 Hi,

 Have you tried to manually upgrade databases/ruby-bdb ?  Or, as the
 error suggests, you can specify '-k' to force it to upgrade the port.

mysql - linuxthreads

2006-01-27 Thread Romeo Theriault
A week or so ago I wrote to the this list asking about Freebsd and  
Mysql, wondering if you still needed to compile Mysql with  
linuxthreads to get better performance under Freebsd 6. I didn't get  
much of a response so I looked around for the answer. I thought I'd  
write back to the mailing list to tell anyone interested what I found.


In the Freebsd 6.0 is seems that to get the best MySQL performance  
you need to do a few things.

#compile your kernel with the ULE scheduler
#use the TSC timecounter
#use the libthr threading library with mysql
	#and it seems mysql 4.x has better performance than 5.x under  
Freebsd 6.


Here are some websites that I found useful with this:

Re: mysql - linuxthreads

2006-01-27 Thread Romeo Theriault
I didn't personally measure it, though someday I hope to be able to,  
but I did read in several places that using the ULE scheduler was the  
better choice to use with FreeBSD. Here are the links that are  
noteworthy:

Thanks, this is always useful!

I'd be inclined to doubt this..all my measurements show ULE is slower
than 4BSD except at negligible load.  How did you measure it?


#use the TSC timecounter
#use the libthr threading library with mysql


You definitely want libthr.

Re: A strategic question

2006-01-27 Thread Romeo Theriault
I still consider myself a Unix newbie after using Unix based  
systems for about 5 years now. I've never just solely used Unix based  
systems , but they hold the most interest for me. The fact that I  
don't know how to do everything right away and I have to work at  
these types of problems keeps me coming back for more. Not to say  
that I don't ever get frustrated by it sometimes. There have been  
times especially in the beginning of learning Unixes where I've  
said Screw it!! and went back to using Windows. But I always find  
myself coming back and each time learning more and going back less.


I still don't use Freebsd or Linux etc as my primary Desktop  
machine, because I'm not a Unix expert and still prefer a comfortable  
gui. For the time being I'm very happy using Mac OS X as my desktop  
machine, because I can use the Unix underpinnings but still have an  
exceptional gui that I don't need to fuss with to get working the way  
I like.


One thing that I read about the programming language perl was that  
where ever possible it was made easier for the expert instead of the  
newbie, the philosophy being that your only a newbie once and you'll  
appreciate the elegant simplicity (though initially difficult) of  
language later. I find this true for the Unixes also. Generally the  
system is built with experienced users in mind. But once your used to  
it you'll be thankful.


So take your time. Everything won't work the way you want it to over  
night.


There are also some other BSD's that are supposedly easier to install  
and run. I believe

PCBDS is one of them.

This posting doesn't contain a technical question about FreeBSD,  
rather a

strategic one.

Some time ago, I wanted to migrate to a Unix environment, because I  
wanted

to have a secure, stable, convenient and efficient environment for
developing and running programs, no longer having to buy a new PC  
with a new
OS and applications software every 3 years to support Bill Gates'  
only goal
(becoming and remaining the richest man of the USA). At the end of  
the 20th
century, it took us only a few years to have to upgrade from Win 95  
to Win
95SE, to Win 98, to Win 98SE, and to Win ME, only to remain with a  
poor OS.
Now, when reinstalling my version of Windows XP, it takes me more  
time to
download and install the SP2 than to install Windows XP. I wonder  
how people
with a low-bandwidth Internet connection do to download the SP2 for  
Windows

XP.

I downloaded Solaris 10 and a lot of documentation about it, then  
installed

Solaris 10. As opposed to Linux and free BSD implementations of UNIX,
Solaris looks like a professionally developed operating system. It  
seems to
be1 a very advanced operating system. However, I soon realized  
that, when
one wants a yacht, it is not a good idea to acquire the Queen Mary  
II, just

as it costs too much time to acquire a hotel to have a cup of coffee.

Then I downloaded what I thought being one of the best Linux  
distributions,
Suse Linux. I tried to install it, but the system got locked up by  
something
so stupid as my nVidia modem. Together with the heterogeneous  
quality of
Linux components, and not at all liking Linus Torvald's arrogance,  
I decided

to abandon Linux.

I came to FreeBSD, with the idea that it had a more homogeneous  
quality
development model, downloaded the FreeBSD 6.0 boot CD and CD 1 and  
2, and

installed it on my PC, following the handbook.

I knew UNIX is a toolkit intended to IT knowledge people, so it  
will never
perform a breakthrough to the average desktop user. But my  
disappointment

with FreeBSD was great.

In fact, to install FreeBSD, one needs already a lot of knowledge  
about the
system. To acquire that knowledge, one needs experience on an  
installed

system. But to have an installed system, one needs already a lot of
knowledge about the system. That's the problem.

The handbook doesn't tell you that, at the last chance message,  
you have
to take out the boot CD and to insert CD 1. But if you don't do so,  
nothing

gets installed.

I configured a German ISO keyboard, but many keys don't work  
correctly. One
has to look with Google to find additional information about  
configuring a

German keyboard.

I have a cable Internet connection and my network card was  
recognized, but
getting an IP-address with the DHCP service of my provider was  
impossible.
Again, I had to look up with Google how to allow the firewall to  
get an

IP-addres with my provider's DHCP.

The locate command did not work, as the locate database seemed to be
corrupted. I had to figure out how to rebuild this database.

The root user had a csh, while ordinary users had a sh shell. I had to
figure out how to provide the same shell to the root user and the  
other

users, as all those virtual users are all one and the same person, me.

I tried to setup an X Window environment

mysql with linuxthreads

2006-01-21 Thread Romeo Theriault
I've read alot about FreeBsd 5.x series being so much faster with  
mysql when it's built with linuxthreads. Is this still true for  
Freebsd 6.x. If so how do I build mysql with linuxthreads? How do I  
know what the options are when I build any package for that matter?   
Thank you

how to keep a freebsd 6.0 release up to date

2005-12-30 Thread Romeo Theriault
Hi, I'm interested in how to keep a freebsd 6.0 release up to date  
without having to follow the stable branch. All of the security  
advisories have instructions on how to patch systems up to 5.4, even  
though 6.0 is listed as affected also.  I've read that 'freebsd- 
update' will do this, is this correct?   But if I don't want to use  
'freebsd-update' is there a security branch I can follow with CVSup.


Thanks,

 You should be able to, in theory at least. Once you get into the setup menu
 go to options and change the release from 4.9 to 4.1.1-RELEASE and when

 I have 4.1.1. on a CD. I tried with the 4.9 floppies but I couldn't. I received 
different errors (panic: going nowhere without my init!). Maybe the disks were bad. 
When I remembered and used the 4.1.1 images it went ok. So that was my doubt.
