error while loading shared libraries: libX11.so.6
I recently upgraded to 6.1 beta3, and am now having a problem with Realplayer. When I try to start it from the command line, I get the following: # realplay /usr/X11R6/lib/RealPlayer/realplay.bin: error while loading shared libraries: libX11.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory I googled, but there does not seem to be a fix. Any suggestions for fixing are appreciated.

Sound Crackling When Reading From Hard Drives
Hi everyone. I have been experiencing problems with sound crackling under certain situations of disk activity for the life of this machine. It has occurred with 5.4-RELEASE, 6.0-RELEASE, and three different versions of 6.1-PRERELEASE. It's not a huge problem but I thought I'd post about this situation in case there is a known fix, and if not then offer to help try any patches to get it resolved assuming it's not my hardware being odd. First off, the relevant hardware is as follows (full dmesg attached): Athlon64 3000+ GA-K8NS Pro Motherboard (nForce3) 1.5GB RAM Sound Blaster Augidy 2 Platinum 6 PATA hard drives (varying sizes, see dmesg) Promise ATA Card (PDC20269) Originally I thought it was just when extracting archives like tar or rar which uses disk I/O and CPU power to extract them, but tonight I was just copying data between drives which I don't do very much and the problems occurred as well. So then I started doing some tests of copying an 800MB file back and forth between hard drives while playing a music file and documenting my results. My results and the hard drives are at the end of this message. I didn't test every possible combination because I realized that it probably has to do with reading from drives in general and not just extracting archives. I then did another test with md5 to test my reading from disk theory. When using a utility like `md5`, sound crackling occurred when using `md5` on files from the same source drives that had problems copying FROM in the below tests. In other words, copying a file from ad12 to ad0 produced heavy crackling in the below copy tests but copying the same file from ad0 to ad12 did not. When using `md5` on the file located on ad12 it makes the bad crackling noise, but once again it has no crackling problems when md5ing the same file located on ad0. Three of the drives are on the motherboard's on-board controllers. The mobo has a total of four onboard IDE channels, so each hard drive is master on it's own dedicated channel and the DVD burner has it's own channel too. The remaining three hard drives are on a Promise (PDC20269) PCI ATA card. They all have brand new proper cables and have no other problems. The same result happens with different music file types (ogg, wave, mp3) being played back from various drives. When rebuilding for 6.1-BETA4 I tried the ULE scheduler instead of the 4BSD. ULE seems to do better for video playback which had some stuttering problems before, but doesn't change this sound crackling problem when reading from hard drives. However with ULE I did experience a few seconds of freezing while trying to get out of my screensaver (just a black screen) as there was HD activity in the background as well as an earlier 5-10 second freeze while playing video from one HD at the same time another HD was decoding some files, but that's another topic. I have no special options enabled in my kernel now except for the emu_10k1 driver and atapicam. Here is a sample of the crackling when doing some of the below copy tests. A few seconds of the normal song is first, then I start the copy when the crackling kicks in...followed by a few seconds of normal playback again after it's done. It's harder to notice on the second cut but I tried a couple genres of music. Again, this is not the worst problem but I'd like to help improve it any way I can (I'm not a coder, but am very willing to test). http://www.tntpowerhost.com/mixx941/FreeBSD_sound_crackling.ogg So in short, when playing audio and reading files from hard drives, the sound has crackling noises in it. It happens when extracting archives and copying files from drive to drive with my additional drives, but reading and extracting from/to ad0 (the FreeBSD install drive) always seems to work with no crackling. It's just the additional ones now that seem to have problems when reading/copying/md5ing from them. Is this some weird hardware problem on my end? Has anyone else seen or experienced this? What can I try to help narrow down the problem if it's not a known one? Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

Charactersets and encoding: switching from ISO-8859-1 to UTF-8
Hi: I have just installed a virgin system, FBSD 6.1-BETA3 and upgraded to the head of RELENG_6. Since it is virgin, I thought this may be the time to make the switch to UTF-8. Googling, it appears that UTF-8 was introduced in the base in 2004, but I find no keymaps for UTF-8 console, no fonts, no console definition in /etc/termcap. Is FreeBSD ready for UTF-8? Secondly, if I successfully switch, how do I best convert files to UTF-8? One think is text files, I assume this should be simple, but then there are all the other files such as music and images with text embedded. I have understood that UTF-8 is compatible with ASCII but not with the ISO character sets used in Europe.

Do you use MySQL?
If you use MySQL on FreeBSD, you have many choices, probably too many: which version of FreeBSD? Which version of MySQL? Which threading libraries? Where do you get the MySQL software from? How do you install it? In all likelihood you'd be happier with less choice: just the right one. At MySQL, we're talking about how to simplify this mess^Wsituation. Obviously with my MySQL hat on, I'd recommend release 5.0; with my FreeBSD hat on, I'd recommend 6.1-RELEASE when it comes out next week. But that doesn't mean that you have to agree with me, and there are a number of other questions anyway. I'd like some feedback from users on the following questions: - Which version of FreeBSD are you running? - Which version of MySQL are you running? - If you're not running MySQL 5.0, why not? - Where do you get your MySQL software from? * From the MySQL web site? * From a FreeBSD CD/DVD distribution? * Package (precompiled) from the FreeBSD web site (either directly or via a mirror)? * From the ports collection? - Which threading library are you using? Why? - Have you had to change the default installation (different compile flags, different installation directories, etc.)? - Do you have any problems that you think are related to the choice of the version you're using? Normally I send messages to this forum with the following request: When replying to this message, please copy the original recipients. If you don't, I may ignore the reply or reply to the original recipients. In this case, I'm expecting many answers. Clearly, individual answers are not as interesting as the statistics. Feel free to answer directly to me, or to copy the list, as you prefer. I'll summarize after a while. This message is *not* soliciting information about general problems you might have with MySQL. I'll certainly listen if you have this kind of problem, but please make it a separate message to this list.

For one thing, you won't get a unicode console, not on your traditional x86 hardware. It's easy to get UTF-8 support in X, though. Just set LANG, LC_ALL and some other variables (the more the better) to en_US.UTF-8 or whatever unicode locale you want. You'll have to recompile some ports with UTF8 support. Check their makefiles for that.

Re: Disappointed with version 6.0
Peter wrote: You could check and see what sysutils/healthd reports. It doesn't get all the volatges correct, but gets temps that, for me, reasonably match the BIOS and seem believable. Is it a science project or fairly simple? Trivial. From memory but it should work: Install healthd: portupgrade -iNR sysutils/healthd (or just; cd /usr/ports/sysutils/healthd; make install clean) If (t)csh: rehash Check temps etc: healthd -c 1 First temp should be motherboard, second cpu (third is the 2nd CPU which you won't have an can ignore). The temps I get do agree with the BIOS. I re-examined my heatsink and decided to redo the paste. I don't expect immediate results but I booted up and I see the temperature rise steadily from 30 to 43 in under a minute. That seems hot to me, but I believe it's well within the tolerance for the processor. AMD website would have that info. Maybe a google would reveal the kinds of temps people get for your specific processor. Mine's a 3700 with 120mm heatsink and arctic silver, so I don't think it could get much cooler. Even under load like buildworld, temp only rises a few degrees, which amazed me. If you haven't done a BIOS update, that might help your power-up issues. I have the latest BIOS installed. I actually don't have the latest BIOS but 1001, and power-up after power-fail appeared to work for me on a quick test last night. I don't have a UPS so all tests done by pulling the power lead and waiting a minute. BIOS: APM on, the relevant setting to Last State and Power On. I shutdown -p, pulled the power lead. Waited and then plugged back in. If set to Power On, machine came back on; if set to Last State, staid off. Then tried pulling power lead while BIOS was doing it's stuff. Power On, came back on and Last State also came back on. Maybe you need to check BIOS behaviour just using the power lead and not the UPS. *Maybe* it's the UPS somehow causing your problems, though I'm not sure how. --Alex ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Maybe you can find out what the actual binary is called. It is probably similar to mozilla-bin, moz-bin, etc. Actually it will be mentioned in the script but beware though that calling it directly may not work. Yes, that's a script. And a strange bug was actually in it. I've commented out some checks in it and now it works fine. So, thanks a lot for help.

No, Mozilla Suit's mail programm is named 'mozilla-mail'. It's heir by some shared code is Thunderbird (that's already explained yesterday). Thunderbird's feature of RSS-reading is the most necessary feature that caused me to use it (mozilla-mail can't read RSS-feeds).

Re: Using 'incorrect' HD geometry.
Hi, I'm using win2k an freebsd 6.0 on my laptop too, and I've been reinstalling freebsd pretty often (I'm still tring my way to have it working, so I started with 5.4 and than moved to 4.11 and 6.0) without ever changing my win partition. As you say, I'm always prompted about incorrect geometry, I hit ok and go on, than fdisk show me something like the one you got, with ad0s1 as my win (NTFS) partition and ad0s2 as my freebsd partition. All I do at this rate is to set my ad0s1 to be my active partition (I boot both from the win 2000 booter) than I go ahead leaving the MBR as is and install freebsd in freebsd partition. Unfortunately I've never been able to keep the /usr label as is (I always delete them all and start from a auto layout), and I can't help you if you're willing to keep their data safe. I got this article as model when I first did it: http://taosecurity.blogspot.com/2004/10/dual-boot-freebsd-5.html My windows partition was out of order only once, when I forgot to set it bootable, but this is because I actually boot both OS from it: I went back to fdisk, fixed it and got my windows working with no problem. I can't tell you to go ahed with no backup... but I can say your win partition is pretty safe with freebsd fdisk. Regards Lila John Murphy ha scritto: If I just immediately 'Q'uit the darned thing will it not make any changes to global drive geometry? It would probably take me several days to get my win2k installation back to how it is now, if I lost it. All I really want is for the installer to use the freebsd slice as is.

Thanks a lot for your support. One more thought off the top of my head. What does ls -lsak /home/.snap show? I know there can be issues with snapshots in the 5 series and having more than one snapshot can be a bad idea. I don't think that's it because your dump -S without -L showed pretty much the same as with -L, but just in case. If you do find any snapshots (I believe dump would leave one called dump_snapshot or .dump_snapshot or something obvious if it gets interrupted (by a power failure, for example) then you can delete with rm. I don't hold out much hope but it's easier than a dump/restore).

When the opportunity presents itself we install and test new software or new versions to help the developers move forward (we tested and ran Ruby On Rails for three months, now working with it to see if it has a place in our development environment). But we cannot do that all the time. Also we have many older pieces of hardware that cannot run a newer version because the older hardware cannot support the newer OS, which in turn is required to run the newest MySQL.

The new MySQL, if not compatible with the old MySQL, does me no good. Example, we have many old Sparc boxes, still going strong, running Solaris 2.5 and MySQL 3.23. If I use MySQL 5.0 I can no longer use replication. So an upgrade to MySQL 5.0 means new hardware. It's a hard sell upstairs unless the new combination offers substantial improvement. (Yes the Sparcs are old, but they run, and they run, and they run. Sometimes we forget to check on them they are so reliable, I wish my new hardware was as good). I should rephrase that, it sounds like I am complaining which I am not. We use a lot of replication to push management changes from tech support down to Radius, DNS, FTP servers running MySQL. If we install MySQL 5.0 on my new servers, we cannot use replication to my MySQL 3.23 servers, many of which are the old Sparcs. Of course any replacement for the old servers will use a newer version of MySQL, and eventually we will get all our servers running version 4.X. But by then you will be asking if anyone is running MySQL 7, and if not, why not. Also, keep in mind, if MySQL runs for months on end as a Radius backend, or DNS, or FTP. If we never have to do anything because a script optimizes the tables once a week and the logs rotate out based on size, and it never ever ever ever lets us down. Why would we want to upgrade?

System Still Freezing
Hi all, Another chapter in the life (and death), of my Dell PE 1850. As you may be aware, I have a PE 1850 that has started to intermitantly freeze (this all started Feb 23rd).

RE: System Still Freezing
System freezes are all most always (94% of the time) hardware problems. Power supply overheating, power supply voltage output falling to low, dust on motherboard causing overheating, or first signs of hard drive failure. Running mfg diagnostic will not identify these types of problems until they become close to total failure. If you want to eliminate 6.0 as cause install 4.11. That's before all the current major changes were applied. But my money is on hardware starting to fail. If I was you, I would make an backup to different hard drive of any data I did not want to lose. The warning signs are staring you straight in the face. I had this happen to me and was so frustrated over it. Once I replaced the hard drive FreeBSD was installed on the freeze ups stopped. I still am using that HD in the same box for backup storage with out any problems since.

Then I tried 'Auto defaults for all' and lastly some partition sizes of my own. I even tried installing 5.3 which only managed to write -1 bytes. Which is odd because it must have worked before.

RE: Using 'incorrect' HD geometry.
Write failure on transfer! (wrote 77187 bytes of 1425408 bytes) When I got this error message during install it mean the hard drive had a bad spot on it. This had nothing to do with the hd geometry used. Bet your hd is udma 33. Think this is a bug in fbsd since 4.11 where this problem did not occur. I think since 5.x the udma 33 ata driver does not handle the bad track pointer to the reassigned track. Or all the hd alt tracks have been used up all ready. What I did was to allocate an very small unused partition that included that area and then allocated the remainder of the hd to the slice I installed fbsd in.

RE: VPN Server
John and Hal, The company I work for has a customer that setup 4-5 sites on a vpn network with these. The 16 port unit is garbage, it uses different firmware than the lower port count units and it locks up all the time. I have had personal experience both with the Netgear VPN devices and the Cisco PIXes. The PIX are vastly superior. The Netgears have issues with doing a lot of things at the same time, and with high bandwidth. The truth is that the commercial products that play in this space are either very good, like the Cisco VPN 3000 but cost immense amounts of money because they are targeted at large enterprises, or they are really crappy because they are targeted at the very very very small offices that don't even have a server, and the companies that make them know that the small companies won't buy a network device that costs much over $300. And most of the smaller VPN hardware boxes I've seen only support peer-to-peer mode IPSec not client-server mode, despite their marketing literature. Most moderate sized organizations use Windows 2003 with dual NICs in them as VPN servers. As a result there's no market for a stable VPN server hardware box that's targeted at the 25-250 person organization. This is one area where building a VPN server on FreeBSD is definitely worth doing.

Re: Using 'incorrect' HD geometry.
fbsd_user [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Write failure on transfer! (wrote 77187 bytes of 1425408 bytes) When I got this error message during install it mean the hard drive had a bad spot on it. This had nothing to do with the hd geometry used. Bet your hd is udma 33. Think this is a bug in fbsd since 4.11 where this problem did not occur. I think since 5.x the udma 33 ata driver does not handle the bad track pointer to the reassigned track. Or all the hd alt tracks have been used up all ready. Thanks for the suggestion. I'm fairly sure the hd is ok and it's udma66 at least. Actually I've had some success just now. There was that error message in the Alt F2 screen output saying: acd0: FAILURE - READ_BIG HARDWARE ERROR asc=0x08 ascq=0x03 error=0 I didn't think it was particularly important as the Alt F1 screen was saying write failure, but I decided to try an (minimal) FTP install and it actually completed with absolutely no write errors! It doesn't boot, probably due to a warning I ignored that it was using the existing /dev (as the partition existed). I'll try it again after tea and insist on a new set of partitions, which I believe will cure that problem. I'm so happy to be getting there! Many thanks to all for the help. What I did was to allocate an very small unused partition that included that area and then allocated the remainder of the hd to the slice I installed fbsd in. Hah! I've done that with a 40G laptop drive I was given, which had loads of bad sectors.

Interaction between mpd and ipfilter/ipnat
I have a FreeBSD firewall which does packet filtering and NAT. The internal address range is 172.16.64.0/24. The only filtering is incoming on the external NIC, fxp0. The machine also runs mpd for remote access. By pure chance I was tailing ipf.log when I connected an XP laptop to the mpd service, and immediately I saw these: Mar 16 16:57:41 inchgower ipmon[61]: 16:57:40.923619 fxp0 @0:2 b 172.16.64.168,137 - 172.16.64.200,137 PR udp len 20 96 IN Mar 16 16:57:42 inchgower ipmon[61]: 16:57:42.425811 fxp0 @0:2 b 172.16.64.168,137 - 172.16.64.200,137 PR udp len 20 96 IN 172.16.64.168 is the address given out by mpd to the laptop. 172.16.64.200 is the Active Directory Domain Controller. I'm confused as to why ipf is seeing these packets coming in on fxp0. Surely what comes in is the GRE packet to the external NIC's address, this is then decapsulated and the embedded packet routed on. Why does ipf even see it, let alone block it? I would expect the source interface to be ng0, not fxp0. From the laptop I can ping and connect to internal machines, so most packets are not being blocked in this way. tcpdump also sees the packets coming in on fxp0, but I'm not convinced they are. I guess I can only really tell if I get the switch to copy packets to another port and monitor from there. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

need help
Hi. I am relatively new to FreeBSD, have been running it since 5.1. Nothing like what I experienced today had happened previously. My machine crashed and I wasn't able to boot it back, the boot processes wasn't able to find the kernel. I then booted with the 6.0 Release CD and went into the FIXIT mode. I wasn't able to mount /dev/ad0s1a (I have an IDE drive), I then tried fsck_ffs /dev/ad0s1 and the message was: CAN'T READ BLCK 128 ioctl Inappropriate ioctl for device fsck_ffs: /dev/ad0s1 can't read disk label. That machine was 6.0 p-1 (patched once) with slightly modified kernel. Is my data lost? Can anything be done still? Any help would be appreciated.

Re: More Server Crash Saga
Grant, That is a one unit rack mount server, which makes it prone to have heat problems, particularly under any load. You might want to check the ambient heat and the internal heat sensors as well. That server uses an intel chipset (and probably an intel motherboard) which should allow out-of-band monitoring. You should see what you can use to monitor the system and see what the system is reporting prior to a lockup. It may be time to just call dell and have them send a replacement MB or entire unit. -Derek At 03:47 PM 3/16/2006, Grant Peel wrote: Hi all, Still getting crashing today ...

Re: Sound Crackling When Reading From Hard Drives
Ariff Abdullah wrote: On Thu, 16 Mar 2006 02:43:36 -0600 Mark Kane [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi everyone. I have been experiencing problems with sound crackling under certain situations of disk activity for the life of this machine. It has occurred with 5.4-RELEASE, 6.0-RELEASE, and three different versions of 6.1-PRERELEASE. It's not a huge problem but I thought I'd post about this situation in case there is a known fix, and if not then offer to help try any patches to get it resolved assuming it's not my hardware being odd. First off, the relevant hardware is as follows (full dmesg attached): Athlon64 3000+ GA-K8NS Pro Motherboard (nForce3) 1.5GB RAM Sound Blaster Augidy 2 Platinum 6 PATA hard drives (varying sizes, see dmesg) Promise ATA Card (PDC20269) Originally I thought it was just when extracting archives like tar or rar which uses disk I/O and CPU power to extract them, but tonight I was just copying data between drives which I don't do very much and the problems occurred as well. So then I started doing some tests of copying an 800MB file back and forth between hard drives while playing a music file and documenting my results. My results and the hard drives are at the end of this message. I didn't test every possible combination because I realized that it probably has to do with reading from drives in general and not just extracting archives. I then did another test with md5 to test my reading from disk theory. When using a utility like `md5`, sound crackling occurred when using `md5` on files from the same source drives that had problems copying FROM in the below tests. In other words, copying a file from ad12 to ad0 produced heavy crackling in the below copy tests but copying the same file from ad0 to ad12 did not. When using `md5` on the file located on ad12 it makes the bad crackling noise, but once again it has no crackling problems when md5ing the same file located on ad0. Three of the drives are on the motherboard's on-board controllers. The mobo has a total of four onboard IDE channels, so each hard drive is master on it's own dedicated channel and the DVD burner has it's own channel too. The remaining three hard drives are on a Promise (PDC20269) PCI ATA card. They all have brand new proper cables and have no other problems. The same result happens with different music file types (ogg, wave, mp3) being played back from various drives. When rebuilding for 6.1-BETA4 I tried the ULE scheduler instead of the 4BSD. ULE seems to do better for video playback which had some stuttering problems before, but doesn't change this sound crackling problem when reading from hard drives. However with ULE I did experience a few seconds of freezing while trying to get out of my screensaver (just a black screen) as there was HD activity in the background as well as an earlier 5-10 second freeze while playing video from one HD at the same time another HD was decoding some files, but that's another topic. I have no special options enabled in my kernel now except for the emu_10k1 driver and atapicam. Here is a sample of the crackling when doing some of the below copy tests. A few seconds of the normal song is first, then I start the copy when the crackling kicks in...followed by a few seconds of normal playback again after it's done. It's harder to notice on the second cut but I tried a couple genres of music. Again, this is not the worst problem but I'd like to help improve it any way I can (I'm not a coder, but am very willing to test). http://www.tntpowerhost.com/mixx941/FreeBSD_sound_crackling.ogg So in short, when playing audio and reading files from hard drives, the sound has crackling noises in it. It happens when extracting archives and copying files from drive to drive with my additional drives, but reading and extracting from/to ad0 (the FreeBSD install drive) always seems to work with no crackling. It's just the additional ones now that seem to have problems when reading/copying/md5ing from them. Is this some weird hardware problem on my end? Has anyone else seen or experienced this? What can I try to help narrow down the problem if it's not a known one? Any suggestions would be much appreciated. Thanks! Try to increase pcm buffersize either using kenv(1) or /boot/device.hints. # Start from 8192, 16384, 32768, 65536 # kenv hint.pcm.0.buffersize=8192 or to make it permanent, put that into /boot/device.hints Reload your sound driver. Hi, thanks for your reply. My sound is compiled into the kernel so I'm not sure how to reload the driver without rebooting. I did try the above suggestions though.

Maybe you're experiencing resource contention caused by irq sharing. Take a look at the output of vmstat -i. Try to move the soundcard elsewhere (other pci slot). Another thing to consider is PCI Latency Timer settings. If your BIOS has the option to toggle the value, try to increase it. If not, use this: http://people.freebsd.org/~ariff/utils/pcilattimer -- Ariff Abdullah FreeBSD pgpIjAT4LpVKI.pgp Description: PGP signature

I want to install freebsd 6.0 in my dell poweredge sc430 box I downloaded boot only and cd1 iso files from freebsd site. but when i try to install it the box cant boot, i have a cd from freebsd 6.0 but for i386 and boot perfect. Also I downloaded iso files from other mirros whith the same results :( Is this a problem of files in the ftp sites? does anyone have a clue to give me? You have an amd64 box, and amd64 != ia64.

Re: Using 'incorrect' HD geometry.
Mr J. Happy Chappy here, just noting a few observations: Jerry McAllister's and Lila's suggestions were quite right that the installer's fdisk would not affect the other partitions on the HD if it's allowed to just do its thing. Its interpretation of the geometry was entirely useful. Reinstalling (via FTP) and changing the partitions in the disklabel editor prevented the warning about using existing /dev but didn't make the fresh install boot. Had to reconfigure the boot manager (Ranish Partition Manager's smallest configuration) simply by saving it. I moved its 'active' partition from the FreeBSD slice to the win2k one, but I don't think that was what did it. As I had only done a minimal install, I tried installing the man pages from the disk and DVD drive I had initially tried to install from, and saw loads of similar read/write errors. The drive works flawlessly under windows and the disk is 'known good' as I have used it previously on other hardware. In fact; I was able to install the man pages from the same disk in another drive on the same PC: acd0: DVDR PIONEER DVD-RW DVR-108/1.14 at ata1-master UDMA66 acd1: CDRW LITE-ON LTR-24103S/XB03 at ata1-slave UDMA33 Those drives are connected to the motherboard with a standard 40 conductor cable, not a proper 80 conductor one. I'll replace that soon and follow up to this message if it prevents the r/w errors. I'm expecting that to be the most likely cause :) Lastly (sorry for the verbosity), after the first successful run of the newly installed 6.0 and the tweak of the boot manager, when I ran the win2k installation it brought up an explorer window showing the contents of the e: virtual drive (the last one on the first HD) and a message box exclaiming that windows had finished installing my new hardware and the system needed to be re-booted. I did so and all's well that ends well... Xorg, nVidia drivers and KDE next.
