xkbcomp warning in current with pl layout
hello misc@ since recent changes in X that were made in current, I get a warning from xkbcomp when doing startx (I use a 'Option XkbLayout pl' in my xorg.conf): The XKEYBOARD keymap compiler (xkbcomp) reports: Warning: Type ONE_LEVEL has 1 levels, but RALT has 2 symbols Ignoring extra symbols Errors from xkbcomp are not fatal to the X server I read in 'Following -current' than there ware changes in XKB, but haven't found any info about polish keymap..

Re: Ethernet via USB cable
From: Lars Weste [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi list, I am trying to setup a network between two OpenBSD 3.8 hosts via a USB interface. I wanted to use the Interface as a pfsync device. I thought it have read somewhere it is possible but cannot remember where, so when I issue a: apropos usb | grep -i ether I feel I will need a USB Ethernet interface, just coupling two hosts via a USB cable doesn't work. The most promising manual page revealed that way is the cdce(4), but there is a Prolific and Zaurus mentioned and I belive this is only working with these devices. So do I need special USB Ethernet hardware to configure a network between two OpenBSD hosts connected together via USB, if not, which manpage did I missed? If you're asking if you can plug a dumb usb cable between two computers, the answer is no. You can only have one host on the bus at one time. To get ethernet via usb between the hosts you will need two usb to ethernet nics and a crossover cable, or a cdce device such as the one made by prolific. cdce is plugged straight into the usb ports of both machines, but they both see it as a network device (ie, it appears as a device to both hosts). If you find one let me know, I've been interested in getting one for a while. dlg

Spanish speakers, [es] translation needs you
Hi, The [es] translation is way out of date and it has been the case for a long time (164 files out of which 153 are outdated). Since Gerardo Santana Gsmez Garrido stopped maintaining it, no one serious stepped in to take over (some talkers showed up but we didn't see a single diff from them). If you want to help the OpenBSD project by maintaining [es] (or at least the most important files), please read http://www.openbsd.org/ translation-explained.html then contact me as soon as possible. Otherwise, I will remove [es] files from the tree. Be warned though, translation is not exactly a highly interesting job. It can be boring and time-consuming but it is necessary in my humble opinion.

Re: Spanish speakers, [es] translation needs you
Hi, i've been talking about that topic with some people in #BSDes (irc.freenode.net) for a long time, now it seems the time to take action. I'll set up an anonymous cvs server and begin to work on it by myself this week. I hope i'll get some help from the folks on #BSDes (of course everyone else is invited, just contact me via email or joining the channel in freenode). It is posible to have some visible results in two-three weeks (at least the main pages of openbsd.org). Here you have my proposal, perhaps anyone else have a better one (which i'll be glad to join), but if no other appears, give me a chance (wait a bit to remove [es] from the tree).

ssh2 clients
Hello, well, this is no ssh mailing list, but as OpenSSH is integrated into OpenBSD and as *.openbsd.org webpages show ssh clients for Windows I would like to know: I have seen these ssh2 clients (for Windows) UTF-8 TeraTerm Pro and/or ttssh2. They have ssh2 support included and as far as I have seen sources are available. I have installed UTF-8 TT Pro and do not see problems. Its website at sourceforge is: http://sourceforge.jp/projects/ttssh2/ What is the reason that the ssh2-clients (for Windows) UTF-8 TeraTerm Pro and/or ttssh2 are not mentioned on *.openbsd.org webpages?

console mouse hard to control
This must have come up a few times but searching this group at search.gmane.org with strings like `console mouse speed' `wsmoused' `mouse speed' turned up lots of stuff, including one direct hit but it had no reply. There is nothing mentioned in section of faq about keyboard and mouse either. Is it possible on i386 architecture to control the console mouse speed or acceleration?
80x50 console res but .. clean font
Using the example from FAQ about how to get 80x50 console resolution I find the font I get is pretty blotchy compared to the default. In default console res, the font is crisp and clear but using the example: wsfontload -h 8 -e ibm /usr/share/misc/pcvtfonts/vt220l.808 It seems blotchy and hard to read. Also not really small enough either. Maybe just the larger size makes it appear cleaner. So, are there better ways to do this? And can I get 75 lines or some other higher number in console mode?
The HP nc7170 dual port
Hi, I've been desperately looking for syskonnect 9822 dual port cards but it seems its sold-out everywhere and syskonnect just told me on the phone that they won't produce anymore. I'm left with Intel based dual port cards and since I have access to cheap nc7170 (Intel 82546EB chipset) I was wondering if anybody knew if this was supposed to work (i.e: is it just a rebranding of the intel equivalent), if anybody has one on a box somewhere i'd be interested to know if it is detected and works. Thanks, Pierre-Yves

WebDAV locking trouble (yes, DavLockDB is chroot relative)
From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: httpd / mod_dav locking troubles (DavLockDB is chrooted relative) Date: February 28, 2006 7:21:59 AM PST To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] I'm running OpenBSD 3.8 stable with mod_dav 1.0.3p0 installed from ports (sparc64 architecture). My goal is to get mod_dav working over https. While https is working ok, and my DAV client (Mac OS X 10.4.5) can connect and authenticate, any time the client attempts to create a file it will hang. Examining the error_log shows the following message repeated many thousands of time (before I killed httpd and waited for the Mac to timeout): [Sun Feb 26 22:42:47 2006] [error] [client 10.0.254.2] Could not save lock information. [500, #405] [Sun Feb 26 22:42:47 2006] [error] [client 10.0.254.2] (22)Invalid argument: No error. [500, #0] I have not found anyone posting a solution to this issue. The best I could find was one other person having the same issue, but didn't get a response. The URL for the other post is: http://mailman.lyra.org/pipermail/dav-dev/2005-November/006209.html We're both running OpenBSD on sparc64 (though he was running 3.7). I've tried running apache both chrooted (httpd_flags=-DSSL) and unchrooted (http_flags=-u -DSSL). The change had no effect on this issue. SSL and authentication have not been a problem. Here's the DAV relevant portion of my httpd.conf: Alias /dav/ /var/www/dav/files/ DavLockDB /dav/lockdb Directory /var/www/dav/files/ Dav on AuthType Digest AuthName DAV AuthDigestDomain / AuthDigestFile /var/www/dav/dav_users AuthGroupFile /var/www/dav/dav_groups Options none AllowOverride none LimitExcept GET HEAD OPTIONS require valid-user /LimitExcept Order allow,deny Allow from All /Directory The owner and permissions on the /var/www/dav/ directory look fine: drwxrwxr-x 3 www www 512 Feb 27 21:52 dav/ The lock database is created in /var/www/dav, but I noticed the files have a zero size: -rw-r- 1 www www0 Feb 27 21:52 lockdb.dir -rw-r- 1 www www0 Feb 27 21:52 lockdb.pag I haven't done anything special with my var partition (on a side note, I spaced it install time but /var/www/ will wind up on its own partition): /dev/wd0g on /var type ffs (local, nodev, nosuid) /var/log/messages doesn't have anything post relevant, just boot stuff and a couple syslog restarts. I re-worked my httpd.conf to only run a single httpd instance (StartServers, MinSpare, and MaxSpare all set to 1), restarted httpd, and ktraced the httpd child process. Here's the portion of the output that deals with the lock db: 29913 httpdCALL open(0x42d887f0,0x202,0x1b0) 29913 httpdNAMI /dav/lockdb.pag 29913 httpdRET open 7 29913 httpdCALL flock(0x7,0x2) 29913 httpdRET flock 0 29913 httpdCALL open(0x42d887e0,0x202,0x1b0) 29913 httpdNAMI /dav/lockdb.dir 29913 httpdRET open 8 29913 httpdCALL fstat(0x8,0xfffbe0a0) 29913 httpdRET fstat 0 29913 httpdCALL gettimeofday(0xfffbe960,0) 29913 httpdRET gettimeofday 0 29913 httpdCALL stat(0x4f2df090,0xfffbe660) 29913 httpdNAMI /dav/files/._index copy.html 29913 httpdRET stat 0 29913 httpdCALL close(0x8) 29913 httpdRET close 0 29913 httpdCALL flock(0x7,0x8) 29913 httpdRET flock 0 29913 httpdCALL close(0x7) 29913 httpdRET close 0 The lockdb.pag file is opened successfully (file descriptor 7) and flock reports the exclusive lock was obtained alright (the open and flock man pages helped here). However, httpd still seems to be having some sort of issue related to locking. I haven't touched systrace since I did a fresh install of 3.8 (all I see in /etc/systrace are usr_sbin_lpd and usr_sbin_named). I did some digging in the mod_dav source and found that the Could not save lock information is only issued in one place, and that is if a call to sdbm_store (via a function pointer) is failing with EINVAL (errno value 22 in the above error_log snippet). It's returned from sdbm_store because either the database is NULL, or the key data pointer is NULL or has a zero size. Searching for various combinations of sdbm, DAV, sparc, and OpenBSD didn't find anything that looked relevant. If someone has already seen / patched / worked around this, I'd rather not waste time creating a debug build of httpd / mod_dav (my only sparc box is on the slow side). Any help or insights appreciated. Nick

error mounting cd0c on -current

I downloaded xmms (which looks like the old winamp), put the cd in and issued the following command: #mkdir /cdrom #mount -t cd9660 -r /dev/cd0c /cdrom This is the error that pops up in the console: -- cd0(atapiscsi0:0:0): Check Condition (error 0x70) on opcode 0x28 SENSE KEY: Illegal Request Incorrect Length Indicator Set INFO: 0x10 (VALID flag on) ASC/ASCQ: Illegal Mode For This Track -- So I added the following to /etc/fstab: /dev/cd0c /cdrom cd9660 ro,noauto 0 0 and I issued the following command: #mount /cdrom but I still get the same error.

I did google the error messages, as well as looked at the FAQ, but was unable to understand why it didn't work. The mount man page has what I first put in to get this error. This is why I am sending out for a little assistance. Any help is appreciated. Dmesg is below...

Try cu -l cua00 -s 19200. If you see nothing at all, make sure you've got the correct cables and/or adapters - you want a null modem adapter or cable, not a gender changer. If you see garbled characters (possibly corrupting your terminal display afterwards) the speed's probably wrong. You'll probably save time and trouble to set your serial devices to 9600baud. It's fast enough for consoles, serial ports are mostly fast enough to keep up with it without handshaking (my old laptop excepted), and is the closest thing to a standard speed. Why Soekris chose 19200 I'll never know. # stty -f /dev/tty00 rows 24 OpenBSD follows the SunOS convention: - tty is for terminals - cua is the callout device for outgoing connections The difference is explained in tty(4) [not tty(1)]. As you can see, the number of rows did not changed. Don't worry about the number of rows - I imagine you'll be using ssh for most work, won't you? Another questions: do i need to have the same speed on both sides? Yes (unless you have the misfortune to deal with an unbuffered v23 modem which is fairly unlikely this side of the 1990's). If you haven't used much serial before there may be a bit of learning involved but it's fairly straightforward..

The utility of such? In fact it is useless from a funcionality perspective. But it was very charmy. I would love to show every body around here what my box runs.

Perhaps in the future a developer might have interest in porting it. I feel a bit odd for asking this, because I used to live on the console, but I must ask: why? Why do any of you care about better fonts or resolutions or assorted prettiness on the console? Just go into X. OpenBSD has the full range of window managers in ports, from ratpoison and amiga-lookalikes to treewm to Enlightenment to GNOME/KDE. Can't you at least use ratpoison? A computer incapable of even that should probably not be taking up a monitor or keyboard.

If you like being at console and like screen but want more control over resolution, fonts, etc., then ratpoison will be nice for you. I don't need much fancy X stuff, but I really like using ratpoison for my 1920x1200 widescreen (better resolution and crisper fonts than anything you'd get at console.) Ahh thanks for the clear up. And yes I do like console and screen so this sounds just about right for me.
Re: Nothing in FAQ about X ?
* Harry Putnam [EMAIL PROTECTED] [060228 20:34]: I haven't seen any section of FAQ devoted to setting up X. Is it supposed to just work after installing the base tgz files? Or maybe I'm just blindly overlooking the section? The part about building X doesn't have anything to say about setting it up. Is it covered somewhere else? I'm guessing its just supposed to work. I didn't install the Xpackages at first bu have now gone back and go them from latest snapshots. xbase39.tgz xetc39.tgz xfont39.tgz xserv39.tgz xshare39.tgz Untarred them in root as directed. Probably some config is required but I see no help about that. Running `startx' gets a number of library errors. xauth: can't load library 'libXau.so.9.0' /usr/X11R6/bin/xauth: can't load library 'libXext.so.9.0' /usr/X11R6/bin/xauth: can't load library 'libXmuu.so.4.0' /usr/X11R6/bin/xinit: can't load library 'libX11.so.9.0' /usr/X11R6/bin/xauth: can't load library 'libXext.so.9.0' man ldconfig I suspect your library cache is not up to date. Try using ldconfig -r and seeing if they are listed. If not, you likely have to get them in there. Jim

But they have not reached that goal yet, at least on some very popular platforms. Or maybe I'm just blindly overlooking the section? The part about building X doesn't have anything to say about setting it up. Is it covered somewhere else? see /usr/X11R6/README on your installed system for some tips on getting X up and running. Yes, the FAQ is sadly deficient on setting up and using X at the moment. Hopefully, that will be changing in the future. Nick.

From a command line just issue cdio play You'll need to add yourself to the operator group. This also assumes that you have a hardware audio cable attached from the cdrom drive to your soundcard Best Dorothy

That's the idea and it works fairly well for me. The only manual X configuration I've had to do is make it use my 3button mouse, other than that it usually just works. At least that's my experience. Running `startx' gets a number of library errors. xauth: can't load library 'libXau.so.9.0' /usr/X11R6/bin/xauth: can't load library 'libXext.so.9.0' /usr/X11R6/bin/xauth: can't load library 'libXmuu.so.4.0' /usr/X11R6/bin/xinit: can't load library 'libX11.so.9.0' /usr/X11R6/bin/xauth: can't load library 'libXext.so.9.0' This is not related to configuring X. Something's screwy with your X installation but I wouldnt know exactly what. I'd try to upgrade to a later snapshot. --- Lars Hansson
Squid not starting on boot with ADSL
Hi Since moving from Cable to DSL, squid no longer starts on boot. I have the following entry in /etc/rc.local #start squid if [ -f /usr/local/squid/sbin/squid ]; then echo -n ' Squid' /usr/local/sbin/squid I've also tried just having /usr/local/sbin/squid in there For DSL I'm using a modem, and the OpenBSD box is creating a virtual tun0 interface and is making the PPPOE connection, I'm assuming it has something to do with this? I have the squid startup line AFTER the PPPOE connection line in rc.local? Squid starts fine once the machine has completely booted. I've checked /var/log/messages and /var/log/daemon but nothing of use in there as far as I can tell Any guidance is appreciated! Regards Luke

If so, have a look at starting it with the -D switch. g
Re: Nothing in FAQ about X ?
Hi Harry, I haven't seen any section of FAQ devoted to setting up X. Whatever Nick may say about deficiencies... In fact, http://www.openbsd.org/faq/faq8.html#X at least references /usr/X11R6/README. Is it supposed to just work after installing the base tgz files? Sort of. But you know, producing a working X configuration file tends to be a hassle, no matter what OS you use. It has become easier during the last few years, but still, it's not fun. Or maybe I'm just blindly overlooking the section? Well, you appear to be blindly overlooking lots of things. Try looking a bit harder by yourself before asking zillions of simple questions here, or people will soon start flaming you for lazyness. ;-) [...] xbase39.tgz xetc39.tgz xfont39.tgz xserv39.tgz xshare39.tgz Untarred them in root as directed. Probably some config is required but I see no help about that. Running `startx' gets a number of library errors. xauth: can't load library 'libXau.so.9.0' /usr/X11R6/bin/xauth: can't load library 'libXext.so.9.0' [...] Oh well. Here we go again. Try $ ldconfig -r | head -n2 Nothing about /usr/X11R6/lib round there, right? So read $ man ldconfig next, then scan $ less /etc/rc looking out for ldconfig. There's something about configuring /usr/X11R6/lib into ld.so.hints at bootup. Of course, when you install X after bootup, and do not reboot, this code never gets executed. When you know what you are doing, you hardly ever need to reboot OpenBSD unless you want to use a different kernel, but when you reconfigure stuff without rebooting, you need to run the required configuration commands manually, of course. Once you understand what i said so far, try (as root) # ldconfig -m /usr/X11R6/lib Use $ ldconfig -r | head -n2 once more to see what you just changed by doing so. After that, ld.so ought to be able to find your X libraries. That's all rather basic stuff, though. Yours, Ingo -- Ingo Schwarze [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.usta.de/

I'm not understanding what you mean about the mouse part. It lacks mouse support? You don't control ratpoison with a mouse. That's the whole point of it (see http://www.nongnu.org/ratpoison/). But of course you can run X11 programs under ratpoison that are controlled with the mouse. I'm even running things like konqueror and eclipse under ratpoison if I need to. Ciao, Kili
