How do I find out this information? Does anyone with an A31p know please? I don't know, but it may be worth checking to see what windows is using. If that does not work, there is all ways messing with it till you find one that works nicely. Thank you all very very much any other tips are also welcome. BTW I would not suggest using KDE, despite being a well known wm/desktop enviroment, it is eats a lot of resources and is slow. I would suggest using Fluxbox or another Blackbox clone. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Generally a double-click on a user name will get the file list for that user, but in both of the freebsd versions a double-click brings up the chat window. I cannot find any way to get a file list. Anyone else using either of the DC clients actually able to get file lists and download files from the DC network hubs?

kernel panic question
Would this be a problem with the hardware, kernel, or what? What is happening is I mount /dev/ad2s1e and them move files to it from /dev/ad0s1e. It will go nicely for a second or two then I will get a kernel panic. I also risk getting a kernel panic if /dev/ad2s1e is even mounted. I have had trouble with this befor but did not look to closely into it. The first time I had this problem was when I tried mounting what is now /dev/ad0s1e from /dev/ad2s1e. That drive works nicely on /dev/ad0s1e but did the same thing as this new drive is doing when I tried to put it on /dev/ad2s1e. I managed to create the fs and ect succesfully on the drive when it was mounted on /dev/ads1e originally and manage to write a bit to it, but if I tried to move or write any thing large to it would kernel panic just like this new one is doing. the error message I get is something along the lines of... Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode a few more lines none of which I remember :( then something like interupt: bios a few more lines which I don't remember too The hardware in question is...

Re: kernel panic question
If you want help with this kind of problem, you need to supply evidence. Otherwise people won't bother to help. We don't even know what version of FreeBSD you're talking about here. Sorry about that. FreeBSD 4.7 and did not have a pen and paper around at the time. In general, if you get a panic, you need to provide a dump to find out what's going on. For it to be any use, you should ensure that you have a kernel with debugging symbols. There used to be a section on this in the handbook, but I can't find it any more. There's stuff in the upcoming edition of The Complete FreeBSD, but it won't be out soon enough to help you, so I've put a condensed version up at: http://www.lemis.com/texts/panic.txt (ASCII) http://www.lemis.com/texts/panic.ps (PostScript) http://www.lemis.com/texts/panic.pdf (PDF) This is pretty rough, but it should give you an idea of what to do. If you find anything wrong with the text, please let me know. Don't count on a dump being enough. Check your log files for any messages which might help. And remember, the more work you do to help people help you, the more likely you are to get help. Where would I find those log files at?

Re: Disabling uhci at boot-time
On Thu, 20 Feb 2003 14:14:56 -0500 Dwayne MacKinnon [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hello, I've been tasked with putting FreeBSD on a laptop at work. The problem I'm having is this: The USB controller is setting up as IRQ 10, while another piece of hardware is hard-coded to that IRQ. Hence, the kernel panics on a page-fault at boot time, meaning I can't even start the install. The laptop is a Eurocom 3100b and its BIOS doesn't have a setting to shut off the USB stuff. (I upgraded the BIOS just to see if that would help. It didn't.) I tried to disable USB in the kernel config utility, only to discover that to the kernel config utility uhci doesn't exist. So what I'm asking is this: is there any way around this problem, or do I inform my boss that he's asking the impossible? I don't know if what ye want is possible or not, but the simple solution, yet not pretty, I would do is to remove the hhd put it in another box, install freebsd, recompile the kernel with out USB. Then if ye want USB you can just load the kernel. To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message

Re: Is FreeBSD suitable for a tablet PC?
On Fri, 14 Feb 2003 10:41:31 -1000 Gary Dunn [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I am working on a project that applies open-source philosophy to hardware design and courseware aimed at the secondary school and college level. The centerpiece of the project is a self-made portable computer similar to the newly reborn Windows tablet PC. There are still many design details to be worked out -- thin client vs. full featured, independent workstation, for example -- but one of the most fundamental issues is the choice of operation system. I have been using FreeBSD at work since version 2.something and am completely satisfied with it as a server. Setting up X and a clean user experience was a lot of work. I kept hearing about Linux and how much more it was like Windows, so I bought a box of Mandrake 6.5 and gave it a try. I was very impressed with how smooth the installation went and the resulting workspace -- not just for myself, mind you, but for a hypothetical newbie. I have continued to use Mandrake, and have 8.1 running on my little Sony SR7K notebook with an 802.11b home LAN. (But that was NOT a newbie level task, I can assure you!) Linux is just another unix clone with not that truely seperates it from any of the others... but any ways setting up FreeBSD is simple. Not sure about linux being much more like windows than FreeBSD... /me does not regards niether of them to be any thing like windows... the closest thing they have to windows is KDE which looks some what like windows in that it has a startbar thing... My biggest complaint is poor battery life; about an hour. Even less if I use Xemacs! I continue to have doubts about using FreeBSD for my reference design. To me it seems like using a cargo ship to go fishing. Okay, how about holding school in a sports stadium? Using a deer rifle to kill a mouse? A fire hose to fill a water glass? On the other hand, FreeBSD as a complete OS -- kernel plus ports -- comes the closest to my ideal. The technology is cutting edge, we don't get too tangled up in different versions and feature sets, and there is this wonderful community. Most Linux distros have their own community of supporters, too, but so often they become, well, so passionate. I would enjoy hearing your opinions on how well FreeBSD supports these requirements: o Long battery life (e.g. automatic CPU speed throttle) do a man on apm o Multi-level power management - Full speed - Reduced speed - Suspend - Hibernation man apm should help o 802.11b networking - Automatic configuration in a many-access point setting - Seamless transition to wired or dial-up connections http://www.FreeBSD.org/releases/4.7R/hardware-i386.html moving from connection to connection is easy... never done it with wireless, but have done it with ethernet... doing dial-up on freebsd works nicely o Digitizer input (I have John Joganic's Linux Wacom tablet driver working on my VAIO) This is provided by X... goto /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/input and ye will see what input stuff there is for the version of X ye have installed o Handwriting recognition (Not really there even in Linux) does not exist in either, afaik Finally, a shameless plug: I am looking for help, so if this sounds like something you'd like to participate in please drop me a line and visit my mailing list sign-up page. -kitsune when asking a fox expect a foxy reply To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message
Re: running an x app remotely via ssh
When using a ssh client, putty in your case, and you want X to be forwarded. You need to have a X server running on both machines. If you are making us of putty you will need a X server running on windows. For this you will need cygwin, http://www.cygwin.com/ , and you will need to enable enable X forwarding in putty too.
