Re: Broadcom NetXtreme BCM5751M Gigabit Ethernet PCI Express and FreeBSD 4.10 [SOLVED]
On 10/14/05 01:20 Dinesh Nair said the following: has anyone got the above gigabit ethernet working with freebsd 4.10 ? upgrading to 4.11-RELEASE solved the problem. there were more special code handling functions to be added, other than just adding in the PCI IDs into if_bge.c and if_bgereg.h. -- Regards, /\_/\ All dogs go to heaven.

Boot manager problem
Hello, I have a Compaq ProLiant 400, that i'm using as a fileserver. (FreeBSD balder.home.swe 5.4-RELEASE FreeBSD 5.4-RELEASE #0: Sun May 8 10:21:06 UTC 2005 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC i386) It has a scsi-disk (da0) and two ide-disks, ad0 (at ata0-master) and ad2 (at ata1-master). da0 contains the system, ad0 and ad2 is just for storage. The problem is that the bios doesn't allow me to boot directly to da0. I solve this by having a MBR on ad0, the problem is that it tries to find a loader on the ad0 which is wrong, and i get a error message that says Invalid partition. Then I get a boot-prompt and if i write 1:da(0,a)/boot/loader it boots correctly. Upon booting i get: F1 FreeBSD F5 Drive 1 Default: F1 Invalid partition FreeBSD/i386 boot Default: 0:ad(0,a)/boot/loader boot: Invalid partition No /boot/loader FreeBSD/i368 boot Default: 0:ad(0,a)/boot/loader boot: 1:da(0,a)/boot/loader(i write this) After this it boots correct. How do i get the bootloader to boot 1:da(0,a)/boot/kernel directly? With regards Carl Gustavsson dmesg: Copyright (c) 1992-2005 The FreeBSD Project.

testers wanted for 5.4-STABLE sysctl kern.proc patch
The patch below is the 5.4-STABLE version of a patch that was recently
committed to HEAD and 6.0-BETA5 to fix locking problems in the kern.proc
sysctl handler that could cause panics or deadlocks. It has already
been tested by myself and one other person in 5.4-STABLE, but I think it
deserves wider testing before I commit it. Testing on SMP systems,
while running threaded applications, and on systems that have
experienced panics in the existing code is of the most interest. Also
be on the lookout for any regressions, such as incorrect data being
returned.

I can boot on the scsi-disc but only if i don't have any IDE-discs in it. If I put in IDE-discs it tries to boot to the first IDE-disc. The BIOS is very limited in the ProLiant 400. FreeBSD is already installed on the machine and I don't need to reinstall it. The problem is only that it won't boot to the scsi disc if I dont write 1:da(0,a)/boot/loader at the boot prompt every time i want to boot it. So I want the boot manager to boot to 1:da(0,a)/boot/loader as default. / Carl Gustavsson ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sorry for the late reply, but a cute lady tied me up for some hours ;-) this, if using english as the language in BIOS, should be located under the advanced menu. if not, then you can set the partitions on the IDE disks as not bootable. This can be done through sysinstall(8) and sysinstall's slice editor. When exiting the slice editor, remember to choose NO BOOTLOADER as the bootloader for the IDE disks. Then use the slice editor on the SCSI disk, and quit without doing any modifications to it, other that setting it bootable if nescessary. THEN choose the appropriate bootloader for the SCSI disk (I would choose the middle one (can't remember the name), since it will not prompt for any action during the boot process, which may be a good behaviour if you are having this computer running as some sort of server). Have fun, and don't drink too much coffee now ;-) Owe Jørgensen ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
6.0 release date and stability
The release schedule for FreeBSD 6.0, on the FreeBSD Web site, doesn't show a projected date for the finished product. How close is it? We are (believe it or not) still running and building production servers with 4.11, and would love to move to 6.0 (at least for uniprocessor systems; we may wait for 6.1 for SMP) if it is sufficiently stable and performs adequately. We're running our own tests on RC1, but don't have a lot of spare servers to try it on. So, it's worth asking: How stable is RC1 turning out to be on uniprocessor platforms? On SMP platforms? How is network and disk performance relative to 4.11? (When we tested 5.x, both network and file system performance were worse than that of 4.11.) With what known problems is 6.0 likely to ship, and of these which are likely to impact uniprocessor systems? Are any showstopper bugs merely being worked around for release? And, again, when is the likely release date? --Brett Glass ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

For what it's worth, on UP, my 386 (stop laughing) is showing twice the inbound and outbound tcp throughput across multiple apps compared to 4.11. Disk throughput is slightly higher, but nothing super impressive. If 6.0 can show gains on a 386, that tells me there is some actual merit to the changes.

cpu frequency on 6.0
Dear all! I'd like to know, prior to install upcoming 6.0, about putting cpu into cooler mo- de. On 5.4 and amd64 2800+ cpu (754, 0.13) with acpi_ppc, it works fine and temperature is just over 30. Could I do the same with device cpufreq and powerd_enable? Also, is it possible to tune celeron M processor (1400, says it has stepping=5) the same way?
