How do I do wide-reinstall ? That's nowhere a correct terminus technicus or established word. It just means that, for example, if you update one small library that is incorporated by a dependency of a dependency of a library part of Gtk, you need to recompile everything in relation to Gtk, all Gtk programs, libraries and dependencies. Manually tracing down the dependency could be possible, and maybe "manual overrides" with symlinks and libmap.conf can work, but if you update something here, in conclusion something there, it could lead to even more trouble, forcing you to do much more updates than you are willing to perform. > I don't mind > pulling in and building a few more ports as long as it is not the whole > GNOME2 metaport.

Exactly my experience with some libjpeg update some years ago. :-) The rule usually is: If you update a port others depend on (read: depend on a specific version), you also need to update those ports.

It seems that there is some "library collision". If you update things, update _all_ of them, in order to avoid version trouble. The best approach (in your case) would be: Install the OS, do not install anything from ports yet. Get the ports tree. Update it to the recent version. Now start installing stuff, and do it from the _same_ ports tree. Alternative: If you go with the programs installed from the media (e. g. the DVD), use pkg_add to get binary installed applications. In case you insist on compiling, get the ports tree of the _state of your installation_ (i. e. the tarball from the DVD) and use that. Do not update it. In this case, you can easily mix compiling from source and installing via binary packages. This alternative is not suggested now. :-) > While this is not > exactly a catastrophe, it is rankling to say the least. Maybe some > gentleman has faced this problem and has sorted it out.

Problem with libpng + Mozilla applications on FreeBSD 8.3
Hi All, I recently purchased a laptop (Intel Pentium dual core) and installed FreeBSD 8.3-i386 on it using the 'All' canned distribution. I then downloaded the latest ports tarball and started building them. Some of the ports required a newer version of the graphics/png port, so I did a deinstall and reinstall in graphics/png. This removed the previous binary libpng.so.6 and placed version libpng15.so.15 in its stead. Things went wrong here - the GNOME desktop started crashing with the panel not working and practically all desktop icons gone. So I guessed that the canned version of GNOME in the installation DVD had a dependency on libpng.so.6. I reinstalled FreeBSD 8.3, and copied /usr/local/lib/libpng.so.6 to /usr/lib/libpng.so.6 before building the ports a second time. This time things went a lot more smoothly. GNOME works. But Mozilla applications like Firefox and Thunderbird present a peculiar problem - the buttons on the Tool bar/Menu bar do not have any image on them. While this is not exactly a catastrophe, it is rankling to say the least. Maybe some gentleman has faced this problem and has sorted it out. If anyone can provide a hint on how to fix the problem, I would be grateful indeed.

The use of Parenting Coordinators is a relatively new intervention to manage high-conflict custody cases. Parents retain and compensate a clinician to arbitrate ongoing child-related disputes either by private agreement or by Court Order. That clinician then becomes the Parenting Coordinator. What does the Parenting Coordinator do? The Parenting Coordinator works directly with the parents to help them communicate more effectively and avoid conflicts about child-related issues. Parents who are constantly in court about child-related issues (such as a holiday visitation schedule or the sharing of information about a child’s academic or medical developments) might benefit from opinions and guidance to help make communication more effective. In addition, the parenting coordinator mediates issues, and when the parents are unable to agree, the parenting coordinator is often given the power to arbitrate what the result should be. Ultimately, the court has the final say over child custody and visitation issues, but a Parenting Coordinator can drastically reduce the need to go to court and therefore reduce conflict for the children in families involved in such disputes.

FreeBSD uses the standard interface /usr/bin/lp*, while CUPS
brings its own commands at /usr/local/bin/lp*; it also differs
in the amount of commands (e. g. additional lpstat command).
> How can I print from inside the applications?
CUPS should provide a default printer ("lp" is the default
name, but it can be anything else). You can define the
environment variable PRINTER to point to the desired default
printer which will be addressed whenever you print from
inside an application. In my case,
% echo $PRINTER
Laserjet
shows that all lp* commands will address "Laserjet", and
all application data will go to that printer spool.
> Take Firefox or

No. You don't need an individual printer driver for each
application. :-)
Basically, printing from an application means that this program
will create the print content in PS format and send it to the
printer spool (identified by the default printer name). From
there on, the printer filter (CUPS in your case) will pick up
the PS data and hand it to the printer, or convert it to the
printer's language (e. g. PCL) and then send this result to
the printer.
When I go File -> Print... in Firefox, "PostScript/default"
is the name of the printer. Set properties if needed (e. g.
A4 paper size, margins, whatever you need). After pressing
Enter, the print job should show up in your printer queue.
% lpq
Laserjet is ready and printing
Rank Owner Job Files Total Size
1stpoly 541 (standard input) 555466 bytes
Note that CUPS may require "lpstat", not the standard "lpq".
Some applications provide a temporary file name, or the name
of the input file; in case of Firefox you can see that the
printing content has been sent to the printer spool via
standard input.
> There are only two choices "Printer to File" and "Print to LPR".
This should be correct.
> Printing to LPR does not work at all as I think it references /bin/lpr
> instead of /usr/local/bin/lpr.
If you use CUPS, you need to use its print job entry tools,
/usr/local/bin/lp*. In the "properties" dialog window, the
print command of my Firefox (2.0.0.20_9,1) is:
lpr ${MOZ_PRINTER_NAME:+'-P'}${MOZ_PRINTER_NAME}
This is the lpr found FIRST in the path.
% which lpr
/usr/bin/lpr
For CUPS, it does have to be the other lpr. If you use CUPS
*INSTEAD* of the default system tools, there's an option in
"make config" that allows you to overwrite the system tools
in the default location. You can, however, work with symlinks
to "redirect" the commands to their location in the local/
subtree, or simply rename the system tools lp* to lp*.sys.

Nothing attached. :-)

No need. You just have to use the correct tools (CUPS's tools)
to address your default print queue.

This is what Firefox does itself.

Printing from inside the applications in FreeBSD 8.1 with CUPS
Hello FreeBSD fans, After a lot of work, I managed to get my printer work with CUPS with appropriate filters. Now, I can print the test page using http://localhost:631 and also I can print any postscript file from command-line. cat ~/MyPostscriptFile.ps | /usr/local/bin/lp Note that I can not print using simple "lp" command as there a "lp" in /bin/lp. How can I print from inside the applications? Take Firefox or gedit for instance. How can I print from those apps using File>Print menu? I need to add stuff to those dialogs which open from File>Menu. There are only two choices "Printer to File" and "Print to LPR". Printing to LPR does not work at all as I think it references /bin/lpr instead of /usr/local/bin/lpr. (Snapshot attached) How can I add more options in this dialog? Right now, in order to print I choose Print to File "as PostScript" and use command line cat PostScriptFile | /usr/local/bin/lp to print.

I think the best way is to modify headers to depend on compiler flags
(__i386/__amd64). This makes such cross compile seamless for all future
attempts to cross compile.
The problem I see is that there are currently 83 includes of
headers from outside the machine/ hierarchy.
cd /usr/include && grep -r "Looks like all of them should be made conditional on compiler flags like
this:
...
#if !defined(__i386)
#include
#else
#include
#endif
...
Or rather pointing to some location (if any) where 32 bit headers would
normally reside on amd64 host.
Do you think this is reasonable?
Should I make a patch, or maybe further discuss on hack...@?

Thank you Dan, this flag worked.
But I found a strange discrepancy between 32bit and 64bit.
When I compile the program below in 64 bit, I get the correct result.
With 32 bit executable compiled on 64 bit system like you suggested
there is another (wrong) result. On 32 bit system result is also
correct, the same as with 64 executable.
This is a very strange discrepancy. rm_eo field is zero in the match
result which is wrong. I can't think of any explanation for it.

I updated my system from FreeBSD 8.0 to 8.1 using the tool freebsd-update.As far as I know this tool only updates the core system and user land utilities,thus,all other apps are not updated. I use the gnome desktop,and I regularly receive the warning from Software Updater that I have 240,or so,applications not updated etc.,and if I want to update them. My question is: update them through the ports system?(compiling them all?) or binary update? Are there tools capable of doing that using the command line?(binary update of apps not in the core system or userland utilities,but also important regarding security questions,for example). ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

Thanks > very much, Bill No. FreeBSD can run many Linux applications under emulation (and possibly some Sco applications, but that code branch has rotted due to disuse). It can't run Mac OS X applications though. Despite certain similarities between FreeBSD and the unix underpinnings of Mac OS X (darwin) i's not possible to run even a command-line program from Mac OS X on a FreeBSD box. Not that that's a particularly interesting thing to do. Obviously what you want to run are all those nice graphical apps written in cocoa and whaterver else is flavour of the month at Apple. There is simply *no* chance of that: the graphical environment is Apples' proprietary code, and they aren't going to be releasing it any time soon. Without the graphical layers, trying to get a Mac application running is an exercise in futility. Why don't you explain what exactly you're trying to achieve: free alternatives to most Mac applications are generally available. They won't be anything like as slick, and functionality will only be approximately the same, but they might do.

Hello Pieter,
ISIS3 utilises the very same revision of libprotobuf as FreeBSD has in
the ports repositorium (libprotobuf.so.4.0.0, aka protobuf-2.2.0). The
backtrace follows, it is a little bit lengthy ...
Ok, I can reproduce this locally. The cause is incorrect compiler flags.
Basically one must use `pkg-config --cflags protobuf` to get the correct
CFLAGS and `pkg-config --libs protobuf` for the correct libraries.
Most likely one or both of the following were missing during the
compilation/linking of ISIS: -D_THREAD_SAFE -pthread
Regards,
Pieter
You're right. Thank you very much. After applying the output of
pkg-config --libs protobuf to the proper make file, everythng went as
expected!
Regards and thanks,

Gaining information, especially those that have a certain worth (such as corporate data), is one important goal of criminals across the whole Internet. Offering opportunities, given by the fact that such "online live storage" clients and servers run MICROS~1 software (which is very well known for its high quality, haha), may turn such data silos into interesting targets. I'm sure that criminals have already found out about this fact, they're just waiting for more and more corporate "decision carriers" to adopt to all these modern techniques: "If we store our valueable data on those web servers, it will save us backup costs!"

Even in single-user mode, you almost always need an editor. Which is why you have ed(1) - both in /bin and in /rescue - and /rescue/vi (although that needs a bit of tweaking due to the /etc/termcap problem). Bear in mind that /usr/bin/vi is over 300K, compared to the whole of /bin which is ~950K (if you avoid double-counting entries like /bin/csh and /bin/tcsh which are hardlinks to the same file), so you need to convince people who think /bin should stay small to let it grow by a third to save people learning ed(1).

The workaround is to unplug your USB mouse just before the boot process begins, and plug it back in once you get the console. I have googled for the above 2 problems and there seem to many folks suffering from the ills, with no solution except the ones I have listed above. And these problems almost always occur on AMD multi-core systems. I hope the next release will address these problems, as well as a pretty reasonable request from me much earlier to move vi from /usr/bin to /bin. Even in single-user mode, you almost always need an editor. -- Regards Manish Jain invalid.poin...@gmail.com +91-96500-10329 Laast year I kudn't spell Software Engineer.

The fact that /dev/sndstat exists means that there is a sound driver
that works. From the contents you can see that it is indeed the snd_hda
driver ("HDA Realtek ALC885 "). You can also see that there are four
sound outputs. Currently the digital HDMI is the default.
You can configure the sound hardware through sysctls. If you run "sysctl
hw.snd" you'll see a list of things you can change. With 'sysctl -d' you
can see what a particular sysctl does. In this case one that is
interesting is 'hw.snd.default_unit'. The different outputs in
/dev/sndstat will be connected to different sockets on the machine
(e.g. front/back panel). Try setting hw.snd.default_unit to 1, 2 or 3
and see if that helps.
It could be that you have to unload and reload the snd_hda module after
setting the default channel. You might also have to restart the volume
control applet.

Ok. I think it should be a bug that the mouse isn't properly detected
when connected at boot, but since the USB stack has been replaced in
8-CURRENT, I don't know if anyone is willing to go bughunting in the 7.x
USB stack.

That is not abnormal. A lot of mice need special zaxis mappings.

Then use an xterm instead of a gnome-terminal. Acroread depends on Linux
emulation. Maybe you're missing some bits there?

Dear Sirs, all of my installed Qt4-applications are missing pixmaps/icons for knobs and menus - the mouse-sensistive highlighting and literals are working finde, but no pixmaps/icons.

True. /usr/local/lib/compat/pkg
> Applications that depend on updated libraries get version-bumped when
> the library major version gets changed
Not true. Only direct dependants get version bumped and not consistently
either. To recompile all dependants against the latest version of a library,
one has to find out which port the older version in /usr/local/lib/compat/pkg
belongs to and forcibly upgrade all deps of that package, using
`portupgrade -fr'.
I use the following little php script to identify programs/libraries still
using old libs:
#!/usr/local/bin/php -q
/dev/null| grep compat/pkg';
$search_paths = array('bin', 'sbin', 'lib', 'libexec');
chdir($localbase);
foreach($search_paths AS $path)
{
echo("==> $path\n");
$files = glob("$path/*");
foreach($files AS $file)
{
$check = shell_exec(sprintf($cmd_fmt, $file));
if( empty($check) )
continue;
// pretty print reformat
$check = preg_replace('/^.*?=>/m', "\t\t=>", $check);
echo("\t$file depends on:\n$check");
}
}
?>
Given time, I could probably come up with something fully automated, but in
practice, it boils down to 2 or 3 libraries, usually of the sort gettext,
expat, vorbis, xml/xslt.
It's not full-proof, because some paths aren't searched, for
example /usr/local/openoffice, just adjust the search_paths array if you need
to.

How to check applications vs. libraries
Hello, I am used to install FreeBSD applications by using the port collection. I also update regularly (twice a month or something) the apps, using 'portupgrade -a -N' on a refreshed port collection. Here are my questions: - How can I check that the apps that have been build with certain libraries still work when some of the libs have been updated? - Is it possible then to rebuild the selected set of apps that have been 'corrupted' by the library upgrade (classicaly from liba.1 to liba.2)? If yes, how? or in other words, is there an equivalent to the Gentoo Linux 'revdep-rebuild' function?

I missed the first question, but we are using a Taiwanese remote
access system (a box with 32 modems inside to receive incoming dial-up
connections) based on FreeBSD (2.something I guess) as well as a
satellite receiver from UDcats (www.udcat.com) based on FreeBSD too.

Is it possible that you're low on RAM, and the system has to swap in a bunch of stuff to let you task-switch to Opera or GT? Is it only the combination of GT & Vim, or do you sometimes encounter this long delay when switching between applications doing other things? I have of course looked at top when this problem occurs. CPU usage is about 2%, and there is no significant memory usage either. It would be helpful to know what state the GT & vim processes were in, too. -- -Chuck ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

But this will not help you "make use of existing Windows (XP) installation". I believe the OS itself, at the very least, must be installed by qemu - correct me if I am wrong.

It's not _designed_ to work that way, but given the fact that "everything is a file" in Unix, it's entirely possible that it will work.
