Re: Creating DVD Movies

I also was thinking it could be handy to author my own dvds, but that might not be for a while. So far, I can use mplayer to get the DVD to an avi file, but I can't find anything to get it back onto a dvd. I have tried dvdauthor, but the app kept crashing.

Crashing with HP/Compaq DL360 G3 [paging kernel developer]

RE: Are hardware vendors starting to bail on FreeBSD ... ?
-Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Marc G. Fournier Sent: Tuesday, June 20, 2006 2:24 AM To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Are hardware vendors starting to bail on FreeBSD ... ? ... and is there anything we can do as a community to prevent it? I've been a FreeBSD users since '94, and proud of it ... and have vehemently defended, all the way, my decision to use it vs 'the dark side' ... Although my above subject is a more general call, my big beef right now is with RAID controller vendors, but I don't believe that the problem is specific to them, so hopefully others will ring in ... It IS specific to them for a couple reasons, let me outline: 1) RAID is being taken over by SATA raid chipsets. Everyone knows it, and no RAID chip makers are putting money into development and support of anything other than SATA chip raid controllers. That is, their SCSI and UDMA products they are just milking right now. 2) The motherboard chipset manufacturers - like Intel - are integrating SATA RAID functionality into their motherboard sets. So companies like Promise see all their low-end business going into the toilet and they are once again, just milking it. 3) Price of disks is making everyone chuck out RAID-5 The thing to do today is get cheapo 500GB SATA drives and mirror them if you want redundancy. Instead of striping together 3 or 4 250GB or 200GB disks, just get one or two big ones if you don't care about redundancy. 4) FreeBSD needs to quit changing around the disk driver architecture. It's completely fucking rediculous. We lost a lot of good drivers due to the shift to CAM and then as soon as we got some of the popular ones back, they broke everything from the 4 to 5 transistion. Now they are doing it again from 5 to 6. Manufacturers like Intel put in their time, they wrote stuff like your storcon, and saw the FreeBSD community say thanks, but we are going to make you rewrite it again since one of our developers got a hair up his ass to change everything around again The vendors are getting sick of it. 5) The low-end RAID chipsets are getting absorbed into the ata driver as fast as Soren can write support for them. There's no incentive for the manufacturer to write a FreeBSD driver once we reverse engineer what they are doing and stick support in for it. I just read a recent thread about monitoring RAID controllers on one of hte lists (this one?) where someone mentioned that Adaptec's Official stand is that they don't support storage management under FreeBSD ... but, in ports, we have the older aaccli interface, which I understand doesn't work with newer controllers ... So, my question above, and a public call to -core, or anyone else: What can we, as a community, due to improve this situation? Simple. If you want to run RAID-5 then purchase the HiPoint card or the 3ware card, both of them come with manufacturer-written drivers. 3ware is really great, they have a developer with committ rights and they just stick their driver right into the FreeBSD source repository. If you want to run RAID 0 or 1, then buy a motherboard with a SATA raid chipset that is supported in FreeBSD's driver. Its not enough anymore to know a piece of hardware *works* with FreeBSD, but more that the vendor is willing to acknowledge us as a market ... petitions don't do anything, IMHO ... it all falls to 'money talks' for most vendors (not all of them, but alot of them) ... Is there anything we can do? Yes, reward the vendors like HiPoint and 3ware by purchasing their product, punish the vendors like Promise that force us to reverse engineer their product to write a driver for it by not buying their product.

If you look into the config files you will see two kernel configuration files: SMP and GENERIC, SMP simply changes the IDENT, sets option SMP and includes GENERIC. Simply build and install your kernel, # make KERNCONF=SMP buildkernel # make KERNCONF=SMP installkernel to get an SMP enabled GENERIC kernel.

Assuming no programming errors, you don't have to worry about a file containing bogus data after fsck has run. Unfortunately, if write-caching is enabled on your hard drive (and it probably is, for speed), then the drive may internally re-order the writes and the carefully crafted sequence of writes disappears, so there are no guarantees (or at least, not as many). Whether this is actually a problem depends on the brand, model, and firmware version of the drive, because some drives claim that data has been written to the disk when it is actually only in the drive buffer, while other drives are more honest. [... removed for brevity...] The following is extracted from Soft Updates: A Technique for Eliminating Most Synchronous Writes in the Fast Filesystem: The first author on that paper, Marshall Kirk McKusick, was the original developer of FreeBSD's filesystem, and of the softupdates system, so I'm reasonably confident that if you trust the paper you can trust the FreeBSD implementation (barring, as I said, programming errors). [...more deleted for brevity...] so I assume FreeBSD is doing the correct thing. Is correct this assumption? It is supposed to be, but I've never looked at it in enough detail to answer from my own knowledge. The right people to ask would be Dr. McKusick or a few of the other people who maintain that code. There is a mailing list specific to filesystem development: [EMAIL PROTECTED] I think that for the level of detail you are interested in, that would be a better place to ask than on this general-purpose list.

The dual core Pentium is a much lower price than the dual AMD64. By the time the software is truly ready to go 64-bit, I think I'd be better off buying a system at that point. Don't fall into the trap of thinking that 64-bit is going to be superfast, most people report very little difference in speed, except in a limited number of applications, some people say that it's actually slower. The real reason for 64-bit is support for address spaces that span more than 4GB. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Mounting an old drive/filesystem?
Hello all, We have an old dusty DECstation (last bootup circa 1993) that is finally being removed from our server room after we do one final dump of the data. If I were to remove its drives to attatch to a modern scsi card, could I still mount them under FreeBSD? I'm pretty sure Ultrix was UFS, but I'm not 100% positive.

Sendmail + Cyrus + Procmail(?) + SpamAssassin
I don't know if anyone is still interested, but I found a solution to
this problem. My mail goes Sendmail--Procmail--CyrusIMAP.
There are numerous discussions of how to configure the
Sendmail--Procmail portion, so I'll skip that.
The problem lies in the Procmail--Cyrus part. Sendmail and/or Procmail
insists on adding a From line to the top of the message, and this
causes an error when trying to pass the message from the procmailrc file
to /usr/lib/cyrus-imapd/deliver. So I wrote a little C-program that the
email can be piped through (removing the From line); the resulting
message is passed to /usr/lib/cyrus-imapd/deliver.
Here is my ~/.promailrc file. Note that all mail is first delivered to
the user's CyrusIMAP box, then it goes through the procmail checks.
This is because if I don't do this, then all mail that fails all the
conditions (recipes) gets shoved into /usr/local/mail/~, which is
basically a black hole if you are using Cyrus.
# This file is: ~/.procmailrc
#
# REQUIREMENTS:
#1) cyrus-imap (specifically, /usr/lib/cyrus-imapd/deliver).
#2) the C-program rmfromln in a reachable place (like
/usr/local/bin).
#rmfromln: the email argument is piped in; if the email
message
#has been appended with starting From line, then this line is
# removed, otherwise the message remains unchanged.
LOGFILE=/home/r2/procmail.log
###
# This is the default action; it delivers the email to the imap mailbox,
# and thus this happens regardless of the success|failure of the
recipes.
# RATIONAL: every email MUST have a To field, otherwise sendmail would
#not have passed it to us!?

pkg_add is driving me NUTS!
I have two servers, exact same hardware, exact same version of FreeBSD, in this case 4.10. When I run pkg_add blah.tbz on one machine, it takes between 2-8 hours, on the other 8-10 minutes. These machines are quad-Intel 2.8Xeons, with 4GB of memory. Ive done everything from running make world, to md5ing pkg_add, bzip2, and tar, there identical. I noticed on the one thing, on the machine that takes forever, bzip2 is only using 1-3% load, while the other, which does work, takes 100%. I have SMP compiled into the kernel, well actually, there both using the exact same kernconf.

unexpected busfree while idle on FreeBSD 5.4 RELEASE-p7 with AIC-7899
Hi Everybody, I posted this to the freebsd-scsi list a week ago but no-one has replied, why I take the liberty of posting it here as well. Sorry for bothering you, but if you have the time, I'd really appreciate your comments on the following problem: I've got a P3 system with an onboard Adaptec AIC-7899 SCSI Controller. The system came with a QUANTUM ATLAS10K3_18_WLS Version: 020W disk, to which I've added two SEAGATE SX1181677LCV Version: C00C disks to the same cable (using 80-68 pins converters). The two Seagate disks run in a gmirror. Disk activity seems to lock in periods with the above mentioned error shown in the system log. The interval of these lock-ups seem to be closely related to the amount of disk activity in the system. I can see that you, at least intended, to look at a seemingly similar problem last january, ref: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-scsi/2005-January/001662.html Where a user downgraded a driver. Is there a fix available for it now, if I i.e. upgrade to 6.1-RELEASE? Thanks in advance for any suggestions. /Fedder Here's an excerpt from the system log during one of those lock-ups.
