RE: Connecting to serial port
That happens, you can try a BIOS update, and also make sure your motherboard CMOS settings specify the port for serial0, and match port 0x3f8-0x3ff irq 4, and aren't set to auto. You can also try changing the setting for plug-and-play OS to off, (or on, if it was off before) You can ignore the message: configured irq 4 not in bitmap of probed irqs 0 as long as your serial port actually responds. A lot of motherboards will emit this message but the serial port still works. Unfortunately it looks like yours isn't one of these due to the not responding error message. Worst case, disble the motherboard serial ports and buy a pci serial port card. This seems to happen a lot on systems that use pci-express, probably because they are tying the serial port hardware to the pci bus rather than the isa bus.

It's a somewhat bizarre sounding combination of the FreeBSD kernel and the Debian Linux userland. See: http://www.debian.org/ports/kfreebsd-gnu/ So, no, you can't use FreeBSD ports with this -- you'ld have to use the Debian userland package management tools (apt-get etc.) It's also still a work in progress, so you shouldn't think about using it in any sort of production setting or if you're unprepared to cope with porting and debugging software. If you want FreeBSD ports, you've pretty much got to use FreeBSD. Maybe you could use DragonflyBSD, but from my cursory reading of docco on the DFBSD site, the plan there is to make some wide ranging changes to the ports/packages system, which would probably break compatibility.

FreeBSD 6.0, amd64, A8N-SLI and 4gb ram
I've been running FreeBSD 6.0 stable on an A8N-SLI Premium amd64 box with 2gb of ram for a few weeks now and it has been running well, but some of the analysis I run needs more ram, so I dropped in another 2 gb and started having all sorts of weird problems, such as DHCP failure and running very slowly. I tracked it down to 2 bios settings, both related to PAE (one turning on s/w PAE, the other h/w) - if i turn both of those off, then everything works, but FreeBSD can only see 3gb of ram. Some documentation suggested a custom kernel with 'options PAE' enabled would be required, but adding that generates an 'invalid option PEA' error when running make. Is it possible for FreeBSD to access the full 4gb on this m/b?

I'm using FreeBSD 6.0 RELEASE with the GENERIC kernel. (from what i can tell, it has all of the necessary pieces to allow usb drives). When I plug my ipod into my computer, dmesg gets the following addition: umass0: Apple iPod mini, rev 2.00/0.01, addr 2 However, that's all that appears there relative to it. From google, I found that plugging in an ipod or a usb thumb drive should add a /dev/da0 (or similar) entry to /dev, which you should mount. I still don't have a /dev/da*, and I actually checked, and nothing is getting added to /dev when I plug the ipod in. I thought that perhaps this was a problem related to support for the ipod, but I have the exact same problem whenever I try to mount a usb thumb drive. Nothing new appears in /dev, and dmesg simply gives one line explaining that umass0 sees the item. A TA's thumb drive had the same problem. The ipod is FAT32, and has been used in linux many times. The thumb drive is currently ext3, but I'd like to reformat it to FAT32 once I can get FreeBSD to recognize it.

Re: SATA Raid
Be wary of any of the cheaper SATA RAID using si chips, there have been many problems noted you will find searching this list and the list for current. I had a lot of problems with an adaptec card that used one of those chips. Most of the cheaper cards just employ software raid, which is usually fine unless you need higher performance. Soren is the one to answer on what works well beyond the hardware list. Hope this helps. -Derek At 09:35 PM 2/10/2006, Robert Uzzi wrote: Anyone know of any of the cheaper SATA raid cards that work well under FreeBSD.

File verification script
Hello!
I need a simple script that uses CFV to report on broken MP3 albums.
All my MP3 albums contain an .sfv file that list MP3 tracks with
their CRC values.
I just need something simple like:
([EMAIL PROTECTED])(16:23:02/10/06)
(%:~) verify
curtis_mayfield-superfly_ost-1972: Corrupt
miles_davis-four_and_more-reissue-2005: Corrupt
sun_ra_and_his_outer_space_arkestra-nuclear_war-2002: Corrupt
How would that look like?
The reason I'd prefer something as simple as this, is because most SFV
validation tools are so bloated with useless features.
Anyway ...
I have different SFV script though. It uses CFV to go into all MP3
albums containing
an information file (.nfo) and then generating an SFV of the MP3
tracks, giving it
the same name as the .nfo. For those who are curious, it looks like this:
#!/usr/local/bin/bash
#
# Generate SFV and M3U based on NFO.
# $ARBA: seal.sh,v 1.0 2007/11/11 15:09:05 vaaf Exp $
#
# Requires CFV.
#
for file in `find -s $(pwd) -name \*.nfo`; do
directory=`dirname ${file}`
prefix=`basename ${file} | sed 's/.nfo//g'`
current=`basename ${directory}`
sfv=${directory}/${prefix}.sfv
m3u=${directory}/${prefix}.m3u
cd ${directory}
rm -f *.sfv; rm -f *.m3u
touch ${sfv}; cfv -Cq *.mp3
cat ${current}.sfv | awk '! /^;/' ${sfv}
rm -f ${current}.sfv
for mp3 in *.mp3; do echo ${mp3} ${m3u}; done
echo $current: Done
done
Take care people!

RE: SATA Raid
Most of the cheaper cards just employ software raid, This isn't accurate. All cards, even so-called hardware raid cards, use software in their firmware. software raid refers to when the host CPU is doing the raid management, and that isn't what is happening with chips like the promise, highpoint, and intel ich that I posted. Those chips are mirroring/striping only, and do not offer raid 5 so there is no parity calculation going on. Instead, when the driver does a write to the chipset, the chipset duplicates the write between the disks. That is the same principle as the bigger and more powerful hardware raid cards like the compaq/hp intelligent array controller when they are in raid0 The only significant difference between a real raid card like the HP/Compaq intelligent array controller and the cheaper raid chipsets is that you cannot attach the cheaper ata raid chipsets to hot-swap disk drive cages, and pull out one of the hard drives while the server is in operation, replace it, and have the raid controller detect all this and silently rebuild the array without interrupting reads and writes to the host operating system. Instead, if a disk drive dies, you have to shut the server down, replace the drive, and reboot into the BIOS so you can run the utility that rebuilds the array.

Xeon CPU temp
Wasn't sure if this would be better directed to -hardware. I'm attempting to read the temperatures of my CPUs on my dual Xeon Tyan 2720 running 5.4-STABLE. According to the manual, the motherboard has supports diagnostics via smbus, so I dutifully built a new kernel with the smbus and i2c options. The docs says Winbond 83782D is accessible on slave 0x29 for CPU fans, voltage and system temperature. The W83627HF at slave 0x2A has 3 addtional chassis fan sensors. So far, no problem. I've been able to read these via healthd, xmbmon or lmmon. I've fiddled with them a bit to make sure they're looking at the right slave address, but other than that reading the smbus makes sense. Here's where I'm stuck. The manual says the Xeons have on-chip thermal sensors at slave 0x18 0x19, both at bank 0 and register 0. When I try to read these, I get a Device not configured error from the ioctl call. I've come across a few refs to the hw.acpi.thermal.tz1.temperature sysctl, but that OID's apparently not available to me.

Then, it printed something about umass0 detatched (it went by really fast), and then it continued booting. I tried rebooting again, this time with my thumb drive, and it booted fine, but i still didn't have /dev/da* and dmesg still didn't have any more information than before. I tried it also with a full power-off between each part, but the only difference was that this time, the kernel panicked when i unplugged the ipod after a couple minutes of hanging...

Re: I can't mount my USB thumb drive or ipod -- no /dev/da*
In message [EMAIL PROTECTED], Erin S
harmahd writes:
I'm a bit of a newbie, but I've done a good bit of research, and some
asking around on this issue, and haven't been able to resolve it yet.=20
I'm using FreeBSD 6.0 RELEASE with the GENERIC kernel. (from what i
can tell, it has all of the necessary pieces to allow usb drives).
When I plug my ipod into my computer, dmesg gets the following addition:
umass0: Apple iPod mini, rev 2.00/0.01, addr 2
However, that's all that appears there relative to it. From google, I
found that plugging in an ipod or a usb thumb drive should add a
/dev/da0 (or similar) entry to /dev, which you should mount. I still
don't have a /dev/da*, and I actually checked, and nothing is getting
added to /dev when I plug the ipod in.
Unfortunately a number of Apple iPod devices don't work with 6.0
release. FreeBSD sends a command to the device that causes the iPod
USB interface to get confused and it stops responding. This was
fixed in 6-stable, so you'll need to upgrade or patch the kernel
to get it to work.
You could also just manually remove the offending code. The change
you need to make is in /usr/src/sys/dev/usb/usb_subr.c. Find the
usbd_setup_pipe() function, and then put a '#if 0' and '#endif'
around the code for clearing stall conditions, i.e.:
#if 0
/* Clear any stall and make sure DATA0 toggle will be used next. */
if (UE_GET_ADDR(ep-edesc-bEndpointAddress) != USB_CONTROL_ENDPOINT) {
err = usbd_clear_endpoint_stall(p);
...
return (err);
}
}
#endif
Then recompile and install the kernel, reboot, and the iPod should work.

You can format any line or block of text in vi(m) by passing it through an
arbitrary filter program.
I have this line in my ~/.vimrc file which formats whatever paragraph the
cursor is in by running through a script I wrote that formats its standard
using ``groff -mm''. The ``{'' positions the cursor at the beginning of
the paragraph and the ``!}'' says filter to the end of the paragraph.
map F5 {!}gfmt
You can also type a command on a line, and execute it replacing the
contents of the line with the output of the program. If I want to get
copies of all my signature files containing the text ``democracy'' I could
enter the following line, place the cursor somplace in that line, and press
``!!shRETURN''.
cat `grep -li democracy ~/.signature.*`

Additional Hard Drive Prblems
Hello Everyone, Thanks in advanced for helping me. I am doing a new install of FreeBSD 6.0 RELEASE My computer is a Dell PowerEdge 400sc I have 2 hard drives installed in the computer: 1 80GB IDE hard drive and 1 200 GB SATA hard drive I can install FreeBSD on the IDE drive (detected as ad0) fine and have no problems. The issue arises after the install when I try to fdisk and Label the SATA drive (detected as ad4). I want to use the SATA drive as a depot of sorts to hold all my media. I use sysinstall after the installation to slice and label the drive. After I do this and reboot FreeBSD will not boot properly. I usually get just a blinking cursor where the boot loader should be or an invalid partition error. I have tried installing with a boot loader, without a boot loader, I have verified I am slicing and labeling the correct disk. I'm kind of at my wits end.

Dell 530 RAID 5 Recommendations
I am considering using FreeBSD 6 on an old Dell Precision Workstation 530 MT. It has Dual Xeon 1.5 GHz CPUs, 4 x Fujitsu AIC-7892A MAJ3182M SCSI HDs, 1 GB RDRAM, Nvidia Elsa Gloria II Pro video, Integrated 3Com NIC, Lynksys Wireless-G USB network adapter, and Integrated Adaptec AIC-7892 SCSI controller. I would like to setup RAID 5. The intended use is in my home network as a personal SOA/J2EE/MySQL development box and family file server. Please review and comment on my assumptions: 1) FreeBSD 6-STABLE has fixed any 5.X SMP issues. 2) I will need an additional RAID controller card. 3) FreeBSD has issues similar to the folks at OpenBSD (my firewall OS) regarding Adaptec - http://www.openbsd.org/i386.html: we do not recommend the Adaptec cards for use. * Adaptec AAC-2622, AAC-364, AAC-3642, 2200S, 2410SA, 2610SA, 2810SA, 21610SA I would appreciate some recommendations with a focus on price/performance.

(no subject)
I would like to have the source code of (the set of) programs that can read from/write to any sector of a disk without a file-system, think of them as the disk i/o programs that underly the file-system. I expect them to have (collectively) about four arguments, one specifying the disk to access, the second pointing to a buffer (supplying the data to write or to accept the data read), the third stating the number of bytes to transfer, and the fourth giving the LBA address of the sector to be accessed. One function common to both the read program and the write program is the function to position the disk read/write head at the desired sector (given by its LBA ) [or notify the user via an interrupt (which one?) when that sector is at the read/write head]. This function is often named seek. Source code with good comments are more desireable. One could combine the read write programs into one program and add another argument telling the program whether it is to read or to write. One program that meets some of these requirements (but not all) is fdisk [it accesses only sector 0 ]. Its source would also be appreciated, all of those in the following versions of FreeBSD if available: versions 4.3, 4.7, current-stable (6.0). ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

If you want redundancy and cheap and SATA then replace your motherboard with one that has a SATA raid chipset on it and these existing SATA drives you apparently already have.

Have checked the last week or so of the cvs mailing list for samba found nothing, so I didn't rerun portsnap portupgrade. Already so many dependencies installed for apsfilter, I hated to update anything else right in the middle of all of this. Tried running the make command with -DIGNORE_VULNERABILITIES but still no dice. Any advice, pointers to reading up on it, help, appreciated. Denny White Denny, Samba3 is in the ports try that instead. Please do not CC me. Already subscribed to mailing list. I suggest you set you reply to the list then.
