Hi BSD -
Hi BSD - I know on my websites that more worrisome than someone caught reading my poetry as their own is that they have told something is mine that is not. I was thinking about putting the ports tar on my BSD 10 when I was actually successful. I notice that apparently the talking point xorg refresh and the touchstone kde4 artwork seem to be not on your servers. I was wondering whether even after my service that Lord Jesus has not granted me access to a specially fortified server in the basement of a Quebec Church Shrine? Since A.W.O.L bill is against that sort of thing I wonder why Lord Jesus is not working with all his might to do so. -- Steve [Blue Seahorse] ;~) Quiet Rainbows, LLC Poetry, chess, origami FUN! https://www.blueseahorsesreef.org Poetry and commentary on the war; https://www.blueleafsyndicate.org ___ 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
Availability of downloads
Hi FreeBSD - Since PCBSD takes care of all these details this is not actually a complaint. When I was using FreeBSD the only server I could get packages from was in Japan which did so every time although the packages seemed rarely changed. I discovered the FreeBSD 10.0-CURRENT a few days past and since I have 2 machines I thought it would be interesting. I pointed the ports repository to the ports file in the 10.0-CURRENT but when I try to fetch there are always missing packages which causes the machine not to download any packages at all. If I just had gotten the Xorg metapackage and KDE metapackage. The kicker of course is that I told several ladies what to do and they are still downloading after an hour. ;~) -- Steve [Blue Seahorse] ;~) Quiet Rainbows, LLC Poetry, chess, origami FUN!

Flashplayer expiration mini-mainframes
Dear FreeBSD - I am looking forward to installing PC-BSD 9.1 at the end of the week!! The Adobe website states that Flashplayer 11.2 will be the last ported to Linux [although it will forever received security updates.] Flashplayer 11.3 I believe is the first to offer 64-bit support. It is rumored here that Opera 12.5 is to be 64-bit - and could be ready now except that Opera is writing their own Flashplayer like plugin. Are we that lucky? I have been thinking about nearly commodity mini-mainframes for some months and it appears that FreeBSD is the most well positioned. I have heard that 1 in 6 'PC' server buyers asks their vendor for mainframe functions such as are provided by ia64. Surely ASUS and Supermicro would know that. I do not know how long it takes to write a kernel but I here the Linux camp is whispering that they need an ia64 kernel. FreeBSD must have been optimizing it ia64 kernel for at least 6 years. Is FreeBSD that lucky?

Need latest xorg
Hi FreeBSD - I have an AMD HD 7950 video card so I am trying to install the latest FreeBSD xorg available (7.5.2) for an updated driver. When I start make the install immediately stops at MesaLib-7.6.1.tar.gz. I can restart it on a primary using the location given then after a short time the install stops at /x11/9menu (/9menu-1.8.shar.gz) I can also attempt to restart this on a couple of servers but after a trip around the world my install still stops at /x11/9menu I live in Maine (USA) so I pick the MIT primary ftp5 since I inadvertly determined it was MIT. ftp1 also sends me on a trip around the world with the same result. If I can install xorg-7.5.2 I am hoping then that the install of kde4-4.8.4 will complete on this new install of FreeBSD 9.0 Does anyone else have a favorite ftp that cooperates?

Fwd: Error in latest KDE4 install attempt
Hi FreeBSD - I thought someone would probably inspect the files for KDE4 so I would try to install periodically. This morning the error messages were slightly different. While attempting to install qzeitgeist-0.8.0 my machine almost immediately states that moc 4.8.2 has changed too much for these to be compatible. [During verifying qt-something] Then there is a list of items that are 'not in scope' - for instance monitoradaptor or classOrgGnomeZeitgeistDataSourceRegistryInterface. A fetch command for qzeitgeist-0.8.0 is not given so I would not know how to fetch a newer version if I knew the newer version.

Error in latest KDE4 install attempt
Hi FreeBSD - This note does not have the proper running commentary since I get hit from the Internet constantly. The other note on the page is from this past Friday I think. At 12a Tuesday (6/19) I decided to try installing KDE4 again. When I tried to change directory to /x11/kde4 the directory did not exist. I decided to try to install from my FreeBSD 9 disk at this point. In about 10 sec the install told me that it was unable to install 'qt4-svg-4.7.4' I then decided to update my ports collection with portsnap. When the fetch command was downloading the 4 updated metapackages I twice received this error [snapshot is corrupt gnuzip (stdin)] I then tried to change directory to /x11/kde4 thinking that since make is reported to try to fetch the latest files any kde4 would do. I succeeded and started make. The only option was for the 'better diagnostics' library. A bison file was fetched and then the installation began using only files that were found already on my computer. After a good 15 minutes this appeared: /usr/ports/devel/qt4-designer/work/qt-everywhere-opensourse-src-4.8.2/lib/QtDesignerComponents.so: undefined reference to 'QMetaObject: cast (QOject const*) const' Perhaps this helps.

Should I upgrade it to the most recent 6.x and then to 7.x and then to 8.x? Or should I use a more direct route, upgrading it straight to the 8-RELEASE branch? You'll almost certainly find it quicker and less painful to just reinstall using an up to date version of FreeBSD. Personally, I'd go and buy a new hard drive for the machine, install the latest OS and applications on that and then copy over data etc. It helps if you can have both drives mounted in the same machine at once. There are variations on this theme -- for instance if your server has mirrored HDDs then you can split the mirror, re-install on one half, reconcile configurations, data, user accounts between the two halves and ultimately resynch the old drive to the new one. The big advantage of this sort of approach is that you get your new install up and running and tested before you need to commit to the potentially irreversible step of overwriting your last copy of the old one.

Re: Portupgrade Package Question
On Sun, 10 Jul 2011 00:35:28 -0400 b. f. articulated: This is the tag that you would use on src collections to update your base system sources (usually in /usr/src) to 8-STABLE. You would use RELENG_8_2 for the 8.2-STABLE security branch, RELENG_8_2_RELEASE for 8.2-RELEASE, and so on. Reading through the archives, several years worth, it appears that this is one of the most frequently asked questions. Many users, both new (obviously) and some not so new get confused as to what is the proper tag to use for each branch; ie Stable Current, etc.Maybe there should be some way to make it easier to understand. For example: 8.2-RELEASE: original release of code sans any updates, etc. 8.2-STABLE: released version plus security updates 8.2-CURRENT: All updates, security otherwise to the original version ?-CURRENT: The absolute latest release of FreeBSD irregardless of what version it is. Anyway, it is just a suggestion. In any case I think it might be easier for some to comprehend. Anything that eliminates confusion is a plus. I have 34 years experience as a Data Systems technician, system admin, developer, and tech writer, yet I till won't claim I know everything, so please don't flame me. Constructive, polite criticism is welcome. I began my career before Unix or MicroSucks even existed. It is a misnomer to attach a release number to current or stable. CURRENT is called HEAD in source code control vernacular. CURRENT's number is transient. It is often incorrectly referred to as 9. Please refrain from such usage. It is technically incorrect and confuses users who have no knowledge of source code control. Same goes for STABLE. In my opinion, the real confusion is in ascertaining what you SHOULD be using. If you want to run FreeBSD, KDE, gnome, etc., as a PRODUCTION machine, yo should NOT be using CURRENT or STABLE. You should be installing a RELEASE on a TEST machine, verify that ALL your user applications have no showstopper anomales, and DEPLOY the release AFTER testing has given you a great dela of confidence in the software. You should JUMP from a release to the next release, using the testing and deployment mentioned. You WILL get security updates if you track a release, such as 8.2. But again, don't just update your sources and deploy. TEST it on a test machine, before exposing your end users to it. This is referred to as PROFESSIONALISM. The ONLY people that should be tracking STABLE or CURRENT are the people who DON'T need their hand held for system administration. If you violate this protocol, you will be taking developers time away from development to TRAIN you in system admin. PLEASE don't. Hope this helps and if it offends you, please take the time to think about it before you flame me. ___ 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
KDE on FreeBSD
The Newsflash page has a link to freebsd.kde.org, which has a broken link, http://freebsd.kde.org/contact.php I'm wondering if kaffeine has been abandoned, since there is a message in the kaffeine port Changes: 8 weeks arved Attempt to fix build Reported by: pointyhat Drop Maintainership I LOVE kaffeine, but it appears to have many user interface bugs, yet many advanced features. Is it simply that KDE4 development is delaying development of kaffeine, or did the kaffeine guy give up? I've submitted several bugs to KDE and I see them on kaffeine.sourceforge.net, but with someoe else's name (which I elieve means the kaffeine guy is still active, just overwhelmed). There are bugs there that go back to 2005 as unconfirmed. All the bugs marked as FreeBSD came from me. I'd love to help, if someone could help me find a JOB. In the US, virtualy no one runs FreeBSD, so I am unable to find a job, even with 34 years experience. I have been avoiding MicroSux WinBlows jobs.

kqueue + EVFILT_TIMER unreliable timing problems
Hi everyone, I'm trying to use kqueue with EVFILT_TIMER to create an interval timer. However, I'm getting very unreliable results. The code for a test case is at: http://pastebin.com/ratK0AXL I'm finding that regardless of the number of ticks I wait for, it takes around 50% longer than it should. For a 20ms interval, 200 ticks takes 6s not 4s, 2000 takes 60s not 40s. I am running FreeBSD within a virtualbox VM (Windows host, no load) so I know timing may not be as reliable as if I was on the bare metal, but this still much higher than expected. -Steve ___ 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

Firefox printing
With FreeBSD 8.2R and Firefox 3.6.13: When printing postscript to file (or PDF, and actual printers too), the font and spacing of text is incorrect and does not look good. When I do the same on Firefox 3.6.13 on Ubuntu 10.04, I get clear output. have included test-bad.ps to illustrate the difference, n the archive test-ps.tgz. I also converted test-bad.ps to jpg for quick view. Test-good.ps is about 150k larger, and too big to include on this list. I have included the jpg version test-good.jpg. (The example is just a printout of blank CUPS jobs, in which CUPS has nothing to do with problem) I took a look at https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=490475 which may or may not be related to this problem, but I still don't understand why the same firefox build delivers different results (unless ubuntu added patches?).

Respectfully, Robert Huff I installed seamonkey 2.0.11 and I observe the same squishy output. I can print from other applications without any problems either. Print to postscript or PDF and then view it with ghostscript or PDF viewer. Therefore this has nothing to do with CUPS or the actual printing to one's printer. It has to do with the generation of the postscript file, perhaps by cairo. I have included the good postscript output from the linux system's firefox as reference.

Whether you think concerns like these will prove reasonable in the long run, they make a lot more sense than assuming that Alejandro just wonders if the CDDL is dangerous somehow. I would be surprised. Oracle (real Oracle, not Sun) is still the primary developer of btrfs on Linux. They are pretty much going for feature parity with ZFS and want people to actually use it. If they start suing over ZFS patents which are certainly applicable to btrfs, it will have repercussions on that side. ___ 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

Subject: sudo anomaly
I have a userID, admin, that I add to my systems to use when I
perform system admin functions. I also use this ID when using
X-windows, never starting X as root user.
So I needed to check my mail for daily run outputs and so I tried to
use su then mail, but I got admin's mail. So I exited su, and tried
sudo mail. I got root's mailbox nd I deleted all but two emails.
When I q(uit) mail, it said it saved 2 messages in mbox. But when I
try to go back in it says I don't have any mail. There is no root
directory in /var/mail.
All that is correct.
Did sudo lose my mbox?
Nope. _you_ did.
The good news is that you merely misplaced it -- it _is_ were it's
always been, you're just looking in the wrong place for it.`
'mbox' != 'incoming mailbox'
Can anyone verify this anomaly?
no anomaly. simple *USER* error.
Look in root's _HOME_DIRECTORY_. You'll find a file called 'mbox'
=there=.
That's where 'already read' mail is saved.
When logged in as root, use 'mail -f mbox' to see your old mail.
BTW, if you 'su root' and _then_ set evnrionment variable 'USER' to
'root', mail(1) _will_ fetch root's mail.
Thanks. I used mail under unix eons ago, and I don't remember ever having
to use a switch to get saved mail, but perhaps I've simply forgotten. I
use KMail and Thunderbird (under Winblows), but I needed to check daily
output scripts...
did you use 'su root' or 'su - root'? the '-' makes a humongous
difference.
Thanks, I had forgotten about that...

Re: Is this bunk.
Garry wrote: Mac OS X is basically BSD that's been appleised (serious vendor lock-in), they do give a little back to BSDs, but have made sure that BSDs can't get much off of them, but they can get a lot out of BSD. Also, Windows uses (or used to use) a BSD stack for networking for instance. The Darwin core is a hybrid of Mach/BSD (xnu). The Darwin core is open source, and you can download the open source tools they use (and in cases such as CUPS, own and develop) from http://www.apple.com/opensource/ or http://www.opensource.apple.com/. To say they have given nothing back is untrue, they make their changes available which is not required, but that doesn't mean they're actually being used by the community. Their graphical system on top of Darwin is proprietary, but it is possible to build Darwin using the source code provided by Apple. There is only vendor lock in if you choose to use applications which only work in their graphical environment, but for most things that would cause vendor lock-in, they are either open source or available on multiple platforms. It's interesting you mention how Apple doesn't give back, as it has also been the case with Linux and related projects borrowing code from BSD and then not giving back by proving changes under an incompatible license. This has been discussed at length on the lists of some BSD project with an outspoken leader... Also, Linux and GPL software is not immune from the Apple treatment. Android uses the Dalvik VM for all of the software, and Dalvik is under the Apache license which allows for proprietary uses. You should notice this is definitely used to the fullest by cell phone vendors as they release source code for the kernel only. How is it Apple releases more code than is available for your typical Android device? This does not mean to say that I have a problem with the quality of the code in BSD, I just feel that the license is counter productive. The productive hope is that good code will be used, and people will not write bad code instead due to overly restrictive licenses preventing them from using said good code. ___ 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

How do I create a 40x40 pixel monochrome mage for KMail?
I've noticed that several apps support images of the user, such as KMail, which supports a 40x40 pixel jpeg. I have a webcam, but it won't take a monochrome picture and it doesn't snapshot all the resolutions that it can display in. In particular, I tried the two lowest and the lowest, sqcif, isn't supported by my webcam and qsif seg faults. Those would have been 128x96 and 160x120. I figured that if I used the lowest resolution, I could crop out a 40x40 image. Kopete also supports a 200x200 pixel image, but I think it requires exactly 200x200, so 128x96 won't work. I thought that someone said they used kamera to take a snapshot with their webcam but Logitech webcams aren't listed. I can take one with pwcview, which is what I was talking about above. ___ 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

Specifically, I want to read Sony Memory Sticks. pciconf -lv shows the devices: no...@pci0:11:0:3: class=0x018000 card=0x3082103c chip=0x8033104c rev=0x00 hdr=0x00 vendor = 'Texas Instruments (TI)' device = 'PCIxx11/21 Integrated FlashMedia Controller' class = mass storage no...@pci0:11:0:4: class=0x080500 card=0x3082103c chip=0x8034104c rev=0x00 hdr=0x00 vendor = 'Texas Instruments (TI)' device = 'SDA Standard Compliant SD Host Controller (10981734)' class = base peripheral subclass = SD host controller Also, is there one for high definition audio? no...@pci0:0:30:3: class=0x070300 card=0x3082103c chip=0x266d8086 rev=0x03 hdr=0x00 vendor = 'Intel Corporation' device = 'Intel 82801GB ICH7 - High Definition Audio Controller [A-1] (82801I)' class = simple comms subclass = generic modem I guess this is my built in modem, but could it also be used as a sound device? no...@pci0:0:30:3: class=0x070300 card=0x3082103c chip=0x266d8086 rev=0x03 hdr=0x00 vendor = 'Intel Corporation' device = 'Intel 82801GB ICH7 - High Definition Audio Controller [A-1] (82801I)' class = simple comms subclass = generic modem no...@pci0:11:0:2: class=0x0c0010 card=0x3082103c chip=0x8032104c rev=0x00 hdr=0x00 vendor = 'Texas Instruments (TI)' device = 'OHCI Compliant IEEE-1394 FireWire Controller' class = serial bus subclass = FireWire no...@pci0:11:0:3: class=0x018000 card=0x3082103c chip=0x8033104c rev=0x00 hdr=0x00 vendor = 'Texas Instruments (TI)' device = 'PCIxx11/21 Integrated FlashMedia Controller' class = mass storage no...@pci0:11:0:4: class=0x080500 card=0x3082103c chip=0x8034104c rev=0x00 hdr=0x00 vendor = 'Texas Instruments (TI)' device = 'SDA Standard Compliant SD Host Controller (10981734)' class = base peripheral subclass = SD host controller no...@pci0:11:3:0: class=0x028000 card=0x1355103c chip=0x431814e4 rev=0x02 hdr=0x00 vendor = 'Broadcom Corporation' device = 'Broadcom 802.11b/g (BCM43XX)' class = network ___ 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
SNMP of FreeBSD
I'm running 8-Stable, and ports are current. I'm installing snmp support, mostly just to investigate it. I have three ports installed: bsnmptools-0.0.20060818_2 Snmp client tools mbrowse-0.3.1_8 An SNMP MIB Browser for X net-snmp-5.4.2.1_6 An extendable SNMP implementation I got a few errors after initial install. I don't know what pieces of snmp I want. I used the sample snmp.config from the /usr/src tree. I changed the name of the public community name. I uncommented the netgraph and pf lines and maybe even others 8o) I got rid of the errors on the console, except for this Warning: WARNING: attempt to domain_add(netgraph) after domainfinalize() Perhaps this is a bug in the example snmp.config I'm using?

What client(s) tools should I look at? What is it exactly that you need/want SNMP for? If for client only, what do you need to poll? Steve I want to find out what I can monitor with it. I don't know enough about it to know if it will be useful to me. I'm an old hardware guy and I've been Admin'ing my own systems for many years. I am having a hard time finding pertinent documentation. I know one of the ports allows you to monitor the cpu, memory, etc. I already have a Superkaramba theme that has a StarTrek gauge for cpu, memory, swap, network in, network out, etc. I just want to know if SNMP has anything to offer me... ___ 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
pwcview vs permissions
When I run pwcview as a non-root user, it complains about permissions. The perms were 644 on /dev/video0. I set them to 666 and it works, but what is the intended approach? Should I just create a device hint? ___ 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

Source upgrade from 7.2R o 8.0R
When I try to build a kernel, make buildkernel, it complains that several directories are missing, i.e., axe, ums, umass, etc. I'm doing a make update and my file says src-all, so how could there be missing directories? I'm using csup. I tried to go back and use cvsup, but it appears it's been removed. ___ 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
startx and xinit under FreeBSD8
I installed FreeBSD to another partition, so I could check it out. I selected All sources and binaries and KDE4. When I tried startx, it complained that it didn't exist. It's just a script, so I copied it over from my 7.2p5 partition. Now it complains that xinit doesn't exist. Why didn't these two get laid-down by the install?? ___ 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
