Acer TM 603TER freezes on 5.x
Dear list, Installing FreeBSD 5.x (5.0, 5.1, 5.2, 5.2.1, and 5.3) on my Acer Travelmate 603TER the machine freezes after being up for a few seconds (just enough time to mount my USB stick and save a dmesg). On 5.3R I get an ata1-slave: FAILURE - ATAPI_IDENTIFY timed out error message (I am not sure if the freeze is related to this), otherwise the install works okay (no freeze); did not used to be so on the other 5.x-Releases (froze during install). It does not matter if I boot with ACPI enabled or disabled; it always freezes. I do not experience that problem with 4.x (since 4.6R) and not with OpenBSD 3.5 and 3.6. I would really apreciate some advice and help. The dmesg from the last try (5.3R) is attached.

Re: Is my Apache server running as the root user or not?
This isn't on-topic for the list, but I'll answer it anyway. The Apache parent runs as root so that it can attach to port 80. After a packet reaches port 80, Apache will hand it off to a child process running as www. The parent process also does other housekeeping duties as you would expect from any other parent process.

Isn't there a way to install freebsd from hard disk with only a bootable grub? (all file systems are ext3)
Hi,all, I really want to know if there is a way to install freebsd from hard disk. This old laptop doesn't contain a floppy drive, And I didn't get a CD burner either. Certainly, The rubbishy computer couldn't be boot use pxe kind of thing. I've searched google and I have done what I can do for the result. And still no clue,So anyone here can tell me if there is a way to install freebsd from hard disk? Grub is installed in a seperated partition. And the grub manual says it can boot the bsd kernel. I am sure that it can be installed with only a bootable hard drive.I wonder if someone can make a kernel with tmpfs kind of thing supported. And a loop file contains a minimum root with bsd installer in it.Then It can do the job. Or maybe there is a solution like this already? Well,thanks all for your attention!

The relevant part of my network includes two hosts, call them FIRE and BASHFUL. FIRE is my firewall machine, It runs FreeBSD 4.3 and has not changed. It relays mail from my internal network to the world and back. BASHFUL is behind the firewall, is my new 4.10 machine, and is configured to use FIRE as its smart host. FIRE is known to the universe as FIRE.MYDOMAIN.COM. I want mail sent from BASHFUL to carry a sender address of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Instead it carries a sender address of [EMAIL PROTECTED] (if sent from pine on BASHFUL) or [EMAIL PROTECTED] (if sent from a command-line invocation of sendmail itself).

Problems with VINUM recovery
I was trying to test my ability to recover from a disk crash and managed to toast my system disk. Therefore, I do not have any relevant vinum history file or messages file. What happened is that I purposely blew away the drive named ahc0t15, and was trying to recover it. In error, I ran the create command A SECOND TIME with the exact same configuration file as the first time, and it created two aditional plexes, which it of course couldn't fit onto the physical disks, except for raid.p2.s0, raid.p2.s9, raid.p3.s5 and raid.p3.s5. I decided that it wasn't working properly, and was in the process of zapping my entire vinum volume to recreate it and try again (I had decided that my plex pattern was not the best), and had zapped the drive ahc0t02, when I accidently blew away the system disk, crashing my system. The good news is that most of the important data I care about on the system disk was copied to the vinum volume just to put some data on the volume -- but now I really WANT that data on the vinum volume, because it is the most recent backup. As it stands now, I want to: (1) delete raid.p2 and raid.p3 (2) rebuild drive ahc0t02 to recieve revived raid.p0.s0 and raid.p1.s5 (3) rebuild drive ahc0t15 to receive revived raid.p0.s9 and raid.p1.s4 (4) revive raid.p0.s0 from the valid raid.p1.s0 (5) revive raid.p0.9 from the valid raid.p1.s9 (6) revive raid.p1.s4 from the valid raid.p0.s4 (7) revive raid.p1.s5 from the valid raid.p0.s5 I think (hope!) all of this is possible. My vinum volume was created on a vanilla FreeBSD 4.3 system. The system has now been reloaded with a FreeBSD 4.10 system in order to produce the vinum list output attached (let me know if you have trouble reading the file as attached). Trying to rm raid.p2.s8 gives the message Cant remove raid.p2.s8: Device busy (16) *** Warning configuration updates are disabled. *** I am afraid to reenable configuration updates until I am sure I know what I am doing.

FDISK Woes

Is there a way to reconstruct the disk label?

What i dont under stand here is that gcc doesnt trhrow an /error/, just a warning, so, this is a behavior just por buildworld?, i mean, when building a port it doesnt stop on warnings, just on errors; i guess we are more exigent(?) (i dont know the word for: exigente :P) when building world, is that right? ###my info: [EMAIL PROTECTED] uname -a FreeBSD chiba.exactas.org 5.3-STABLE FreeBSD 5.3-STABLE #1: Tue Nov 9 17:19:54 UTC 2004 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/CHIBA.STABLE i386 ###modified variables in make.conf: CFLAGS= -O3 -pipe -funroll-loops -ffast-math -fomit-frame-pointer COPTFLAGS= -O2 -pipe -funroll-loops -ffast-math -fomit-frame-pointer MAKEOPTS= -j2 NO_BLUETOOTH= true NO_DYNAMICROOT=true NO_GDB= true NO_I4B= true NO_PF= true NO_AUTHPF= true NO_KERBEROS= true NO_MAILWRAPPER=true NO_MODULES= true NO_TOOLCHAIN= true NO_VINUM= true NOATM= true NOCRYPT= true NOGAMES= true NOINET6= true NO_BIND=true MODULES_WITH_WORLD=true ##dmesg: Copyright (c) 1992-2004 The FreeBSD Project.

Can't boot normally - syslog?
Hi, Running a 5.2.1-Current box. After we suffered a power outage, and the UPS went offline, the FBSD shut down ugly. I get the usual messages scrolling by when I try to boot, but as soon as the drive gets mounted, I see nothing but zillions of scrolling messages without newlines: = logmsg: pri 166, flags 17, from oberon,g = over and over again. I've let this run like this for an hour, and it shows no indication of stopping. :( I've booted into single-user mode, ran fsck, let it fix some inconsistencies it found, but when I try to reboot normally, I still get the same logmsgs over and over again. Looks like syslog is looping, but I've no idea how to start fixing this. Any pointers in the right direction would be greatly appreciated.

5.3-p2 freezes after kldloading snd_neomagic
Hello, I am running FreeBSD 5.3-p2 on a Dell Latitude LS notebook. (See KERNCONF and dmesg at the end.) Nearly everything is working fine, except for the sound chip. I built the sound stuff as modules (sound/pcm + sound/driver/neomagic). When I try to insert the module, I get # kldload snd_neomagic pcm0: NeoMagic 256AV mem 0xfea0-0xfeaf,0xf780-0xf7bf irq 10 at device 0.1 on pci1 and then the system freezes. If I compile pcm right into the kernel, the freeze occurs during bootime with the same message.

It doesn't compile with python 2.4; talk to the software authors or
see bsd.python.mk for how to build it with python 2.3.
Kris, I just did a fresh cvsup to make sure where I was, I tossed out all
of what I had, and rebuilt; it builds just fine. The problem is NOT
withthe binary, it's with the library.
How to duplicate?
cd /usr/ports/lang/python make install
cd /usr/ports/x11-toolkits/py-gtk make install
Then, do an
import sys, pygtk
pygtk.require('2.0')
import gtk
inside python, that ought to get you an exception, one that looks like:
july:chuckr:~/pygtk:#110./Video.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File ./Video.py, line 5, in ?
pygtk.require('2.0')
File /usr/local/lib/python2.4/site-packages/pygtk.py, line 47, in

_get_available_versions
for filename in os.listdir(dir):
OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory:
'/usr/local/lib/python24.zip'
I can't locate where any reference to file python24.zip is coming from,
but the file doesn't exist. If I 'touch' it, then it merely moves the
location of the problem along to the next one I need in my app. Something
is wrong, badly wrong, with the site-packages mechanism, and that means
that FreeBSD itself is fine, and in my own opinion, the python binary is
fine also.

For the most part is seems to working beautifully, however, for the live of me, I can't seem to get the fullscreen mode f working when mplayer is called to play a movie stream in a window inside the browser. I recall this working with mplayer-plugin before. Can anyone help ?

FAILURE - ATAPI_IDENTIFY timed out
Hello, I have a computer (x86 with one IDE drive) which I would like to host both FreeBSD and Linux. I installed Linux there, and it works fine. I then tried to install 5.3-RELEASE from the CD, but the installer failed to find the hard drive and locked with the error message ata0-master: FAILURE - ATAPI_IDENTIFY timed out I then connected this drive to another machine running 5.3R compiled from sources, and installed the system there using DESTDIR, and arranged booting through lilo -- same result. Loader's lsdev shows IDE drive, but then the same ATAPI_IDENTIFY failure happens, and List of GEOM managed disk devices appears to contain only fd0. The thread about ATAPI_IDENTIFY failure already appeared in [EMAIL PROTECTED] on 10/29/04, and the problem was probably resolved since then. Is it really necessary to upgrade to -CURRENT, or I am doing something wrong?

Re: XFree86 server crash.
ENVIRONMENT. Compaq Presario sr1053wm. I can't provide log files at this point because freebsd works badly on my machine. DESCRIPTION --- I have installed freebsd 5.2.1 about 20 times with various options on my machine. The result is always the same. The XFree 86 server always crashes. THIS IS PROBABLY NOT DUE TO BAD DISKS. I have tried disks from two different sources, including the boxed set. I have also tried version 5.0. XFREE86 DOES WORK ON MY HARDWARE I also have Openbsd and Suse on the same machine. XFree86 works on both of these systems. (note I am using partition magic) I HAVE HAD SEVERAL PROBLEMS INSTALLING XFREE86. 1.. Xconfig reports and error and asks me if I want to try again. 2 ncursses doesn't work either. It didn't write a config file at all . 3. The script version wrote a config file but xfree86 still crashed. 4. Leaving x alone doesn't work either. 5. The computer hangs when I chose the exit install option. (unplugging first doesn't help). 6 I have tried several different configuration settings including all of the different ones suggested by the Compaq support staff.( they don't really know what is in their boxes ) All of the configuration settings that I have tried have been on the conservative side. WHERE ARE THE LOG FILES? My installation of Freebsd doesn't work well enough for me to send them. Programs like Mozilla don;t work. (probably needs x).. I have not been able to get FreeBSD to mount a foreign file system so I can't use Windows or Linux to send the logs. HOW TO REPEAT THE PROBLEM Try to install FreeBSD on a Presario sr1053wm. Good luck! DOES ANYBODY HAVE ANY SUGGESTIONS AS TO HOW TO PROCEED?

drive bootable check?
FreeBSD-4.9 1) I have a second backup drive in my sevrer that I am currently rsync'ing every 24 hours. I like the fact that there is a little bit of a stagger between the drives. is there a better option then rsync'ing? 2) How can I verify if this drive is bootable? If I loose the main drive - I want to just swap the backup in and boot from it. any clues here? cheers, Noah ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

IDE Tape Trouble on 4.10: Volume Overflow
I have an IDE tape drive, a Seagate STT2A TR-5, which I have used for backups with FreeBSD 3.4, 4.3, and 4.7. I have a script that dumps all my partitions, one after the other, and depends on dump -a to notice end-of-tape and prompt me to switch tapes. I just moved up to 4.10 -- doing a reinstall, not an update -- and now dump -a isn't detecting end-of-tape. Instead, dump reports a write error and there is a console message: /kernel: ast0: WRITE - VOLUME OVERFLOW asc=0x00 ascq=0x02 error=0x02 Is this a known problem? What can I do about it? (Aside from hacking my script to use dump -B and mt rdhpos to work around it, which is mostly functional but not entirely satisfactory.) I have tried building a kernel with device atapicam and using /dev/sa0 instead of /dev/ast0, but for some reason writing to /dev/sa0 doesn't actually write anything to the tape, even though I can probe the tape and move it around with mt. (But that's another problem, or perhaps some setup is needed that I haven't figured out yet.) Relevant dmesg output: ast0: TAPE Seagate STT2A at ata1-slave PIO4 sa0 at ata1 bus 0 target 1 lun 0 sa0: Seagate STT2A 8.43 Removable Sequential Access SCSI-2 device sa0: 16.000MB/s transfers I'd appreciate any suggestions.
