pkg install on freshly installed 9.1 doesn't find any packages
I installed 9.1 from iso image. Then 'pkg' command brought pkg-1.0.11 package. Now commands like 'pkg install gnome2' always say: pkg: Package 'gnome2' was not found in the repositories. Am I missing something? This is vanilla 9.1 from DVD image. Nothing else.

Why PostgreSQL doesn't start with shared_buffers=6GB ?

RELENG_9 is supposed to represent the latest branch of 9.1. De facto, code says it is PRERELEASE (sys/conf/newvers.sh). But freebsd.org on its front page says 9.1 is at RC-2. So how can I get RC-2 through cvsup except through RELENG_9 which gives PRERELEASE ?

Mouse motion event holds up the input
This started from some system update. There are some strange dependencies on mouse motion event. For example, when google is open in chromium and I click on some search choice, it only goes there after I move the mouse, click itself is not enough. Same when I press Ctrl-Alt-F1, it only goes to the black terminal when I move the mouse. Another symptom that I think is related is that doubleclick on the word in konsole in kde4, and in all browsers, isn't selecting the word as it should.

On 11/02/2011 15:33, Adam Vande More wrote: In regards to the second, I just tried it on a new clean install of 9 RC 1 and it didn't work. However it worked after I installed flashblock. There seems to be a least one secondary flash object on that page which prevents the video from playing. However, I will add on rare occasion I've found a video like this and it actually will play eventually, perhaps after hours of waiting. I think the reason for this is that the linuxulator doesn't perfectly emulate Linux system calls, and when you run flash that which targets these system calls, the npviewer cannot proceed until those calls are finished. In those cases, quite a bit of time can elapse until those faulty syscalls end hence the very long delay before video playback. That's just a theory, and I'm happy to be proven wrong. Or even better, proven right and fixed. In the meantime, you now have workarounds for both videos. I'm sure you can get the bottom of the trouble with first video with some tenacity, as the problem must exist in your home directory. Workaround for only one by changing the user, and the other one just doesn't work for any user. It would be easier to have standalone nspluginplayer working, but it doesn't. Do you know why it doesn't work as it used to?

Do you find chrome on FreeBSD buggy?
I keep seeing some artefacts, like text selection isn't cleared by clicking anywhere else. Or when some strange (Unicode) symbol shows up, for example on wikipedia article history. Or some page would randomly blank out. Or some page would show message like Aw, snap meaning some kind of failure. I did rebuild all dependencies, also updated system several times, but such artefacts seem to persist. Contacting port maintainer didn't help either as he couldn't reproduce some of them. So is it just my system, or others also see such things? Is chrome considered to be stable on FreeBSD? FF, on the contrary, doesn't show anything like that at all.

How to specify ssid to ifconfig if it begins with '0x'?
ifconfig(8) says: The SSID is a string up to 32 characters in length and may be specified as either a normal string or in hexadecimal when preceded by ‘0x’. But what if ssid actually begins with ASCII 0x? 'ifconfig wlan0 list scan' shows that my ssid is 0x000. Specifying ssid \\0x000 doesn't help. How to specify SSID beginning with 0x?

But I was wrong, as usual. In the case where the tunnel has vanished, the gw6c program often does not quit right away, and it is usually soaking up a lot of processor in that mode. Thus it was necessary to test for gw6c running and terminate it if it was. Curiously, even when it was not running. the test above would fail in the script. On the command line, it seemed, as near as I could tell, to work just fine.

And turns out that binaries for these extra gcc packages are missing for some reason. And QT is one of the major graphics toolkits. Various random packages use them as well as KDE. Pretty basic thing. It's a case of having space on the servers IIRC. Also some require too many options to be set at build time (probably the problem with qt). I know it's the reason why OO.o is not packaged - too many languages other options. I am not sure how Debian packages handle this.

Is there a way I can rotate Logitech 960-000111 Quickcam Orbit AF USB Webcam in FreeBSD?
This webcam otherwise works. But it is capable to rotate in two dimensions. I found two projects dov4l and setpwc related to this, but they seem to be outdated. Any way I can rotate this cam?

VirtualBox: Pressing some key few times fast causes an event storm
I run Ubuntu guest on FreeBSD host. I am in Open Accessories/Terminal app I get this quite often: when I press some button fast few times it gets pressed endless number of times. This can be Enter after some command. Or Up/Down on some large file in vim. Guest behaves like I pressed this button infinite number of times and stops responding. Trying to close the guest window causes window manager to ask if I would like to terminate the virtualbox application altogether. This means that this window isn't responding. Is this a known bug?

How to prevent system to launch interactive fsck after improper shutdown and reboot?
Almost every time after improper shutdown (poweroff) and reboot I get into interactive fsck. I am being asked whole bunch of questions to which I just have to answer Y (what are my other options?) Why drop user into interactive fsck if there is not much choice anyways? Is there a way to set it up the way it doesn't drop into interactive mode? Like answer 'Y' to all questions?

So in case you want to play with that, that's entirely up to you. In addition, I can imagine that companies (been there done it) do not want to fsck -y by default, this because of the mentioned potential corruption and dataloss. Thanks remko p.s. This was found within 5 seconds in /etc/defaults/rc.conf. Thanks Remko! I never had spare 5 secs for this :-), and now when I left my computer to friends (not computer savvy) they got into this trap. There is no database... I think installer better asks this question during installation since many users just run a desktop and -y is pretty much ok for them.

VBox-3.2.8 has screen refresh problem
When vbox window is minimized or covered by other windows and comes back on top it doesn't repaint. Resizing the window helps to refresh it.

Why skype can't see webcam?
I have webcamd running and can see my webcam using mplayer like this: mplayer tv:// -tv driver=v4l2:width=640:height=480:fps=30:device=/dev/video0 But skype can't see the video. It only sees /dev/video0 device but when I try testing it image is black. v4l support was recently added into 8.1: http://www.leidinger.net/blog/2010/07/29/v4l-support-in-the-linuxulator-mfced-to-8-stable/, this is related. Anybody knows why skype can't use video? On the other hand, I tried to debug this with 'truss -f', but -f flag doesn't follow descendants of the linux process for some reason as it should.

Why network doesn't get initialized on system startup?
I have two similar machines, on one rc.conf has: wlans_ath0=wlan0 ifconfig_wlan0=ssid wifi-net-id weptxkey 1 deftxkey 1 wepmode on wepkey 0x1234567890 DHCP and it gets initialized at startup. On another rc.conf has: wlans_ndis0=wlan0 ifconfig_wlan0=ssid wifi-net-id weptxkey 1 deftxkey 1 wepmode on wepkey 0x1234567890 DHCP and this one doesn't get initialized at startup. The only difference is that the second one uses ndis0 with some preloaded ndis driver. It shouldn't matter. How can I make an interface to get initialized at startup and why it doesn't do this by itself?
