Or you may have also upgraded the linux_base-x.x port
on your computer, but did not tell your other ports
that rely on it, that you did so. You can fix this by
doing a 
portupgrade -rR linux_base-x.x

  daemons that fail to start and such.
 
  Type: dmesg or do a # more /var/log/messages

 the messages from the

 Edit /etc/syslog.conf and uncomment the console.info
 line so that is
 looks like this:
 
 # uncomment this to log all writes to
 /dev/console to /var/log/console.log
 console.info   
 /var/log/console.log
 
 Then:
 
 # touch /var/log/console.log
 # chmod 600 /var/log/console.log
 # chown root:wheel /var/log/console/log
 # kill -HUP `cat /var/run/syslogd.pid`
 
 This will record all of the console output from
 syslog or the kernel,
 as well as the boot messages you are interested in,
 the next time you
 reboot.

Ahh ok. What confused me was that there were similar
looking statements already contained in the
syslog.conf file.

With that in mind I now see the purpose of all of the
commands except the last one. For what reason does one
have to perform

kill -HUP `cat /var/run/syslogd.pid`

In other words why must one stop the syslogd daemon?
It will only start up again upon the next reboot. 

And one more question. after doing the above things,
to see the the full listing of boot up messages does
one still only need to do a dmesg?

Thanks again.

 That's very strange..
 Did you install through ports? (make install clean)?
 If not you may have missed some patches to the
 tarball.
 If yes, your Mozilla is newer than mine(?).
 The wrapper works perfectly on FreeBSD-4.7-release.

I didn't use the ports. I just got the tarball,
untarballed it, did a make, make install, which
basically put lib/libflashplayer.so.1
into /usr/local/lib .   Then followed the directions
in the info file which entailed 

cp /usr/local/lib/flash/libflashplayer.so \
   
/usr/X11R6/lib/mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer_linux.so


cp /usr/local/lib/flash/ShockwaveFlash.class \
/usr/X11R6/lib/mozilla/plugins/

and putting

LD_PRELOAD=/usr/local/lib/libflashplayer.so.1
export LD_PRELOAD

at the top of the file /usr/X11R6/bin/mozilla

just below the shebang

But I guess some more magic is required that the ports
takes care of. I did see in the ports makefile there
is a post patch section so like you say maybe some
patching is required. I was under the understanding
that this program was written specifialy for freebsd,
and thought it would not need patching. Well guess I
will use the port. Thanks for the help.

What? NO! I downloaded the skeleton. The tarball goes
in the distfiles directory. Look see above. The
tarball was correctly gotten an put into the distfiles
dir.  No, I am ok with respect to that.

flashpluginwrapper question

2002-12-30 Thread Wayne Lubin
Hi,

I downloaded the flashpluginwrapper tarball,
untarballed it, and /usr/local/lib/libflashplayer.so.1
exits. What additional things do I need to do to get
flash going on my native mozilla? Thanks.

Actually 

apmd_enable=YES

will suffice (man apmd) since apmd will enable apm
(whatever that means) each time it starts up. enabling
both apmd and apm in rc.conf won't hurt, it is just
redundant.

Iwill kk400 with VIA KT400 chipset support?

2002-12-24 Thread Wayne Lubin
Hi,

Was wondering how safe it is to get a mobo with the
VIA KT400 chipset, i.e. does FreeBSD support this
chipset yet?. For example I am considering the Iwill
KK400.

Thanks!

apm

2002-12-07 Thread Wayne Lubin
Hi,

Sleep mode works when I manually do apm -z or
equivalently zzz. The problem is it is not
automatically invoked when the computer is idol for 20
mins. which I have set my bios for.  

dmesg gives:

apm0: APM BIOS on motherboard
apm: found APM BIOS v1.2, connected at v1.2

so the device is being detected.


/etc/rc.conf has got the line:

apmd_enable=YES


/etc/apmd.conf has got:

apm_event SUSPENDREQ {
exec /etc/rc.suspend;
}

apm_event USERSUSPENDREQ {
exec sync  sync  sync;
exec sleep 1;
exec apm -z;
}

apm_event NORMRESUME, STANDBYRESUME {
exec /etc/rc.resume;
}


/etc/rc.suspend looks like:

if [ -r /var/run/rc.suspend.pid ]; then
exit 1
fi

echo $$  /var/run/rc.suspend.pid

# If you have troubles on suspending with PC-CARD
modem, try this.
# See also contrib/pccardq.c (Only for PAO users).
# pccardq | awk -F '~' '$5 == filled  $4 ~ /sio/ \
#   { printf(pccardc power %d 0, $1); }' | sh

logger -t apmd suspend at `date +'%Y%m%d %H:%M:%S'`
sync  sync  sync
sleep 3

rm -f /var/run/rc.suspend.pid
zzz

exit 0


/etc/rc.resume looks like:

if [ -r /var/run/rc.suspend.pid ]; then
kill -9 `cat /var/run/rc.suspend.pid`
rm -f /var/run/rc.suspend.pid
echo 'rc.suspend is killed'
fi

# Turns on a power supply of a card in the slot
inactivated.
# See also contrib/pccardq.c (only for PAO users).
# pccardq | awk -F '~' '$5 == inactive \
#   { printf(pccardc power %d 1, $1); }' | sh

logger -t apmd resumed at `date +'%Y%m%d %H:%M:%S'`
sync  sync  sync

exit 0


I think that is most of the important info. Any help? Thanks.

  I'm finally going to get a printer for my

  Are they all pretty much FreeBSD-compatible?
  or is there some spec I need to look for?
 
  I assume parallel port is still the way to go
  or is USB really ready on FreeBSD?
 
  The most painless way to print within FreeBSD is
 with a Postscript
  printer which speaks lpd protocol on ethernet.
 
  Sadly this is quite an expensive way.
 
 If you can find one on eBay or somewhere, look into
 a Lexmark Optra 
 Color 40 (or 45).
 Nice color inkjet printer, WITH Postscript.  It
 comes with a fighting 
 2MB of memory, but add a 32 or 64MB SIMM and you're
 good to go; prints 
 great from FreeBSD, WinXP, and Mac OS X.  I've 
 loved mine for two 
 years, and recently acquired another NIB that I
 might, MIGHT be talked 
 out of.  Better yet, go find your own - should be
 less than $100.

I think the best thing to do is look at the man page
for gs and look at the sDEVICE swith options which
tells you basicaly which printers it will support. And
buy a printer that it supports and then all you have
to do when you want to print something is convert it
to postscript and then give it to ps to print it. Well
at least this way works for me.

 Those are actually the c sources which
 /stand/sysinstall would
 download --- they are a series of tar(1) files split
 into chunks.  You
 can grab all of those files and then run the
 install.sh script found
 in that directory to install the contents to
 /usr/src.  The source
 code you'll get in this case is exactly the code
 used to build
 4.7-RELEASE.
 
 However, that's a slightly unusual way of getting
 hold of the system
 sources.  Typically nowadays to grab the sources
 wholesale you would
 install the net/cvsup port and use that to grab
 whatever sources you
 want from the FreeBSD cvs.  See

http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/cvsup.html
 
 If you only want one or two files then go to
 http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/, where
 you can pull down
 any version of any file ever used to build FreeBSD.

   Matthew

ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/FreeBSD-current/src/

and

ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/FreeBSD-current/ports/

After all, all cvsup, or cvs, or CTM does is go and
updates your /usr/ports and /usr/src folder, and maybe
your doc folder, doesn't it? In other words I am
currently not interested in using cvsup, or CTM, or

If cvsup is so superior to ftp, then why do both
current and stable exist in both cvsup and ftp form?
And whatever the reason for providing current and
stable in both cvsup and ftp form, why doesn't 4.7
release exist in both forms for the same reasons?

Are you saying that it should actually be

If so kind of weird that they would have it be like
that.

  Try this as rootmount_msdos /dev/fd0 /mnt
  
 

I am having the exact problem as this guy, and I tried
your suggestion

mount_msdos /dev/fd0 /mnt   

as root and I still get 

/dev/fd0: Device not configured

As I discussed in an earlier email that the fd0
device is not showing up on dmesg. Can it be that I
burnt out the floppy drive and now at boot up the
floppy is not being detected?

A curious dmesg output entry

2002-10-16 Thread Wayne Lubin

Hi,

I have this line in my dmesg output

pci0: unknown card (vendor=0x1106, dev=0x3057) at
7.4

but the only cards that I have is one ethernet pci
card, and my video card that is in the AGP slot. And
they are being properly detected.

Can this unknown card be some functionality built
into the mother bord that wants to access the pci
buss? Because all of my pci cards are physicaly
plugged into the pci slots are accounted for.

Thanks,

Wayne

So does that means that this ACPI Power Management
Controller is not supported by freebsd? Or does it
mean that I need to compile the corresponding device
driver into the kernel and then it will be
recognized by freebsd?

Re: A curious dmesg output entry

2002-10-16 Thread Wayne Lubin

Yeah I do have that driver compiled into my kernel.I
guess that explains why my computer is alway on full
throdle. It will probably blow out in about six months
at this rate.  Well since freebsd does not recognize
my built in power management card, I wonder if someone
makea power management cards separately that are not
integrated on a mother board that freebsd would
recognize. I think the power management stuff is
important because if I am not mistaken it handles all
the standby mode stuff which not only safes power, but
also saves wear and tear.

 Hi Wayne,
 
 I'm not an expert on the power management stuff, but
 here is what I have in my
 kernel definitions about power management. If you
 have these lines and have 
 built a kernel with the apm0 device driver and
 things still don't work, I'm 
 out of ideas.
 
 # Power management support (see LINT for more
 options)
 device  apm0at nexus? disable flags 0x20 #
 Advanced Power Management
 
 Some time ago I decided to track down all the
 unknown card messages I had 
 been getting. That's how I found the
 www.yourvote.com/pci site. At the moment 
 I have all pci devices accounted for and have no
 unknown card messages.
 
 FreeBSD is frequently not completely up-to-date in
 supporting the latest 
 hardware, hey it's FREE. One particularly annoying
 area is X11 support for the 
 latest graphics cards. I have been careful to buy
 machines that have hardware 
 supported by FreeBSD, but it's always a bit of a
 gamble when buying a new 
 system.
 
 I have had good luck with the new Dell systems, by
 the way, as long as you 
 don't pick a graphics card that is too new for
 XFree86.
 
 I hope this is of some help,
 
 Brian

floppy problems

2002-10-15 Thread Wayne Lubin

Hi,

I used to mount my msdos floppy with the command

mount -t msdos /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy

but then after forgetting to umount it before shutting
the system down one evening I now get the error
message

msdos: /dev/fd0: Device not configured

dmesg lists only the following device that I think
pertains to the floppy

fdc0: NEC 72065B or clone at port 0x3f0-0x3f5,0x3f7
irq 6 drq 2 on isa0

Furthurmore /dev does contain devices fd0 but does NOT
contain fdc0.

I even tried the following command

mount -t msdos /dev/fd0.1440 /mnt/floppy

and got the same error message

msdos: /dev/fd0.1440: Device not configured

and yes /dev/fd0.1440 does exist.

Also I tried 

mount -t msdos /dev/fdc0 /mnt/floppy

and get the error message 

msdos: /dev/fdc0: No such file or directory

Should I just remake the fd0 driver? If so do I just
first delete the current fd0 first and then do a
MAKEDEV? Or do you think maybe that my floppy hardware
is shot because I am no longer getting the fd0 driver
listed during a dmesg printout.

Thanks for your help.

Gnome does not turn on with startx on user account anymore

2002-10-14 Thread Wayne Lubin

Hi,

Starting today, when I do a startx on my user account
the gui turns on to the point of a deep blue color
screen with an X for a mouse pointer and that is it.
Nothing else loads or is on the screen. No controls
either and had to recycle the power and use the root
account to use my browser and write this message. Any
logs that I can look at that will give me a clue as to
what is going on or does anyone have an idea as to
what is going on? 

You may recall that I also have another thread on this
mailing list that states that I was using an msdos
formatted floppy and forgot to umount it before
turning my machine off one time and now when I try to
mount the floppy with a 

mount -t msdos /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy

I get the error msg 

msdos: /dev/fd0: Device not configured

Not sure if the two are connected, but even when I am
logged in as root as I am now I still get the same
msg. But my biggest problem now is this gnome problem.


Thanks for your help on figuring out what the heck is
going on.

Wayne

 I see no one else has taken a shot at this, so:
 
 1) do you have a directory /mnt/floppy
 2) do you have the device fd0 in /dev
 
 for starters.

adding a path to gcc to find #include something.h type includes

2002-10-05 Thread Wayne Lubin

Hi,

I grabbed the prc-tools development environment for
the palmos. The problem is the palm has a bunch of its
own header files and a lot of code includes them in
the #includethefile.h type of include. But the files
live in the palmdev folder, but gcc doesn't look there
by default of course. I tried to play with the -I
switch like so

gcc -c -I /usr/local/palmdev/ -o Main.o Main.c

but that doesn't work. The man page says something
about using -I- along with -I to get it to do what I
want, but I did not understand the man page. Anyone
know what I should do? Is there a way to add the path
to gcc itself so that I wouldn't even have to do it
each time on the command line? Thanks.

Re: adding a path to gcc to find #include something.h type includes

2002-10-05 Thread Wayne Lubin

I installed prc-tools from the ports. I am using
freebsd 4.6.

so I made a little work directory and downloaded some
palm code and tried to compile Main.c as shown below.
Main.c has the following includes

#include BuildDefines.h
#include PalmOS.h

I get the error mesagaes

Main.c:13: BuildDefines.h: No such file or directory
Main.c:17: PalmOS.h: No such file or directory

In other words it is not finding the files. But these
files are in 

/usr/local/palmdev/sdk-3.5/include

In fact, PalmOS.h and BuildDefines.h include more
files that are in
/usr/local/palmdev/sdk-3.5/include/Core/

So there are a bunch of header files for palm
programming that are based at
/usr/local/palmdev/sdk-3.5  and may be stuck even
deaper in folders contained in
/usr/local/palmdev/sdk-3.5/include/

Seems like there has to be a way to add a search path
to gcc to look for included files that are of the type
#include thefile.h.  It would be a pain if I had to
manually put all the needed files into /usr/include.

Hope this is enough info. Let me know if you need
more. Thanks.

 do the header files even exist within

Sorry, forgot to mention that I don't own a palm. And
therefore I must get my rom from elsewhere, namely, I

want to program for many different palms, and hence
even if you own a palm, may want various different
