Re: Configuration of Grub?
Hi, I'm using this: title FreeBSD 6.2-STABLE root (hd1,0,a) kernel /boot/loader title FreeBSD 7.0-CURRENT root (hd0,2,a) kernel /boot/loader I tried, but it still does not work. Grub is giving a file not found message. If I understand it right it searches the /boot/loader on my Linux hard disk. I have found loader and loader.conf on the FreeBSD installation disk can I just copy them?

build problems with gnupg-1.4.6_1,intltool-0.35.1
I've had problems building the ports gnupg-1.4.6_1 and intltool-0.35.1 using 'portmanager -u', or 'make install' in the appropriate directories of my ports tree. I keep encountering the messages(my comments in [] are not part of the message): WARNING: `automake-1.9' is missing on your system. You should only need it if you modified `Makefile.am'[or another such file], ... and WARNING: `autoconf' is missing on your system. You should only need it if you modified `configure.in' [or another such file]... which are repeated as the build seems to go into an infinite loop. I haven't modified these files (at least manually), and I've the following packages installed on my system: autoconf-2.13.000227_5 autoconf-2.53_3 autoconf-2.59_2 autoconf-2.61 automake-1.4.6_2 automake-1.5_2,1 automake-1.9.6 gmake-3.81_1 gnu-autoconf-2.61 gnu-automake-1.10 I'm running FreeBSD-6.1-RELEASE. Are these problems caused by the recent update of the gnu-autoconf and gnu-automake ports, that dispensed with gnu-autoconf-2.59 and gnu-automake-1.9, which may have been used to set up the latest gnupg and intltool ports? I'm confused about how my system is dealing with all these versions of autoconf and automake -- this is not the first time they've caused problems -- surely there's a better way to handle this, that doesn't require these redundancies, and create build problems? Is there a good way to work around these problems? __ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

Optical PS/2 Mouse ???
Hi, I invested 5 EUR in a nice Optical PS/2 mouse and I can't get it working with FreeBSD, neither on console nor on xorg.

tip(1) connect to another host with serial cable: vim display junk text
Hello List. This is another stupid frequent question that might already get answered a thousand times, but I cannot do effective googles because the word 'tip' is too general. Local host is freebsd 6.1, remote host is Gentoo Linux. Both connected through serial cable on COM1. Now I wish to control Linux with my FreeBSD. This command can let me login to the Linux host $ tip com1 But after I logged in I found using VIM would create junk text. It seems VIM do not know my terminal is very wide (more then 130 characters per line). So, how do I fix it? Google did give me a lot of 'tips' but none of them is related to my problem...

gmake upgrade
Hello list! it may be a stupid question, but i'm a little bit scared before gmake upgrade. I'm not using portupgrade, everything is build from the ports tree, so, when some package is old, and there is newer version in ports, then make all make deinstall make install make clean. It works pretty fine for now. But what about gmake? Will I be able to compile new gmake sources when I'll do `make deinstall in /usr/ports/devel/gmake` first? Few details: pkg_version | grep gmake pkg_info | grep gmake gmake-3.80_2GNU version of 'make' utility the latest version in my ports tree is make-3.81 The system is FreeBSD 6.1 Release with latest patches it can be a problem like chmod -x /bin/chmod, but maybe You have an idea?

Re: Configuration of Grub?
I tried this with (hd3,0,a) and (hd3,1,a). It didn't work. I got a message like: disk is not existing (don't remember the exact message) See below. If I understood right the hdd in Linux translates to ad3 in FreeBSD? 1.) the hard drive and 2.) the partition you installed FreeBSD on. hdd/ad3 I used all the disk for FreeBSD and I used the automatic configuration. ad3 may be (and probably is) correct for you, but this has no relationship with the 'hdx' format that Grub uses. Using 'hd3' in your Grub config would suggest that you have installed FreeBSD on the fourth (counting 0, 1, 2, 3) hard drive on your machine. If you have only one hard drive on your machine and have installed FreeBSD on it, you would have to use 'hd0' (the *first* hard drive) in your config. You would use 'hd1' if you installed on your second hard drive, and so on. I would guess, since you mentioned ad3, that you have installed FreeBSD on a second hard drive; if so, try the following: title FreeBSD root (hd1,0,a) kernel /boot/loader Right now Linux can not read the FreeBSD disk. Does FreeBSD have its own filesystem? Yes, by default FreeBSD uses UFS2. There is almost certainly a third party app out there that will allow you to read UFS2 from Linux if this is what you want to do at some point. You can also check 'man mount' under SUSE to see if there is built-in support for mounting UFS2 filesystems (though this is probably a long shot). Ans if it has its own filesystem how can grub read the /boot/loader in there? SUSE may not be able to read it, but remember that Grub is independent (so to speak) from Linux and has support for booting *BSD OS's. Do I have to copy the loader on my Linux drive, configure it there so FreeBSD can then start? No, not at all. Like I said, I'm sure your error is in your menu.lst 'root' config. Many people have dual-boot Linux/FreeBSD setups, and I myself used to have a Gentoo/FreeBSD/Windows setup using Grub way back, and copying files from one filesystem to another was never necessary. Is there any other way to start the system on that disk? From the install-CD maybe? Hmm, never tried. You may have to use FreeSBIE for something like this, but, again, try your config first.

Re: tip(1) connect to another host with serial cable: vim display junk text

This is another stupid frequent question that might already get answered a thousand times, but I cannot do effective googles because the word 'tip' is too general. Local host is freebsd 6.1, remote host is Gentoo Linux. Both connected through serial cable on COM1. Now I wish to control Linux with my FreeBSD. This command can let me login to the Linux host $ tip com1 But after I logged in I found using VIM would create junk text. It seems VIM do not know my terminal is very wide (more then 130 characters per line). So, how do I fix it? Google did give me a lot of 'tips' but none of them is related to my problem... You have to tell the applications the correct terminal settings, meaning number of rows and columns. With ssh or something similar this is done automatically, with tty you would set it on FreeBSD like 'stty rows 25 cols 80'. 'stty -a' shows some tty settings, including rows and columns. Alternately you could set some environment variables for vi, but that doen't work for all applications, so stty is prefered.

The second argument refers to the partition itself (which may or may not be 0), and the third argument refers to the slice. So, in /dev/ad0s1a, this would translate to what I show shortly, in Grub: root (hd0,0,a) Another method for accomplishing the same thing from info grub. This may or may not be outdated information: 4.2.3 FreeBSD - - GRUB can load the kernel directly, either in ELF or a.out format. But this is not recommended, since FreeBSD's bootstrap interface sometimes changes heavily, so GRUB can't guarantee to pass kernel parameters correctly. Thus, we'd recommend loading the very flexible loader `/boot/loader' instead. See this example: grub root (hd0,a) grub kernel /boot/loader grub boot Right now Linux can not read the FreeBSD disk.

Grub knows how to deal with different filesystem formats, but this may or may not be due to the fact that it depends upon other things available in the kernel that it bootstraps (grub has 2 boot stages). I will have to look into this a bit further.. Do I have to copy the loader on my Linux drive, configure it there so FreeBSD can then start? No. Set it up on linux, making sure that you reference the correct locations for kernels, and root disks, and you will be fine. If you have a (GRUB) bootloader setup from Linux, configure everything from there; don't worry about configuring any other bootloader in any OS, since everything else is managed by your Linux bootloader. Is there any other way to start the system on that disk? From the install-CD maybe? Hmm, never tried. You may have to use FreeSBIE for something like this, but, again, try your config first. You can try booting from the grub shell as well (similar to bash). It should say what the relevant key to enter in for entering the shell (C, E, etc). Entering in the individual commands as noted above (root... loader) will help you test boot your FreeBSD OS.

Re: Configuration of Grub?
Incorrect. If you installed the filesystem on ad3s1, it should be: root (hd3,0,a) Thank you, I stand corrected. Not sure what I was thinking there... :) Many people goof up GRUB by accident because it's numbering system is zero-based and linux-like to a certain extent, so /dev/hda in Linux translates to hd0 in GRUB, which is also ad0 in FreeBSD. This now leads me to a thought: does Grub count only *existing* hard drives on your system or does it count the hard drive channels on your system? In this case, Karl says he has installed FreeBSD on ad3, which makes me think he has installed on a second SATA drive (more likely that on a fourth hard drive I would think), and FreeBSD has counted two IDE channels as ad0 and ad1, and two SATA channels as ad2 and ad3. If this is the case, and Grub counts only the *existing* drives on his system, then he would have to use (hd1,0,a), no? This would also explain the disk is not existing error he was recieving.

Re: X server remote login
I have to apologize, as I've never had x11 start automatically for me anyplace. That said, you need to understand that the server/client relationship for X11 is backwards to what you might expect. The display, keyboard, and mouse are at the x-server side, and the machine you connect to is the X-client. On the xserver, if you want it to happen automatically, you would put startx in your .login file. So if you wanted that flag passed, you would place startx -listen_tcp in your .login file. On the client side, you're running an x-client, I presume that gets started from /etc/rc.conf. There's probably something like xorg_enable=YES, and xorg_flags=blah, and you would put it in your xorg_flags statement. dick hoogendijk wrote: On Sat, 2006-12-09 at 21:54, Derek Ragona wrote: By default in FreeBSD X doesn't listen for TCP requests.

I think I could look at : the NFS client driver but is there an example simpler than that. Also is : there a guide explaining how to go about developing TCP/IP based network : protocols for FreeBSD. [ to implement iSCSI in the kernel ] I'm unsure which side you wish to be on. There's accept filters that you can write, but I doubt that's what you want to do. This would be good if you are implementing an iSCSI target on FreeBSD, maybe (then again, maybe not). If you want to be an iSCSI initiator (I think that's the right term), then you'll need to do things similar to what sys/nfsclient/nfs_socket.c does. I could do a quick code walkthrough, but you'd likely be better off studying the nfs code since it will give you a better understanding than I can in a few lines. In addition, because locking has changed over time, the exact version matters. Careful study will show differences in what locks are needed, if any. But in a nutshell, you call socreate to get a socket. You setup the various fields in the socket data structures. You call sosetopt to do the latter. sobind will set this host's endpoint, and soconnect will connect the socket to the remote side. You'll need to setup send and receive buffers and manage them with soreceive and sosend. there's some callbacks that also need to be established as well. And some socket layer locking that may be exposed to your code because there are so few in-kernel protocol implementations that aren't peers to TCP, UDP or IP. I hope this helps.
