Supported uvideo(4) device not recognized: Logitech QuickCam E 3500 Plus

2009-01-29 Thread demonsonly
man 4 uvideo says that Logitech QuickCam E 3500 Plus is
supported.

My OpenBSD 4.4 release boxes do not recognize the device at all
(while recognized as uaudio by OpenBSD 4.0, e. g.).

usbdevs(8) says:
getdevicedesc: ioctl: Input/output error
getstring: ioctl: Input/output error
(full output below).

With 4.4 there is no output in /var/log/messages.

Problem seems to be OpenBSD 4.4 specific (see below for other
versions).

I have connected the camera to at least 3 different OpenBSD 4.4
boxes and have experimented with 3 different USB PCI cards in
conjunction with 2 of those boxes (output of one 4.4 box below).

I have re-checked the behaviour with a 2nd camera of the same
type (not all combinations mentioned, though).

In addition, a USB stick connected to the same USB card (after the
camera but while the camera was still plugged in) did not even
show up in usbdevs(8) output.

To produce some dmesg-style output I have connected the camera
to several non-4.4 OpenBSD boxes, including 3.x, 4.0 and 4.3.

All of the non-4.4 boxes have shown somewhat expected behaviour
(output of a 4.0 box below).

Questions:

1. I have seen that there were many uvideo(4) changes between
4.4 and 4.5. Do they fix the problem?

2. Am I missing anything obvious? Any way to get this up and
running without using -current?


Output of a 4.0 box first because with 4.4 there is only
usbdevs(8) but nothing in /var/log/messages.

Re: relayd.conf use $ext_if or interface name?

2009-02-01 Thread demonsonly
Description of your setup was not very detailed.

Assuming that
a) you have one box at home,
b) you want to run a webserver on it,
c) have no redirection possibility on the other side of your providers
port-80-filter,
d) you are using pf.

If you do not want to change your httpd setup to port 8080 you might
want to try something like this in your /etc/pf.conf:

rdr on $ext_if proto tcp from any to ($ext_if) port 8080 - \
($ext_if) port 80

See http://www.openbsd.org/faq/pf/rdr.html

You might want to read the section labelled Redirection and Packet
Filtering to avoid filtering issues.

 My box is on verizon's fios, and the dhcp address can change ever
 hour.  They also block incoming 80.  I am looking at having httpd
 listen on 8080 or using relayd, so was just poking around.  Thanks.

Re: Ralink RT2860 PCI cards?

2009-02-01 Thread demonsonly
Longshine LCS-8031N

Note:
Manufacturers PDF says Complies with PCI 2.3 but the
information on the products packaging is not consistent
(depending on the language it is PCI 2.2 or 2.3).
I think it is a PCI 2.3 device.
So you might want to make sure your mainboard actually
supports PCI 3,3V.


 I am looking for a Ralink RT2860 PCI (not mini pci) card. Any
 recommendations? Nobody puts the chipset in their ads.

Re: KDE installation problem

2009-02-02 Thread demonsonly
As Hannah said you need to run
X -configure
before adjusting the resulting file (and before moving
it to the location mentioned).

You might want to run
find / -name X -exec ls -l {} \; 2 /dev/null
to find out which man page to look for
(unfortunately, it is not just man X).

X related man pages are somewhat overwhelming, though.

If you want to save some time or prefer printed information
then you might want to grab a copy of X POWER TOOLS.

 Original-Nachricht 
 - xorg.conf is not created at that time, probably a bit later on in the
 graphical process. I used find command but it does'nt find anything.

  /etc/X11/xorg.conf. If it's not present, the X server autoconfigures,
  but sometimes the settings derived by autoconfiguration probably won't
  fit. You can generate a template xorg.conf by running X -configure
  (probably as root). That should terminate soon and leave a file (a
  message on the text console should tell you where the file is, usually
  in $HOME). Move that file to /etc/X11/xorg.conf and edit it to suit
 your
  needs. Test it using startx rather than xdm.

umsm: Option GlobeTrotter HSDPA ICON225 not working (was: usb hsdpa modem not working)

2009-02-13 Thread demonsonly
Same situation here. This seems not to work, at least not
with this version of the modem (see below, I tried it on
several 4.4 release boxes).

Exactly the same behaviour as described by the OP.

The third serial port is just missing so I could not set
up ppp (see man 4 umsm for details on 3rd serial port).

BTW, the name of the supported device given in man 4 umsm
(Device: Option GlobeTrotter HSDPA ICON225 Bus: USB)
might be wrong.

I could not verify that Option use names like GlobeTrotter
or GlobeSurfer for this item themselves.

Option seem to call this device just iCON 225.

GlobeTrotter and GlobeSurfer might be names of different
products (while used for iCON 225 by some resellers).

In Germany, this item seems to be available branded as
web'n'walk Stick from T-Mobile.

I think this is the same as the iCON 225 (see text taken
from bottom label below - and it looks the same).

You might want to make sure it actually works with your setup
before purchasing it.

Text from bottom sticker:
FCC ID NCMOGI0225
Model GI0225
QUALCOMM 3G CDMA
Designed in E. U. by Option

this item:

 Hi!
 
 I'm having the same problem, no reply from the ucom0 or ucom 1.
 Did you have any luck getting it to work?
 (same HW btw)

  Subject: usb hsdpa modem not working
 
  hi list,
 
  i have a t-mobile usb web'n'walk stuff for testing. i attached it to a
  4.4 GENERIC and
  realized that first it attaches umsm0 and then immediately deattaches
  it. then umsm0
  and umsm1 attached along with ucom0 and ucom1. i can open the
  /dev/ttyU[01] but
  they don't respond to any AT commands.
 
  from umsm(4) man page:
  The Option GlobeTrotter HSDPA modem has three serial ports,
  but only the last port can be used to make PPP connections.
 
  i guess i am missing the third serial port (maybe related to the first
  attach/deattach?)
  to be able to open the ppp connection.
 
  any idea?

Medion Akoya E1212

2009-03-05 Thread demonsonly
Today Aldi in Germany started selling the Medion Akoya E1212 (a 10
netbook which is said to be quite the same as some MSI Wind).

I bought one but decided to give it back due to the keyboard layout.

So the following data is not from dmesg but from tinkering with the 
pre-installed Windows XP Home.

NIC:
RTL8102E (might be supported by re(4) as of OpenBSD 4.4)

Wireless NIC:
Ralink 2860 (might be supported as ral(4))

Graphics:
Intel 945 Express Chipset

Some notes regarding the keyboard (German layout!):

1) The bottom-left key is Fn but not Ctrl.

2) Extra wide Right-Shift means that , and . and -
are less wide than usual and really not perfect for
10-finger-typists (if much of your time is on the command
line you might want to consider that).

3) If your fingers are not too big you might well be able to
type fast with 10 fingers, except for some smaller keys.

BTW, the USB connectors are very, very tight.
