Mumble
I am trying to install Mumble on a headless FreeBSD server which has no need for X11. Why is this port trying to install X11? Seems like it shouldn't be needed. ___ 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
looking for rack hosting company
Sorry if this is a bit off topic. I am looking to run a Freebsd server with a hosting company. Preferably on the cheaper side as our needs in the beginning will be somewhat limited. I would need enough ram/storage to do some trial and error with different databases. So the vmware virtual servers and limited ram are out. I recall at one time seeing a very reasonable outfit that would rent you a rack cpu for around $100/month range and after 2 years would ship it to you and give you a new one. Can't remember what they were called. I will consider any suggestions. I already checked out the list of venders at freebsd.org not finding what I need.

pkg_add
Though this will not be the focus of my question. Lots of ports are being created for FreeBSD and none submitted. I don't know why. My problem arises when trying to install one of these which is put together quite well. pkg_add -r http://site/something.tbz, or pkg_add something.tbz doesn't work for the dependencies. So how do I tell pkg_add to fetch the first pkg from one site and the rest from the main sites? It is available in source but the system is void of pkg's at the moment and with the 1ghz processor and 512mb ram could take quite a while. And the funny part is it will work perfectly if I just place it in ports/multimedia.

bad superblock question
I had an ide cable go bad, the harddrive was unable to mount. I have since replaced the ide cable. when I fsck I use the alternative superblock at 32 I believe. How do I copy the alternative to the non-existant main? -Darren __ Yahoo!

Re: bad superblock question
I know, however it isn't fixing the first sector, it uses the backup(already repaired it), and never at any point does it fix the original. As a result, I can't mount it and get it to boot up.. my /var is on this drive. and is rather important. repeatedly running fsck, it just asks to use the backup at sector 32. I can't seem to find any other software to replace it or edit it. I've read a fair amount of man pages now. -Darren --- Mike Jeays [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: On Sun, 2005-10-09 at 14:29, Mr. Darren wrote: I had an ide cable go bad, the harddrive was unable to mount.

Re: bad superblock question
It would be nice if I could do that, it only says bad super block. Because there currently is no super block at the begining of the drive. The rest of the drive seems intact because fsck can run off the superblock at sector 32 and finish's. At no point does it make a new superblock where I should have one. If anyone knows how to mount using sector 32.. that would be nice. -Darren --- Chris Hill [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: On Sun, 9 Oct 2005, Mr. Darren wrote: I know, however it isn't fixing the first sector, it uses the backup(already repaired it), and never at any point does it fix the original.

At least then you could get your data off it. HTH. --- Mike Jeays [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: On Sun, 2005-10-09 at 14:29, Mr. Darren wrote: I had an ide cable go bad, the harddrive was unable to mount.
