Re: current.freebsd.org problems?

jhay For now I just went back to an older kernel that works for me. Would you please explain "an older kernel" ? I'm using a kernel as of Sep/30/2000 and it panics. *** Note that this (Sep/30/2000) kernel doesn't panic until Oct/13/2000. Between Oct/14/2000 and Oct/17/2000, "make

Re: current.freebsd.org problems?

jhay It looks like I spoke too soon. My 2000-10-05 kernel that previously jhay worked also now panics. It must be somewhere when the floppies are jhay made. Maybe there is a problem in newfs(8). peter 2000/10/16 17:41:37 PDT Modified files: sbin/newfs mkfs.c Log:

Bug in libc_r or broken application?

Just tried installing "ohphone" under FreeBSD-current. "ohphone" is a H323 compatible phone that can be used for Voice over IP, it's available in the FreeBSD ports collection. Just starting the application produces the message "User signal 2". That's it, nothing else, whatever option you supply.

Re: Junior Kernel Hacker Task: M_ZERO

If anybody is looking for a simple task to perform in the FreeBSD kernel: this is it. A quick grep tells me that there are at least 91 files in the src/sys tree which could use this flag to simplify and optimize the code. i'll probably start looking at these this week sometime...

Printing lockups in -current / Nutscrape

Hi, this has happened twice now, and I think it's about time to report it. I'm running -current Tue Oct 17 00:02:26 CDT 2000, and have noticed that under this and a -current from a few weeks ago that while printing in netscape, the whole system will lock. no panic, just big-red-button-time..

new rc.network6 and rc.firewall6

Hi, I wish to update rc.network6 and introduce rc.firewall6. - ipv6_prefix_* and ipv6_ifconfig_* work for end node - rtsol should be work to only one interface - new variable ipv6_defaultrouter is added - ipv6_firewall_enable, ipv6_firewall_type,

Re: new rc.network6 and rc.firewall6

I wish to update rc.network6 and introduce rc.firewall6. H. I must confess that I see /etc as getting rather cluttered these days. Is there no way to perhaps collapse some of the most related functionality into single files and start passing arguments or something? Just a comment.. -

HEADS UP: -current a bit rocky at the moment..

This is a friendly little heads up that -current seems to be a bit wobbly at the moment. First of all, the WITNESS code now actually does something... and manages to hang the kernel while doing so. So for now you probably don't want WITNESS in your kernel config. Secondly, there have been

m4 not in build tools for make world

Heya, I don't know if m4 should be in the build tools that are made during make world, but it isn't. And because I had the GNU m4 installed as m4 and not gm4 the building of the boot blocks went belly up (bootblocks crashed on boot). Just my $0.02 DocWilco To Unsubscribe: send

-current hangs during boot

Hi there, I've done a very recent week's make world(S) on -current, making and installing world and kernel go fine, but all hang on boot, with no error codes or msgs. When boot, all go fine at the beginning, and stop right after showing the msg: : : /dev/da0s1e: FILESYSTEM

newfs/fsck problem (bad superblocks)

Hi, I posted a question concerning fsck yesterday. A number of people replied with the 'bad harddisk' comment. I have followed up some more on the problem, and can now reproduce it on different filesystems. Below, I umount my /usr/obj, newfs it, mount it, unmount it, and then fsck it.

Re: newfs/fsck problem (bad superblocks)

Reverting src/sbin/newfs/mkfs.c to revision 1.29 fixes the problem. With just a quick review of the patch, I'm not sure I understand what forces the last dirty buffer to be written. revert the patch? try to fix it? comments? -John - John W. De Boskey's Original Message - Hi, I

PPP over ATM

I was wondering what the state of PPP over ATM is, if there is at all. And would like to offer my services in it's development if it isn't finished (or started) yet. I inquired on #FreeBSDHelp on EFNet but I didn't get any useful results. I am not sure if this is the correct place to be
