Testimonial - Thanks to FreeBSD
Hi, starting on mainframe in the middle 80's, i met a dilemn in the later 90's : if you want a job, you must run on Microsoft. Well, i started a new learn of computing on this OS, un-learning all about i knew on computing, a very difficult task when you're coming from IBM... All my friends repeated to me : you should work on Unix like system, you should .. 2 month's ago, i would like to setup my own server, at home, with web, ftp and mail services. I want him robust, efficient, safe and so one. i dreamed to get an old 3090 for 500$ !, but there's no place at home for him :o) Thus, i have started to install my first FreeBSD (on a very special computer) ... 2 weeks later, without any knowledge about Unix like systems, my httpd, ftpd ran (very ?!) well. This mean that your system is well designed and documented. Monitoring access, it's incredible to see that BSD is faster by 2 to 3 than other tested system. and i discovered that computing is absolutely what i learned on IBM .. Great thanks to the community, and your effort to document FreeBSD, even in French (we are so bad with others languages ..!), i hope to help the FreeBSD users by writing some drivers and other things, K. Regards, take care, -- Valery aka v/ www.vslash.com - opened today. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
KERNEL : Ethernet Device not recognized
Version : FreeBSDi386-5.2.1 Foreword : FreeBSD5.2.1 is used because 4.1 don't recognized my motherboard correctly. Hi, some trouble to start an integrated Ethernet Device by FreeBSD. Loader give the message : pci2: network, ethernet at device 8.0 (no driver attached) in my case, i'm using : MotherBoard : Asus P4SL8 / Pundit Ethernet: 3Com 3C920B-EM-WNM Integrated Fast Ethernet with this informations (returned by NT5.1) : PCI 2, device 8 (same as FreeBSD) IRQ 18 I/O : EC00-EC7F Memory : FE20-FE20007F Here's the Kernel Configuration : * loader.conf I tried to load the module 'if_xl' on loader.conf but got the message that module was already loaded (default/loader.conf set the if_xl module_load to NO)... * device.hints (5.2.1) hint.ed.0.at=isa hint.ed.0.disable=0 hint.ed.0.port=0xec00 #Loader resp. : wrong hint.ed.0.irq=18#Loader resp. : wrong IRQ - over 15 hint.ed.0.maddr=0xFE20 #Loader resp. : wrong addr Well. My questions are : Q1 : how to attach a device driver on pci2.dev8 ? Q2 : how to setup correctly parms in device.hints ? Q3 : why loader say that if_xl is already loaded when setting up if_xl_load to YES ? Q4 : setting up verbose_loading=YES has worked one time, but seem to be ignored by the loader now (no verbose in /var/log/messages) Why ? Thanks, as you understand i'm a very newbies on FreeBSD, i would like to migrate my Apache from NT5.1 to FreeBSD but without network i'm affraid that would be not possible :o) Regards, PS : i can't send you my /var/log/messages file because i can't write on my NTFS partition (mount_ntfs doesn't permit that) and have no floppy on my computer (a friend give me this computer, this was not my choice, sorry ..) -- Valéry Seys / Paris-France ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
KERNEL : ethernet device not present on if_xl module
Version : FreeBSDi386-5.2.1 Foreword : FreeBSD5.2.1 is used because 4.1 don't recognized my motherboard correctly. Note : this email following : KERNEL : Ethernet Device not recog. by [EMAIL PROTECTED] at Wed, 18 August 10:59 GMT Hi, it seem that the following PCI_ID is not included in the module if_xl.c : PCI_ID: 9202 Relative to: 3Com 3C920B-EMB-WNM Integrated Fast Ethernet Controller Question : Q1 : how to obtain a certified if_xl module with this PCI_ID ? (if_xl.c have only the 9201 PCI_ID, could we use this one by renaming it ?) A compiled .ko version will be nice.

Newbies Question
REF : documentation http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/install-start.html Hi, i'm installing FreeBSD in order to change my NT5.1 with Apache ftp server. I'm comming from IBM OS/390 mainframe and don't know anything on Unix like systems. I'm a C/C++ developper too. My question beeing very simple, i think you don't need technical information, but see on * lines below. Q : how to launch the Kernel Configuration Menu script as described on Ch 2.3.2 (fig. 2.1) ? i don't have any option to do that on the Loader Menu (i tried all) i tried to grep-find the script (or command) but fails. * i'm using/booting from FreeBSD 5.2.1, disc-1 * boot0 boot1 are Ok * Loader Ok * Sysinstall running Ok Note : a mini-install of 5.2.1 is currently installed on my HDD and seem to work properly. I would like to configure more accurately my Kernel now. Great thanks, FreeBSD is exactly what i want, -- Valéry Seys / Paris-France ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
