When i run sudo rpm -i --ignoreos --dbpath /lib/var/rpm --root /compat/linux vmware-server..rpm i get this: /bin/sh is needed to vmware-server..rpm, but there`s /bin/sh and /compat/linux/bin/sh.

This does not set it to the Canadian French; nor can I find anything that does... only my lame setup works using the French azerty (which is rather a pain because it involves complicated finger moves to get the accented characters - I'm familiar with it and can use it; it's just a pita. > >> Option "XkbOptions" "grp:toggle" > > If you don't need layout switching just delete this. I guess I wasn't clear. Toggling was meant to mean switching back and forth; switching - just once. I would like to use switching but it seems to only work one way. Can't switch back. rtAlt switches from us to the ca (which oddly seems to mean French, but nothing to do with Canadian or French Canadian. Only fluxbox brings it back and then rtAlt no longer works.

I was unable to figure out how to add -DWITH_MFD_REWRITES to make so I ended up editing the Makefile and added --enable-mfd-rewrites (the compile told me --with-mfd-rewrites had been replace by --enable-mfd-rewrites). My error messages now seems to have disappeared so I'm extremely happy. I later found the following info in NEWS: Solaris, FreeBSD, OpenBSD: - Experimental support for 64bit interface counters (ifXTable). Enable via '--with-mib-modules=if-mib --enable-mfd-rewrites'. So I have two questions: 1) Is --with-mib-modules=if-mib already covered in the Makefile? I can see the parameter but it refers to a variable I don't know the contents of. The variable seems to refer to the build option NET_SNMP_MIB_MODULES which is mentioned at the beginning of the compile process but I don't know how to use it or its initial value. 2) Is there anyway to enable these two options during make without editing the Makefile?

Yes, there is, and it even isn't a file system. It's tar. You can easily create a tar archive and transfer it from device to device, maybe using a "transfer hard disk". I know this sounds stupid, but it works. The disk just needs to be formatted, it can be a hard disk, an optical disc, even an USB thumb drive, or a floppy disk. Doesn't matter. Just format it. Then: % tar cvf /dev/ on the source OS. On the target OS, simply run this command: % tar xvf /dev/ I could employ this method successfully to transfer data between different UNIXens and Linusi. :-) -- Polytropon >From Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ... ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

Ok, static arp works: that is, if I take the carp1 mac address and add it to the arp table using: arp -s 10.0.80.74 00:00:5e:00:01:02 pub The ping starts to work. I'm still a bit confused why I have to do this though, because I can ping the non-shared IP 10.0.80.77 from the VPN client (via tap0) without any static arp, and I can ping the shared VIP (10.0.80.74) from clients on the physical network (em1) as well without any static arp. It's only when the ping it has to cross the bridge that it's an issue. Does it make any difference if you set the IP address on the bridge0 iface and not on the physical one? I recall that the recommended setup is to use IP addresses on the bridge interface and leave the members of the bridge IPless.

You're message initially references an incomplete build of PostgreSQL 8.3.7;
but ends asking about PostgreSQL 8.4. Which are you trying to build?
I would expect version 8.3.* to build normally. PostgreSQL 8.4, however, is
still in beta ("Beta 1" according to their website.)

Also, I think portupgrade has an option where it will list all of the applications that will be affected by an upgrade without actually doing the upgrade (see 'man portupgrade'). Try this: 1. Get a list of applications that would be affected by portupgrading firefox and its dependencies (list A). 2. Then get a list of applications that would be affected by portupgrading gnucash and its dependencies (list B). 3. Your problem may be in a dependency that is on both list A and list B.

Gnucash 2.2.7_2 after upgrade to Firefox 3.0.9
Is anyone else having issues wit Gnucash 2.2.7 crashing when you try to open an account after portupgrading Firefox in response to security audit reports from about a week ago? (that's the only change I can think of that seems to coincide with the change in behavior; and yes, I did look through UPDATING for known issues first...) Gnucash will launch just fine, but when I try to open an account it crashes. Running Gnucash in debug mode only reports that there was a segmentation fault and core was dumped. Looking through the Gnucash FAQ on the Gnucash site, I saw that there was an issue similar to this on Windows, and their recommended fix was to remove ~/.gconf, ~/.gconfd, ~/gnome2, and ~/gnucash. Though these instructions were for windows, I tried moving those files to see if that made a difference, but it didn't. I also tried pkg_deleting gnucash and then portinstalling it again, as well as removing the ~/gnucash directory, or removing all the various .log files and .xac files from the ~/gnucash directory, but I continue to have the same behavior; gnucash will open, but trying to open an account in gnucash (either by clicking the "Open" button or by double clicking the account name) gets gnucash to dump core. I have also downloaded the source tarball for gnucash 2.2.9 from sourceforge, but encounter an issue running ./configure on that, as it is not finding gettext (which I appear to have installed at /usr/local/bin/gettext). Ideas? Thoughts? Suggestions?

If I have insulted you, I guess it was with the command line using grep, I am sorry. I was not my intent to insult you or insinuate that any of you are idiots. I hold nix people in the highest regard. I've been running FreeBSD since 1.1.5 (or something like that, it was in what I believe was the very first FreeBSD book published). But I must admit, I'm still struggling to maintain my systems. For example, I believe that this libdrm dependency that I say cairo has is because cairo has two configurable options, Glitz and XCB. I have both selected. Some ports have config options but I can't find any doc that tells me what other ports might benefit from them. Perhaps no other ports can utilize cairo Glitz OpenGL support? I went to their web site and read their doc, but that doesn't yield FreeBSD specific info. I removed all ports, and /usr/local and /var/db/pkg, as suggested by Manolis. I updated my ports tree and make fetchindex, but many ports are failing and I have to go to their directory and make reinstall, sometimes I also have to make clean. I think this is caused by the fetched INDEX being slightly out of date with the tree. I think this wouldn't happen with portsdb -uU. I've started with no ports and added xorg and portupgrade. I'm now installing gnome2. I checked the installed packages with pkg_info and noticed that cairo is installed and I checked it;s dependencies and libdrm is there again. I believe this is because of Glitz option. -- Steven Friedrich Lexington, KY 40509 ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

I found the failure, in my /var/tmp there where many files mainly
gvfs-{user}-* which I removed then no problem with too many links.
Does any body know why gnome does not seem to clean up the gvfs files after use?

You can add the line
xmessage*font: -*-fixed-*-*-*-*-20-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-*
to the file `~/.Xresources'. (I think that file is read at the start
of the X session, but to be certain you can add
xrdb -merge ${HOME}/.Xresources
to ~/.xinitrc or ~/.xsession, as the case may be. I personally keep
my Xresources elsewhere, and merge them as above.)

UML is a notation that facilitates communications (amongst other things). If UML helps get the message across, there is no reason not to use it.

The port options are stored in /var/db/ports. You can delete the
"options" file for your package from that dir. There's also ways to
force the configuration of files using portupgrade/portmaster. For
portmaster, the command is "portmaster --force-config". I don't know
about portupgrade.

I need to create flow charts for analytical and reporting processes at work. I had played with the UML editor that came with PC-BSD and noticed you could store notes with the objects (very cool). Can/should UML be used for something like this?

Re: X Window - how to get the standard font
herbert langhans wrote: Hi Daemons, a little question: I open a shell and invoke: #xmessage 'hello world' - it opens the window, but a rather tiny font. So I invoke: #xmessage -fn -*-fixed-*-*-*-*-20-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-* 'hello world' - the same appears in the fontsize I like. Now the question: Can I set the bigger font somewhere, so that i.e. xmessage appears always in the preset, bigger font without typing the whole -fn -*-* string in? Somewhere in .xinitrc? Checked the man pages, but its a science to find a solution there. Thanks herb langhans I've seen .Xdefaults files that setup resources for apps such as xcalc and xmessage.

release packages and portupgrade
I installed from the FreeBSD 7.2RC2 DVD. I added packages from the DVD, from the ftp site using pkg_add and the release directory, and by executing: portupgrade -NpPrR [package name] I have not updated the system or ports that were installed from the DVD. When I tried to install digikam (I'm taking another look at KDE stuff), I noticed many warning messages that installed packages were of earlier versions than required. Does portupgrade install only the version of a package indicated by the ports version? Does it look for the latest version at the FreeBSD ftp site?

This setup enables switching from the default us to what appears to be the French keyboard. The fr_CA has the accented characters assigned to normal keys while keeping most of the English keys normal; the French kbd needs two keypresses to get the accents. Tiresome, not so say dumb. 4. The toggle does not toggle; pressing right_Alt switches to fr but another rtAlt press does nothing. And other Alt combinations don't do anything except freeze the kbd and xterm has to be closed and thereafter the fr is not accessible without a reboot or one must use fluxbox menu to switch the keyboard. How to get the fr_CA instad of the fr? 5. Upon closing xorg, there are these messages: Failed to open file (/usr/local/share/fluxbox/nls/fr_CA.utf-8/fluxbox.cat)...

Re: Modern FreeBSD Installer?
hello Well, after all that said, I would like to post my modest oppinion based in experience from the market.. 1) The people who use FreeBSD, or other OS, (the end user) will never install the OS, the person will turn on the machine and expects an graphical interface appears in the secreen. 2) the Interface should be as simple as possible, but powerfull enought to fullfill their needs, that is text, email, browsing, some banking, multimedia (this must be powerfulll...), chatting. some dvd authoriting, P2P. should access WIFI networks easy too 3) the "computer" (computer is the term used by the USER) should NEVER break, stop working That is: the computer (and the Operating system) should act as the TV set... (remember those old times when the TV set used to break???) you turn it on, and it works... 4) For those who install the OS in the computer, (some 1 in 10.000) people should make it fast and dirty I make an installer that install FBSD in 10 minutes with all the gnome, office, multimedia, with only one of the keyboard... using ZFS, the system never breaks, is ready to use in 20 seconds... FBSD is installed in more than 1000 machines running in gas stations... here... 5) A beautifull installer is good for the newspaper that publishes a "review" of the Operating system (they must publish something to "sell" to ...save their job..), Have you ever heard about a "Leopard" installer??? do you know someone who reinstalled "Leopard"?? 6) I also think that there must be an "fast and dirty" FBSD install. in the distribution a CD (or DVD) that you put in the machine, it asks where to install and a prompt choosing YES or NO... the installer formats the disk(partition), do a tar of the FBSD image, with an login of "admin" prompts for a password, and dumps the os image in the disk using journal or ZFS... (90% of the machines I installed FBSD have 1GB of memory, 80GB of HD and HDA sound, INTEL,ATI,VIA graphics board... only 4 brands of NIC). 7) I showed FBSD to an "expert" windows guy, and he think it is far more easy to install than the XP he was using besides, it is LEGAL!!!

If you want help, assuming that people are idiots is not going to get you very far. Especially when most of us can't reproduce what you're seeing. Perhaps you have an older set of ports? If you can figure out where the dependency came from on your system, it would be a start towards other people being able to provide advice.

atacontrol spindown
Hi, With FreeBSD 7.1 I've started using atacontrol spindown for my secondary disks (i.e. disks that are accessed very infrequently). Everything seemed to work nice until I noticed in my "daily security run output" list of kernel messages that suggests that disks get awaken every night at 3 am. Could someone suggest what could trigger my disks to wake up? BTW, I am not running smartd daemon, so that cannot be an issue. Thanks in advance, Alexander. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

Ok, static arp works: that is, if I take the carp1 mac address and add it to the arp table using: arp -s 10.0.80.74 00:00:5e:00:01:02 pub The ping starts to work. I'm still a bit confused why I have to do this though, because I can ping the non-shared IP 10.0.80.77 from the VPN client (via tap0) without any static arp, and I can ping the shared VIP (10.0.80.74) from clients on the physical network (em1) as well without any static arp. It's only when the ping it has to cross the bridge that it's an issue. Regards, Sebastiaan smime.p7s Description: S/MIME Cryptographic Signature
