Since you won't be using the nvidia driver, you don't need compat_5x enabled. I didn't need to enable any options in the Screen section with my i845, but I did need options composite and RENDER enabled in the Extensions section. I know this thread is a little dated, but this is the link I used as a reference while trying to get beryl working with kde on my laptop... I'm running KDE 3.5.7 on xorg 7.2 on FreeBSD 6.2-Stable. dmesg yields: drm0: ATI Radeon LW RV200 Mobility 7500 M7 port 0x3000-0x30ff mem 0x4800-0x4fff,0x4030-0x4030 irq 11 at device 0.0 on pci1 info: [drm] AGP at 0x6000 256MB info: [drm] Initialized radeon 1.25.0 20060524 The only difference is that I'm trying to get it to work with the KDE desktop rather than the Gnome desktop. I've followed the steps in the link. When I try to load Beryl however, I get a light-grey screen. I can rotate the cube, but it's all grey (except for the gems at the top and bottom). I'm perplexed, but I don't think it's a problem with Beryl (because of the rotation and the gems displaying at top and bottom of the cube)... Is there a trick to get beryl to work with KDE on FreeBSD? Thanks, Mike You should post this question on PC-BSD forums since PC-BSD 1.4 uses Beryl as a default window manager on the KDE desktop. Installing PC-BSD would be also the quickest and easiest way to get fully functional KDE with Beryl as a window manager.

Re: Problem with Gnome2 Installation
[EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi, I just installed FreeBSD6.2 onto my home computer. I chose the 'minimum installation' option. I then installed the ports tree by 'portsnap fetch', followed by 'portsnap extract', and then 'portsnap fetch upgrade'. Then I successfully installed Xorg via the ports tree. I then configured and tested X11. So far, all went very well. Next, I wanted to install the Gnome Desktop Environment, so 'cd /usr/ports/x11/gnome2' followed by 'make install clean'. The installation went well for over two hours, and then it stopped with the message that I have included from the script file below. I have a few questions: 1. How can I continue, and complete, the installation of Gnome? 2. What, besides general Googling and checking the FreeBSD archives, can I do when the installation generates an error message like the one below that is merely descriptive and not prescriptive? (I'd like to not have to come running to this forum every time an installation doesn't succeed. I realize that a learning curve is involved, but I'm willing to do a bit of research if I can find the right resources. I did look at /usr/ports/UPDATING but didn't find anything that looked relevant.) 3. In the past (5.4), I have used 'portupgrade' to maintain my ports tree. I understand that 'portsnap' is a new utility that is supposed to be easier to use and more reliable. So does this mean that I can do all of my ports tree maintenance with 'portsnap' and never use 'portupgrade' again? Any advice, suggestions, or comments would be appreciated!

I can type the string % cafe with the final e being hex-e9 and I get zsh: command not found: \M-i which makes sense. It would be nice to see the cafe echoed with the aigu over the e, but whatever.

At the same time symbolic links are made from the files in this new directery to a directery called 'latest'. ..and for each subscription there is a directory with same name as the subscription. In this directery GoldenPod also will make a symbolic link to the date directory files which belongs to this subscription. GoldenPod has some kind of graphic configuration, but I have never used it.

Server rebooting itself
I have a 6.1 machine (AMD X2-5200) that reboots itself from time to time for no apparent reason. Today, I caught it in a reboot and on the console it said it was shutting down the CPU's, like someone had hit control-alt-delete on it (the same message)... But there is no keyboard attached to it, and nobody was logged in. This happens randomly every 3-20 days (no apparent pattern). I originally thought it was the 3ware controller causing it, but there was no correlation. I tried installing 'mbmon' port, but when I run mbmon -d I get: mbmon -d InitMBInfo: Operation not permitted This program needs setuid root!! The SUID flag is set, and I'm running it from root. I am wondering if there is a possible power supply issue, or something like that. I swapped the PS some time ago for a bigger one, but that didn't change anything. If anyone has any suggestions on how to get mbmon to work I'd love to hear them. The MB is GIGABYTE GA-M61P-S3 GF6100 AM2, which uses the nforce4 chipset. I'm not even sure if mbmon works with that newer chipset or not. I'm suspecting power problems further upstream (at the data center) but I have no way of knowing. There doesn't seem to be any coorelation with usage either, so I'm kind of stumped.

Script to list ports knobs and options
Hi list, First forgive me if this is not the ideal list for this thread, and please redirect me to the good one. After this discussion[1] I did spend some time in order to improve the script provided by Maxim Khitrov, and here is the result : - show all knobs supported by ports not yet installed, with an asterisk if the knob is enabled in ports.conf (make.conf is not supported now) - show all options supported by ports not yet installed, with an asterisk if the option is enabled in /var/db/ports/$portname/options - full color listing (only if CLICOLOR is defined and the output is not redirected) The goal is to tweak knobs (and options) before running make config-recursive or make install. Work for me on 6-STABLE and tested with xorg, gnome2 and some lighter ports. The files are available with a screenshot at this URI[2], of course portconf is required. I am aware of only one caveat : due to heuristics used to display options, they may appear twice (this is why I used two colors to display options). There are probably other problems, so don't hesitate to point mistakes or inefficiencies. I wonder if it could be integrated to the ports tree when finished, what's your opinion on this ?

lost DNS queries
Hi list,
I'm trying to resolve a strange problem on my DNS resolver system for some
time now, and still have no clue where to catch the reason. Perhaps
someone here has some hints for me...
The prerequisites:
DNS Server with FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE-p4 running bind as resolver (hardware
sufficient, e.g. dual Xeon 3.0 GHz with 2GB RAM, OS on SCSI RAID1).
DNS client machine connected via HP ProCurve switch and in the same VLAN
as the DNS server machine.
Test software: dnsperf
Command executed: dnsperf -d /tmp/input-1.txt -s ${DNSSERVER} -c -A
Result output of the command:
Parse input file: once
Ended due to: reaching end of file
Queries sent: 1 queries
Queries completed:9770 queries
Queries lost: 230 queries
Returned NOERROR:7235 queries
Returned SERVFAIL:107 queries
Returned NXDOMAIN:2428 queries
Avg request size: 41 bytes
Avg response size:184 bytes
Percentage completed: 97.70%
Percentage lost:2.30%
Started at: Tue Aug 28 12:22:51 2007
Finished at: Tue Aug 28 12:25:30 2007
Ran for: 159.355209 seconds
Queries per second: 61.309574 qps
I tweaked several settings on the dns server to reduce the percentage
lost:
sysctl net.inet.icmp.icmplim=1024
sysctl net.inet.raw.recvspace=65536
sysctl net.inet.udp.recvspace=256000
sysctl net.inet.tcp.sendspace=65536
sysctl net.inet.tcp.recvspace=65536
sysctl kern.ipc.somaxconn=512
sysctl kern.ipc.maxsockbuf=8388608
but still i'm not able to find a reason why so much queries are lost and i
don't see any reason for this. It even happens when dnsperf is started
directly on the dns server.
Does anyone has an idea where to search for this problem?
Le deagh dhùraghd,
Frank Altpeter

Re: USB Problem on a HP Compaq DC7600
i have a DC7100, a very similar machine (same southbridge, i believe). none of my USB worked worth a damn until late 6.1. 6.2 has been totally reliable. during 6.1, updating my BIOS upgraded my situation from not worth a damn to hit and miss. broadcom nic also works fine in later versions too. if you require 6.0 (and not so much hardware hassle), you might try a different (not so fancy) computer. -- Jonathan Horne http://dfwlpiki.dfwlp.org [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Good Job Offer!!!
We are Leather/Hides and skin producing company looking for a representative to represent the company. We have sales representatives all over the world to distribute our products.You know, that it's not easy to start a business in a new market (being the US). There are hundreds of competitors, close direct contacts between suppliers and customers and other difficulties, which impede our sales promotion.We have decided to deliver the products upfront, it's very risky but it should push up sales on 25 percent.Thus we need to get payments for our products as soon as it possible. Unfortunately we are unable to open Bank Accounts in the United US without first registering the company name. Presently with the amount of Orders we have, we cannot put them on hold. For fear of loosing the customers out rightly. Secondly we cannot cash these payments from the US soon enough, as international Checks take about 14 working days for cash to be made available.We lose about 100,000 USD of net income each month because we have money transfer delays. Your task as a representative of the company is to coordinate payments from customers and help us with the payment process.You are not involved in any sales. Once orders are received and sorted we deliver the product to a customer (usually through FEDEX).The customer receives and checks the products. After this has been done the customer has to pay for the products. About 90 percent of our customers prefer to pay through Certified Checks and Money orders drawn from the United States based on the amount involved. We have decided to open this new job position for solving this problem. Your tasks are; 1. Receive payment from Customers 2. Cash Payment at your Bank or any cashing facilities near you. 3. Deduct 10 % which will be your percentage/pay on Payment processed 4. Forward balance after deduction of percentage/pay to any of the offices you will be contacted to send payment to, This is done either through western union money transfer or moneygram.This job takes only 3-7 hours per week. You'll have a lot of free time doing another job, you'll get good income and regular job.But this job is very challenging and you should understand it. We are looking only for the worker who satisfies our requirements and will be an earnest assistant. We are glad to offer this job position to you.

home lan with freebsd as gateway / security issues
Dear all, Please bear with me one more time. In two months I will need to set up a home network and I was planning to use a spare freebsd box as a gateway, proxy (squid) and content filtering (dansguardian). I am basically ready but the more I think about it, the more worried I am. That is - for content filtering to work without bypassing it, I will need to put the machine in front of my wireless router, won't I? I am going to do some reading on tightening FreeBSD security and closing ports/services I do not need. My question is more general, though, I would simply like to know if there's any simple way to put the box behind a router and sitll be able to do transparent proxying of requests originating from my LAN? What I really need is content filtering so that my kids won't accidentaly go to bad sites. I am not really an administrator so my knowledge is limited but I love this (FreeBSD) system and want to continue using it and learning the ropes. What would you advise a person like me?

Yes: generally spoken: a gateway/proxy is what you tell your client machines to use as a gateway/proxy. You can just set it anywhere in your network and make it suck its data from your router. Transparent proxying might be a bit difficult to set up at times but you can start with an ordinary cache-proxy (called by requests on port 8080 or something). As long as your kids don't have admin rights on their workstations, they won't be able to change it. By the way: blocking single addresses or even some expressions won't keep anyone from watching bad pages - all one needs is google and some patience. But of course you can use squid's log files to control what your kids really did. So - sorry for adding educational hints - talk to your children first and explain the meaning of the word trust to them. When they really believe they have to deceive you, they probably will be able to live without a computer for some time. Sorry, this really was off topic. Regards, Uli.

Server rebooting itself
I have a 6.1 machine (AMD X2-5200) that reboots itself from time to time for no apparent reason. Today, I caught it in a reboot and on the console it said it was shutting down the CPU's, like someone had hit control-alt-delete on it (the same message)... But there is no keyboard attached to it, and nobody was logged in. This happens randomly every 3-20 days (no apparent pattern). I originally thought it was the 3ware controller causing it, but there was no correlation. I tried installing 'mbmon' port, but when I run mbmon -d I get: mbmon -d InitMBInfo: Operation not permitted This program needs setuid root!! The SUID flag is set, and I'm running it from root. I am wondering if there is a possible power supply issue, or something like that. I swapped the PS some time ago for a bigger one, but that didn't change anything. If anyone has any suggestions on how to get mbmon to work I'd love to hear them. The MB is GIGABYTE GA-M61P-S3 GF6100 AM2, which uses the nforce4 chipset. I'm not even sure if mbmon works with that newer chipset or not. I'm suspecting power problems further upstream (at the data center) but I have no way of knowing. There doesn't seem to be any coorelation with usage either, so I'm kind of stumped. Any suggestions on what to check next? ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: home lan with freebsd as gateway / security issues

My question is more general, though, I would simply like to know if there's any simple way to put the box behind a router and sitll be able to do transparent proxying of requests originating from my LAN? Yes: generally spoken: a gateway/proxy is what you tell your client machines to use as a gateway/proxy. You can just set it anywhere in your network and make it suck its data from your router. Transparent proxying might be a bit difficult to set up at times but you can start with an ordinary cache-proxy (called by requests on port 8080 or something). As long as your kids don't have admin rights on their workstations, they won't be able to change it. By the way: blocking single addresses or even some expressions won't keep anyone from watching bad pages - all one needs is google and some patience. I use dansguardian it is much more than a simple page block. DG is a very useful tool. So - sorry for adding educational hints - talk to your children first and explain the meaning of the word trust to them. When they really believe they have to deceive you, they probably will be able to live without a computer for some time. Absolutely - that's what I do.

Re: firefox plugins
I'm unable to find any reference to amd64 on Firefox FAQ and other info sources. I have an EVGA mobo with an AMD64 running FreeBSD 6.2 perfectly, with Firefox. But every attempt at a plugin complains either that it isn't windows or that it's an amd64. I really want to run Flash material. Any ideas? Adobe only distributes linux binaries, so you need linux-compatibility. On i386 the idea is to install /usr/ports/www/linuxpluginwrapper but that doesn't work with amd64 yet. Some people on this list claimed to be able to run /usr/ports/www/linux-flashplugin9 in linux-opera or linux-firefox with linux_base-fc6, but the latter will only be available with upcoming FreeBSD 7.0 branch. So for FreeBSD 6.2 now only /usr/ports/swfdec-plugin or /usr/ports/graphics/gnash remain. Both are OpenSource projects and can display something like flash 4 files or just crash your browser. You might want to check the home page for swfdec; version 0.5.2 has been released, and according to the info on the page it should work in most cases. Currently, we have 0.5.0 in the ports tree; most banners will work, but other stuff won't. If your question is limited to YouTube videos, you might use youtube_dl - it's in the ports.

Re: Wireless Network Not Found
Did you check on the hardware compatibility list if the wi chipset is supported and with what driver? Did you check on the laptop compatibility list what was report on your laptop. If the device can work people probably left documentation how was done. It is very possible that particular WI device is not supported. In that case you can do 3 thing. 1. You can ndis windows driver and insert into the kernel so that you can use the device 2. You can get pccard which is supported and forget about that device 3. Check if it supported in 7.0 (which has better support for WI) and install that one. Take care Predrag Thomas D.

routed corrupting arp table with multiple ip aliases ?
Hi all, I stumbled on this while trying to track down an mbuf leak on a new server. It seems that routed corrupts the arp table on FreeBSD 6.2 when there are more than one ip alias on an interface. The behaviour differs depending on whether routed is enable in rc.d or manually started after boot. How to repeat: configure multiple aliases on an interface if routed is not enabled in rc.d ping all aliases arp -a shows that each alias has the nics mac eg lnat.ips.gov.au (192.168.1.100) at 00:30:1b:ba:bb:01 on bge0 [permanent] knat.ips.gov.au (192.168.1.101) at 00:30:1b:ba:bb:01 on bge0 [permanent] run routed and wait a few seconds run arp -a again, the mac address for all aliases (except the last) will have changed to a 0 or 128 hex numbers seperated by :'s eg lnat.ips.gov.au (192.168.1.100) at 0 [permanent] knat.ips.gov.au (192.168.1.101) at 00:30:1b:ba:bb:01 on bge0 [permanent] All aliases are still pingable A netstat -r shows something like the following for the aliases 192.168.1.100 192.168.1.100 UHLW1 30 lo0 = 192.168.1.100/32 link#1 UC 0 0 bge0 192.168.1.101 00:30:1b:ba:bb:01 UHLW 1 16 lo0 = 192.168.1.101/32 link#1 UC 0 0 bge0 If routed is enabled in rc.d and the system rebooted only the last alias shows with arp -a . A netstat -r shows something like the following for the aliases 192.168.1.100 192.168.1.100 UH 1 30 bge0 = 192.168.1.100/32 link#1 UC 0 0 bge0 192.168.1.101 00:30:1b:ba:bb:01 UHLW 1 16 lo0 = 192.168.1.101/32 link#1 UC 0 0 bge0 Only the primary ip and the last alias are pingable.

Re: Server rebooting itself
Quoting Don O'Neil: I have a 6.1 machine (AMD X2-5200) that reboots itself from time to time for no apparent reason. Today, I caught it in a reboot and on the console it said it was shutting down the CPU's, like someone had hit control-alt-delete on it (the same message)... But there is no keyboard attached to it, and nobody was logged in. This happens randomly every 3-20 days (no apparent pattern). I originally thought it was the 3ware controller causing it, but there was no correlation. I tried installing 'mbmon' port, but when I run mbmon -d I get: mbmon -d InitMBInfo: Operation not permitted This program needs setuid root!! The SUID flag is set, and I'm running it from root. I am wondering if there is a possible power supply issue, or something like that. I swapped the PS some time ago for a bigger one, but that didn't change anything. If anyone has any suggestions on how to get mbmon to work I'd love to hear them. The MB is GIGABYTE GA-M61P-S3 GF6100 AM2, which uses the nforce4 chipset. I'm not even sure if mbmon works with that newer chipset or not. I'm suspecting power problems further upstream (at the data center) but I have no way of knowing. There doesn't seem to be any coorelation with usage either, so I'm kind of stumped. Any suggestions on what to check next? I have similar issues. I even went as far as replacing the motherboard. At first, I thought I had bad RAM -- but even with known-good RAM, I still have random reboots. As with your situation, there are no apparent patterns. Regarding mbmon, I had to compile it without SMB4 support to get it to work.

Re: Server rebooting itself
Im on 6.2R and I have the same problem, Server rebooting it self As with your situation, there are no apparent patterns. I changed the power supply (It was already new) I added fans, I changed RAMS, but always same issues, server rebooting with no known issues!! the problem that..its SERVER. and its acting as gateway, around 80 users, has to disconnect every 2-4 weeks. Marwan Sultan. Quoting Don O'Neil: I have a 6.1 machine (AMD X2-5200) that reboots itself from time to time for no apparent reason. Today, I caught it in a reboot and on the console it said it was shutting down the CPU's, like someone had hit control-alt-delete on it (the same message)... But there is no keyboard attached to it, and nobody was logged in. This happens randomly every 3-20 days (no apparent pattern). I originally thought it was the 3ware controller causing it, but there was no correlation. I tried installing 'mbmon' port, but when I run mbmon -d I get: mbmon -d InitMBInfo: Operation not permitted This program needs setuid root!! The SUID flag is set, and I'm running it from root. I am wondering if there is a possible power supply issue, or something like that. I swapped the PS some time ago for a bigger one, but that didn't change anything. If anyone has any suggestions on how to get mbmon to work I'd love to hear them. The MB is GIGABYTE GA-M61P-S3 GF6100 AM2, which uses the nforce4 chipset. I'm not even sure if mbmon works with that newer chipset or not. I'm suspecting power problems further upstream (at the data center) but I have no way of knowing. There doesn't seem to be any coorelation with usage either, so I'm kind of stumped. Any suggestions on what to check next? I have similar issues. I even went as far as replacing the motherboard. At first, I thought I had bad RAM -- but even with known-good RAM, I still have random reboots. As with your situation, there are no apparent patterns. Regarding mbmon, I had to compile it without SMB4 support to get it to work. My MB is an Intel D845PESV (desktop board). -- Glen Barber ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] _ FREE pop-up blocking with the new MSN Toolbar - get it now! http://toolbar.msn.click-url.com/go/onm00200415ave/direct/01/ ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

It would be nice to see the cafe echoed with the aigu over the e, but whatever. On both the Gnome Terminal and the KDE Konsole, zip, nada, nothing. I've tried Setttings for the Konsole terms. No joy. I don't know where to mouse and click for Gnome. Oh,and most of the time in vi no Latin1 chars. Gary, If you run % xterm -lc iso-8859-1 you will get what you want, i.e. ISO-8859-1 terminal in UTF-8 environment and Alt+I will produce é. Please read xterm man page for more explanation on -lc and -en. See also luit(1). If you really want to change the locale of Gnome/KDE/Xfce from default UTF-8 to ISO-8859-1 (not recommended), then you should appropriately set LANG and LC_ALL variables in ~/.xinitrc.

I am wondering if there is a possible power supply issue, or something like that. ODD STORY... We used to buy servers custom built for us. One of my requirements was it had to be put on the net for me to check remotely. SOMEHOW I got the idea to compile perl to put the machine through its paces. (Don't remember how/why/etc). Once machine I was doing it on and all of a sudden the compile fails. WEIRD. So I try a few more times.. Dies in the same place every time. SHRUG. The integrator swaps this, that, the other things, to the point only 2 things weren't swapped. Case and power supply. Swaps the power supply, thing builds fine. Next machine, it starts failing again. I asked if he used the power supply from last time and he told me YES. I offered to BUY the power supply and throw it in the garbage. SO, long story short (TOO LATE), WEIRD WEIRD STUFF can happen with a seemingly good power supply.

It's not normal in FreeBSD. Library versions are only changed when there is an incompatible change that means the new library *CANNOT* be used with certain old binaries. While you may be able to sometimes get away with running certain applications (or certain parts of applications) that do not interact with the incompatible changes, it is never a safe thing to do.
