Re : Re: building gnome2 on freebsd6-stable

2005-11-20 Thread Didier Wiroth
thanks for replying.

No, I actually did not have gnome installed, as I'm running fluxbox but may be 
I had some sub-gnome ports installed that I didn't notice and that are 
responsible for the build failure. 

May be I should uninstall all *gnome* ports and restart.

Best regards,
Didier

Objet: Re: building gnome2 on freebsd6-stable

 Did you have gnome in before and you started to
 try to build it?
 
 Go to http://www.freebsd.org/gnome. There is an
 upgrade script there. I used it partially, it got
 me about half way. Turned out that I had an ethernet
 speed/duplex issue much of the time, and was having
 trouble downloading.
 
 After a day of manually downloading (ftp worked, fetch,
 which is used by the script had trouble) and restarting the
 script, I gave up on it and used portmanager. That worked
 better, but still had a couple of issues.
 
 About this time, I got the duplex issue fixed on the switch,
 and then went back to /usr/ports/x11/gnome2 and from there
 everything worked.
 
 The problem is that you'll get out of order with dependancies
 if you just start in /usr/ports/x11/gnome2.
 
 
 I'm having one problem with gnome 2.12. The screensaver won't
 start up. It complains about  not being able to contact the
 messagebus. Any help here?

applying the vesa patch to stable for high console resolution

2005-06-13 Thread Didier Wiroth
Hi,

USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!

this for the freebsd5 branch only

Here is how to apply the patch to get the long awaited high console text 
modes under freebsd!
I actually use it on my nc6000 hp laptop with the following mode:
1400x1050x16
damm .. really nice ;-))

This patch is actually for freebsd current but it works (for me) with 5-stable 
and may be release or earlier versions (5.X) too.

ONCE AGAIN BE WARNED!! USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!

Let's go:
1) Get the patch here:
http://people.freebsd.org/~delphij/vesa/patchset-highres.20050522

2) Remove the lines which are not required for us and rename the patch we will 
use to syscons.patch:
split -p Index: usr.sbin patchset-highres.20050522  mv xaa syscons.patch

3) backup and patch your local (stable) sources: (/usr/src/sys/dev/syscons - 
will be patched)
cp -Rp /usr/src/sys/dev/syscons /usr/src/sys/dev/BAK.syscons
cd /usr/src
patch  path_to_patch/syscons.patch

4) recompile and install your kernel with sc_pixel_mode and vesa support see 
handbook for details!
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html

5) backup your vidcontrol sources
cp -Rp /usr/src/usr.sbin/vidcontrol /usr/src/usr.sbin/BAK.vidcontrol

6) update your vidcontrol sources with the current/HEAD vidcontrol sources
cd /usr/src
cvs [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/ncvs co -rHEAD usr.sbin/vidcontrol

7) recompile vidcontrol and install
cd /usr/src/usr.sbin/vidcontrol  make clean  make all  make install

8) reboot

9) after having rebooted with your new kernel (with sc_pixel_mode and vesa) 
issue a vidcontrol -i mode
You will get lots of ouput like this:
322 (0x142) 0x000f G 1400x1050x16 1  8x16  0xa 64k 64k 0x9800 65472k
Test the mode in a shell by issuying:
vidcontrol MODE_322

If it works (I hope for you ;-)) but your corresponding mode in rc.conf like 
this:
allscreens_flags=MODE_322

VoilĂ  :-))
Long live freebsd

matrox parhelia and hauppauge pvr350 questions

2005-04-19 Thread Didier Wiroth
Hi,

I would like to migrate my main workstation from windowsxp to freebsd 
5.4-stable (I run a few free- and openbsd machines on a few servers and a 
laptop)

I use a matrox parhelia 128mb (dual DVI) agp card which is connected to 2 LCD 
screens. 
I also run a Hauppauge PVR350 TV card to watch TV on my PC.

I've a few questions:
1) Does someone run a matrox parhelia in Xorg 6.8.2 with freebsd5.x, what's 
your comment on it?
2) Is multi-screen (Xinerama) working with this card?
3) Is someone using hauppauge pvr350 TV card to watch tv in freebsd?
4) Is tv watching with the pvr somewhat user-friendly?

Many many thanks for taking the time to respond
Didier

tcpwrappers problem

2005-04-18 Thread Didier Wiroth
Hi,
(using freebsd5.4-stable)

I'm trying to display a ftpd banner with hosts.allow, but it doesn't work.

I'm using ftpd (/usr/libexec/ftpd) started through inetd.
Ined is started with standard flags: 
/usr/sbin/inetd -wW -C 60

In hosts.allow I have:
ALL : ALL : allow
ALL : ALL : banners /usr/local/etc/banners/
ALL : PARANOID : RFC931 20 : deny

In /usr.../banners/ I've a banner called: ftpd and inetd and ftp etc.. copied 
the banner to different names to be sure ... ;-) 

The directory is world r-x and the banners are world readable. 

When changing for example: ALL:ALL:allow to ALL:ALL:deny, ftpd connections are 
blocked, so I assume the wrappers work.

Why isn't my banner displayed?
thanks
didier

Damm ... ;-)) yes that's it
thanks a lot
didier

At first glance, I would say because you have an ALL : ALL : allow
before you have your ALL : ALL : banners /usr/local/etc/banners/
