Trouble configuring FreeType BCI hinting
I realize that this is of marginal relevance to this mailing list, but I like you guys, so I wanted to ask here first: As soon as I got my 4.1 CDs (great theme, by the way), I popped them into my old Inspiron 8200 and started the install. For kicks, I decided to recompile XF4 with FreeType's BCI hinting (by uncommenting the line #define TT_CONFIG_OPTION_BYTECODE_INTERPRETER in xc/lib/font/FreeType/module/ftoption.h). I then enabled hinting and sub-pixel anti-aliasing with the following X resource settings: Xft.hinting: true Xft.hintstyle: hintfull Xft.antialias: rgba Xft.rgba: rgb These settings make 90% of my fonts look amazing. However, in certain fonts -- especially Georgia and Bitstream Vera Serif -- glyphs' diagonal lines now appear blotchy. Here's an example of Georgia at 14pt in Firefox: http://markshroyer.com/files/georgia-hinted.png On the other hand, if I set Xft.hinting: false (reverting FreeType to its patent-unencumbered auto-hinting mode, if I am not mistaken), everything returns to normal: except that my Webcore fonts are no longer as crisp as genuine pixel-aligned TrueType hinting would allow for, of course. I'm sure I'm not the only one here who's recompiled XF4 for TrueType hinting, so any (ahem) hints? Thanks in advance... Mark -- Mark Shroyer [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://markshroyer.com/
HP ProLiant DL140 G3 problems
Hi all! I have a HP ProLiant DL140 G3 coming in soon, that I really would like to run OpenBSD 4.1 on. Its predecessor runs OpenBSD (sparc). If I do not succeed it will wind up running SLES 10 and that is a pity. I have used a snapshot of OpenBSD amd64 from April 24. HP ProLiant DL 140 G2 works like a charm with OpenBSD 4.0. The problems: 1) something with keyboard interrupts. When booting with a PS2 or USB keyboard attached BIOS, CDBOOT and boot(8) works fine, but the kernel gets no keyboard. using boot boot cd0a:/4.1/amd64/bsd.rd -c gives an UKC promt but does not respond to keystrokes. First changing the console using boot set tty com0 and then boot boot cd0a:/4.1/amd64/bsd.rd -c gives a serial console that is usable. The dmsg is attached 2) something with internal USB devices. The axe(4) driver mistakes something in the server for an USB network card and fails to configure it. Therefore the disabling of the axe device in the following dmsg output. I can live without an axe device so this is not a big problem. At the end of the dmsg there is something concerning keyboard interrupts. What can I do about it? -- / Raimo Niskanen, Erlang/OTP, Ericsson AB [demime 1.01d removed an attachment of type application/octet-stream]

[landisk] a question for other users
I realize the landisk platform wasn't added until 4.1 and 4.1 is not yet officially released on the ftp site, but I haven't seen much from other users. It wasn't that hard to download a miniroot, dd it to the landisk hard drive, cvs src with OPENBSD_4_1 tag and build a release. Are there many of y'all out there? It's a pretty cool platform to run DNS servers, spamd traps and various other things on. I have a question for the developers. Is there away to have the box restart automagically after power loss? Maybe it's a setting for the ROM monitor on the box? I don't know 'cause I've never actually run one of my Plextors with the stuff it came with. If I've missed something obvious please feel free to hit me with a giant clue stick. diana

This weird freeze still answer to ping, and consoles changes, but I can't log in, and everything else stops to answer. Can anyone give me a clue on how to pinpoint this problem? I just need to know what is causing, so I can think of a solution. There is plenty free RAM, no swap use, and the server load doesn't go any higher than 5. I am really lost with lost problem.

Is there some command that shows the READ disk stats and WRITE disk stats, SEPARATELY? Thanks.

Accept the fact that some people know more about running a project on a limited budget and limited resources. We DON'T want LESS time spent hacking and MORE time spent dealing with getting packages available before the release. Wait until May 1st. Then you can perform a CD upgrade to 4.1. Then you can point to the new packages and use pkg_add to upgrade.

This book was to have been printed in the USA and shipped to the Belgian and Sweet Grass, MT, USA depots in early April. We know from past events that Jacek is subject to a certain chronic illness that can sometimes suddenly put him in the hospital for a few months at a time. If such is the case, we wish him all the best. For the mean time we have removed the book from the order pages, and will ship existing orders without the book, showing it as a backorder. If anyone knows which US printer Jacek had the books made at we would try to trace them from that end. Let us know.

I only do it when one disk is low-usage (second disk with just MP3s on it, or whatever) and the other channel is already in use. Yes I am aware that it is recommended to put HDs on a different ide channel. I just forgot about it and I never had any problems with it until about some 3.9 snapshot started misbehaving. And it never improved even though I found some cvs log messages that promised to fix the `syncing disks...' bug. And the behaviour was erratic so I never sure when it started, what started it and when it may have been fixed. So it's the typical situation where one problem is triggered by a change pretending it's another problem. Which made it very hard for me to figure out since it didn't seem to make sense. Anyway, my request: I'd like it if the kernel would behave more gracefully incase of a setup where more than one HD is on the same IDE channel. # Han
G5 Xserve wanted in Brisbane, Australia

Hackathon is coming up
The annual Calgary hackathon is coming up in a bit less than a month. As usual, this is a good time to remind people that developers need toys that they can fix/support, so maybe everyone can take a peek at http://www.openbsd.org/want.html and see if there is anything they should send to us to make the week-long event better. If you spot anything you can supply, it is worth while talking to the developer who asked for it, and to me as well. It may be better to send the equipment direct to me, so that the developer does not have to bring it to Calgary in their suitcases (maybe that means they can bring a bit more clean underwear). As always, I want to remind people that this is a good time to get extra laptops (via me) to developers who live in poorer countries or who face difficulties with fascist border guards. If you have any machines to contribute, drop me a note. There are always developers struggling with crappy laptops. Thanks.
