Matrox G450 DVI console

2006-01-10 Thread Mark Knight
Running an up-to-date 6.0-STABLE with xorg-6.8.2.  System is a dual Dell 
PIII with a PCI Matrox G450 to a single DVI flat panel on screen one. No 
second monitor.  mga_hal port installed.


It all works a treat until I switch from X back to the console with 
SHIFT-ALT-F1.  This give me a blank screen with a monitor driven pop-up 
showing Invalid refresh rate.  If I then ALT-F7 to switch back to X 
the display returns normally.


Any idea how I can get a clean switch from X to the console please?

Disabling ACPI (on a hunch from Google) didn't make any difference.

Cheers,

on FreeBSD 5.4-STABLE, but on 6.0 they cause kernel panic.



In my experience, they were panicing the 6.0 kernel during the shutdown 
phase, when the modules where kldunload-ed... For now I just commented 
out the stop) part of the script and no more panics.


For merely starting asterisk with zaptel loaded causes a panic.  For

ufs and Plextor PX-708A 1.04

2004-02-23 Thread Mark Knight
I'm running 4.9-stable from November.

I've recently installed a Plextor PX-708A v1.04 DVD rewriter.  I'm
getting good results using growisofs.

On the belief that +RW support random access, for a bit of fun I created
a ufs filesystem on the device with freshly formatted DVD+RW media:

  disklabel -r -w cd0c auto
  newfs /dev/cd0c
  mount -o noatime /dev/cd0c /mnt

On the face of it, the mounted filesystem then appears to work. However,
intermittently (within minutes, but after several MBs), read errors
occur:

(cd0:ata1:0:0:0): READ(10). CDB: 28 0 0 1 65 a8 0 0 20 0
(cd0:ata1:0:0:0): MEDIUM ERROR info:465b0 asc:11,5
(cd0:ata1:0:0:0): L-EC uncorrectable error
(cd0:ata1:0:0:0): cddone: got error 0x5 back

I'm probably being hopelessly ignorant.  Should this work?  I believe
the drive supports DVD+MRW (Mt. Rainier), and that this is supposed to
implement some sort of defect management.  However, is OS support
required as well?

Any advise appreciated.
