  php (4.4.1, 5.1.2):

At least this gives

Re: upgrading from 5-Stable to 6-Stable via source

 I have a bunch of production servers running 5-Stable branch and I was
 considering upgrading to 6-Stable.
 I have never upgraded across major version changes via source.
 Is this a bad idea?
 what pitfalls should i be aware of before starting?
1) For example custom modules like nvidia.ko.
   I recommend you just move all modules out of /boot/modules
2) Also there may be some problems with ports (shared libraries etc.)

I had upgraded my workstation from 5-STABLE to 6-STABLE, and it worked.
But later I got another disk, and I had decided to do clean install.

DMA TIMEOUT

2006-04-13 Thread Perttu Laine
I have problem with ATA drive having DMA TIMEOUTs.
It might work day or two fine with DMA mode on but then system halts on
those dma timeout problems.

hardware is:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:5:0:   class=0x018085 card=0x4d68105a chip=0x4d69105a
rev=0x02 hdr=0x00
vendor   = 'Promise Technology Inc'
device   = 'PDC20269 Ultra133 TX2 EIDE Controller'
class= mass storage

and PDC20269 is on supported list (5.4-RELEASE).

and has one 160GB drive in it. When I first got this problem I tried change
cable, changed drive to another similar one and moved drive to different
place on card. No help. Now it has been running on PIO mode about a year
without any problems at all.

So I wonder if there actually is some problem in ata drivers and is there
maybe any fixes on those drivers in new releases? So would upgrade to 5.5 or
6.1 help on this? upgrade from 5.3 to 5.4 didn't help...

I can actually run it on PIO-mode but sometimes DMA could give little more
speed so if you would be cool if I can get it work with DMA mode on.

You are jumping the gun, koffice 1.5 is not even in the ports tree
yet BUT if you can't wait I've modified the official koffice port
to build koffice 1.5.0. It compiles just fine on my system running
FreeBSD 6.1-RC1 with KDE 3.5.2.

You can get the shar file here:
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=95678
http://www.nbritton.org/uploads/koffice-1.5.0.shar.txt

Instructions:
cd into /usr/ports/editors and run the shar script, then cd into
./koffice-kde3-devel and run make install clean, The build take just
over 3 hours on a Athlon64 3000+.

I've also made it into a FreeBSD 6.x package so you don't have to
waste 3+ hours compiling it. It's built with -march=athlon-mp and
-mtune=athlon64 flags so it will not run on your system unless you
have a athlon-4, athlon-xp, athlon-mp, or athlon64 based processor.
You can download the package here, be nice to my server:

I had a similar situation under 6.0. My secondary drive would throw DMA read

PIO mode. The upgrade to 6.1 solved it, both drives work fine as DMA now.

Vinum and upgrading from 5.1-RELEASE

2006-04-13 Thread Chris Hastie
I tried to upgrade from 5.1-RELEASE to 5_RELENG last night and hit big
problems with vinum. 5_RELENG in retrospect was an error I suspect, as
what I really wanted was 5.4-RELEASE.

The system has two mirrored disks, with Vinum used for the root
filesystem. make buildworld, make buildkernel and make installkernel
happened without complaint. But on rebooting vinum loaded, but failed to
load any volumes. Consequently the root filesystem didn't mount.

I ended up manually mounting ad0s1a, then in a desperate attempt to get
out of the situation

mount -u -w /
mount /dev/ad2s1a /root
cd /boot
mv kernel kernel.55
mv kernel.old kernel
cd /root/boot
mv kernel kernel.55
mv kernel.old kernel
reboot

To my surprise and relief this worked and I managed to get more or less
back to where I started.

But what do I need to do now to upgrade this system and have it actually
work?

For info, output of vinum dumpconfig below:

Since 5.3 you should probably use the geom-aware gvinum instead of vinum.

I think the manual says that both vinum and gvinum can be used for  5.3 
but I've never actually got vinum to work on  5.3.

Problem downloading RPMs

2006-04-13 Thread Premal Mishra
Hi,

I have been tryin to install linux emulation on freeBSD. What i've done is:

#cd /usr/ports/emulators/linux_base
#make install distclean

After i do this,  a script runs looking for a particular RPMs at
various mirrors. The problem is that, no mirror sems to conatin the
file and make fails.

So i've manually downloaded an RPM each time i ran make install (as
it complained about a missing RPM). Have downloaded 15 RPM so far but
it still keeps on complaining.

Is there a way to know all the RPMs needed for installing Linux
Emulation or any better way of installing it.

Regards
Premal.

I have not had problems until a few months back, unfortunately, I am

From you PR note I see that your are running an Nvidia card, so 1) 
try upgrading Xorg as it seems to be out of date - you say you have 
6.8 but 6.9 is the latest 2) If that doesn't help then try the nvidia 
driver.


I was incorrect.  I am running the following:

cups 1.1.23.0_1
gnome2-2.12.3
nvidia-driver-1.0.8178_1
xorg-6.9.0
xorg-clients-6.9.0_2

should be current.


If there are no better suggestions then here are some things you might 
try.  These are all based on my underlying assumption that it's somehow 
the graphics card/driver:


   1) Check BIOS settings, just in case.  If there are any graphics 
related try changing them.


   2) Try the nvidia forums and see if there's anything there about 
screen corruption.  I'd try the Linux as well as FreeBSD and maybe 
anything about your specific board.

  http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/index.php

   3) You could try downgrading each port in turn and seeing if the 
problem goes away.  sysutils/portdowngrade can do that for you.  Time 
consuming, frustrating, and possibly fruitless.


   4) If you have another graphics card to hand, see if that has the 
same problem.

On RHEL 3 only PHP returns good result. In python and mysql there is the

 The problem is in the way that real numbers are implemented.  If you
 do some searches, you'll find many, many discussions of this.  Simple
 fact is that the behaviour under these circumstances is not what
 you think it is.  This kind of thing is the reason that most languages
 have high-precision floating point libraries available.
 

I will search for this. But first thing is to give up with python, php,

Sorry - I can't have been awake yesterday!  I must have seen the version on

 I've also made it into a FreeBSD 6.x package so you don't have to
 waste 3+ hours compiling it. It's built with -march=athlon-mp and
 -mtune=athlon64 flags so it will not run on your system unless you
 have a athlon-4, athlon-xp, athlon-mp, or athlon64 based processor.
 You can download the package here, be nice to my server:

 http://www.nbritton.org/uploads/koffice-1.5.0.tbz


Thanks!  It's good of you to put that up.  I'll go with the package and maybe 
next time round it will compile ok.

I'll work on manually upgrading all my ports - in fact I might recompile 
everything because I'm having wierd errors compiling OpenOffice too.

RE: DMA TIMEOUT

2006-04-13 Thread Wil Hatfield
 I had a similar situation under 6.0. My secondary drive would
 throw DMA read
 errors at bootup, adding several minutes to the boot process, so
 I ran it in
 PIO mode. The upgrade to 6.1 solved it, both drives work fine as DMA now.

Looks like the DMA errors are back in 6.1-RC with ATA or at least similar
DMA errors. The new one froze my machine with an error like Error while
performing DMA_WRITE command. A new twist to the WRITE_DMA Timeouts of 5.4.
I am starting to think that they aren't going to get the ATA issues all
worked out anytime soon so they are changing the errors. ;-)

And of course no automatic reboot on panic.

better title.
However, I think my immediate question is answered already.  RELENG_6_1
I thank you all. My system now boots successfully and reads FreeBSD
6.1-RC #1 .
If that makes me current then I better go subscribe, eh?
If upgrading fixes my original disk drive problem then, viola, a bonus!




If your a newbie the current mailing list will be over your head. You
don't need to do it anyways because your not running -CURRENT aka
HEAD... it's only for FreeBSD developers.

Try doing the disklabel from the command line, so you can show an

The Qmailrocks mailing list is really the right place to answer this.
Normally you would get an answer if you ask the right question that is!

But..

Qmail scanner is the thing that does the notification, This could be
mis-configured or just plainly not running. Try going over the
configuration again. There is some help on Bil Olson's site :
http://www.goodcleanemail.com with the settings of Qmailscanner.

BTW, the qmailrocks site has not been updated for some time, the freebsd
guide is out of date - a number of packages have been updated, Qmail
Scanner is now at version 2.00. Have a look at
http://qmail-scanner.sourceforge.net/

You may also find this site useful:

make install problems

2006-04-13 Thread hellbinder
I've encontered a problem when I tried to make install xfce4 from
ports collection. When pango was installing the error occured
libexpat.so.5 needed by /usr/X11R6/lib/libfontconfig.so not found.
Error code 1 
I've tried to locate and give the path through -rpath parameter but
it's nowhere on the disk. I've also tried to:
pkg_add -r pango
but it gave the same result.
make install OPTIONS=FORCE_PKG_REGISTER
is not helping in this case
How to solve this problem??

thanks
hellbinder

PS. Can absence of libexpat.so.5 be caused by the way I've build my
kernel?? If so what to add in config file??

   php (4.4.1, 5.1.2):

  Have you compared these results to other POSIX systems?
 
 On RHEL 3 only PHP returns good result. In python and mysql there is the
 same issue.
 
  The problem is in the way that real numbers are implemented.  If you
  do some searches, you'll find many, many discussions of this.  Simple
  fact is that the behaviour under these circumstances is not what
  you think it is.  This kind of thing is the reason that most languages
  have high-precision floating point libraries available.
  
 
 I will search for this. But first thing is to give up with python, php,
 mysql in billing software or write own functions otherwise you can lose
 money.

That's not a good solution.

Real numbers are not designed to be accurate in the way that you define
accurate.  If you want your application to behave in a manner that you
understand, then you need to understand how those numbers are handled
by the language.  A few things to research:

Did you use a 80- or 40-ATA cable?
If  you've configured your drives to do UATA-66 or faster then FreeBSD (or

X11/xterm Unicode woes

2006-04-13 Thread Andrew Pantyukhin
About a month ago UTF-8 locale stopped working in my xterm.

I fail to find comprehensive documentation on fonts in X11
and therefore I fail to fully understand and trace the problem.
I'll be most grateful if somebody leads me to a source of
fine docs, but I'm really full of doubt after much googling.
README.fonts and manpages are helpful in that they shed
some light on how to tune a working setup, but I can't learn
the way fonts work from them.

I don't have any fontpaths defined in xorg.conf, I though it
wasn't a problem. xfontsel have always shown some 12000
matches, many of which were unicode. Now I try xfontsel -
and it only shows matches in default fontpaths until I run
xset fp+ on the rest of them. Nevertheless, xterm fails to display
russian fonts, and displays only a fraction of the Chinese and
Japanese it used to display.

A couple of weeks ago I installed a fresh FreeBSD system on
another computer - and everything works great there. But my
issue is not a singleton, I stumble upon it both at work and at
home. I don't use russian in console that much, but I still do
occasionally. I have to support file servers with UTF-8 filenames.
And I start experiencing some obscure problems with encodings
(like, for example, mldonkey is totally freaked out) on other
FreeBSD systems, so I really want to sort this out.

Thanks!

MMAPmultiprocessor machine question

2006-04-13 Thread Wojciech Puchar


assume i have my program, that accesses data using mmap interface only, is 
run many times on same machine.


if it's uniprocessor machine, it's clear - all processes will see the data 
coherrent.


what in case of more than one processor. will one processor keep in cache 
data that was already modified by other?


is there any system call to FORCE synchronization when it's needed on 
given page?



on my dual pentium II machine it looks like data being always coherent, 
but how it will be on other architectures/models? for example MIPS 
processors has software managed caches - will my program work wrong on 
such hardware?


for now - it's ok because it works, but i won't like to be surprised say 5 
years after because my program breaks important data on some new machine 
it may run at.


it's multiuser database program (or will be, as it's in beginning phase) 
so such behaviour is inacceptable.

You may have solved one name resolution problem; have you
solved them all?
The N second delay problem is usually caused by something
trying to do a reverse name look-up.  You either need to disable
this, or make sure reverse look-ups work.

For my single-user personal use I quit using courier-imap as I was tired

configured correctly. Asked here, searched everywhere, and never got the
issue resolved.

Haven't tried lately. Based on my experience one could put up a good

   I lost track of the above email, but keep portmgr@ and the port

  I submitted a query to Adobe customer support via their web site.  The
  reply I got stated in part:
 
  Please note that Flash Player 8 is not supported in FreeBSD, thus it
  not mentioned on the End User License Agreement that Flash Player can
  download and installed on the operating system.  It is not that the
  web player is prohibited in FreeBSD, but the operating system itself
  is not compatible with Flash Player.
 
  I have replied to them to point out that this statement is incorrect,
  that FreeBSD is entirely capable of running Flash Player, but FreeBSD
  users such as I are now prohibited from using Adobe products.  I asked
  them if they want me to stop using it -- it will be interesting to see
  what they say.
 
  I also pointed out that if that was not their intent, they should
  consider changing the wording of the EULA.  I think that if everyone
  who is speculating about this on this list were instead to submit
  their requests for clarification (not threats) to Adobe's customer
  support, it might get some attention from Adobe.

 Let's just wait to see what they say first, it could be irritating if
 dozens of people suddenly start asking the same questions.


I think that if only one person questions this, their response will be
that there aren't enough FreeBSD users to worry about.  If several
question it (politely), it might get a little attention somewhere
above the front-line customer service level.

Anyway, the answer I got is not highly enlightening.  The most
significant paragraph (I think):

   Please note that it is your option whether to install Flash Player
   on your FreeBSD; however, please note that we cannot provide
   you with any technical support, warranties or remedies for the
   software, although it is clearly stated on the End User License
   Agreement, the only authorized operating systems where you
   may download and install Flash Player.

I'm pretty sure they are telling me that is up to me whether or not I
break the law. I already knew that.

IANAL either, but my understanding is that what BSA asks from the 
legal system, BSA (mostly) gets. Someone else mailed me privately 
that BSA had suffered some significant legal setbacks recently, but 
they are by no means rendered toothless.


There are obviously matters of formality and timing, and (if you've 
pockets deep enough) you obviously retain the right to fight and 
fight and fight against it in court, but the bottom line still seems 
to be that if BSA wants to audit someone's records and systems, they 
will very likely be handed such subpoena paperwork as is needed to 
compel the target's cooperation.


Anyway, this is getting way OT... I'm not on -chat but would 
entertain any other comments off list if mailed directly.

   Sounds like you didn't write a disklabel on it.
   That's covered in the tutorial you mentioned...
 
  I used the disklabel tool in sysinstall. But it did not seem to do
  anything...

 Try doing the disklabel from the command line, so you can show an
 exact transcript.

Here is what I have. Sorry it is not too helpful:

bsd# fdisk ad1
*** Working on device /dev/ad1 ***
parameters extracted from in-core disklabel are:
cylinders=4961616 heads=1 sectors/track=63 (63 blks/cyl)

Figures below won't work with BIOS for partitions not in cyl 1
parameters to be used for BIOS calculations are:
cylinders=4961616 heads=1 sectors/track=63 (63 blks/cyl)

Media sector size is 512
Warning: BIOS sector numbering starts with sector 1
Information from DOS bootblock is:
The data for partition 1 is:
sysid 165 (0xa5),(FreeBSD/NetBSD/386BSD)
start 63, size 102398247 (4 Meg), flag 80 (active)

bsd# disklabel -B -w -r ad1s1 auto
disklabel: /dev/ad1s1 read: Input/output error
bsd# disklabel ad1
disklabel: /dev/ad1 read: Input/output error

I don't know why there are two partitions after the ones I meant to create. 
The disklabel command comes from 17.3.2.1 of the handbook. 

I saw the thread about DMA errors. When I have this new drive attached, I get 
this (from dmesg) repeated many times:

ad1: WARNING - READ_DMA UDMA ICRC error (retrying request) LBA=63

 For my single-user personal use I quit using courier-imap as I was tired

 configured correctly. Asked here, searched everywhere, and never got the
 issue resolved.
 
 Haven't tried lately. Based on my experience one could put up a good
 argument that courier-imap doesn't even work with fam. You mean to say
 its worse with gamin?

No, I said that courier works perfectly and *only* with fam.
No problem whatsoever with it. You just need to set the right rule in
inetd.conf for fam. Otherwise you get these log warnings ;-) You could
also compile courier *without* fam support.

The inetd.conf rule for fam:

# FAM: File Alteration Monitor [devel/fam]
sgi_fam/1-2 stream rpc/tcp wait root /usr/local/bin/fam fam

Not that difficult imho.

 When I emailed them about this, I was first told that FreeBSD was not

 stating that the issue is a legal one, not a technical one, they told
 me thet the EULA must be respected. (What else could they have said?).
 
 They were understanding, though, and asked me to file a feature
 request for the Flash team, to support FreeBSD, which I did.

You are probably right. I filed the feature request, because I was
advised by the customer support to do so. They thought that it would
be beter to try to get a native FreeBSD version, than go the license
change request route. But probably a special license is an even better
solution. Anyway, I'd say it good to fellow all paths that might get
us Flash on FreeBSD, that is both try to license Flash for FreeBSD,
try to get them to make a native version, and develope an open source
implementation.

 This would probably get to

 Did you use a 80- or 40-ATA cable?
 If  you've configured your drives to do UATA-66 or faster then
 FreeBSD (or
 any other OS for that matter) will crash if you connect a second drive...

It's an 80 wire. I have two drives on nearly all of my machines and never
had an issue with crashing until just recently. Started in 5.4, gone in
6.1-PRE, back in 6.1-RC.  It doesn't happen alot though under 6.1-RC. But
under 5.4 it was about every 8 hours on average. So in one sense 6.1 is
still saving my arsh.

/usr/local/etc/rc.d and role accounts

2006-04-13 Thread Mike Hunter
Hi,

I'm hoping to get into the spirit of the new rc.d script specs (REQUIRES,
PROVIDES, command=, etc) on a new server I'm building.  The old script I
was using looked like this:

/usr/local/etc/rc.d/start-all-foo.sh

[ -x /usr/local/bin/foo ]  su foo-role -c /usr/local/bin/foo bar
[ -x /usr/local/bin/foo ]  su foo-role -c /usr/local/bin/foo baz
[ -x /usr/local/bin/foo ]  su foo-role -c /usr/local/bin/foo bof
...

I have several questions about how to replicate this behavior.  I'm still
deciding whether I'm willing to split out the 10 or so instances into
separate scripts...if I didn't want to do that, is the best way to handle
it to create a script with all 10 command and then have the rc script run
that script?

How do I replicate the su stuff?  I could say command=su and
foo_flags=foo-role -c ... but that doesn't seem very good.

As a bonus, foo would like to make pid files, but /var/run isn't writable to
foo-role.  What's the standard way to handle where to put the pid files?

Thanks!

Mike

Add the following to your kernel config:
makeoptions DEBUG=-g
options DDB, KDB, GDB
options INVARIANTS
options INVARIANT_SUPPORT
options WITNESS_KDB
options WITNESS_SKIPSPIN
# Add this if you're using a firewire console
options BREAK_TO_DEBUGGER,ALT_BREAK_TO_DEBUGGER
# Do an unattended dump and reboot
options KDB_UNATTENDED

Then recompile your kernel.  The problem you're going to run into 
since the problems you're having seem to be with the ATA code is that 
there is a good chance you're not going to be able to dump the crash 
dump to disk.  I'd highly recommend using a serial or firewire 
console.
To setup a serial console just add the following to 
your /boot/loader.conf or set it at the loader prompt.
console=comconsole
-- Firewire --
For a firewire console you'll need to load the following modules 
assuming they aren't in your kernel.
dcons_load=YES
dcons_crom_load=YES
You may need to do a fwcontrol -r on both systems to make sure 
everything is in sync.
Once loaded on your client machine, just do a fwcontrol to get the 
address of the other system.  Then to connect to the server just:
dconschat -t 00-00-0e-10-00-b0-29-d0
Where 00-00-0e-10-00-b0-29-d0 is the firewire address of the server.

Problem regarding Samaba-automonts.

2006-04-13 Thread Jostein Kjønigsen
Hi!

I got a question regarding samba automounting in FreeBSD. I'm running
FreeBSD 6.0 and have Samba3 installed.

Manual mounting works fine, but I do need to enter a password. This is
regardless if its a specific mount or mounting a /etc/fstab entry.

As far as I've understood things, to get automounting working properly
(w/o the password request) I need to enter a few entris in
/etc/nsmb.conf. And so I've done.

If I use lowercase letters for the[COMPUTERNAME] and
[COMPUTERNAME:USERNAME] section, it just gets ignored.

If I use all uppercase, I get syserror: connection reset by peer.

I've tried a few combinations of various /etc/fstab capitalization and
/etc/nsmb.conf capitalizations, but to no avail. Either i get
connection reset by peer, or I get a request for the password.

I was wondering if you guys had any suggestions as to what may be
wrong or what I am doing wrong here, because I'm pretty much stuck.

Oh. And great work. FreeBSD is my favorite *nix OS.

Re: X11/xterm Unicode woes

2006-04-13 Thread Rostislav Krasny
 About a month ago UTF-8 locale stopped working in my xterm.

I experience the same problem after the xterm port had been updated
from 206 to 210 version. As a workaround you can either: downgrade to
xterm-206 or use uxterm. I'm suspecting following change of xterm-209:

amend change for loading utf8Fonts resource from patch #204 to allow an
ISO-8859-1 normal font to be combined with an ISO-10646 font if the
latter is given via the -fw option or its corresponding resource value.

But I'm not sure. I've already contacted with Thomas Dickey
[EMAIL PROTECTED], the xterm author, and sent him a trace file of
manually built xterm-212. I hope he will localize and fix the bug before
the next xterm release.

   This is probably a hardware problem.  My first guess
   would be
   cabling.  Try swapping the cable.  And make sure
   there is a master on
   the bus if this one is probing as a slave.
 
  This is the primary slave drive. Primary master is the
  boot drive where OS lives. The master is cabled on the
  end connector and the slave is connected to the middle
  connector on the cable.
 
  The supplied documentation on the drive jumpers is
  vague at best. It only makes mention of one jumper
  (master or slave positions) There are 3 other jumpers
  on the drive that are not mentioned.
 
  Looks to me like DMA feature isn't working but I dont
  know if this is activated by a jumper or by firmware
  somehow.
 
I  dont know what causes these errors either.
   
dc0: failed to force tx and rx to idle state
dc0: failed to force tx and rx to idle state
  
   The driver tried to force the transmitter and
   receiver to be idle
   temporarily, and failed.  There are a number of
   different cases where
   the driver tries to do this, so it's hard to guess
   exactly what's
   happening this time.  Some of the relevant variables
   are: whether this
   happens at boot time, whether it happens after an
   underrun or overrun,
   and which real controller chip you have.
 
  I have seen this error on every FreeBSD installation I
  have ever had. To my knowledge, it never seemed to
  bother anything. I just hate watching errors scroll by.

 I solved this same error on my machine by adding
 sysctl hw.ata.ata_dma=0
 to /boot/loader.conf

 That slows down drive access something fierce, but it worked for me. Once
 the
 machine has booted you may be able to turn DMA access back on with
 atacontrol(8).

 The problem was ultimately solved for me by upgrading to 6.1-PRERELEASE.

 HTH,
 David

Writing a file to the drive the other day it coredumped.
So I pulled the drive and booted to an old WIn98 foppy and partitioned and
formatted the drive just to start from scratch, no problems indicated in
that process.
Then I CVSUPed to RELENG_6_1. No problems upgrading at all.
I reinstalled the drive with a different cable and put it on the secondary
slave position, and fdisk and labeled per sysinstall, full use, no MBR
changes.
I tried different bios settings like auto recognition, user defined, with
LBA, Normal and Large Modes. No change.

fsck /dev/ad3s1d looks good this time but same dmesg errors exists on boot.
This an older Maxtor 72004 AP 2Gig

Could be time for trashcan to take ownership.
Any more ideas?

  Anyway, the answer I got is not highly
 enlightening.  The most
  significant paragraph (I think):
 
 Please note that it is your option whether to
 install Flash Player
 on your FreeBSD; however, please note that we
 cannot provide
 you with any technical support, warranties or
 remedies for the
 software, although it is clearly stated on the
 End User License
 Agreement, the only authorized operating
 systems where you
 may download and install Flash Player.
 
  I'm pretty sure they are telling me that is up to
 me whether or not I
  break the law. I already knew that.
 
 When I emailed them about this, I was first told
 that FreeBSD was not
 tested and therefor not supported. But when I
 clarified my question,
 stating that the issue is a legal one, not a
 technical one, they told
 me thet the EULA must be respected. (What else could
 they have said?).
 
 They were understanding, though, and asked me to
 file a feature
 request for the Flash team, to support FreeBSD,
 which I did.

I should ask them if they have a true 64bit version of
Flash for Windows XP Pro 64-bit. If not then I'm in
violation of the agreement because natively it's not
supported. hehehe.
