Re: mount windows xp
If you are using a GENERIC kernel, then ntfs is built in the kernel. Otherwise you may try kldload ntfs before compiling the kernel afresh. I have used mount_ntfs and it works perfectly. If I am not mistaken mount_ntfs is even more intelligent - if ntfs is not loaded it dynamically loads it with kldload and mounts the partition. Anyway what is the file system on your Windows XP partition?

PCPMIA cards
Hi and Thanks for your time, I recently got a pccard from my local telco (Telstra Australia) which, runs under XP. This all runs on a Asus A3000 lappy. While FreeBSD finds most of the hardware and I think the pccard, how I go from there I don't know. The card is a 3G from Maxon au and the dmesg reports it as a CMOTECH CDMA. The line reads: ugen2: CMOTECH CO, LTD. CMOTECH CDMA Technologies, rev 2.00/0.00 addr 2 Looking at the cmotech site it seems similar to CCC 550. Maxon call it a MM 5500c. I would realy like to get this running so it can be used under FreeBSD then I can blow the inferior OS in the other partition.

Video capture/editing?
Some time ago I purchased a Pinnacle video capture/editing package to be used on a windows computer. Honestly, this is the last thing I keep a windows computer around for. The capture setup is a PCI card with a breakout unit on it, the editing software, obviously Studio. A number of things have driven me to the point where I simply cannot stand the windows/Pinnacle setup any more, mostly a lack of stability. Looking through the ports collection I found avidemux2 and kino. What I need to know is this - will one of these two programs replace the basic editing functionality of pinnacle for me, and can I use the same capture hardware? I suspect the capture hardware will be an issue, but I'm certainly open to suggestions.

Pecuniary reward is not the only reason to learn how to make reasonable, meaningful responses that are to the point of the question and to be able to understand the difference. Being able to post responses that are respected in the community is another reward and may occasionally require learning from peoples comments on the quality of the responses. jerry This SERVER is purpose built and runs stable 24/7 as a low volume outbound mail server so the performance of the NIC is not my primary concern. You have no need to justify what your doing to him or to me or to anybody. Why bother doing it. Please keep your useless comments to yourself as they do nothing but waste disk space, CPU time and the valuable time of people who attempt to help others on this list. How is informing someone that they're wasting their money on a MB a waste of time? I'm sure you've wasted thousands of your employers dollars with your ignorant recommendations, Jerry. I can get hours of entertainment just googling you. Ok, here's a test to illustrate my point. I have a server with a big file (352MB). 2 client machines running the same version of Freebsd: 1) AMD 1.8Ghz Opteron - onboard bge controller: Ftp results: 4MB/s 2) Intel 2.0Ghz Celeron 845 Chipset, onboard fxp controller: ftp results: 11MB/s I think we'll all agree that a 1.8Ghz opteron is substantially faster (and more expensive) then a 2.0Ghz Celeron? (or will Jerry ask me to prove this also)? Its not rocket science. What good is the extra horsepower of the cpu doing you if you're using a crap controller? Its mindless stupidity; which is about what you'd expect from a sys admin, and not an engineer.

Re: Does FreeBSD 4.11-STABLE support the 8237R?
I would guess the gigabit switch vs my cheapo 100Mb/s switch would make that sort of difference. You have to do the test with the same hardware, same server, same switches otherwise you have no relative comparision that's valid. The server could make a huge difference also. Ftp servers are kind of kludgy in the way that they decide on how to dispatch packets. I'd guess that if you put an intel card into the box you'd get similar relative differences in throughput. Its not a good test anyway, but you have to simplify things for jerry and the gang. A better way to test is to generate a consistent load and look at CPU usage. The efficiency of the server, windowing, etc will all affect an FTP transfer too much to use it as a complete test. The seemingly tiny different between gigabit and 100Mb/s speeds could be the difference between the window staying open or the process going to sleep. . --- Chad Leigh -- Shire.Net LLC [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: On Jun 4, 2006, at 8:42 AM, Danial Thom wrote: How is informing someone that they're wasting their money on a MB a waste of time?

FreeBSD and newer HDD problems ?
Hello, I've recently bought new big HDD (WDC RE, 320GB) and it looks like FreeBSD has some troubles with it when trying to transfer files over network. If I try to perform some synthetic test like 'dd if=/dev/zero of=/wdc320/testfile' then I get some decent speeds about 40MB/s. When I try to copy some big files from my older disk (IBM 40GB) I still have write about 25-27MB/s. Problem comes when I try to copy something to disk over network (tried samba, ftp) disk write speed is very low - about 5-6MB/s at max. When testing this issue I've start 'systat -vmstat 1' and noticed that my new disk is very busy (60-100%) and speed (MB/s) jumps up and down. If I write files with 'dd' or transfer them from disk 2 disk then write speed and disk load is almost constant (about 60%).

Everytime I tried to delete them they would appear in the trashcan, I would flush them, and sooner or later the directory and all its files would be right back where they started. I finally noticed that they reappeared everytime I restarted ktorrent. So I went poking under the hood and found a reference to them in deep down in ~/.kde/share/apps/ktorrent/cache folder. Apparently ktorrent was recreating empty files in anticipation of downloading a torrent that was no longer in the queue. Perhaps something similar is going on with your machine?

Re: Video capture/editing?
On Sun, Jun 04, 2006, at 06:51:05 -0500, Laurence Sanford wrote: Some time ago I purchased a Pinnacle video capture/editing package to be used on a windows computer. Honestly, this is the last thing I keep a windows computer around for. The capture setup is a PCI card with a breakout unit on it, the editing software, obviously Studio. A number of things have driven me to the point where I simply cannot stand the windows/Pinnacle setup any more, mostly a lack of stability. I know what you mean here. After building new machines with fast hardware, reinstalling Windows, and not even having that many programs installed or running...it would freeze up, be slow after a week, have the explorer.exe constantly crashing, etc. I couldn't reboot every week, so I finally switched to FreeBSD on the desktop and everything is going great. Looking through the ports collection I found avidemux2 and kino. What I need to know is this - will one of these two programs replace the basic editing functionality of pinnacle for me, and can I use the same capture hardware? I suspect the capture hardware will be an issue, but I'm certainly open to suggestions. Thanks in advance for any input. I use Avidemux2 on a daily basis for converting video files. It's awesome for converting and setting simple in/out points in a clip, but it doesn't have the functionality of a timeline or effects, etc. You can load in another clip and append it to the current one and then export it to whatever format though. I have not been able to try Kino yet. For some reason, whenever I start it, I get: (kino:8760): Gdk-CRITICAL **: gdk_window_move: assertion `GDK_IS_WINDOW (window)' failed ...and the program never starts. I've contacted them about it, but the developers were not sure. It could be that I'm running the amd64 version of FreeBSD, and it may work fine in i386. There are a couple other programs you might want to look into -- multimedia/jahshaka and multimedia/pitivi. I've used Jahshaka 1.9a9 from ports and it's not the easiest to use nor the most stable, although the functionality looks great. They have an updated 2.0 RC3 on their site for which the screenshots look amazing, however it's still an RC so it's not been updated in ports yet (and it seems to be a hard one to compile yourself). I have not tried Pitivi. On the hardware, I'm not sure if it would work. I do most of my capturing on the one non-FreeBSD machine I have left -- a Mac with Final Cut Pro. However, I have been able to capture directly from my Canon GL-2 via Firewire on my FreeBSD machine using fwcontrol(8). From there, I take the .dv file, run it through ffmpeg to output it to a format that Avidemux2 can load, and then use Avidemux2 to export that further or do basic cuts. I suggest trying them all and seeing what works best for you. :) Hope that helps. -Mark P.S.

Re: Ask a Question
Hi Kevin, After going through all my options with the areca 1120, the solution was easy and at the same time hard for someone new to FreeBSD. The card works 100% with freeBSD 6.1, the only thing I needed to do was upgrade to the latest firmware from the website. Specifically the one that you guys are beta testing dated 5/26/2006 2:15:00 PM you might want to tell all your comstomers using this card with FreeBSD to upgrade to the latest firmware if they are having issues. Thank you again for e-mailing back and forward, again this is not a FreeBSD bug, it appears to be a firmware bug that is fixed in your latest Beta firmware.

TFC Welcome to the wonderful world of sharing a partition between 2 OSes. Basically, the only filesystem you can use for sharing data read/ write between Windows and Unix is FAT32. It's just that Windows doesn't really have any promising read/write capable drivers (there's an ext2/3 driver, but that still is kind of iffy), and Unix doesn't have true NTFS write support (Linux is the closest to having true NTFS write support, IIRC). So, that leaves you with FAT32, which can only be created in 32GB partitions, because of the file data size limitations (32 bit ints I believe?). Good luck, and if you need to resize some Windows partitions look into partition magic. -Garrett ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

If you have /usr/ports/packages, they'll be stored in one location that you can copy elsewhere, cd or dvd for instance. You could also use pkg_create. man pkg_create Cheers, Mikhail. Yes, you could, if it's already installed on the computer. If I took the output from pkg_info and compared it to what packages were in /usr/ports/packages/All, I could use pkg_create to build the missing packages I wanted to save to do a fast reinstall. But, if the port hasn't been built and installed yet, pkg_create will complain about it and conk out.

Re: mount windows xp
I often do this and there are two practical solutions. One is as Garrett mentioned to simply have a small FAT32 partition that suits your needs (remember max file size is 4GB), call it buffer, and mount if from both OS. A better solution may be to use samba. This is much better, but you need an extra server running either pure Windows or some alternative OS with samba server. Then you simply access this server from both OS and it should not be a problem hopefully. Sometimes I am surprised by the wonders an extra smbfs record in fstab can do. It is very very practical, believe me. It has saved me out of sticky situations a number of times. Just remember to put tight security settings on the file server.

Any way to find out who (i.e. what process) owns these? Yes. Read the man page. Anything here that would prevent sshit from allocating more? Sure. That's the point to this. You trimmed out all your config information, but how many shared memory segments are you allowing? How many semaphores? If those are near 192 and 10, you may be hitting the limit on how _many_ are allowed, not how much memory they can use.

Re: difference between deinstall and pkg_delete?
On Friday 02 June 2006 08:53, Mikhail Goriachev wrote: Jon Falconer wrote: Greetings, I see in the man page for ports the following: reinstallUse this to restore a port after using pkg_delete(1) when you should have used deinstall. So I'm wondering what is the difference between pkg_delete and using make deinstall from within the ports directory? What does make deinstall do that pkg_delete does not do? What does pkg_delete do that make deinstall does not do? Hi, This will point you in the right direction: http://www.bsdforums.org/forums/archive/index.php/t-29467.html Actually I think that points in wrong direction. There is a lot of misinformation about this that is repeated ad-nauseum. Most ports use the standard deinstall target which calls pkg_delete; there is only one port in the whole tree that defines it own deinstall target, and that one installs its own versions of the pkg_* utilities. The port system uses a series of cookie files to keep track of what has been done. For example if you type make make the port will only build once, because the first make sets the build cookie. There is also an Install cookie which leads to a problem when you go through the sequence make install pkg_delete make install because pkg_delete doesn't know about the port cookies. The deinstall and reinstall targets both delete the cookie and so using one or the other avoids the problem. In practice this is virtually a non-issue since most people, and all build tools, will do a make clean at some point in the sequence. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
