Xorg 7.2 and FreeBSD 6.2-p5 VMWARE vmmouse problem
Howdy, I was successfully able to get Xorg upgraded to 7.2 by just installing them from scratch as opposed to trying to upgrading an existing system, BUT I’ve run into a problem… While running VMWare Server 1.0.3 with FreeBSD 6.2-p5 and Xorg 7.2, the mouse pointer behaves very oddly. The pointer appears in the wrong place on the screen for where the system actually thinks that it is. I’m using the vmmouse driver part of the Xorg system, as the regular mouse driver doesn’t appear to work at all, unless some settings are amiss. I really like the vmmouse drive because you can move the pointer in/out of the window as you do with regular windows guest OSes. Has anyone experienced similar problems and/ or know of a fix for this?

IBM xSeries 226 Help needed
Hi, I'm having problems with an IBM xSeries 226 system. It has a SATA disk in it, and when booting with FreeBSD 6.0-RELEASE, it does not detect any drives. If I boot in safe mode, however it can see the disk just fine as ad4 and I can install the OS on it. I tried turning on/off ACPI but that didn't help either. Why does it work okay in safe mode but not normal mode? Verbose booting in normal mode says this about the ATA controllers, so I'm assuming it is actually seeing the CDROM and the disk: ata0: reset tp2 stat0=00 stat1=00 devices=0x4ATAPI_MASTER ata1: reset tp2 stat0=01 stat1=01 devices=0x0 ata2: reset tp2 stat0=50 stat1=00 devices=0x1ATAPI_MASTER ata3: reset tp2 stat0=ff stat1=00 devices=0x0 ata0 and ata2 are reinitted a couple more times, then it can't find any filesystems to mount. --- Andrew ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

pkg_fetch fetches from wrong place???
I'm trying to figure out how pkg_fetch decides where to get packages from. It doesn't appear to consistently fetch from the same directory. Sometimes is fetches from the Latest directory, other times from All. The problem is that the All directory doesn't have the short package names listed, only Latest does. I've set the following environment vars: PACKAGES=/release/packages-5-stable/ PKG_SITES=ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-5-stable / If I run pkg_fetch -v www/apache20 It fetches the file from ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-5-stable/Latest/ap ache20.tbz, and renames it to apache-2.0.55_3.tbz If I run pkg_fetch -v databases/postgresql74-server It tries to fetch the file from ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-5-stable/All/postg resql74-server.tbz The problem is that in the All directory there is no postgresql74-server.tbz file, but if I go look in the Latest directory, there is a symlink for postgresql74-server.tbz to ../All/postgresql-server-7.4.11.tbz. Why didn't pkg_fetch use the Latest directory? Can I force it to use Latest all the time?

(Line 169 of pkg_fetch). As a result, Postgresql74-server sets latest to false. Postgresql74 sets latest to true, however there is no such thing as postgresql74 in packages, it is either -client or -server, etc. I think the author was intending to use the - to indicate the beginning of a version number, but that logic is somewhat flawed given the package naming conventions. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

CARP question (interpretation clarification)
On FreeBSD 5.4-p8, the man page for CARP(4), has a paragraph about net.inet.carp.preempt which reads : net.inet.carp.preempt Allow virtual hosts to preempt each other. It is also used to failover carp interfaces as a group. When the option is enabled and one of the carp enabled physical interfaces goes down, advskew is changed to 240 on all carp inter- faces. See also the first example. Disabled by default. If I understand this correctly, a system having multiple carp interfaces would either see all carp interfaces as all MASTER or all BACKUP, but not a combination of both? On my system, I've got preempt turned on, but as shown below on my backup machine, two carp interfaces are in BACKUP config, and one is MASTER. On the master machine of this pair, I have the reverse, two MASTER, and one BACKUP corresponding to the appropriate subnets. Am I misinterpreting the documentation, or does the preempt function not work the way I expected it to? r2# sysctl -a | grep preempt net.inet.carp.preempt: 1 r2# ifconfig -a ... carp0: flags=41UP,RUNNING mtu 1500 inet 172.16.0.230 netmask 0xfc00 carp: BACKUP vhid 1 advbase 1 advskew 100 carp1: flags=41UP,RUNNING mtu 1500 inet 172.16.20.230 netmask 0xfc00 carp: BACKUP vhid 20 advbase 1 advskew 100 carp2: flags=41UP,RUNNING mtu 1500 inet 10.10.88.1 netmask 0xffe0 carp: MASTER vhid 88 advbase 1 advskew 100 Thanks!

RE: sysinstall full install remotely with no serial console, possible?
You might want to check out ethercons, but you'll probably have to roll your own boot CD with this included. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Elliot Crosby-McCullough Sent: Tuesday, December 27, 2005 07:13 To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: sysinstall full install remotely with no serial console, possible? Hey guys. Basically in my situation I have a broken server in colo with no serial console. It works for the most part but write access to / is gone, and all attempts at repair are not coming about. I'd like to reinstall all but /home (has a seperate slice), however I would have to do so via SSH without the aid of a serial console, and with no CD in the drive. I know sysinstall can run from the OS, and it can install over the network, is it possible to run this full installation remotely in this way, given that it's starting from an installed and configured OS?

CARP VLAN MTU question
Hi, When setting CARP over VLAN configured interfaces, the MTU value of the CARP interface reflects that of the physical interface, not the VLAN interface. Should it not be indicative of the MTU available on the VLAN interface (4 less than the physical interface) since it is to the CARP interface that the data is ultimately directed? System: FreeBSD 5.4-p8 with CARP device compiled in. Interface vxn1 is the physical interface on which two vlans (vlan0 and vlan1) are configured. Two CARP interfaces (carp0 and carp1) are added, one for each vlan. As seen below, the MTU for the physical interface is 1500, and the VLAN interfaces 1496, but the CARP interfaces are showing 1500. vxn0: flags=8843UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST mtu 1500 inet6 fe80::20c:29ff:fef1:9f42%vxn0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x1 inet 10.1.1.1 netmask 0xff00 broadcast 10.1.1.255 ether 00:0c:29:f1:9f:42 vxn1: flags=8943UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,PROMISC,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST mtu 1500 inet6 fe80::20c:29ff:fef1:9f4c%vxn1 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x2 ether 00:0c:29:f1:9f:4c lo0: flags=8049UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST mtu 16384 inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff00 inet6 ::1 prefixlen 128 inet6 fe80::1%lo0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x5 vlan0: flags=8943UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,PROMISC,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST mtu 1496 inet 10.10.10.11 netmask 0xff00 broadcast 10.10.10.255 inet6 fe80::20c:29ff:fef1:9f42%vlan0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x6 ether 00:0c:29:f1:9f:4c vlan: 10 parent interface: vxn1 vlan1: flags=8943UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,PROMISC,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST mtu 1496 inet 10.10.20.11 netmask 0xff00 broadcast 10.10.20.255 inet6 fe80::20c:29ff:fef1:9f42%vlan1 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x7 ether 00:0c:29:f1:9f:4c vlan: 20 parent interface: vxn1 carp0: flags=41UP,RUNNING mtu 1500 inet 10.10.10.10 netmask 0xff00 carp: MASTER vhid 1 advbase 1 advskew 0 carp1: flags=41UP,RUNNING mtu 1500 inet 10.10.20.10 netmask 0xff00 carp: MASTER vhid 1 advbase 1 advskew 0 Andrew ** The contents of this email and any attachments are confidential.

Help/problems with fsck_ffs
FreeBSD: 5.2.1-RELEASE, and 5.2.1-p10 Synopsis I have 2 identical systems with very large 1.3TB disk array (OS sees it as a single drive /dev/da1) On one system fsck /dev/da1s1d works fine, on the other fsck /dev/da1s1d fails with BAD SUPER BLOCK error. Description On the problem system, fsck returns: # fsck_ffs /dev/da1s1d ** /dev/da1s1d BAD SUPER BLOCK: VALUES IN SUPER BLOCK DISAGREE WITH THOSE IN FIRST ALTERNATE LOOK FOR ALTERNATE SUPERBLOCKS? [yn] y 64 is not a file system superblock 917118848 is not a file system superblock 1834237632 is not a file system superblock SEARCH FOR ALTERNATE SUPER-BLOCK FAILED. YOU MUST USE THE -b OPTION TO FSCK TO SPECIFY THE LOCATION OF AN ALTERNATE SUPER-BLOCK TO SUPPLY NEEDED INFORMATION; SEE fsck(8). However when running fsck_ffs -b 192 (192 because newfs listed it as a backup superblock location) /dev/da1s1d on the problem system, it works fine. # fsck_ffs -b 192 /dev/da1s1d Alternate super block location: 192 ** /dev/da1s1d ** Last Mounted on ** Phase 1 - Check Blocks and Sizes ** Phase 2 - Check Pathnames ** Phase 3 - Check Connectivity ** Phase 4 - Check Reference Counts ** Phase 5 - Check Cyl groups 298602 files, 10861179 used, 309521859 free (763 frags, 38690137 blocks, 0.0% fragmentation) UPDATE STANDARD SUPERBLOCK? [yn] y * FILE SYSTEM WAS MODIFIED * Trying fsck_ffs /dev/da1s1d again after responding to UPDATE STANDARD SUPERBLOCK still returns BAD SUPER BLOCK error message, so the update isn't happening, or it is writing to THE WRONG PART OF THE DISK! I recompiled fsck_ffs with debugging and spent a while looking at it, and have a few observations. Setup.c 346:super *= dev_bsize; Interestingly this doesn't work as expected when debugging. Super went from 128 to 128 as I stepped through this code (dev_bsize was 512). I don't know if it is a problem with GDB or with GCC, but when I removed the -O option in the compile, it worked, and super went from 128 to 65536, but didn't fix the superblock problem. Second observation: Setup.c 356 getblk(asblk, cgsblock(sblock, sblock.fs_ncg - 1), sblock.fs_sbsize); This looks like to goes to get the _LAST_ superblock on the drive and then compares it to the first. If they don't match: error. The problem is that there is no way to _correct_ a particular superblock, as the UPDATE STANDARD SUPERBLOCK only fixes the first one if there is a problem with it. The only way to workaround the problem is to backup the data, newfs and restore, but 1.3TB is somewhat large... The question: How to you repair the damaged superblock when it isn't the first one? -- Andrew ** The contents of this email and any attachments are confidential.
