Hi Stuart,
>From bsd.port.mk(5):
FETCH_PACKAGES
User settings, defaults to ‘No’. Set to pkg_add(1)
options. Instruct the package target to download
packages missing from the repository from locations
in ${PKG_PATH} and place them into
${PACKAGE_REPOSITORY}/${MACHINE_ARCH}/cache/, only
building them if no suitable packages are found.
For instance,
make FETCH_PACKAGES=
to use without any options, or
make FETCH_PACKAGES=-Dsnap
to use close to release.
This should do what you need (for -current):
$ echo FETCH_PACKAGES=-Dsnap >> /etc/mk.conf

Game controller / gamepad recommendation
Hi all, I'm in a search for a game controller / gamepad for OpenBSD and found an old article on OpenBSD Journal[0] regarding (support for) an Xbox 360 one. Good ol' Logitech has two gamepads - one wired[1] and one wireless[2] - and, according to the comments linked in a reddit thread[3] I found, both seem to work fine. So does Sony's DualShock 4. Has anyone tried Xbox One controller or Valve's, recently discontinued, Steam Controller? I'd prefer a wireless one but a wired one will be just fine if it "just works" and/or is superior to a wireless one. Yes, I'm well aware that there's no Bluetooth support on OpenBSD but am thinking of a wireless Logitech-style, i.e. with a wireless USB dongle. So far, I've been playing only "native" games and hadn't tried any emulators yet but will probably get to it eventually. Mentioning it here as, from what I understand, some emulators/games require analogue control. Information from people with any experience in the matter would be greatly appreciated, i.e. also "don't buy that!". I'm running -current.

I modify the files (either by hand or using config management system). 2. I have a /etc/sysmerge.ignore file managed by SaltStack: /etc/acme-client.conf /etc/mail/aliases /etc/mail/smtpd.conf /etc/mail/spamd.conf /etc/newsyslog.conf /etc/ntpd.conf /etc/pf.conf /etc/syslog.conf /etc/X11/xenodm/Xsetup_0 /var/cron/tabs/root 3. Let sysmerge deal with any other files upon booting into a new snapshot. 4. Every so often, usually when there's something new of interest on "Following -current"[0], or I read about it on tech@ or source-changes@, I delete the above file and simply run: # sysmerge -d and merge the new bits in (if they're not in conflict with my own modifications). 5. Config management recreates the file. The above 'sysmerge -d' line is actually part of my post-upgrade script (and is being run with the above file in place), i.e.: /usr/sbin/sysmerge -d /usr/sbin/pkg_add -Dsnap -u /usr/sbin/pkg_delete -a /usr/local/sbin/checkrestart /usr/local/sbin/sysclean The last two are available from ports.

Hi Rosselur,
$ man 1 ksh

shell process a startup file, ENV may be set and exported
(see below) in $HOME/.profile [...]
I won't quote all of it here - search for ENV.

Hi Jonathan,
During installation you can select sets you need - simply prepend
bsd.mp with a dash ('-'). Since you're selecting it, the installer
naturally uses it as the default (bsd) kernel.

Nope, firefox-esr is not a flavour (AKA flavor).
As per Carlin's email above - firefox package simply didn't get
built but you had the option to install firefox-esr.
At the time of writing this email, firefox package is available again.

If you had added the user to the 'wsrc' group using su(1) or using another terminal, then the change will obviously get reflected in the /etc/group file but it won't take immediate effect if the user is already logged on, so the easiest way is to simply re-logon. > I suspect that /usr is not owned by wsrc possibly, and that cvs was trying > to write to /usr but I cannot confirm right now.

Re: write all files in /mnt to usb using dd
Hi, What are you trying to do? If you're after files which are on the ISO image, then cp(1) will do just fine - simply mount the USB disk and copy the files. Unless of course, you're trying to create a bootable USB stick out of a bootable ISO image - neither cp(1) nor tar(1) will do the job in this case and you will need to use dd(1). Again, if this is indeed the case, *and* you are trying to create a bootable OpenBSD USB install medium, ISO won't work in this case - you'll need to use either the minirootXX.fs or installXX.fs images[0] Regards, Raf [0] http://www.openbsd.org/faq/faq4.html#MkInsMedia On Thu, Aug 04, 2016 at 02:43:20AM BST, Teng Zhang wrote: > hi, i want to write all files in /mnt to usb,so i issued the command: > > doas dd if=/mnt of=/dev/rsd1c bs=5M > > but it failed.

Hi Igor, PKG_PATH is essential - installpath= in pkg.conf(5) won't suffice - if you don't want to build ports' dependencies and prefer to simply have them install as packages, by using: FETCH_PACKAGES=Yes in mk.conf(5).

Hi Adam, Well, OpenBSD mailing lists have their own netiquette[0] so it would be nice if one did one's homework before posting such basic questions.

Hi Артур,
That's because Vim's "branch" ("\&") in a pattern is not part of POSIX
regular expressions (neither basic, nor extended).
man ex
REGULAR EXPRESSIONS
ex/vi supports regular expressions (REs), as documented in re_format(7),
for line addresses, as the first part of the ex substitute, global and v
commands, and in search patterns. Basic regular expressions (BREs) are
enabled by default; extended regular expressions (EREs) are used if the
extended option is enabled. The use of regular expressions can be
largely disabled using the magic option.
Drop it and you'll have a BRE :^)

Raf

Hi Peter, I hope I'm not being pedantic here - the code *has* been updated "only" 5 years ago[0] - yes, I know ;^) The fact that the software had not seen a *release* for over 11 years is the main issue here as OpenBSD ports maintainers don't tend to do ports which rely on vcs snapshots - a fact which has been mentioned not so long ago[1]. > Try browsing the ports tree for something similar (make search or > http://openports.se come to mind as useful methods), more likely than > not you can find roughly equivalent functionality in other packages.

That snapshot is from *before* the snapshot which is to become 5.9, so that's *not* downgrading. If you take enough care, i.e. make sure you follow current.html[0] and the update guide once it becomes available[1] after 5.9 gets released, then it should work just fine - at the end of the day it's no different to upgrading to a snapshot which is to become 5.9.

Technically, that's not true - STATUS changes[0][1] are a clear indicator at what stage the tree currently is, so 5.8-current is *before* both -beta and "release".

I'm aware of that. I only mentioned current.html "just in case" anyone reads this email in the future, when one snapshot introduced a change and, some time later, next one reversed it. If you were to upgrade from the *earlier* snapshot (the one which introduced a change) to -release, you would need to make sure to make sure you upgrade to the later snapshot (the one which reverted the change) or, if possible, do it "by hand", prior to upgrading to -release as you wouldn't see the change ever taking place if you simply followed -release/stable -> -release. But, as you can see, this is a bit verbose and, probably, too far-fetched a edge case - wanted to keep it short :^) > You always need current.html when building -current from source, > and you often need it when upgrading to a new -current snapshot. > > > Obviously, this is *not* a supported upgrade path so, if anything > > goes wrong, you're on your own. > > Not true. Upgrading from X-current to (X+1)-stable is supported. The fact that it's not mentioned as an option in the install or upgrade part of the FAQ[0] and a paragraph in the FAQ[1] (which admittedly I had read ages ago and then, it seems, misunderstood): One should also understand that the upgrade process is supported in only one direction: from older to newer, and from -stable to -current. You can not run -current (or a snapshot), then decide you are living too dangerously, and step back to -stable. You are on your own if you choose any path other than the supported option of reloading your system from scratch. Do not expect assistance from the OpenBSD development team. both made me think it is not - I stand corrected. > The amount of confusion here is amazing... :-( Probably because the documentation isn't particularly clear about it - sure, I can do it without any problems, but the fact that it isn't explicitly mentioned made me thing it is not, at the very least, "endorsed". > Yours, > Ingo Thanks for clarifying, Raf [0] http://www.openbsd.org/faq/faq5.html#BldBinary [1] http://www.openbsd.org/faq/faq5.html#Flavors

What I was referring to was that usually the apostrophe is omitted and it is written "Guy Fawkes Day/Night", which I said that it's not possessive and Jason corrected me, as it obviously is - it's simply doesn't appear as such when written that way. The way you wrote it (Fawkes') is usual for plural possessive and at first it would seem that, if using an apostrophe, Fawkes's would have been more appropriate. However, after some reeducation, I can see that it is not the case, as the "rules" are all over the place and they vary from country to country, or region to region.

One thing I can see is that on OpenBSD, you run bash as a login shell but not on Linux.

If it's not simply a faulty hardware, then it would be nice to get it
fixed. If you can't get the output on serial console, then just take
some photos[0].

Index.txt is only needed if you're installing sets using HTTP from your
own server - there's not need for it to be on any of the disk images.
If you're doing that, then install??.iso isn't at all necessary - simply
download the required files from the mirror and put them on your server.

Hi Matt, Logitech QuickCam Pro 5000 comes is two models: UVC and non-UVC[0]. Please verify that your camera is the V-UAX16[1], not the V-VAX16, model (P/N 861306) - I can't verify it based only on its USB Product ID as I'm not entirely sure whether it would differ between these two models.

The installer expects SHA256.sig as it uses signify to verify the sets -
simply download it from your local mirror[0].

Unless, of course, the calendar should show the date when the holiday is celebrated, rather than when it occurs - i.e. 2nd January bank holiday in Scotland is in fact today (4th January), a substitute day.

Stefan, the OP already mentioned (see above) that he had already tried that and it stays constant. On my machine, increasing the volume on 'outputs.mixY', where 'Y' is '2', did the trick. Setting 'outputs.hp_boost=on' (for headphones) may increase the volume further. Regards, Raf

Scott, why would you want to do that? Search the list or OpenBSD Journal - there are plethora of scripts for managing wireless networks to choose from or you can write your own. Regards, Raf

What do you mean by "no deal" - it's clearly connected to 'myid'? Have you forgotten to run: dhclient iwn0 ? BTW, if you'd like to make sure it works as intended, after creating '/etc/hostname.if' file, you can simply used: sh /etc/netstart if to configure the interface 'if'. > The strange thing is that it doesn't connect to my phone's AP even if there > is no encrytpion (open). > > Any clues?

Ooops, I read the above and only I had sent the email I re-read the subject - most likely your USB headset is not initialised before the resume script is being run. Put 'sleep 5' (adjust the time to your needs[0]) before 'mixerctl' command. That should do it. Raf [0] my USB WiFi dongle needs about 3 seconds before it re-attaches
