Re: How to turn on keyboard?

2003-03-19 Thread John E. Martin

 I got a small server for my home lan, that doesn't have a
 keyboard plugged into it.  Now it's been up for some 20 days
 and now I plugged a keyboard into it, how can I turn the
 keyboard on ?

You'll need to recompile the kernel and reboot to support this, but locate
your kernel config file track down the following line:

device  atkbd0  at atkbdc? irq 1 flags 0x1

Simply remove the 'flags 0x1' so the line appears like this:

device  atkbd0  at atkbdc? irq 1


Recompile, reboot, and you're good to go.

Re: Verizon DSL FreeBSD?

 Anyone know if you can get Verizon DSL working with
 FreeBSD?

No problem at all.

Verizon DSL uses straight DHCP. No PPPoE involved at all. At least, here in
West Los Angeles that is the case.

Re: CLI resolution

2003-02-20 Thread John E. Martin
 In linux you have the ability to increase the resolution for the command
 line, so you can get more lines shown on the screen. How can I do this
with
 FreeBSD?

Try using /stand/sysinstall and go to 'Configure' and then 'Console' to set
your console font size.

That should do it!


Peace,
