XGL/Beryl/Compiz with Xorg 7.2
Has anyone tried installing and using any of the above after 7.2 was committed? I tried all weekend and just get poor results. In XFCE and Gnome performance is unusably slow. I have a dual-core cpu with 1GB of memory and a 256MB NVidia video card. It certainly shouldn't be slow because of hardware. I just can't find much documentation because the 7.2 port is so new.

It is possible for there to be more than one account that is root. Just make it have UID 0 and GID 0. Use vipw to do that. It is common to make an R id as root for a person. - Say the regular id is joe then you might make an Rjoe account with UID and GID of 0. But that may not be the best way.

Java on the BSD Desktop?
I am wanting to write a gui frontend to pkg_cutleaves. I see that it is just a simple perl script so, it would be quite simple to just put a gtk frontend on it and call it a day. However, I am starting to write a good amount of code in java and was wondering what others think about java as the de-facto gui standard on the BSD desktop. Python started me on a path of cross platform coding and I found that java also makes this task quite simple. Along with it's nice feature set and significant speed improvements since 1.5 I am starting to see it as a great language for most everything. Is it just me or does BSD and java make sense? Basically, before I get started writing a program that I hope is used by more than me does it make more sense to write this program and future programs in java or gtk/python/perl/c/whatever? -Tom ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Not /dev. That must be part of / and not its own file system. If /var is its own partition/file system, then you might want to back it up.It can possibly contain databases and such and thus be valuable. But, that is for you to determine the need. Some people leave /var as part of / or put it in another filesystem with a symbolic link. In that case you wouldn't back up /var separately. Of course, then it would not show up in 'df' output either. > I'm willing to lose the log files in /var/log if it comes to it, and > I don't have local mail delivery or much important that would be in > out-going mail queues. Well, check for stuff in /var/db and /var/share and make sure there is nothing worth keeping. Then, it's up to you. You might have to recreate some files with touch to make logs and other things work if you loose things and have to rebuild. > I also feel that I should have put /usr/ports/distfiles on another > file system, since I don't particularly care to back up those > either.

I generally make a large /home or sometimes /work file system and put things that might change size more than planned including user home directories, /var/log, all of /usr/ports and some other things in it and make symbolic links.

Hi Erik,
please reply to all, including the list, so others can help as well.
hardware gets probed automatically..i can't imagine what would work with 4.7
and not with the 6 series (it's usually the other way around for me).
I would take note of what is the name of the HD in 4.7 (ad0 , i imagine) and
then let 6. know..
btw, have you read the handbook ? it's the best place to start if you are a
newbie. You can find it in freebsd.org

Watching those that are "usable" under Unix/Linux (LinuxPrinting.org) and that they are expensive, I see what the printer 2605 of HP it works perfectly unless for some "small" problem. Someone has installed it and it knows to me to say if effectively it is therefore..

I just checked /etc/group and my username is NOT in the wheel group. I'm not in front the system right now to reboot it into single user mode and change /etc/group, but hopefully when I do, it will solve the problem. It's weird though, because I've been using this box fine for the past two months. I was able to su to root during that time. It's very strange that my username's group was changed automatically out of the wheel group. Thank you for your help! Hm, this is odd. /etc/group contains: wheel:*:0:root,steve (My username is "steve") I rebooted (SecureLevel is still disabled) and logged in as "steve." Then I tried to run "su - root" and I got the same error: $ su - root su: not running setuid But it's weird, because in the permissions for "su" it does have the suid flag: $ ls -l /usr/bin/ |grep su -r-sr-xr-x 1 root wheel 12240 May 13 13:15 su Also, when I dropped to single-user mode, I edited my /etc/login.access and enabled root login on the console. But now I when I try to login as root, I get the error: login: pam_acct_mgmt(): authentication error I definitely remember what root's password is. I even changed root's password in single-user mode, and it still doesn't let me login. I don't think the box is compromised; this isn't a production server at all, only a home HTTP/FTP server for personal use. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Computer hangs on reboot
Hi,
I posted this question originally to freebsd-acpi list but without
much luck. Besides I'm not sure it's ACPI problem.
I have a computer with SIS630E-based PCChips motherboard (M787CL+) and
FreeBSD 6.2 (lately I upgraded to RELENG_6, but it didn't help). The
problem is that when I try to reboot it just hangs. The last line I
see on the screen is "Rebooting...", then some vertical lines move
across the screen (maybe video mode switch or something like that),
and that's it.
I tried to add some debug output to cpu_reset_real() code:
printf("cpu_reset_real(): before keyboard reset\n");
outb(IO_KBD + 4, 0xFE);
printf("cpu_reset_real(): after keyboard reset\n");
Then the last two lines I see on the screen when I try to reboot are:
cpu_reset_real(): before keyboard reset
c
Also I tried to set BROKEN_KEYBOARD_RESET option but nothing changed
(except I didn't see these debugging messages, obviously).
The dmesg is at http://mysite.verizon.net/mr_hyro/acpi/dmesg.txt
Booting with ACPI disabled doesn't help, neither does setting
hw.acpi.disable_on_reboot and hw.acpi.handle_reboot to 1 (either one
or both).
Does anybody know how to fix this?
Thank you,
Andrey

Re: machine will no longer boot
Hello, Try booting from a FreeBSD Install CD, load the needed modules before booting the kernel, start the sysinstall. From sysinstall in the Install CD, start a "Fixit" shell. From the shell set the partitions booteable and write changes. Do not resize or apply newfs to the partitions, just set booteable and write the partition info. Mount your / slice, and install the BTX loader into the MBR using: boot0cfg -vB -b /boot/boot0 /dev/TheDiskDevice That works for me on my SATA disks.

machine will no longer boot
Hi list, Yesterday I installed a new sata disk into my server, which is connected to a highpoint rocket raid card. I plugged in only one disk, so no raid yet. I ran sysinstall and then fdisk and disklabel. All was fine and I placed files onto the disk. Then I realized I had made a mistake, I had made only one partition with fdisk, and two slices with disklabel. (Mountpoints pointing to /mnt/x and /mnt/y.) Somehow I got another mountpoint automatically which mounted the entire disk as one, to /media/z. Weird. So I ran sysinstall again and used fdisk to erase everything and create two partitions. I wrote these changes successfully to the disk. I then started disklabel (still from within sysinstall) and created the two mount points for the two partitions again. I tried to write these changes to the disk, but that failed. Mmm, weird. So, perhaps I needed to reboot first? Which I did, and now I cannot boot anymore. The error messages that show on screen are something like this: Can't stat /dev/ad4sd1 No such file or directory Can't stat /dev/ad4se1 No such file or directory After that I get a bogus shell which can do virtually nothing. I have no idea what it is. I can cat /etc/fstab though and noticed that the two lines with mountpoints for the new disk are indeed the new lines. I guess disklabel was partially succesfull? Perhaps I should simply remove these lines in /etc/fstab? Unfortunately, with this ridiculous shell, I don't know how to. So I tried a livecd (Knoppix 5.1). Since the system disk was formatted as ufstype=5xbsd, I have trouble writing to it. Bummer. But... should I remove these lines in /etc/fstab? Will this matter? Luckily I can read the disk, so if necessary I can start over, but I hope there is something I can do from within that odd shell. Please advise, this particular problem is not fun.

So if you do 'chflags nodump /usr/ports/distfiles', dump will skip that directory (unless you're doing a level 0 dump, in which case you'll need the '-h 0' option). BSD tar will skip files and directories flagged with nodump if you give it the --nodump option.

Is there some > command I can use to remind me of how I sliced that partition? I am guessing that you have your terminology scrambled, so lets straighten that first. The primary divisions that FreeBSD recognizes and fdisk handles are slices. there can be up to 4 slices (named 1-4) on a disk. MS- calls these primary partitions. Within each slice, FreeBSD can create partitions named a-h, with 'c' reserved to give information about the whole slice. The bsdlabel(8) utility takes care of this. Just type bsdlabel adNsX replacing the 'N' and 'X' with appropriate drive and slice identifiers eg first drive and first slice would be: bsdlabel ad0s1 If you are dual-booted and FreeBSD is second (a common occurance then it might be 'bsdlabel ad0s2' Note you do not back up the swap partition which is normally 'b' and don't do anything to the 'c' partition which is there only to describe the slice to the system and is not a true partition. You can probably skip backing up your /tmp also. > > The best (and a poor approximation it is) I can come up with is to > use df to tell me the sizes of my non-swap slices. There must be a > simple way to do this. Anyway, using 'df -k' or maybe 'df -m' is a good way to deal with planning backups because in almost all cases you will only back up partitions that you have mounted. After all, they are the only ones you are actively using and housing data to back up. In addition, when you do a backup, the relevant size is the amount used, or possibly the usable capacity as given by df rather than the size as divided. jerry > > -j > > -- > Jeffrey Goldberghttp://www.goldmark.org/jeff/ > > ___ > freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

It should be possible. All the data that is needed is there. But I do think it will be definitely non-trivial. For one thing, you'll have to block all other changes from userland to the target filesystem while restoring the snapshot. And you'll have to update other snapshots as well. Seems like a big can of worms to me. > I guess contacting Marshall McKusick might be the quickest way to find > out whether there's sufficient metadata available to do that; he'd know > off the top of his head, I'm sure.

We were having exactly this discussion over on [EMAIL PROTECTED] just now. Actually, for a fresh install on a system without any X ports already installed, you're better off doing this: mkdir /usr/X11R6 sh /usr/ports/Tools/scripts/mergebase.sh and then carry on installing everything. Or you can do the following by hand (which just duplicates the effect mergebase.sh ultimately has): cd /usr ln -sf local X11R6 cd /etc echo local_startup="/usr/local/etc/rc.d" >> rc.conf echo local_periodic="/usr/local/etc/periodic" >> periodic.conf sed -i.save -e '/X11R6/s/^/#/' manpath.config Cheers, Matthew - -- Dr Matthew J Seaman MA, D.Phil. 7 Priory Courtyard Flat 3 PGP: http://www.infracaninophile.co.uk/pgpkey Ramsgate Kent, CT11 9PW -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v2.0.3 (FreeBSD) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFGWq2I8Mjk52CukIwRCLMoAJ4iCk3Evc4xP+lZ3JcZZNkza0L80gCeLzSN CWT86BnryY6BeEno22PiV3g= =MpX0 -END PGP SIGNATURE- ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

amvisd-new set up difficulty
Hi ,
this is Dhanesh , by the way of finding a solution for spam controll I
come across one tutorial Postfix and SpamAssassin By
Grzegorz , So I followed the foresaid tutorial ..
URL :http://ezine.daemonnews.org/200309/postfix-spamassassin.html.
Hope some of you may be the right one to help me to controll spams in my
mail system.If not please introduce me to some experts who knows this
configuration so I can touch with them.
{
These all are I configured in a test machine (FreeBSD 6.0, POSTFIX running
fine in this test machine ..I can send test mails between local users in
this test machine So if this setup is good then I can install amavis-new
in my server and can controll spams effectively) So I want to check whether
this configuration is correct ya not , for that please give some inputs(
imean spam i/ps and how I know this is blocking spams ..
and I want to ask you what I have to add more for the three line in
amavisd.conf
HERE I AM ATTCHING THE amvisd.conf file
read_hash(\%whitelist_sender, '/var/amavis/whitelist');
read_hash(\%blacklist_sender, '/var/amavis/blacklist');
read_hash(\%spam_lovers, '/var/amavis/spam_lovers');
}
I had a FreeBSD-6.0 box with postfix and mailman working fine .The problem
is that my mailing list members including
me getting lots of spams daily ..so I really got in trouble .
From the tutorial I uderstood that by installing amavisd-new will
solve the problem so I went ahead with this ..
SpamAssain &razor also coming with this amavisd-new (they are
integrated with is package ).
So a box with freeebsd6.0 ,with postfix clamav etc installed in it ..
(I have installed clamav before following the tutorial through
usr/ports in FreeBSD box) SO I thought this AntiVirus clamav may be
sufficent for using with amavisd-new
and after this I followed the turorial for postfix and spamassassin
step by step upto section IV
Section IV - Notifications/DSN, BOUNCE/REJECT/DROP/PASS
destiny,
quarantine. You may want to set these variables:
$notify_sender_templ
$notify_virus_sender_templ
$notify_virus_admin_templ
$notify_virus_recips_templ
$notify_spam_sender_templ
$notify_spam_admin_templ
What valuses to set for this variables ,there is no such variables in
the amavisd.conf file so I added this in the file and confused of
giving what values to this variables ? so I commented these 6 variables
and follwed the tutorial upto
section V
read_hash(\%whitelist_sender, '/var/amavis/whitelist');
read_hash(\%blacklist_sender, '/var/amavis/blacklist');
read_hash(\%spam_lovers, '/var/amavis/spam_lovers');
these three lines I just added in amavisd.conf ( I dont know whether
to add any thing else so I added the following lines from the tutorial
to the amvisd.conf file
map { $whitelist_sender{lc($_)}=1 } (qw(
freebsd-questions@freebsd.org
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
));
and I went to section vii
added these 2 line
$sa_local_tests_only = 0;
$sa_auto_whitelist = 1;
and clamav I installed through ports so I commented all the lines
except the ones related to clamav section.
then have done
# su - vscan
$ touch blacklist whitelist spam_lovers
$ mkdir tmp
but tmp dir is already here so its not needed to create it
explicitly..
then followd spamassassin local.cf configuration as in the tutorial exactly
..
But ther is no .spamassassin dir in /var/amavis so i created this
.spamassassin dir here and then given the command below .
$ touch
/var/amavis/.spamassassin/user_prefs
Then razor and Bayesian learning configured as in the tutorial
then executed the command
/usr/local/sbin/amavisd debug
But the debug output I dont know if it
correct ya not so I am adding
the debug output here
Please let me know all my configurations correct ya not ?
and in /usr/ports/security/amavisd-new/work ther is no work directory
and sample spam files , so let me give some sample spam code so I ca
test it ..
NB: can you send a sample copy of amavisd.conf , spamassassin local.cf
, If my configuration is not looking proper one in your view .

I share Roland's concern about the reliability of any new code designed to accomplish the 'full rollback' desired, but of course anything would have to undergo incredibly rigorous testing before it would be allowed anywhere near even -CURRENT I'm sure, same as softupdates/snapshots has. That said, I think it is worthwhile finding out whether this is even possible with the amount of data and metadata saved in snapshots to accomplish their existing utility (which I still find pretty awesome, and despite re-reading that section again several times, mysterious ..) > > > This way he would restore the snapshot and lose it at the same > > > time, but the operation should be O(1) in theory (time and space), as > > > opposed to O(n) which any normal back-up/restore is. > > > > You don't lose the snapshot untill you delete it.

I guess contacting Marshall McKusick might be the quickest way to find out whether there's sufficient metadata available to do that; he'd know off the top of his head, I'm sure. So should several other people, I guess, but more likely those frequenting -fs, -hackers, maybe -arch? > This is why I said that you lose the snapshot itself, because it's not > there when it was taken, and you lose the references to all the > changed blocks of the live file system.

wall-clock time profiling
Hi all.
What is the right way to measure wall-clock time in profiling on FreeBSD?
Standard profiling method in UNIX like 'gprof' measures CPU time, but
it doesn't always offer a good indication for tuning if application is
not CPU bound.
For example, the below simple program spend most of the time for disk
I/O, but gprof doesn't tell me that fsync(2) in output() is the
hot-spot which should be removed at first.
#include
#include
#include
#include
char calc()
{
int i;
char c;
for (i = 0; i < 1; i++) {
c = c * i;
}
return c;
}
void output(int fd, char c)
{
write(fd, &c, 1);
fsync(fd); /* XXX time consuming system call */
}
int main()
{
int fd;
int i;
char c;
fd = open("testfile", O_CREAT | O_WRONLY);
for (i = 0; i < 1; i++) {
c = calc(i);
output(fd, c);
}
return 0;
}
gprof's output:
% cumulative self self total
time seconds secondscalls ms/call ms/call name
84.2 0.56 0.561 0.06 0.06 calc [3]
13.6 0.65 0.091 0.01 0.01 _fsync [5]
1.4 0.66 0.011 0.00 0.00 write [6]
0.7 0.66 0.00 .mcount (12)
0.2 0.66 0.001 0.00 0.01 output [4]
Measuring CPU time has been proper for traditional UNIX as TSS, but I
think wall-clock time is also useful in these days. It is affected by
system load, but it is easy to arrange some dedicated system for
profiling purpose.
Wall-clock time profiling itself could be implemented by simple kernel
hack (i386/i386/trap.c:syscall() and kern/subr_trap.c:userret()), but
if both CPU and wall-clock time profiling are available, I don't know
how users should change the method. sysctl(8) may be inappropriate.
Although I'm not familiar with another analysis tools, like DTrace for
FreeBSD, is there something help for me?
Thanks.
