Or simply drug abuse?

Not that I read this crap myself, but it might be a help to change the
faith. This perhaps is alternative hocus-pocus for those who run into
issues when being on drugs

Still a little bit on topic, since Beastie might be an acquaintance of
Lord Jesus and Mephistopheles.

Hi BSD -

I know on my websites that more worrisome than someone caught reading my 
poetry as their own is that they have told something is mine that is not.


I was thinking about putting the ports tar on my BSD 10 when I was 
actually successful.  I notice that apparently the talking point xorg 
refresh and the touchstone kde4 artwork seem to be not on your servers.


I was wondering whether even after my service that Lord Jesus has not 
granted me access to a specially fortified server in the basement of a 
Quebec Church Shrine?


Since A.W.O.L bill is against that sort of thing I wonder why Lord Jesus 
is not working with all his might to do so.

I've been using even slower Thinkpads (300MHz), there are a few things
to be aware of.

Check on http://www.thinkwiki.org if the ethernet connection is
supported, also the graphic card (if you need a Windowmanager).
Soundcard can be an issue too.

Try to get some more RAM for it. On internet auctions you find them for
a few bucks, check on the thinkwiki if the type fits in. From 256MB on
it works well, good is 512. The slow processor doesnt matter much if you
have enough RAM.

Since the harddisk is not very large, you may want to take a look to
NetBSD (sorry FreeBSD-gurus). NetBSD is targeted at minimal or exotic
computers, you can easily install the precompiled packages without a
portstree. I use it for all my Thinkpads (Thinkpad 600, T23 and X31).

It _will_ work, it just will take some time. If that isn't
a major concern -- no problem. If the machine is low on RAM,
there should at least be sufficient swap space.

> space (5 GB).

Using them via NFS (when needed) or as read-only source from
a CD could be possible. However, I'd suggest using the NFS
approach during installation time. On the described hardware,
the usage paradigm should be: "INSTALL ONCE, THEN KEEP USING".
If updates are required, using an "external compiler" would
be the best choice. In case you're only using precompiled
packages (installs via pkg_add -r), you don't need the ports
tree at all. For dealing with the system (from /usr/src), if
it has to be present on disk, /usr/obj could be used via NFS
on some scratch disk. There are many possibilities to get the
job done. They all require some time, but it _is_ possible.



> On part 2, do you mean lynx or links?  

I think it was links that also had a GUI port. There may
be other lightweight browsers (like dillo) that one could
consider using. Of course none of them will utilize "Flash". :-)

> but a far cry from Firefox (try Midori?) which have no DOS ports.



> I think there is also w3m?

I know w3m is a very nice text mode browser, I can't say if
it has graphics support.



> Building the kernel is nowhere near as time-consuming as buildworld.

True, but if you update kernel and world, both have to be processes.
Otherwise, you could stay on the installed version level (e. g. 9.0)
and only tweak GENERIC into something that is more efficient. But
in that case, sources should not be altered.

That's normal. :-)

Sure, no big CPU load. I just wanted to illustrate that this old
system could do things that some "modern" PCs fail to do: Just
imagine users complaining about skipping audio when they move
windows across the screen... :-)

And I still have the machine I described. "Mister Coffee" is
currently installed with FreeBSD 8.2, expecting to be used for
experimental projects as an internal file / IRC / maybe OA server.

On part 1, it might be possible to build things on the old machine, but only 
little things.

Ports tree and source tree would really pinch the hard disk space (5 GB).

Would you actually boot the IBM Thinkpad by network, keep source and ports 
trees on a newer computer's hard drive, do the building on the newer computer, 
and install by NFS?  I've thought of doing that, have no intention to upgrade 
FreeBSD 8.2 to 9.0 on old computer, where FreeBSD slice is 12 GB and I'd have 
to rebuild all ports , and in all likelihood bog down.

On part 2, do you mean lynx or links?  

Lynx is text-mode but can show images on a separate screen: I did that with 
DR-DOS 7.03 long ago and more recently FreeDOS.

Links can be built with graphics, there is even a DOS port, but a far cry from 
Firefox (try Midori?) which have no DOS ports.

I think there is also w3m?

Building the kernel is nowhere near as time-consuming as buildworld.

On my older computer, building a custom kernel took about 25 minutes for 
NetBSD, 75 minutes for FreeBSD 8.2, and 130 minutes for Gentoo Linux, and the 
Gentoo Linux kernel proved nonbootable.

On the last part, time required to download an ISO would depend on type of 
connection more than CPU speed.

Actually everything should work fine with window managers you mentioned.

It is very well possible, but you need to pay attention to
a few things:

1. You won't be able to build things from source on that
machine. Consider using packages for installation, or a
second system to build and export (via NFS) the data required.

2. You will have to choose wisely what you install. You

but you need to do some research to find them.

one, because their magic didn't open up to my ignorant

4. Refering to no. 1, you should also aim to build a custom
kernel on another machine that exactly fits the hardware that
you have present in the Thinkpad. Streamline your kernel.
Make it reflect the present hardware configuration. Maybe
there are even some options and tunables to make it run
better than the GENERIC kernel.

The main limiting factor I see is the 64 MB RAM. If you have
the chance, try to upgrade it. I know that's not easily
possible.

Note: I've been using FreeBSD 4 and 5 on a 150 MHz Pentium (1)
with 64 MB (later on: 128 MB) RAM and 8 GB disk. This machine
could compile the world (even though it needed 24 h to do that),

I think it would be possible, but there would not be enough RAM or disk space 
to rebuild the system (make buildworld) or build the bigger applications from 
the ports collection.  You might not have enough RAM to run (Mozilla) Firefox. 

There are some things you could do not involving the fancy stuff: server, maybe?

You could try to find something for older computers on distrowatch.com, such as 
Puppy Linux.

Building big ports, including gcc, really can bog down on an old 
under-resourced computer, even with 256 MB RAM and 12 GB FreeBSD slice.

I speak from experience with both Linux and FreeBSD, through 8.2 on old 
computer.  NetBSD too (5.1_STABLE).

On this old computer, GNOME 3 live CDs and USB failed to boot and get to GUI: 
didn't work at all.

When I first responded on this thread, I didn't think of FreeDOS 
(www.freedos.org), but then you can't run anything close to Firefox on FreeDOS 
or any other DOS.  But FreeDOS would run with a 5 GB hard drive all in one 
FAT32 partition.

Work has been and is being done on FreeBSD to make it feasible to install 
application software via binary patches, that would come in useful on 
low-resource computers.  With 64 MB RAM, I'd look to a window manager like 
IceWM, or maybe JWM or Ratpoison, but certainly not KDE.

An old computer with insufficient RAM for fancy browsers and multimedia can 
still be useful for a server or router.

Sorry, duff advice, don't need to send enquirer off to Linux IMO ;-)

I guess Linux probably can't shrink smaller than BSD,
(though that could be an endless thread, custom kernels & 
striping binaries, & older gcc being a Lot smaller etc)

but Firefox & Gcc will be approx same size on both if same version.

maybe the enquirer doesnt need firefox anyway,
eg the router passing this mail runs 6.4, with 40M ram
doesn't need firefox, does run proxy http & sendmail etc.

Dont forget why Swap was invented. One doesnt Have to have tons of ram.
Things might or not thrash depending on load etc.

However ... 64M with X GUI sounds a stretch, 
but then equally for modern BSD & Linux,

Easier with older smaller versions of OS.

Dear FreeBSD.org,

I would like to order a CD with FreeBSD for an IBM Thinkpad.  What is the
best package to get?  Will it work perfectly?  I want a package with the
manual, man-pages and how to use FreeBSD perfectly in books.


First off: Is this a new machine, or an older one?  IBM hasn't made 
Thinkpads in at least five years: They sold the business to Lenovo.  (Who 
has kept up the quality and design.)


If it's a new machine, which machine is it?  Most of the current-generation 
Thinkpads use the integrated Sandy Bridge graphics.  This is supported in 
-CURRENT, but not in 8.2.  There is also a keyboard interaction at boot 
under 8.2, that has been fixed.



What does Free in FreeBSD mean?  Does it mean Free as in Free of charge?
Or is there an alternate meaning?


Free of charge, free to use, free to read the source, free to modify, free 
to redistribute.  Most definitions of free are covered.  ;)



I'm wanting the best operating system for my laptop.  Is this the one?
Why is it free of charge when I want to pay for it?  I don't want
something stupid.


As others have said 'best' is an opinion, and dependent on which use you 
are putting the laptop to.  It is a very good one, for many uses.


However, given that you sound like a newcomer to the UNIX/OSS software 
world, and that *currently* your likely hardware (if you are buying a new 
Thinkpad) isn't fully supported by the standard distribution, FreeBSD may 
not be for you at this time.  If you are in that case, you'll find yourself 
working with untested and non-finalized software.

It will be necessary to explore some things on the net.  
The Handbook is a good place to start.  There are other things
besides the Handbook that provide good information.  Some are pointed
to on the FreeBSD web page and some you can find with a little searching.

You can also buy some good books on installing, configuring and using
FreeBSD.

If you are unwilling to to the preparation - studying, searching
and downloading, you will probably not be successful.  So, if your
interest is real, start now to walk the walk and not just talk the talk.

FreeBSD is a very good OS, even for a laptop.  You might have to 
verify that drivers are available for the particular peripherals
on the laptop you with to use.

You can purchase a CD set or DVD from which to install the latest
RELEASE of FreeBSD, but after installing, you will want to upgrade
to the latest security update which will happen by download over
the net.   You will also want to install some ports.  You will really
want to install the latest of those as well and that will requite
downloads over the net.  The update and port install utilities all
take care of these things for you.   Read and follow the Handbook.

Unless you choose not to, the OS man pages will be installed when
you do the main installation.   Then when you install a port, it
will install the man page for that port.  So, you can read man
pages locally - offline if needed.

Have fun.  You may think it is too hard, but in just a few days
of work and play, you will discover it is worth the effort.

"Working perfectly" depends on your usage.
If some here tells you "yes" (or "no"), without asking for more _and_

I would suggest to get the most recent RELEASE version.
Currently that's 8.2. Depending on the hardware you are
using, use i386 (the 32 bit system) or AMD64 (the 64 bit
system); note that you can run i386 on 64 bit hardware
without problems in most cases (except you need a specific
64 bit functionality).



> Will it work perfectly? 

This depends on the particular Thinkpad's hardware. See
the list of supported devices. The FAQ's chapter "Hardware
Compatibility" does have a good list:

http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/books/faq/hardware.html

Also see the current release's hardware notes:

http://www.freebsd.org/releases/8.2R/hardware.html

In case of questions, you may ask IBM for statements about their
FreeBSD support. A basic statement from my personal experience:
Whatever hardware is compatible to standards, it will work
without any problems.

Please see "Appendix A. Obtaining FreeBSD" in the FreeBSD
Handbook for information how to get FreeBSD:

http://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/mirrors.html

Also see:

http://www.freebsd.org/where.html

And of course:

http://www.freebsdmall.com/cgi-bin/fm

I think you'll also get suggestions from this list about
which books are recommended; "Absolute FreeBSD" is a book
commonly mentioned:

http://www.absolutefreebsd.com/

It can be ordered from No Starch Press.

Also note that you can - if you _want_ to - turn your local
manpages, the Handbook and FAQ into printable PS, which means
you can selectively print the sections that you need. The
tools to do this are provided by the system.

> is there an alternate meaning?

"Free" means two things here: FreeBSD is a _free_ operating
system within the open source ecosystem; it's developed
by the FreeBSD team. And you can obtain it for _free_,
i. e. for no charge.

http://www.freebsd.org/about.html

Please see the web site as an excellent resource to answer
most of your questions. The main page

http://www.freebsd.org/

contains references to all relevant topics like online documentation,
mailing list archives, wikis and related projects.



> I'm wanting the best operating system for my laptop.  Is this the one? 

This depends on what you intend your laptop to be used for.
It therefore depends on the hardware you want to use, as well
as on the software.



> Why
> is it free of charge when I want to pay for it? 

You actually _can_ pay for it, e. g. by ordering media and
documentation from a vendor, or you can donate money to
the project. The strength of the FreeBSD system is that even
poor people can "afford" it as you don't need a pirated
copy (which is illegal in most legislations) in order to
use a professional, secure and versatile system.

So if you want to pay in order to support FreeBSD, see

http://www.freebsd.org/donations/

for where to direct donations at.

You can see that this is another meaning of "free" in
FreeBSD: You are free to pay for it if you want to.



> I don't want something

Be confident: You won't get.



> I don't want to read the man-pages on the internet.  Or the manual on the

Then FreeBSD is a good choice. All documentation is available
locally (man pages, Handbook, FAQ and so on). You don't need a
web browser or an Internet connection to access it. Most 3rd
party software available for FreeBSD shares this approach and
brings good documentation.



> Does it come with all the applications I need for business and marketing?
>  That's all I need.

No. The FreeBSD operating system brings an operating system,
nothing more or less. You will have to install the programs
you need because FreeBSD is a multifunctional OS, serving on
workstations, servers, combined forms and even embedded
systems. How _should_ it come with business applications
in such a case?

Furthermore, the term "business applications" is very wide.
What _are_ business applications - in YOUR case? Because
in _my_ case, business applications may likely be something
quite different from yours, and from anyone else's.

If you are interested in a FreeBSD system that comes with
KDE and lots of average productivity applications preinstalled
and preconfigured, check PC-BSD:

http://www.pcbsd.org/

See if this fits your needs.

I think the original poster was referring to the fact that Ubuntu actually
has an installer that can run as a Windows application, and will resize
your hard drive for you and install a dual-boot setup.  It does this while
you are running Windows, although it has to reboot the machine.  (Which it
will do automatically for you.)

It's very slick, and would be an interesting addition to FreeBSD, but I
don't think it's likely to be something that will get worked on soon. 
Ubuntu is targeted at non-technical users, especially ones not likely to
have run Linux (or any other open-source OS) before.  FreeBSD is largely
targeted at more technical users, and at the server space instead of the
desktop.  So such a tool would be a high priority for Ubuntu (as it makes
installing the OS much easier for a newbie), it's not the top of the list
for FreeBSD.

Currently you cannot install FreeBSD from withing "Windows",
if this is what you mean. FreeBSD is an operating system
that needs to be booted _on_ the machine it should be
installed to, as the installer requires that OS - just
the same way you cannot simply "try" a "Windows" by
installing it into, let's say... Solaris. :-)

Hint 1: You need to install FreeBSD in order to use it.
This is done by booting FreeBSD.

However, you can "install" (i. e. use) a system image for
a virtualisation software, e. g. for VMWare or VirtualPC.
You can use the default installation approaches (from CD
or DVD, from USB drive), or you can download a "turnkey"
solution that provides a preinstalled and preconfigured
system that you can run within "Windows" (using the VM
solution).

An example is VirtualBSD: http://www.virtualbsd.info/

Hint 2: You can use a VM solution.

You can _easily_ install a dual-boot solution for FreeBSD
and "Windows", but you have to do that from within the
FreeBSD installer, as mentioned above.

You can _also_ use PC-BSD to install a "normal" FreeBSD,
as well as the PC-BSD operating system (derived from FreeBSD).
This is also simple and easy.

Find more info here: http://www.pcbsd.org/

Hint 3: Dual-booting is easy. :-)

During _any_ of the installation methods mentioned, you
can define the target drive and the size of your installation.
Typically it is a hard disk, but it doesn't have to be.

More information is provided by the FreeBSD Handbook and
the FAQ, which you'll find here:

http://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/

http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/books/faq/

FreeBSD provides excellent documentation that helps you
to do the easy task of installation.

All the same, any of you guys ever take this kind of notice seriously ?
I mean, really ?


See, you've actually read the e-mail prior to reading (and thus
accepting or refusing) the "legal" notice.

It's like me sending you an e-mail, with a footer saying "By reading
this e-mail you hereby forfeit all of your fortune, properties and
claims in favor of Pwnd LTD, who shall be the sole and universal
beneficiary, and has just done you good.".

Just because they appear in an e-mail and you've read that e-mail
doesn't mean you've acknowledged said terms, let alone accepted them.


I for one, on principle, decline to abide by such terms, which may in no
case be enforced on me, seeing I never accepted them in the first place.

One would have to get my consent to abide by their legal notice THEN
send me the actual contents.

Now, that would work.
Then again, on principle I would decline said terms so they couldn't
send me whatever they wanted...

I don't see a problem provided the archived mailing list is

Hmmm... There's nothing wrong with this idea, but I doubt it's going to
be implemented in FreeBSD any time soon.  (Only if someone steps up to
the plate and provides patches probably.)  At the moment, FreeBSD is in
the throws of replacing the old sysinstall(8) with a brand-new, written
from scratch installer.  The focus is on getting the installer to
support all of the capabilities of the OS like ZFS or gmirror, and what
you propose is not a priority right now.

You can already build a dual-boot system, but you'll need to know how to
go beyond what the installer provides.  This is a core FreeBSD concept:
learning is desirable, so the OS doesn't try and hide the gory details
under a glossy GUI.  It's a bit off-putting to beginners, but you're
only a beginner for a relatively short time, and the FreeBSD way really
does pay dividends once you have some knowledge.

I heartily recommend PC-BSD for any beginner that wants to get their
feet wet and build a desktop BSD system -- essentially the same role
that Ubuntu is aimed at -- not that it isn't good for seasoned old
campaigners that just want to spin up a desktop quickly either.

Cheers,

Matthew

Hi es_MX internationalization needed.....

2010-06-02 Thread Eric De La Cruz Lugo
Hi to every one.

I  have been checking the mail lists and haven`t found information about es_MX 
localization, in Ubuntu, OpenSUSE and other Linux distributions this can be 
achieved by something like.


# locale-gen es_MX.UTF-8

# locale-gen es_MX
But on FreeBSD I can`t find any command or tool to perform this.

there is a es_ES locale on FreeBSD.

I thinked about generating the es_MX locale with a file like es_MX.UTF-8.src or 
something like that, without success this is beyond my expertise right now.

I need the es_MX because there is a postgreSQL database that "MUST" be encoded 
with the es_MX encoding, for a project am working on.
 
On KDE 4 on FreeBSD 8.0 I can changed the region to Mexico (es_MX), but I can't 
change my locale variables (LC_) on my command line terminal.

they look actually like this:


[cursos] ~> locale
LANG=
LC_CTYPE="es_ES.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="es_ES.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="es_ES.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="es_ES.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="es_ES.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="es_ES.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=
[cursos] ~>

On other server i have OpenSUSE 11.2 and have this:  (the way a needed it).

edelac...@sgi:~> locale
LANG=es_MX.UTF-8
LC_CTYPE="es_MX.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="es_MX.UTF-8"

This is a good place to start, and if someone knows a better spot it will 
probably be indicated. I can't give you an in depth response, but maybe 
something to start with. The Kernel Debugging section of the Developer's 
Handbook may serve as an introduction to a few basics:

http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/developers-handbook/

You can also start right away by examining the .xsession-errors file you 
will find in the users home directory. Also, in /var/log look for the 
Xorg.0.log and Xorg.0.log.old. After restarting from a crash, if you startx 
the first one will only contain info on that startup; the second one (.old) 
may contain some info on what happened at the time of the previous crash, if 
it is indeed the X server crashing. Sometimes any errors to stdout may 
appear in /var/log/messages. 

Sometimes there may be informative error messages present which can be 
Googled, and other times nothing useful. The same with the .xsession-errors 
file - it usually contains information relevant to the applications which 
were running on top of X.

If you are running the nvidia driver and see some evidence that it may be 
responsible for the crash, you could try substituting the nv driver as a 
test. This might help isolate the problem to the nvidia driver. But where to 
go from here is a good question. Sometimes if there is some problem wrt the 
nvidia driver after some kind of upgrade doing a make, make deinstall, and 
make reinstall of the nvidia driver port occasionally fixes something, but 
this is a long shot.

Nvidia also has a web forum you might hunt around in. Also, if you are doing 
startx to start KDE with a .xinitrc file in the users home dir (with 
startkde in here), try it without so the default TWM window manager comes up 
instead of KDE. Then do the restart test and see if it crashes.  This is a 
good way to separate the problem from being X related and/or KDE related.

Hi - identifying cause of crash - a how to please

2010-03-02 Thread David Southwell
Hi

I have a specific situation which causes a system crash on freebsd 7.2 p3 
amd64 on intel quad core.  Can someone teach me how to trace the cause? 

The crash is repeatable in the following circumstances:


(a) User logs in
(b) % startx
(c) kde4 loads and works the session
(d) user logs out x session terminates.
(e) user attempts to start a new x session with:
(f) % startx
(g) system crashes immediately

System requires rebooting to single user mode. Run fsck -y and then go 
multiuser. Whereupon the cycle can be repeated.


This event did not occur until kde was upgraded to kde 4.3.5.

The video card is a winfast PX7800GT providing openGL with dual DVI. The crash  
problem was not present before upgrading to 3.4.5 so whilst not ruling out the 
card I am not assuming it is the video card.

It would be helpful if the procedure could be identified clearly. I will post 
the results available on the web so someone who knows how to interpret them 
could take a look.

Finally should I be asking this question on another maillist?

The above is (far too verbose) information about Appletalk routing.
You presumably have the sysutils/netatalk port installed and activated.

What is your /boot/loader.conf

Do you boot with any options? (such as verbose boot, as an example)

Symtoms like this would indicate you're running this in a virtual
machine.  The virtual machine's hardware clock and BSD is unable to
detect, or USE that clock.  So the kern.hz set at 1000 by default is
screwing up the virtual machine's "hardware" clock.

You can always check out `ports/mail/pine4' from a date before its
removal from the ports/ tree and build it on FreeBSD too.  If you need
help with maintaining a local copy of the relevant ports (`mail/pine4',
`mail/pine4-ssl', and `editors/pico') let me know and I'll write a short
mini-guide for checking out the ports before their removal and building
them as local ports.

The source for these ports is no longer maintained, and they may pose a
security risk if you use them on multi-user machines --- especially if
untrusted users have local shell access --- but if you want to shoot
your foot, the Ports tree already provides gun & ammo to do that :-)

I'm talking about the base system, as opposed to the ports system.  Sorry
about the confusion, I've been reading a lot about core-vs.-library
choices for a couple of different programming languages, and accidentally
swapped terminology when referring to FreeBSD.

That's one way of looking at it.  The obsessive compulsive perfectionist
perspective is that a Handbook is *never* complete, because by the time
you have finished writing about something in a professional, clean and
amusing to read manner, it has been superseded by recent advances :-)

The cross-indexing bits are what made me think about our Wiki while
pondering how to write this sort of stuff.  I will experiment by writing
in plain text first, wikifying bits and pieces later, and see where this
leads me.

I think this is already done with doc <=> wiki stuff.  I am not very good
at writing wiki documentation, but I have installed a Wiki as the starting
page of my laptop's lighttpd instance, in an effort to learn more about
wiki writing by pushing myself to use it for personal notes.

Maybe we can wikify some of the stuff that is not really Handbook-material?

I can definitely try doing that :)

Did you miss the part where Giorgos Keramidas objected to adding a
context specific hack to the FreeBSD Handbook because that would give it

I can see both sides of this argument.  Maybe we need to split up FreeBSD
documentation into two domains, similarly to the way FreeBSD software is
split into two domains (core and ports) -- and thus have a place outside
the FreeBSD handbook for the same, more-than-professional quality of
documentation, but covering things we wouldn't be comfortable putting in
the FreeBSD Handbook itself.

Documenting such local 'hacks' in the Handbook is a bit like rubber
stamping them with the official 'recommended by FreeBSD' seal of
approval.  I am not sure I would like that a lot.  Serious security
problems may exist in stale, unmaintained ports.  It would be a bit

I think that one of FBSD's guiding principles is *correctness*
... or, at least, that's one of the higher values of the
community.  By way of evidence, I present the following
terms, used frequently in correspondence on these lists:


What I find ironic, is that the talent drifts either to fully 
commercial projects, or those which are licensed under BSD - and in 
many cases even both. If I want an unixlike OS that does what I need 
with minimal fuss and where things are added due their merit in 
improving usability/speed/stability rather results in artificial tests 
the OS will be one of the BSD's. The quality of the BSD licensed 
software added with the quality of documentation (Cyrus might be the 
exception as the documentation goes...) just far exceeds anything else 
available for free or "free".


FreeBSD might not support every gadget out there, but for the most 
part, the supported selection has always been good enough for the use 
I have. For that thanks go to the core team and other coders and 
documentation writers as well as people testing releases and betas 
without just shutting up when they hit trouble, but reporting the said 
problems so they will hopefully get fixed for every user.

That's simple. FreeBSD runs very well on old computer you can buy for

I suppose, if the Gentoo/BSD project brings the stability of Gentoo to
the name BSD, we might expect FreeBSD's reputation to be unfairly
tarnished by association.  On the other hand, just as Firefox has proven
to be sort of a "gateway drug" for people on MS Windows who are
encouraged to try something new (and open source) for an OS as well, I
suppose Gentoo/BSD might bring more intelligent people who have something
valuable to contribute to the world of FreeBSD, with only a brief stop in
the land of Gentoo/BSD.

I guess time will tell.

You can always check out `ports/mail/pine4' from a date before its

`mail/pine4-ssl', and `editors/pico') let me know and I'll write a short

I think the keywords here are more 'Juniper' and 'Cisco' (both of whom have
products either based on FreeBSD or incorporating quantities of FreeBSD
code, and neither of whom are in the business of making network cards that
I know of) rather than 'Intel' and 'Broadcom' (not that Intel has anything
to be ashamed of with regard to their support of their NICs under *BSD. If
anything they are the model that we would encourage other companies to
emulate).

In any case, why should companies be constrained to open their code as
the only way of giving back to an opensource community?  I agree
that it would be desirable, but commercial realities are such that it's not
going to happen any time soon.  Companies do have other routes to 'give back'
-- donations of money or equipment, sponsoring development projects or
conferences, providing day-time employment for FreeBSD developers, even just
publicly acknowledging that they use FreeBSD technology.  None of which is
required by the terms of the license, but frequently seems to happen anyhow.

Cheers,

It depends on the kind of new users. The aim of FreeBSD is not to be
the most popular OS out there. Has never been. The main driving force
is to attract good developers who like technical challenges and who
love to tinker. It's nice to have a solid and large user base, but
IMHO, that's not the main priority.

FreeBSD popularity will be affected if the big cats (ie. networking
companies) continue to ""not contribute"" back the
enhancements/modifications to the kernel, networking stack,
optimizations etc etc !

Gentoo userland and emerge tools are easier and elegant though not
certainly superior to FreeBSD make mechanism.
This is based on my personal experience as i heavily use Gentoo Linux
and FreeBSD on older hardware.
And offcourse, i can easily emerge pine 4.64 on Gentoo but there is no
way i can do it on FreeBSD.

Does anybody know where FreeBSD (in particular) (NetBSD and OpenBSD)
is headed ? What is the road map ?

Please don't tell me that *BSD is a nice community project (which it
is) and the charter is to flip burgers (i mean code) for the next
networking company to take the code and run away !

i'm very hopeful that somebody will share some insight on the road map.

It seems you wrote the code, so you have the power. Just check the client's IP 
after accept()ing the connection. Then fork(), close(), etc...

Hello,

If you don't want to do this using server features you should do it in your
program
(like in config file).

It looks like you are writing a server, therefore you can check the
addresses yourself if you don't want to use libwrap. It's easy to do.

Either that, or read host_access(3), or use some other library from the
ports that does the same thing.

Hi all
I will explain the scenario clearly.

I have a server program say server.c listening on some XXX port-number.I
accepts all the client.

Now i want to DENY only the particular client say x.x.x.x/16 .

I want to deny that Client by not using hosts.deny.

For this scenario what can i do?? If anyone knows Let me explain clearly.
Since i am very new to this.please explain clearly.

Justin,

Yes, you want amd64 if this is a modern 64-bit Intel CPU. As was pointed 
out recently when someone asked more or less the same question, the 
"amd" refers to the architecture, not the chip manufacturer.


I know nothing about plesk, but are you sure you *must* have 6.1? The 
legacy production release is now at 6.3. I've never built a 64-bit 
machine, but given the present situation I'd absolutely go with 7.0 for 
a new install, at least for a 32-bit system.


A note, if I may. I have been on this list for many years and can say 
without hesitation that you're unlikely to get an answer when your 
subject line reads "Hi". You may want to repost with a subject line that 
more accurately describes your question.


HTH.

Just a small problem. I'm unable to mount my USB key as a user.  ( I can 
mount it as root,  using the

This is what I get when I try to mount it as a user -

So, I'm a bit puzzled as to what I might have missed.   I've now even 
rebooted a couple of times, but
nothing has changed. I can mount the device as root but not as a user.  
So, any suggestions are very
welcome...  Thanks very much for your time  :-)

If you are using GNOME desktop, then you do as following step:

That's GNOME Rules: http://www.freebsd.org/gnome/index.html ;;

Sincerely,




I guess it all depends on which video card he is using. My ATI X1600 Radeon 
doesn't
support 1280x800 (to my knowledge...)
So it is possible that his video card doesn't either?!




  



The OP could also try to use the port 915resolution that was designed to 
enable the 1280x800 resolution on Intel graph. chipsets.
If he reads the information that comes with it, he should not need more 
help.
