 The entry for 01/02 in src/usr.bin/calendar/calendars/calendar.ushistory

 i agree we should capitalise both British and American. i agree also
 that british is more likely with one t than two. less persuaded about that
 hyphen though:

But in this case the hyphen is correct. In this case, British and
American are coequal modifiers to the word convoy. See:

British American convoy would mean a convoy composed of Americans
with a British ancestry which I don't think is correct. The meaning
should likely be a convoy composed of British and American soldiers or
a British-American convoy

New *BSD User Group in Upstate New York (Capital District)

2014-12-20 Thread Brian Callahan

Hi everyone --

I just want to announce a new *BSD User Group I've (re-)started in the 
Capital District, NY, region, the Capital District *BSD User Group 
(CDBUG). We started meeting about two months ago: we meet the second 
Tuesday of each month at 6:45 PM at INOC (80 State St. in Albany).


Hopefully some of you here are in the area and can make it out; it's a 
low stakes, friendly group comprised of everything from new users to 
kernel hackers and developers.


We have a mailing list: cdbug-t...@lists.nycbug.org

We're also looking for speakers! If you have an idea for a talk, please 
let me know. Especially if you're a developer. If for any reason one of 
you are passing through the area please talk to me. Be very happy to 
have you come and give a talk. We're not quite as big as NYC*BUG (yet?) 
but it'll definitely be worth your while.


Hope to see you all in the Capital District! Help me feel less alone in 
a sea of FreeBSD people :-)


~Brian



Re: Temperature

2014-11-14 Thread Brian Callahan

On 11/14/14 13:27, Etienne wrote:

Hello list,

I seem to have a little hardware related problem. I have been using a
Lenovo x120e for some time, and OpenBSD ran nicely on it until April. As
soon as I upgraded to 5.5, and from quite early after kernel loading,
the console started showing and repeating at regular intervals:

  acpitz0: critical temperature reached 93C, shutting down
  acpithinkpad0: Unknown event 0x6022

(93C is just a typical value, I've seen any between 92 and 98). I
usually have just the time to log in before the system logs me out and
shuts down. This laptop normally runs at around 80°C, and I think the
temperature reading in OpenBSD is correct, because I get similar
warnings
and temperature values when I reboot immediately into another OS.

Booting on 5.6 bsd.rd and upgrading the system went fine, but as soon as
I restarted the system, the same situation happened. Feeling
adventurous,
I tried to disable acpitz* during the boot process, which made the
messages
go away. The system ran just below 100°C (as reported by sysctl) for
some time without any problem, until I didn't want to take the risk for
any longer and shut it down manually. I also have an x100e from the same
brand, quite similar even if older and slower, which does _NOT_ show the
same symptoms. I'm attaching the dmesg and sysctl hw.sensors output of
both
machines running 5.6.

Has anyone been running 5.5 and 5.6 on a x120e? Any clues on what I
should
do to diagnose the problem any better?


I'm running OpenBSD -current on my X120e. Temperature is around 68-72C 
unless I'm doing something very CPU intensive (but then it never gets up 
higher than around 82C).


Not sure what to tell you to diagnose it.


Cheers!

Hello,


As advised in this thread:
http://marc.info/?l=openbsd-armm=139894585630709w=2
I am looking for a netbook that would suit my needs.

I am currently hesitating between buying an Acer aspire
One 725 and a Lemote Yeelong. Yeelong is more open-source,
I like the lack of closed BIOS.
Unfortunately, some (heavy) binaries I would need are not
in mips64el,such as icedtea-web or conkeror, both needed
to browse on-line libraries djvu.



Both of these depend on xulrunner, which doesn't build on mips64el.


I think I should stick with FAQ suggestions of avoiding
compilations and choose an amd64, but to be sure:
How long would Yeelong compile heavy apps from ports
like jdk?



jdk-1.7 took about one second on my yeeloong:
$ cd /usr/ports/devel/jdk/1.7/  make build
==  jdk-1.7.0.55p1v0   is only for i386 amd64, not mips64el (loongson) .

Of course, at the end of that second, I didn't have Java.
The yeeloongs are a single core 800 MHz machine. Building things will 
take much much longer than you're used to if you've only been using 
modern i386/amd64 machines.


I think you need to reevaluate what you're looking for in a machine.


Thanks,

Damien Thiriet

You should carefully review

To quote from it:
--
The GNU Public License and licenses modeled on it impose the
restriction that source code must be distributed or made available for
all works that are derivatives of the GNU copyrighted code.

While this may be a noble strategy in terms of software sharing,
it is a condition that is typically unacceptable for commercial use of
software. As a consequence, software bound by the GPL terms can not be
included in the kernel or runtime of OpenBSD, though software
subject to GPL terms may be included as development tools or as part
of the system that are optional as long as such use does not result
in OpenBSD as a whole becoming subject to the GPL terms.

So, if you decide to license your driver under any version of the GPL,
it will not become an official part of OpenBSD as long as it has that
license.

be removed when the driver is ported to BSD with a valid license?



Pieces of code? Did you even look at this repo? Every single file has a

You clearly have not read and understood the GPL or our policy page that

On 2/9/2013 10:11 PM, Crookedmaze wrote:

Yes, System Administrator I have had a look at the FAQ the reason I am
asking about such a tool is because it seems as if the only way to
update OpenBSD (Errata update wise) is to download a patch from
the errata page and to manually patch the source code then follow the
instructions for applying the patch (Or you could follow stable using
CVS). I just thought it would be easier (and Simpler) if you were
able to patch the version of OpenBSD you are running by simply typing
openbsd-update which would then apply the security update by download
and installing a binary package. I also don't think that it would
require as much overhead as you might think because currently
(OpenBSD 5.2) there has only been one release errata patch and in
OpenBSD 5.1 there was also only one. So it would really only require
a few binary packages (or at most 18 depending on the number of
architectures affected) to be released I am not necessarily talking
  about upgrading openbsd to a new release I am more so talking about
simply applying errata patch fixes through binary packages.


Remember that generating binary patches isn't free - they need to be 
built for all necessary archs (and many are nowhere near as fast as your 
i386/amd64 machine), they need to be tested, they need to be hosted, 
they need ... etc.

and if X running and want to switch to other consoles via CM-F1-Fx
then I can see only black screen, but I'm not getting console. Only

Someone with similar symptoms?

Fail. Was working just fine on this same laptop with 5.1-current with

Excellent work stating that in your initial email.

My loongson patches didn't make 5.1 so either run -current (recommended) 
or backport my patches to 5.1


Either way, you won't get JavaScript, so please keep that in mind (or 
help me out! :) )
