The most times, the kernel hangs completly so I have to hard reset the machine to get it responding again. About once in every ten crashs it is able to write a dump before rebooting or locking up. I have no knowledge in debugging the kernel (or debugging anything else) so I tried what I found in the handbook.

Currently I'm using a blank make.conf, meaning it is not present (as it is by default on a fresh installed system). [snip] I am using this motherboard with an AMD x4 630 Propus cpu and 4G Ram (2x2GB). I have done a basic overclock to 3.36GHz with the ram running at 1600MHz. This is my KDE4 desktop machine running FreeBSD 8 and all ports currently up to date. When selecting the RAM to put on this motherboard you should have consulted the list from Gigabyte for approved memory and chosen very carefully. The memory I actually have was not an exact line item from the list, but it was something extremely close and which was designed and manufactured for use with an AM3 socket motherboard. You will notice that some RAM today is designed for Intel P55 chipsets and Lynnfield processors while other RAM is designed specifically for AM3/AM2 socket use. It is probably not a good idea to disregard this during selection, e.g. memory not specifically meant for AM3 socket mobos may not function correctly. I also seem to recall seeing somewhere that this motherboard acquires limitations in overclocking when all 4 sockets are filled and the best overclocking results when only 2 sockets are in use. I am only using 2 sockets in a 2x2GB arrangement for 4GB RAM total. If you are not overclocking and have all 4 sockets filled you may not be able to go above 1066MHz memory multiplier. With only 2 sockets populated 1333MHz should be attainable. I believe your problem centers around memory. It may not be designed for AM3 socket and/or may not be able to handle a higher memory multiplier. When I first put this motherboard in I attempted to boot from an already installed OS with the memory multiplier set too high and saw numerous examples similar to what you are describing. Since I had bought 1600MHz memory I mistakenly set the multiplier too high. When I set it back to 1333MHz everything was fine. Either the memory multiplier is set too high for your RAM or it is just the wrong RAM to begin with.

I'm using two of this: OCZ3P1333LVAM4GK (OCZ DDR3 AMD Edition, rated for 1333MHz at 1.65V).

Re: amd64: Fatal Trap 12 in high load situations
ms80 wrote: [snip] Thank you for your reply. I'm using two of this: OCZ3P1333LVAM4GK (OCZ DDR3 AMD Edition, rated for 1333MHz at 1.65V). My Board is rated for 1066 - 1600 MHz memory, and neither the website nor the manual say anything about limitations with memory. Anyway: I didn't overclock cpu or memory. I have stability and long life in mind, so I try to keep the hardware cool. During testing I underclocked the memory with 1066 and 800 MHz which didn't help: The machine crashes anyway. The only thing to note is that by default the board tries to set 1.5V DDR3 Voltage which is wrong, you have to set it to 1.65V manually. A faulty piece of hardware was the first thing I suspected and I tested among other things the memory with memtest86+. This runs fine for 4 passes, without any error. As far as I can tell, my memory subsystem is ok. Poking around in the OCZ forum for something I thought I recalled seeing somewhere before. I had seen reports that this board might be touchy about 1.65v memory. As far as the consensus goes with the small sampling I looked at, it seemed that 1.63 or 1.64 vdc was the sweet spot. Some claims are that it didn't want to work at anything either above or below this range. My RAM is OCZ3BE1600C8LV4GK (anything with BE or AM in the part number is designed specifically for AM3). I thought it was 1.5v, but since I didn't remember for certain I checked and it shows a spec for 1.65v. However, I rebooted so I could look at the CMOS/BIOS stuff and I have the System Voltage Control section set for AUTO for all. Then I looked in the PC Health Status page and on the DDR3 1.5V line it was only reading 1.600v. There seems to be a general feeling the newer AMD processors don't much care for higher memory voltages. Try lowering your voltages and see if it helps. I am successfully using this board with the CPU clock set at 240MHz, which with the x14 multiplier results in 3.36GHz operation. The Hypertransport and FSB bus speeds are 2400MHz and the memory is running at 1599MHz at the x6.66 multiplier. When I get the RAM up to 1680MHz is where I can get it to freeze.

Already experimented with that, but it makes tcsh believe the prompt

Detecting cards in USB card reader
In an attempt to get round the problem that my Olympus C-2040Z camera won't communicate with FreeBSD versions above 6.4 I've installed an Akasa AK-ICR-01B internal card reader on my 8.0-RELEASE-p2 system. The reader is detected when the system boots and device nodes are created for da0, da1, da2 and da3. If a card is inserted before booting the computer it is detected and the appropriate device node is created (e.g. /dev/da0s1) but subsequently inserting a card into a slot which was empty fails to create the appropriate device. Playing around with camcontrol and restarting devd have no effect either. After a bit of Googling I found that 'cat /dev/null /dev/da0' appears to be the fix for forcing the creation of /dev/da0s1 after inserting a card in the slot associated with da0. Although this gets round the problem I can't help feeling uncomfortable about attempting to write to raw devices and was wondering if there was any suitable usbconfig or HAL incantation which could be used to achieve the desired effect in a safer looking way. -- Mike Clarke ___ 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

Wireless Access Point
Okay I have finally decided to scrap my old D-Link wireless router in favor of my FreeBSD-8.0 server with a wireless NIC ral0. I have thus far got the NIC to come up and work as an access point. I can connect to this AP with my laptop computer via wireless. I'm running dhcpd on the FreeBSD server so my laptop is also assigned an IP address as well. My existing setup has a FreeBSD server running as a router/gateway for my entire LAN. This router has two NICs one connected to the cable modem from my ISP and one connected to a switch on 10.0.0.0/24 Lan. The existing D-Link router has it's WAN port connected to this same switch and it gets a 10.0.0.0/24 IP address from another FreeBSD server running dhcpd. This D-Link router is running dhcpd and it assigns 192.168.0.0/24 IP addresses to all wireless clients. When a wireless client boots up in my house they connect to this D-Link router and all is well. This setup is working fine as all the workstations on 10.0.0.0/24 can access the Internet and all wireless clients on 192.168.0.0/24 can access the Internet. Now my new FreeBSD-8.0-STABLE server seems to be almost ready to take over for the D-Link router and my old FreeBSD server. I have two NIC's in this server, an ethernet cable one (bge0) and the wireless NIC (ral0) or wlan0. I can ping outside addresses from this new server but of course it's using the 10.0.0.0/24 segment which I knew would work. But even though the wireless clients can connect to the wirless NIC and be assigned an IP address and can ping the IP address of the server, both of them, I cannot access the Internet from any of the wireless machines. I could use some advice on what to do to correct this. ___ 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
MPD5 Question
Hello everyone, I've got MPD5 working on FreeBSD 8, i just got one question. When i add a user in mpd.secret and restart mpd with /usr/local/etc/rc.d/mpd5 restart, the user can login. But there is also a drawback, all currently logged in users get disconnected. Does anyone know if there is a way to reload mpd.secret without disconnecting the connected users ?

What is easiest way to build a BSD 8 binary on a BSD 7 box?
I have a BSD 7 system with the full BSD 8 sources loaded on it, and we use this box to build our custom BSD 8 kernel and tools. We do not install the custom code on the BSD 7 box but simply collect the artifacts as a basis for our custom BSD 8 image. I have a standalone tool that has previously been built on this same BSD 7 system, but it just uses gcc and links against the normal BSD 7 libraries that are located on this box. When we run this tool on a BSD 7 box it works fine. However, we've discovered one function it performs doesn't work properly. It uses kvm_read to collect network statistics and apparently applications that use this function have to be linked against the libraries of the actual target OS. One easy solution of course is to build our tool on a BSD 8 box, and in the long run we'll likely go that route as we move away from BSD 7. Right now though our build server is BSD 7 and we need to build this tool against BSD 8 libraries. This obviously can be done since make world does exactly that-it builds everything against 8.0 objects even if the build is done on a BSD 7 box. Without dissecting the magic going on in make world, can any explain how I could do the same thing with my standalone tool? Specifically, build it on a BSD 7 box but link it against BSD 8 libraries. ___ 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
Clarification Of In Place Upgrade Process
When migrating from 6.x to 7.x and to do system refreshes within a given release branch, I did/do this: - Get sources - mergemaster -i - make buildworld buildkernel - go single user - make installworld installkernel - reboot I now wish to do the same to get to the 8.x branch, BUT ... somewhere on USENET, someone commented that you have to also reinstall/rebuild all the packages/ports when you do this. This was news to me. Is there some reason the entire application base has to be reinstalled when moving to a new branch? If so, has this always been the case or is it new for 8.x? My 6.x - 7.x upgrade went flawlessly using the method above without touching the ports/packages tree.

Is there a way to add this to the setup without editing /etc/rc.conf and restarting the system? Otherwise I have to wait until the make buildworld is over.

why update...

But if doesn't which is my case that is a problem. As I sent a previous mails about problem to rebuilt qt33 and arts (not just me) and the problem became a BIG problem because many other applications don't work. Why all of this rush for update a port in this case jpeg which IMO is not so important (BTW Linux world use K3b for KDE 4 more than six months without problem, we don't) and update for QT33 doen't works??? Is it QT33 less important as jpeg 8.0. As a user of FreeBSD I expected that when update is in the port that is safe to use this port. But looks like that I am wrong. Thanks.

Re: why update...
...if is doesn't work??? It is not the first time and I think the last too but I have a question anywhere: The problem is jpeg 8.0 which need to update many ports. It is not a problem if works. But if doesn't which is my case that is a problem. As I sent a previous mails about problem to rebuilt qt33 and arts (not just me) and the problem became a BIG problem because many other applications don't work. Why all of this rush for update a port in this case jpeg which IMO is not so important (BTW Linux world use K3b for KDE 4 more than six months without problem, we don't) and update for QT33 doen't works??? Is it QT33 less important as jpeg 8.0. As a user of FreeBSD I expected that when update is in the port that is safe to use this port. But looks like that I am wrong. Thanks. Why update? is a question that *you* should ask *before* you update your ports tree, or rebuild your ports. No one is forcing you to track the latest ports tree, that is *your* choice. Committers put in a lot of work to try to ensure that large updates go as smoothly as possible, but there are often some problems that go undetected during test builds, and need to be fixed after the first commit. If you don't feel confident about resolving such problems yourself, then wait for several days after a major commit for the dust to settle before updating. There are four major kinds of problems that often go undetected by test builds: 1) problems that occur because of the presence of outdated or conflicting ports (in the test builds, everything is built in a clean sandbox, unlike on most actual systems, where the presence of ports that haven't yet been updated or conflict but don't have the proper CONFLICTS entries can break updates); 2) problems due to ports built with non-default build options (there are just too many build options in ports to test every possible combination of options, so most test builds just use the defaults; users who use non-default options may have to work with committers to fix any resulting problems); 3) problems that arise because portmaster, portupgrade, and other build tools don't do what the test servers do (sometimes these third-party tools are broken, or problems arise because the tools leave outdated ports in place as they are rebuilding them, so that users can continue to use the ports during the time that they are rebuilt; this can lead to problems that can usually be circumvented, but may break big batches of port builds); and 4) run-time problems that occur after the updating of a port (there are far too many ports, and too few of them have regression test suites with complete coverage that are run before installation, to test the entire functionality of every port as part of a pre-commit test, so users can expect some problems to slip through). You can cut down on the number of problems that you encounter from 1) and 3) by removing all of the ports that you intend to update, and all of the ports that depend upon them, before updating them. There was no rush, as you put it, involved with this update: the committer announced his intention to do this on the mailing lists on Jan. 24, then he worked with other committers to do a full test run, before making any changes. Again, you have the option of using a previous version of the ports tree, or of using packages, or of managing your updates more carefully, or of not using ports at all, but some other packaging system. You should expect problems from all of these: nothing is perfect. ___ 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
Howto run privileged commands on login/logout
Hi: I'm playing around with diskless operation. I'd like to be able to run privileged commands when a user logins or logs out: - on login, nfs mount the user's home directory (ok, not critical, I can mount /home) - on logout a system reboot to clean up any temporary files left from the session. Is this possible, without messing arround with sudo or adding users to wheel or operator groups?

Modules and Custom Kernels
Hey everyone. Please bear with me as I'm very new to FreeBSD. I've recently started building a custom kernel after having had to apply a patch to enable support for my wireless device (Atheros 9285) in 8.0-RELEASE, and had a quick question about the process in general. According to the documentation, a line with device driver name will cause that driver to be compiled into the kernel. If one of those lines is commented out, does that mean that the driver will still be built, but that it will be installed as a module? I didn't see anything that told me that explicitly in the documentation, but that's the feeling I got from what I read. I just want to make sure that my assumption is correct, and if not, how to make sure that something gets built as a module rather than built directly into the kernel. In all, the process looks relatively painless as long as I'm careful not to make too many changes to the GENERIC config. Hopefully this isn't a dumb question :) I really like FreeBSD so far, and think I'm going to enjoy my new experience quite a bit. Thanks in advance!
