Re: question on linux-base installs

My question though probably has two parts or so so I'll try to elaborate them a bit. I have been using the linux-mozilla 1.4 port a lot so I can take advantage of the plugins. The one thing I have found with linux-base 8 is that the java plugins don't work and have a common error which I have seen with glibc or other problems. Can one install two different linux-base versions? I would like to go to linux-base 6 so I can get the java plugin working in linux-mozilla. I don't see a java version which works with linux-base 8 and will work as a plugin. Any issues with having two versions of linux base installed or should I just deinstall the version 8 and install the linux base 6 stuff? Getting linux-mozilla and java to work is always a bit tricky: I have got linux-mozilla1.5rc2 linux_base-8.0_1 linux-sun-jdk-1.4.2.01 and use the plugin found in .../jre/plugin/i386/ns610-gcc32/libjavaplugin_oji.so This also works with linux-realplayer, acroread-5 and linux-flash plugins.

black screens and fat32 and fsck, oh my...
Note1: my consoles (alt-F[1-8]) are currently black. By black, I mean they show nothing. The monitor shows no picture and after a few seconds it will go into power saving mode. Oddly, when in power saving mode, it doesn't give the normal on-off-on-off with the light that it steadily does. It's more of a tired person catching their head as soon as they start to fall. It is on, goes off and immediately comes back on for the normal time, goes off and quickly catches it, etc. Note2: The USB hard drive is fat32, connected via USB1.1 host. Note that I said my _hard drive_ is fat32. I went into fdisk with every intent of creating a partition to format and saw a fourth partition. I deleted that, created a first, exited fdisk. Upon lsing /dev, I saw no partitions at all for the drive -- partition 4 was gone, 1 was nowhere to be found. Someone told me to use /dev/da0. So I did. This drive doesn't work on windows boxes, btw -- they say it's unallocated space. Note3: [~]# mount /dev/da0 /mnt/USB mount: /dev/da0 on /mnt/USB: incorrect super block Hmm.

[~]$ XFree86 -version XFree86 Version 4.3.0 Build Operating System: FreeBSD 5.1 i386 [ELF] Build Date: 18 June 2003 Story: Woot. New 60 gb USB drive, using a notebook hard drive. Portable, smallest notebook drive I have that fits, good external storage for this poor BSD box with about 3 gigs total on it. Course, I often rip out the USB cable of the poor fat32 drive without umounting it. I try one day: [~]# mount /dev/da0 /mnt/USB mount: /dev/da0 on /mnt/USB: incorrect super block Oh, no, I think. I need to run fsck now. So I proceed to do so: [~]# fsck /dev/da0 ** /dev/da0 ** Phase 1 - Read and Compare FATs *drive read and write lights light up, stay as such for about 1 minute, at which time the hard drive in the BSD box starts crunching away, lagging everything* top, a few tens of seconds in: Swap: 384M total, 281M used, 103M free, 73% in use... *drive resumes reading/writing, top reports swap usage as 107M Free. The BSD box resumes crunching on the internal hard drive, I go, Oh shit -- Mozilla's the first thing to go! I quickly control-C fsck, it having no effect. It keeps going. In a mad rush, I copy this e-mail to vi before I lose it. Only lost notes 1 to half of 3.* So, to recap, and after fsck died and took my mozilla with it: [~]# fsck /dev/da0 ** /dev/da0 ** Phase 1 - Read and Compare FATs fsck: /dev/da0: Killed dmesg: swap_pager_getswapspace: failed swap_pager_getswapspace: failed pid 81209 (fsck_msdosfs), uid 0, was killed: out of swap space fsck ran out of swap space and killed mozilla along with it. Now, that's the basis of what happened when I lost my consoles -- I couldn't get the drive to mount after I fsck'd, so what else to do but try it again? I do, and it killed X completely. Damn. Restart x, try mount, no go... so, I start fsck in a terminal (ctrl-alt-F3). It goes and goes, eventually it dies. Terminals still work, I believe, so I try it again, alt-F9 back into my X to play.. fsck fails with the usual great system lag and the death of X. But I'm thrown to a black console, not a text prompt with an error from X saying what went wrong. Alt-F[1-8], all black. Monitor turns off. Damn. Alt-F2 one more time, startx and here I am for the last week or so. I can use X just fine, but all my consoles are black. Anyone know why this happened? Does anyone have a way to get my consoles back? rebooting isn't fun. But, I'm perfectly willing to help debug something -- it's a personal desktop machine, so I can easily tolerate downtime and spend a bit of time working with things, if any debugging suggestions are given (note, I have no idea how to use any debugging utils, so you'd have to give me very specific directions). With that, this is perhaps the third or fourth time I've lost all my terminals in such a way. I've never experienced this on 4.7, and I don't remember if all times were related to this fsck and taking gobs of swap space. Also keep in mind my dmesg is full of swap_pager_getswapspace: failed, so I can't see if anything was given when the error happened. Finally, for those who don't know, the proper
Re: Verifying integrity of Backup Tapes
I was doing incrementals, and since my amverify failed on one of my tapes, I found that doing incrementals in my case is a bad idea if I can fit a full backup of all my data onto one tape. Now I am doing a level 0 on every run. Amverify get's to about the 6th filesystem I am dumping to tape and gives me an Input/output error. I know it's not the end of the tape, otherwise amdump would say so. FYI: These are travan 10/20 tapes. I know, not the best choice. I am trying to convince my boss to replace it with a DDS4 drive, as the DDS4 tapes are less expensive. These are $40 a piece, whereas the DDS4's are $13 a piece and hold twice as much data.

Unfortunately during the use of your backup schema the tapes have to degrade. If it's a DLT400 tape or even a DDS# series I can see the need to hang on to them for some time to insure the cost of the media was repaid. Might it be best though to question the integrity of using a media that may have reached it's usable lifespan? As well depending on your method of backup, say full, 1/4, 1/2, 1/4, 1/8, etc. one tape that has a problem with the data on it will throw the entire sequence of backups. And if you have full backups, skipping the incremental, you might save yourself the hassle of a wrecked sequence of incrementals, yet the entire concept of backup is lost with bad media.

There's actually two different programs both referred to as 'pmake' here, both of which may possibly have descended from a common ancestor. The system 'make' command is referred to as PMake within the system documentation -- /usr/share/doc/psd/12.make/paper.ascii.gz to distinguish it from an earlier make(1) program supplied with previous Unix versions. Nowadays the 'pmake' name usually serves to distinguish the BSD system make from GNU make or 'gmake'. The system make doesn't really have it's own separate version number any more, as like most utilities, it is an integrated part of the whole FreeBSD userland. There's no licensing restrictions on how you can use the system make, other than the usual 2 clause FreeBSD license about creating derivative make(1) programs and so forth. /usr/ports/devel/pmake is another make(1) derivative, but in this case the code emphasises parallellism in the make process -- even to the extent of being able to spread a compilation job around a network of servers. The licensing terms are more restrictive than the standard system make.

Re: wake-on-lan support? (WOL)
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hi, Wake-On-Lan (WOL) is something that has next to nothing to do with the installed OS. If it's a x86 PC you need a ATX power supply and board, a network card that supports WOL, have the powerconnector of the network card connected to the board, so it has power even if the machine is powered down. You need to enable it in the PC bios and for some NICs also in the NIC's BIOS as well (e.g. RTL 8139) using a NIC specific tool (usually under DOS). Then you should do a soft powerdown (e.g. halt -p) and then send the magic packet to the subnet the WOL machine is in. Unfortunatly there are also different magic packets send by different tools and some of the are not available on FreeBSD (e.g. Donald Becker's ether-wake, which works for me).

xinit: xf86OpenConsole: Server must be running with root permissions
I have problems with my startx script,see my other email when I invoke startx, it seems to 'freeze' for a minute or so,then starts. Before fixing the startx issue (I think startx has been overwritten by the fluxconf-XFree86-libraries-4.3.0 installation), I tested xinit after setting the root setuid bit of the X server (which on my machine points to XF86_SVGA).According to the xinit error,I should be using Xwrapper to start the server or xdm. We strongly advise against making the server SUID root!. So,with the setuid bit set,xinit works,but the elegant solution would be to use Xwrapper.How can I use Xwrapper ? Does it accept a server name to execute ? When you say 'runlevel 5' do you mean the kernel securelevels (i remember runlevels used as boot levels in linux) ?

LIke apache, mysql. php or postnuke etc. Then go to /temp/whaterver and do the ./configures/makes etc. I had to remove all those directories for space. I never had removed them after doing the installs. There were like 30-40 of them. I was then wondering about what if I fubar my apache or php or mysql and need to reinstall. ? Am I okay in that I can untar and redo the install process ? Or do they need the original compile I did ? And what happens if I want to add some options to the compile/make process after I have removed the directories from the original install or need to recompile with a new configure option ?

Re: Help With 'find' Syntax
- Original Message - From: David Carter-Hitchin [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Drew Tomlinson [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, October 31, 2003 5:04 PM Hi Drew, Find is one of those classic commands for confusing people. One just gets used to it over time. The behaviour of find varies significantly with different unixes under different shells. Which shell are you using? tcsh Under bash this command does what you want: find / -mtime 7 -size +1024c -ls -o -ctime 7 -size +1024c -ls the sense here is: find / (-mtime 7 -size +1024c -ls) -o (-ctime 7 -size +1024c -ls) meaning find (i.e. examine all files) from / and either a) print (-ls) files modified exactly 7 days old and greater than size 1024 chars (bytes). or (-o) b) print (-ls) files whose inode creation times are exactly 7 days old and greater than size 1024 chars. If neither a) nor b) are true for a file found under / then it is silently ignored. You may find the following note from man find helpful: # All primaries which take a numeric argument allow the number to be pre- # ceded by a plus sign (``+'') or a minus sign (``-''). A preceding plus # sign means ``more than n'', a preceding minus sign means ``less than n'' # and neither means ``exactly n''. So that is why I put a + in from of 1024 - to find files over 1024 bytes (c). This is the piece I was missing. Thanks! So in your example below: find /usr \( -mtime 6 -ls -size 100 \) -o \( -ctime 6 -ls -size 100 \) -print You are trying to find files that are exactly 100 512k blocks in size. Admittedly the files you found were not of this size and I don't know why they were found - I can replicate this on my machine here, but I don't know why - perhaps it is the file allocation. This is why I chose 1024c instead of block size. (And why is this file listed twice, anyway?) Perhaps because there was a symbolic link pointing to it (as shown by the '2' before the permissions). Ah yes, that's why? Thanks for your help and time. Now if I could just figure out where my disk space went... I'm still not seeing anything significant. I'll go back and look (now that I know how) at Oct. 24 and see if I can find anything there. Thanks again!

I can't give you very exact advice here, because I'm still running 4.9 myself, but I think you want to advise the devfs system by setting up rules for these nodes, so that (for example) /dev/dsp will refer to the device that you want. The devfs(8) utility seems to be designed for this, and I suspect there is a system startup script intended to initialize such rules, if you can just find the right place to configure it. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

What quirks (if any) did you need to use. In short: no, it isn't functioning still, but read on... I've got a Soyo 128MB drive here, but I suspect that the innards may be very similar. I'm hoping that whatever you used to get yours working will also work for mine Is this a CigarDrive? If yes, then probably your are in the same boat... Actually, i took a second round attempt to make the thing work. A week or two after my postings there were commits to usb and CAM systems, after which the line in dmesg umass0: A-DATA Technology Inc. USB Mass Storage Device, rev 2.00/0.01, addr 3 changed into umass0: A-DATA Technology Inc. USB Mass Storage Device, rev 2.00/0.01, addr 3, 8070i (ATAPI) over Bulk-Only See this 8070i (ATAPI) over Bulk-Only part? I have a bad feeling that ATAPI can be a key word for my problems. (Before someone asks: yes, atapicam was also compiled into the kernel.) Anyway, i decided to try some quirks not only for scsi_da.c, but also for umass.c. To do so for my particular hardware, i had to add HW identifiers to src/sys/dev/usb/usbdevs and then to remake corresponding usbdevs* files using makefile in this directory. The change was: Index: /usr/src/sys/dev/usb/usbdevs === RCS file: /home/ncvs/src/sys/dev/usb/usbdevs,v retrieving revision 1.11.2.48 diff -c -r1.11.2.48 usbdevs *** /usr/src/sys/dev/usb/usbdevs 2 Sep 2003 14:35:17 - 1.11.2.48 --- /usr/src/sys/dev/usb/usbdevs 11 Sep 2003 13:50:54 - *** *** 1002,1007 --- 1002,1010 product PROLIFIC PL2303 0x2303 PL2303 Serial adapter (ATEN/IOGEAR UC232A) product PROLIFIC PL2305 0x2305 Parallel printer adapter product PROLIFIC ATAPI4 0x2307 ATAPI-4 Bridge Controller + product PROLIFIC PL2515 0x2515 PL2515 Embedded hub + product PROLIFIC PL2517 0x2517 PL2517 Mass Storage Device + /* Putercom products */ product PUTERCOM UPA100 0x047e USB-1284 BRIDGE Values initially were taken from the output of usbd -vv Then i put some dummy quirk into umass.c - it only does a printf() (PL2517 quirk was applied). It worked, but something strange (to me) happened: message was printed three times in a row! Well, possibly this is not strange - i'm not a C person to read devices probing code... Then i tried some quirks mentioned here and there, but to no avail... and here my research stopped (lack of time). So, until now the bottom line is: If your device is made with PL-2515 chip - you'll probably will have the same problems. Actually, i even opened mine, and it really contains this Prolific chip.

Genesys USB Storage Problem
Hi all,
I've installed 4.9-RELEASE without major problems on a Thinkpad X31.
I'm trying to access my old 20GB IBM laptop IDE drive via an external
USB drive case, but keep getting the well-known
Nov 1 19:15:55 asparagus /kernel: umass0: BBB reset failed, IOERROR
Nov 1 19:15:55 asparagus /kernel: umass0: BBB bulk-in clear stall failed,
IOERROR
Nov 1 19:15:55 asparagus /kernel: umass0: BBB bulk-out clear stall
failed, IOERROR
every 5 seconds. The drive has 5 filesystems on it (it was the boot disk
for my last laptop); I can mount and read the root filesystem as
/dev/da0s1a.
All others (/dev/da0s1e and onwards) give me the IOERROR. I can
occasionally
mount them, and list files, but copying them creates empty files, or times
out. I am not 100% sure that the drive itself is not physically damaged,
as it will not in the new laptop.
I've tried to add the following to /usr/src/sys/cam/scsi/scsi_da.c
(although
to be honest, I am not entirely sure what I'm doing here):
{
{T_DIRECT, SIP_MEDIA_FIXED, GENESYS, *, *},
DA_Q_NO_SYNC_CACHE
},
Here's all the USB-relevant boot messages:

Mounting USB drives and PCI USB and ieee1394 drives
1) I am also trying to mount a usb hard drive. I have found a number of articles on doing this but none of them seem to work completely or the articles reference older versions of FreeBSD and I cannot seem to find an analogous thing in a Release 4.8. My motherboard has two built-in USB1.0 ports. When I plug in my drive I get: Umass0: In system Design USB Storage Adapter, rev 2.00/11.05, addr 2 da0 at umass-sim0 bus 0 target 0 lun 0 da0: IC25N030 ATSC04-0 CA30 Fixed Direct Access SCSI-0 device da0: 650KB/s transfers da0: 28615MB (58605120 512 byte sectors: 64H 32S/T 28615C) This is great (I think). I am able mount the drive by doing a: mount -t msdos /dev/da0s1 /usb I then get a msg saying: (da0:umass-sim0:0:0:0): Read(6)/write(6) not supported, increasing the minimum_cmd_size to 10. I do a df and I see the drive listed. I can see the files and navigate the drive. In fact I added this mount cmd to my fstab with a noauto option I do a umount /usb then a df and I see that the drive is no longer listed. When I physically disconnect the drive from the mother board I get: #umass0: at hub0 port 1 (addr 2) disconnected (da0:umass-sim0:0:0): lost device (da0:umass-sim0:0:0): removing device entry umass0: detached My intuition tells me this is not good. If I then plug the device into the next USB1.0 port I get: umass0: In system Design USB Storage Adapter, rev 2.00/11.05, addr 2 umass0: BBB reset failed, TIMEOUT umass0: BBB bulk-in clear stall failed, TIMEOUT umass0: BBB bulk-out clear stall failed, TIMEOUT over and over again then (da0:umass-sim0:0:0:0): got CAM status 0x4 (da0:umass-sim0:0:0:0): fatal error, failed to attach to device (da0:umass-sim0:0:0:0): lost device (da0:umass-sim0:0:0:0): removing device entry Does anyone have any ideas on how to address this/fix this? 2) My next question is kind of related but different. I have a PCI card that has 3 x USB2.0 ports and 2 x ieee1394 ports (Smartdisk with a NEC OHCI Compliant IEEE1394 Host Controller IRQ3 PCI Slot 3 PCI bus2, device15, function0). a) How do I confirm that FreeBSD is aware of the card and that the driver is operating correctly etc. How do I do that for my Ethernet card for that matter? During my install there were no conflicts. On boot-up it seems FreeBSD is able to recognize it. b) If/when I plug it a USB/Firewire drive into this card how is the device name specified? Or is there a command to figure this out? c) Is msdos the correct filesystem designation? d) How can I mount/unmount the drive? Is the firewire port different. e) How are the multiple usb/firewire ports designated/handled? ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: 4.8 on i386
Hi, Still haven't resolved the quandry of 8.4 release installation failures on my box. Initially in upgrade there are two firewire extraction failures, then old data is moved to /tmp/etc .

Even better, develop a patch to update the port yourself (see the Porter's Hanbdook) and send that to the maintainer to make their job easier. For unmaintained ports ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) you should submit the update using send-pr(1). Also why is such an old version of perl 5.003 still in the freebsd base when 5.8 is out ?

When I transfered some files under linux the speed of the transfer is somewhere around 10MB/s but under freebsd (5-1p10) it is not more than 1MB/s :( Is it running in USB1 mode?

If this doesn't work for you--or if it works on the text console but not in X, or if it only works in some X terminal emulators but not in others--make sure you've read the ls manpage's section on CLICOLOR and dealt with the termcap issue. If you don't like the colors, read the LSCOLORS section of the manpage. You can also install the GNU fileutils port/package (/usr/ports/sysutils/fileutils), and gls --color=auto should colorize things in that vibrant Stallman style that linux people are used to. Then you can alias ls to gls --color=auto in your .bashrc, etc. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

If anyone was offened that was not what I was attempting to do. Nor was I trying to compare ms to freebsd in anyway or manner. I believe each has their strong points and weaknesses.

You need to enable it in the PC bios and for some NICs also in the NIC's BIOS as well (e.g. RTL 8139) using a NIC specific tool But most drivers in Linux disable WOL per default (on the NIC).

Only a few drivers in Linux 2.4.x (vanilla) provide a kernel option like enable_wol=1, usually you need a kernel patch (if you can find one). Are there similar problems on FreeBSD?

On just one of my servers, apache stopped portupgrading (within the past several weeks); it hadn't really grabbed my attention until a power failure in Newark on Wednesday made my operating version of apache+mod-ssl unrunnable (or so I thought) and I actually had to pkg_delete apache from the machine and then do a pkg_add -r apache+mod_ssl to get a working version back. The upshot of the apache blasting power failure was that it wasn't apache at all that was the actual culprit. When the machine rebooted and came back online, for some odd reason, portsentry grabbed port 80 and wouldn't let go. While apachectl startssl didn't return a command line error, the /var/log/ httpd-error logfile recorded that the port was already in use. ps -ax |grep http only returned grep http. I found the problem with netstat or sockstat (I forget now, it was a Real late night, that night), killed portsentry, restarted apache, and restarted portsentry. All has been well since. Now, though, I know what to do to properly portupgrade apache next time.

NAT and gateway
Hello, I'm running 4.8-STABLE. I've got a question about NAT and gateway. Today, I'm running a typical NAT configuration like this... if0 = public_ip if1 = private_lan Everything is working fine, internal clients use if1 and their gateway and their addresses are translated and sent out on if0. My question is: can I alias if1 with a public IP and point other clients (also with public IP) if1 as their gateway? In this case, I would want if1 to route to if0 and have their public IPs remain intact. I'm asking this as a questions because I've just tried it and packets are not routing from if1 to if0.

Tapes wear and they do have a life span which varies from tape to tape. If you are backing up something it is obviously important so take no chances in loosing it. On my windows system I have the o/s backup set to verify to make sure the data is ok. When it crashed and had to be restored from tape I found that 2 of the tapes that were verified couldnt be read. The tapes were about a year old. The amount of money the company lost from having an old tape could have paid for a new server, several tape drives and media. The lesson I learnt was tapes are cheap, turn over frequently. Remember with dds technology they are a helical scan head. Tapes backed up on one dds drive are not necessarily readable by any other dds drive as I found out the hard way. Look at DLT as an alternative.
