[Announcement] TeX Live 2011: Extended FreeBSD support
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: RIPEMD160 Dear FreeBSD community, Yesterday, Karl Berry announced the release of TeX Live 2011: http://tug.org/pipermail/tex-live/2011-July/029711.html For those of you who use the official distribution, we arranged everything so that TeX Live 2011 should work on FreeBSD 7, 8 and 9 (i386 and amd64) out of the box. However, there are some special cases; like the previous year I prepared the Extended FreeBSD support page: http://anthesphoria.net/FreeBSD/TeXLive-2011/bin/ These special cases include FreeBSD 8 and 9 users who need applications such as asy and xindy, and users of older FreeBSD releases (5 and 6). Please refer to README.txt for the detailed info. A special note for users of biblatex: FreeBSD binaries of the next-generation biblatex backend, biber, are included in TeX Live 2011. An additional support for biblatex-biber users on older FreeBSD releases is available as well: http://anthesphoria.net/FreeBSD/Biber/ Since biber is a Perl script that relies on many newer-than-ported and not-yet-ported Perl modules, this is currently the only easy way to run biber on FreeBSD. - -- Nikola Lečić = Никола Лечић fingerprint : FEF3 66AF C90E EDC3 D878 7CDC 956D F4AB A377 1C9B -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v2.0.17 (FreeBSD) iJwEAQEDAAYFAk4pwnsACgkQ/MM/0rYIoZiTFgP+Oq6Eonjesoi26pBjmLu4Lg3a E8HSUcOsVtmnBTIb/UBCAujC3P6vUGaaUQM28UCZ1cmZbl/1k54V3wiGCr4YdFc7 r9kdFPWmCgOWLX0PWcPhuOilmdhz3/h9D0fQYct4r80y2kjg/7TpOd+Tdqnd48z+ rxeY/A8QK1wjD31I3Co= =Myto -END PGP SIGNATURE- ___ 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

Re: FreeBSD support for HP DL180/G5
HP produces pretty good boxes and historically I have been able to get them working without any troubles. However I would say DL180 is a pretty non customizable box. The hardware works perfectly with FreeBSD 7.0. I didnt try it with 6.3, so cant comment on that. However I would say DL380 is a better off. The main advantage of DL3xx boxes are there is a lot of room to play with add-on cards. Also not all the latest and greatest processors are available with DL1xx family of servers. Also make sure that you go for an external RAID controller like 3ware or Areca. I prefer Areca more :-D. The HP RAID controller cant take the beating I give to it.

Judging by the SX label and the information on the page, no, because it doesn't have a FPU. I'm surprised they claim Linux compatability since I thought Linux required an FPU as well. FreeBSD 4.X supports these with the kernel option MATH_EMULATE or GPL_MATH_EMULATE Later versions of FreeBSD got rid of that option. NetBSD 4 still has MATH_EMULATE but it's buggy. There was a discussion last month on the NetBSD mailing list about whether it would be a good thing to fix it. You could, possibly, recompile FreeBSD (or more likely, picobsd, see man picobsd for information) with the -msoft-float option to gcc to build a version that would not require a FPU. But you still need an emulator that would supply the floating point operations. gcc includes (or included) a generic implementation of these functions in dp-bit.c and fp-bit.c. Of course, it would be under the GPL. Or you could get the FreeBSD 4.11 source and dig up the ancient emulator that was under the BSD license and use that. Here's a thread fragment I found that discusses the process with regards to building libgcc http://www.busybox.net/lists/uclibc/2002-May/003404.html Good luck - some things are better off left dead, the non-FPU cpus were one of these things.

FreeBSD support for Jetway J7F4
Hi: I have searched around to verify that everything works fine for this motherboard with integrated CPU: Jetway J7F4. I understand it has a CN700 north bridge and a VT8237R or VT8237RP south bridge, and Realtek RLT8110SC dual LAN. I have found reports that FreeBSD hangs when doing ifconfig re1 up, has this been solved? Does it work if only one NIC is used? I understand from wikipedia that autonegotiate of SATA speed with VT8237R fails, but what about VT8237RP? Not a huge problem though, I plan to get a disk that accepts speed setting by a jumper. Does RAID work with this south bridge?

I am trying to setup a FreeBSD server as a PPP server that can authenticate a Windows client using MS CHAP v2. From the ppp manpge: MSChapV2|chap81 Default: Disabled and Accepted. It is very similar to standard CHAP (type 0x05) except that it issues challenges of a fixed 16 bytes in length and uses a combination of MD4, SHA-1 and DES to encrypt the challenge rather than using the standard MD5 mecha- nism. So I would guess that it is supported.

Clevo D900K and 64 bit FreeBSD support???
I've been looking into replacing my current laptop/desktop with a Clevo D900K, AMD-64 machine. I'm just curious if anyone out there has any experience getting FreeBSD up and running on this machine and at what capacity (card reader, 8.1 sound card, WLAN+Bluetooth, Hardware RAID, etc.) I was going to go with the Nvidia Quadro graphics card and am curious on the status of 64bit native nvidia drivers. I know it wasn't/isn't supported as of yet. Also I was hoping to take an existing i386 system and move it to the 64bit system. Can I by properly specifying the environment rebuild an i386 system to 64bit? Or am I better off/ have too install a fresh 64bit system? I would imagine this could tick off a few ports like portupgrade that would make rebuilding tricky at best. I've linked to and included the machine spec for those savy enough to look at the general hardware and know it's level of support. thanks, -brian http://www.clevo.com.tw/products/D900K.asp link might make the following look a little nicer D900K Specification CPU #12290; AMD AthlonTM 64 X2 Processor 3800+/4200+/4600+ #12288; (2.00~2.40GHz, 1MB L2 cache, socket 939) #12290; AMD AthlonTM 64 X2 Processor 4400+/4800+ #12288; (2.20~2.40GHz, 2MB L2 cache, socket 939) #12290; AMD AthlonTM 64 Processor FX-53/FX-55/FX-57 #12288; (2.40~2.80GHz, 1MB L2 cache, socket 939) #12290; AMD AthlonTM 64 Processor 3000+/3200+/3400+/3500+/3800+ #12288; (1.80~2.40GHz, 512KB L2 cache, socket 939) #12290; AMD AthlonTM 64 Processor 3700+/4000+ #12288; (2.20~2.40GHz, 1MB L2 cache, socket 939) Core Logic #12290;VIA K8T890CE + VT8237R Display #12290;17.1 WXGA (1440x900) TFT / 17.1 WSXGA+ (1680x1050) / 17.1 WUXGA (1920x1200) TFT Memory #12290;Two 64-bit wide DDR data channels #12290;Two 200-pin SODIMM sockets, supporting DDR 400 #12290;Expandable Memory up to 2GB, based on 256/512/1024MB SODIMM Module Video Controller #12290;(Option) nVIDIA QuadroTM Fx 2500 #12288;High performance graphic chip #12290;512MB DDRIII Video RAM on board #12290;256-bit video memroy interface #12290;PCI-Express x16 #12290;Fully DirectX 9.0 support #12290;Modular Design #12290;OpenGL support #12290;(Option) nVIDIA GeForceTM Go #12288;7900 GTX High performance #12288;graphic chip #12290;256MB DDRIII Video RAM on board #12290;256-bit video memroy interface #12290;PCI-Express x16 #12290;Fully DirectX 9.0 support #12290;Modular Design #12290;H.264 encode support #12288; (HD-DVD/BD-DVD playback) #12290;(Option) nVIDIA GeForceTM Go 7900 #12288;GTX High performance graphic chip #12290;512MB DDRIII Video RAM on board #12290;256-bit video memroy interface #12290;PCI-Express x16 #12290;Fully DirectX 9.0 support #12290;Modular Design #12290;H.264 encode support #12288; (HD-DVD / BD-DVD playback) Storage #12290;One changeable Primary 2.5 HDD 9.5mm(H) #12290;Serial ATA HDD support #12290;Supporting Master mode IDE ATA-100/133 (Ultra DMA) #12290;One changeable Primary Bay for 12.7mm(H) DVD-ROM / Combo / DVD-Dual Driver #12290;(Option) One external USB 1.44MB Floppy Disk Drive #12290;(Option) One changeable Secondary 2.5 HDD 9.5mm(H) #12290;(Option) One changeable Secondary Bay for 12.7mm(H) DVD-ROM / Combo / DVD-Dual Driver Keyboard#12290;Full size keyboard, with Numeric Pad, Multi-Language support #12290;Built-in Touchpad with scrolling function Sound System#12290;AC'97 2.2 Compliant Interface #12290;3D stereo enhanced sound system #12290;Virtual 8-channel audio output #12290;Sound-Blaster PROTM compatible #12290;S/PDIF Digital output #12290;SRS (Sound Retrieval System® ) / WOW 3D sound technology #12290;1x Built-in Microphone #12290;4x Built-in Speakers #12290;1x Built-in Sub woofer #12290;1x Built-in Audio DJ Console for music CD (MP3 format compatible) I/O Ports #12290;4x USB 2.0 ports #12290;2x Mini IEEE1394a ports #12290;1x S-Video jack for TV output (HDTV support) #12290;1x Serial port #12290;1x Parallel port (LPT1), supporting ECP/EPP #12290;1x Infrared Transfer port #12290;1x DVI port #12290;1x PS/2 port #12290;1x Headphone jack #12290;1x Microphone jack #12290;1x S/PDIF output jack #12290;1x Line-in jack for Audio input #12290;1x RJ-45 port for LAN #12290;1x RJ-11 port for Modem #12290;1x DC-In jack #12290;1x CATV input jack (optional function with TV-Tuner module) #12290;1x S-Video jack for Video input (optional function with TV-Tuner module) Slot#12290;Built-in 10-in-1 Card Reader (MS/MS Pro/SD/MMC/CF/SM/MicroDrive/MS DUO/Mini SD/RSMMC) #12290;1x Type II PCMCIA socket Communication #12290;Infrared Transfer : 115.2Kbps SIR/4Mbps FIR, IrDA 1.1 compliant #12290;10/100/1000BASE-T Fast Ethernet onboard #12290;Integrated V.90/56K Azalia Modem (V.92 compliant) #12290;(Option) 802.11b/g MiniPCI Wireless LAN Module #12290;(Option) BluetoothTM Class II V2.0 Module, combo with 802.11b/g Wireless LAN Module #12290;(Factory option) 1.3M-pixel Video Camera module Power #12290;Full Range 220W AC adapter - AC input 100~240V, 47~63Hz,

It has to be able to run as isolated from the rest of the kernel as possible in order to give a true snapshot of the undisturbed state.

I read a while back about someone working on supporting sparse kernel crash dumps (dumping only the active kernel pages to the dump device as opposed to all physical memory - for machines where the phys mem is greater than the dump dev space.) Does anyone know the status of that project? Was it committed, or are there plans to commit it? Thanks, Paul. __ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

Do you think your code is easily back-portable to 5.4? Are the changes limited to dump_machdep.c or otherwise not dependent on a great deal of -current updates? My WIP is relative to 6.x. It will port forwards to current fairly easily, and will port to i386 trivially. The code would be simpler on i386 because direct map data doesn't exist there. But on the other hand, i386 has to deal with PAE mode and the dump code would be significantly impacted by PAE mode Changes are mostly in sys/amd64/amd64/dump_machdep.c (a rewrite actually), an 8 line addition to sys/vm/vm_page.c and some trivial patches to some other MD pmap files. libkvm is affected as a complete rewrite of lib/libkvm/kvm_amd64.c. (Porting libkvm changes to i386 will be easy and relatively immune to PAE kernel effects). Do you compress the data stream at all (e.g. gzip)? No, but it could be done in theory.. if you were willing to set aside some memory for the compression algorithm to use. Or just do some sort of simple compression (run length encoding?) The problem is that the dump code cannot allocate memory after the machine has crashed. It has to be able to run as isolated from the rest of the kernel as possible in order to give a true snapshot of the undisturbed state. I have a specific need on a CompactFlash based system. I have a 256MB IDE mode card on a machine with 512MB physical memory. I can probably commit 128MB of the card as a dumpdev but I can't go beyond that. I truely do not know what to expect. Without compression, check the difference between sysctl vm.kvm_free and vm.kvm_size to know how much an uncompressed minidump would take. I don't recall if those are on 5.4 or not (the code for those sysctl's would backport from pmap.c really easily). Good luck with it.

Re: FreeBSD Support (Commerical)
I guess I am interested in finding out if there is support that is offered by the FreeBSD project, not from third party vendors. Basically FreeBSD support is what you see on the web page. In some sense, you could say that all of FreeBSD- development and support - is by third party sources or maybe that all third party contributers are part of the FreeBSD project at some level. In other words, development in FreeBSD land comes from those who use it to provide services - of any kind including supporting other's use of it for hire. But, no, the FreeBSD project per se does not offer commercial support. jerry On 10/6/05, Kevin Kinsey [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Ansar Mohammed wrote: Does the FreeBSD project offer commercial support?

recommended raid cards with freebsd support,
Hi, I have a problem, we have been using the 3ware raid cards which mike put me on to and they have been great, however, I have just built a new machine, abit 8w and pentiumD processor, and all was fine until I put the raid card in, it just hangs with the 3ware message. I have raised it with 3ware, and they say the board is not tested with that chipset, I have tested the card on another machine, where it works fine. I am not getting the feeling that 3ware are going to be able to resolve this any time soon, So that's the background, given that I already have all this kit, and the parallel 250MB drives, could anyone suggest alternative raid cards that they have good experiences of (and have some gui support in freebsd), so that then I can investigate whether they might work with my current set up ?? thanks in advance for any suggestions, Gerald ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

FreeBSD support of RealTek sound chips (HP box)?
I recently encountered an HP computer with what I regard as a unique built-in sound system based on RealTek chips: It breaks out (under Windows XP anyway) into five devices: one playback device and four recording devices. Most sound systems present one device with both record and playback channels. Since FreeBSD seems to have trouble in many cases with simultaneous record and playback on the same device, I thought this might actually be a significant benefit under FreeBSD compared to more conventional chipsets... but it would be difficult to test my theory on this, the only such box I have seen. I'm asking the list because, if this works, I'll probably buy a box just like it for myself.

The documentation doesn't describe the hardware in enough detail to be sure without trying one (or at least seeing one, to be able to read the chipset information off the chips). I *suspect* they should work, because they seem to be 3Com's replacement for some older Tigon-based cards that I am using successfully. But naturally the hardware may have changed completely in the redesign... -- Lowell Gilbert, embedded/networking software engineer, Boston area http://be-well.ilk.org:8088/~lowell/ ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

RE: FreeBSD support
This boot error message general means that your floppy drive is broken. When was the last time you used it? Try to verify that it's in working order by booting an MS/Window system on that PC, or swap that floppy drive with one from some other PC that you can test works first. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Sent: Sunday, January 18, 2004 8:28 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: FreeBSD support Hello Support, I have a problem my floppy drive does not want to work. when my FreeBSD 5.1 boots I have a message fdc0: cmd 3 faild at out byte 1 of 3 and cannot reserve I/O port range (6 port) After logining I cannot use my floppy drive- there is no device file.

I have several boards where this error occurs when ACPI is enabled. It's not a hardware problem. The floppy drives work with other systems, but not with FreeBSD+ACPI (4.9 - 5.1). cu, Uwe ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
