Re: scanner??

Hi,

thanks for the answers. I am looking now for a _fast_ epson.

The purpose is to be able to scan pictures with a good resolution but,
more importantly, to scan *hundreds* of pages...

I am a bit lost in ebay, but I keep on searching. Do you have any
recommendation?

I have noticed that may of them have a note added similar to this one:

overseas version of the GT-X750 requires DFSG non-free iscan-plugin-gt-x750

What does it mean? Why overseas?? Will it work?

Re: ThinkPad R60, no apm

2007-09-11 Thread Vim Visual
Hi Olaf,

the new lenovo laptops, like yours and mine, do not have APM support.
They are ACPI-only machines.
Forget about suspend. It'll take a while yet. Nevertheless, I have an
apmd set to -C and the fans kick in much less than they do on linux.
I have also tried setting   apmd -f /dev/acpi but it doesn't work, of
course, it'd have been too easy :)

I have asked too frequently when suspend will be supported, I don't
want to irritate further the developers. Just be patient. ACPI is not
trivial... but I am sure that when it's fully supported (whatever this
means) it'll be much better supported than in other OS's

 Hi,

 I'm having a minor problem with apm and 4.2 snapshot on a Lenovo ThinkPad R60.

 I noticed that halt -p does not power off.  I read reboot(8), and I have
 powerdown=YES in /etc/rc.shutdown.

 It might be related to apm0 not being detected, dmesg below.  I also
 noticed the error/warning apm: connect error from the boot loader, before
 a kernel gets loaded.  Might be related.

 Loading...
 probing: pc0
 apm: connect error
  mem[628k 3069M a20=on]
 disk: hd0+
  OpenBSD/i386 BOOT 3.01
 boot

 Kernel is 4.2 (GENERIC.MP) #234, snapshot was pulled today.  I did
 enable acpi with config -ef /bsd.mp.  Same problem with 4.1-stable.

 Maybe also related: In 4.2-snapshot sysctl hw.setperf does work, while
 4.1-stable would give me sysctl: hw.setperf: value is not available.


 Any clues to get apm working?

 Thanks, Olaf

I have a box that runs OpenBSD that sshes into my Debian box.  On
OpenBSD, the default colour term is vt220 so when I ssh to debian, TERM
is set to vt220.
   
 
   Anyway, wsvt25 from console works great from openbsd on openbsd. If
   you're on net and freebsd, pcvt25 works fairly well. Logging into
   linux, I generaly use vt220 or vt102.
 
  Yahoo! wsvt25 works just fine obsd to debian, for mutt.  Interestingly,
  it doesn't work so well natively on obsd.  Also, I don't need to set it
  before sshing; standard vt220 on obsd and ssh to debian and set
  TERM=wsvt25 seems to work just fine.

 Just to follow-up.  TERM=screen works well for both OBSD and linux so
 that's now my default screen type in /etc/ttys.

 Problem solved.  Thanks.

 Doug.

 Interesting, because I'm seeking the same. Based on sane's site and
 what was at the local staples, I bought a Canon Lide 25 - however the
 sane support on openbsd didn't work, better yet, if I boot to windows
 to see if the thing is boned or not, trying to install the windows
 driver crashes (I get the demoplay.exe has crashed - do you wanna tell
 microsoft?).

 Needless to say I don't need the aggravation  - the canon is going
 back to the store and based on the reccomendations here I'll look for an
 epson.

lenovo thinkpad x61s support for wireless + sound

2007-09-11 Thread Vim Visual
Hi,

I just wanted to report that today and after gallons of sweat and
blood and some 14 compiled kernels to test the drivers and patches of
Damien Bergamini (iwn0) and Deanna Phillips (azalia) (and correct a
lot of mistakes I made), I finally got my brand new lenovo thinkpad
wireless device (Intel 4965AGN) and sound card (Intel 82801H HD) to
work with OpenBSD -current.

Volume up/ down work perfectly (on terminal, for X it'll be more
tricky, depends on your WM, but mute does work both in X and no-X).

I have seen some people complaining on the difficulty of wireless
management in obsd; I am writing a script now to simplify it and I'll
post it as soon as I have it running.

By the way, the keys for light up/down works just out of the box.

So... don't hesitate and get a new lnovo thinkpad x61s!

Cheers,

Pau Amaro-Seoane

many of you will have already read my last thread about a lenovo x61s.
Almost everything is working (but suspend, this is an only

Hi Peter,

a huge, humongous, tremendous, vast, THANK YOU!

That made it!

I must be blind. I didn't think of that possibility at all... Now I'll
have to compile my own kernel, I guess... b...

Now let's wait for Damien Bergamini The Great to have some time to
finish the support of the wireless 4965AGN chip in wpi(4)

I'll have to investigate a bit more about the sound issue... no sound

And now, for the record, a dmesg for [EMAIL PROTECTED] x61s:

 Actually, you can just config -e after the first boot, enable acpi,
 quit and copy the modified kernel to /bsd.mp, just like it says in the
 FAQ (actually making /bsd a link to /bsd.mp works too and ensures you
 will always be booting the mp kernel)

I did exactly that:

arktomis| sudo config -e -o bsd.mp.new /bsd.mp
OpenBSD 4.2 (GENERIC.MP) #251: Thu Aug 23 10:55:57 MDT 2007
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/GENERIC.MP
Enter 'help' for information
ukc enable acpi
398 acpi0 enabled
ukc quit
Saving modified kernel.

arktomis| sudo mv bsd bsd.original
arktomis| sudo ln -s bsd.mp.new ./bsd


 The only remaining nit I have with my thinkpad is the still-flaky wpi
 firmware which is needed for the 3945ABG to work.  It keeps nodding
 off at random intervals, longer intervals now than earlier, but still.

mmh... I had a laptop with intel pro2200 and with iwi and the firmware
it was working perfectly... well, that's life


 getting sound out of that required

 # mixerctl outputs.lineout=255,255

 or an equivalent line in /etc/mixerctl.conf, plus presssing and
 holding the 'volume up' button for a while.

arktomis| mixerctl outputs.lineout=255,255

Hi again...

I don't know, but I think I am having bad luck with the sound. Look at this:

arktomis| mixerctl -a | grep outpu*
outputs.dac02.source=hdaudio
outputs.sel0c.mute=off
outputs.sel0c=124,124
outputs.sel0d.mute=off
outputs.sel0d=124,124
outputs.green11.mute=off
outputs.green11.boost=off
outputs.unknown12.mute=off
outputs.unknown12.boost=off
outputs.unknown13.mute=off
outputs.unknown13=120
outputs.red14=85,85
outputs.unknown15=85,85
outputs.unknown16.mute=off
outputs.unknown16.dir=input
outputs.pow19.source=mix20
outputs.black1b.mute=off
outputs.black1b=126,126
outputs.red1c.mute=off
outputs.red1c.dir=input
outputs.widget1d.source=mix07
outputs.sel21.mute=off
outputs.sel21=120,120
outputs.sel25=85,85
outputs.widget26.source=red14

I tried to set all of these with a number on it to a higher value. E.g.:

arktomis| mixerctl outputs.sel25=255,255
outputs.sel25: 85,85 - 255,255

And then cat BIGFILE  /dev/sound

whilst playing with the volume up/ mute bottoms

I also made sure that everything in the software is not muted:

 arktomis| mixerctl -a | grep mut
record.adc05.mute=off
record.adc06.mute=off
inputs.mix07.sel22.mut=off
inputs.mix07.sel21.mut=off
inputs.mix0a.dac04.mut=off
inputs.mix0a.sel21.mut=off
inputs.mix0b.sel0f.mut=off
inputs.mix0b.sel21.mut=off
outputs.sel0c.mute=off
outputs.sel0d.mute=off
inputs.beep10.mute=off
outputs.green11.mute=off
outputs.unknown12.mute=off
outputs.unknown13.mute=off
outputs.unknown16.mute=off
outputs.black1b.mute=off
outputs.red1c.mute=off
inputs.mix1e.sel0e.mut=off
inputs.mix1e.sel21.mut=off
inputs.mix20.red14.mut=off
inputs.mix20.sel25.mut=off
outputs.sel21.mute=off
inputs.mix24.sel23.mut=off
inputs.mix24.sel21.mut=off

But still no sound at all...

And in /etc/mixerctl.conf I have

arktomis| cat /etc/mixerctl.conf
outputs.master=200,200
outputs.master.mute=off
outputs.headphones=160,160
outputs.headphones.mute=off

But

arktomis| mixerctl outputs.master=270,270
mixerctl: field outputs.master does not exist

of course...

Again, I must be blind or doing something wrong... but where? Or does
this slightly different chip from Peter's make such a big difference??


Thanks for your patience,


Pau Amaro-Seoane

 surprising), I have

The penguin guys are also having problems at fixing this:

but they somehow succeeded... patching over patched patches... I
wonder how robust this is...

Also:

It's really necessary to leave the modem enabled in the BIOS or the
hda_intel driver will reutrn azx_get_response timeouts which will lead
to a non-working soundchip.

What's the connection between these two things??

lenovo x61s bsd.mp Obsd 4.2 difficulties et al.

2007-08-28 Thread Vim Visual
Hi,

I am having a couple of issues with obsd on the lenovo x61s...
especially the lackage of wireless support, but the driver (Intel
4965AGN) should be ready in 1-2 weeks.

I'd like to ask you whether you see some obvious error.

I installed -current from a snapshot:

uname -a
OpenBSD arktomis.bautzi.de 4.2 GENERIC#374 i386

0) The worst problem is when I boot with bsd.mp... the boot process
freezes and the last lines I get are as shown in this picture:

www.aei.mpg.de/~pau/BSDMP.jpg

dmesg for GENERIC is to be found at

www.aei.mpg.de/~pau/dmesg_x61s.txt

(the last lines come from a digital camera, ignore them)

Now... I tried with a bsd.mp from 4.1 in single-user mode as Dave suggested me
(boot hdawhatever:bsd.mp41 -s), to see what happens. The result?

In the place where it just freezes in 4.2, the damned laptop decided to
reboot... black screen and reboot...

Disgustingly enough, fedora6 live cd recognised the two processors cleanly...

1) halt -p turns the screen black (no shutdown messages)

2) I'm not quite sure the sound is working... look at this

After that I adjusted crontab of root as suggested in the man page...

Any hint regarding the bsd.mp thing?

which sub/notebook + APM?

2007-07-19 Thread Vim Visual

Hi,

I know we have the laptop web page, but it seems to be a bit old. I
know because I posted two entries some months ago and they never
showed up... or maybe the quality was miserable... don't know...
Anyway...

I am looking for a sub/notebook, of ~1.2 kg (2.something maximum),
with a good screen resolution (i.e. better than the ibm thinkpads X
family, [EMAIL PROTECTED]) which supports APM: I am thinking here of
*suspend* specially.

Does anybody have a recommendation? If so, I wonder whether you'd be
so nice as to elaborate also a bit on fan noise and battery life.

Thanks in advance!

acpi suspend?

2007-07-02 Thread Vim Visual

Hi,

I kindly ask in advance not to be stoned after I have asked the
question I am about to ask.

I am a good boy, I buy the CDs, the T-shirts, learn every day a bit
more of OpenBSD and read a couple of man pages before going to sleep

Ok? Now the question...

   How are the chances that suspend is implemented in ACPI for 4.2??

(cowardly hides)

I am trapped in a laptop without APM and I miss (I am a converted
heretic linux user) the possibility of suspending a lot.

Should I go for -current and give it a try?

I _know_ that there has been a LOT of progress recently in ACPI and I
worship Marco and the others for that. Mine is a naive, innocent
question...

Thanks

update of free wireless cards?

2007-06-29 Thread Vim Visual

Hi,

I am about to but a second hand thinkpad x40 which looks pretty good
_and_ has APM support (!!). Of course OpenBSD will be installed on it.

Now, the German ebayer is a nice person and I can actually choose
what's going to be the wireless card!

Until now I have only tried intel chips, so that you have to install
the firmware and everything is working fine. But if I can choose, I'd
like to have a 100% blob-less system. And also to show the vendors
that they have a public!

I have been googling, clustying and reading man pages to find a recent
update of the list of wireless cards which would fulfill this and I
have found out that the wireless devices that either do not require
firmware, or that have runtime firmware that OpenBSD is allowed to
distribute are:

* atu (4) - Atmel AT76C50x USB IEEE 802.11b wireless network device
* ral (4) - Ralink Technology IEEE 802.11a/b/g wireless network device
(2nd gen 802.11 Ralink)
* rum (4) - Ralink Technology USB IEEE 802.11a/b/g wireless network device
* zyd (4) - Zydas ZD1211 USB IEEE 802.11b/g wireless network device

Is this the whole list of blob-less devices?

And another question: How do these devices compare to the intel pro
ones? Are they as powerful?

Thanks for your attention...



Re: update of free wireless cards?

2007-06-29 Thread Vim Visual

Hi Peter,


I have both ral and rum devices here, and we're quite happy with
them.  In my experience at least they are quite reliable.  They are
rather inexpensive too, the USB versions can can usually be had for 50
euros or less, mini-PCIs even less.


Ops, sorry, I was meaning internal devices! I am looking for an
internal wireless card.



Since you mention Intel parts, wpi in my Thinkpad R60 has a tendency
to almost, but not quite, resetting it self at apparently random
intervals, losing the link.  Nothing that can't be handled with a new
ifconfig up mumble plus dhclient mumble, and the recent revisions in
-current is noticeably better, but still a bit irritating.


yes, I also have observed this behaviour in some machines... it's
indeed irritating!


I was at
the point of considering some minor surgery on the Thinkpad to put a
rum mini-pci in there instead, but the Damien Bergamini did some magic
which made the wpi behave a little better.


iwi is not that lucky, I think... but I should shut up because I have
not check it in detail

Thanks for your comments

Re: GRAPE cluster supercomputer + OpenBSD

Hi,

I'm not concerned about the library, I'm almost sure it'll work in

Yes, the OS is not that important, the cluster will not have a public

obsd installed on my laptop to do the data analysis of the results but

GRAPE cluster supercomputer + OpenBSD

2007-04-12 Thread Vim Visual

Hi,

my home institute has bought (for me) a cluster of 4 nodes with the
special-purpose hardware called GRAPE; it's for astrophysical
simulations. The cards (the GRAPEs) just calculate the gravitational
forces and accelerate the calculations a lot. In parallel the cluster
can achieve a peak performance of 0.5 Teraflops.

This is the GRAPE card

http://www.metrix.co.jp/grape6A.html

Now... I'd like to install OpenBSD on the cluster, of course... all I
need is in the OS. But our IT department is not that happy... they
want a debian and I'm very crossed.

According to them, there aren't any drivers for the Raid Controller...
Is that true?

Thanks,

Pau



Re: OpenBSD speed on desktops

2007-02-17 Thread Vim Visual

Agreed. It's not the lawsuit that makes people use Linux instead of the
BSD's; it's the holier-than-thou,
fuck-'em-if-they-dare-question-our-judgement attitude.

Jeff


indeed...

actually, I was curious to see what answers fumione would get

Mine is: I have been using GNU/Linux for years and I have also noticed
that o'bsd is a _bit_ slower on the desktop, sometimes. But no that
slower.

In any case, I'd recommend you that you try to think in a different
way. Don't try to make OpenBSD be like your linux, because it isn't
(it's much better ;) ) Look for other possibilities.

For instance: Have you tried to go back to mozilla? In my case firefox
was behaving very buggy and consuming too much cpu. It's supposed to
be a light-weight version of mozilla but I find that mozilla itself is
much faster than firefox and doesn't consume almost anything (and the
fonts are looking better too)

Let us (at least me) know

Cheers,

Pau

 The port maintainer doesn't have any plans to port the zaptel

 Asterisk has some soundcard channel, which could theoretically
 be used to make a softphone (you can send a dial command from the
 CLI), but I never tried it, it is most likely linux-specific

That's exactly what I am interested in. I looked into the AsteriskTFOT.pdf,
searched for soundcard and sound card and the only related thing I found
was:

WARNING[32174]: chan_oss.c:470 soundcard_init: Unable to open /dev/dsp: No such
file or directory
 == No sound card detected -- console channel will be unavailable
 == Turn off OSS support by adding 'noload=chan_oss.so' in
 /etc/asterisk/modules.conf

and then:

chan_oss.so Provides: channel Console (soundcard required)

Do you know if it's possible to use Asterisk not only to dial, but also to
receive a call (and hear it on the sound card)?

Re: Aironet MPI-350 Wireless

2007-01-29 Thread Vim Visual

Hi Johan and all,

fortunately the seller made the mistake in the web page where I found
the laptop and he wrote that it's a centrino and in the wikipedia you
can read:

To qualify for a Centrino label, vendors must use all three Intel
qualified parts for laptop, otherwise using only the processor and
chipset will carry the Intel Core label instead.

and the card isn't an intel one... I told him and he'll change the
card and install an intel 2200 BG one and pay for the postage...
That's an honest seller for you :)

But I will still need the blobby firmware to make it run...

I was thinking that since the seller is so nice maybe he's got a
blobby-free wlan card lying around somewhere in his shop and I'm sure
he'd change it too.

I have looked in

http://www.openbsd.org/i386.html

to find out which cards are fully supported but it's not clear to me
which of these cards still need 3rd party files. For instance

Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG/2225BG/2915ABG 802.11a/b/g PCI adapters

is on the list but I cannot find any warning or reference to the point
that you need the firmware (well, yes, in the linked man page you'll
find it) but which cards are as good as the intel 2200BG?

Shortly:

Which cards in that list are comparable in quality to the intel 2200BG
but do not require blobs?

thanks!

Pau



Don't return the ThinkPad just yet, you can replace the chip with
something else in the access hatch in the bottom. If not, just use a
PCMCIA or USB wifi adapter. The ThinkPad is a formidable laptop for
running obsd.

fan noise, speedstep

2007-01-24 Thread Vim Visual

Hi,

I am using an ibm t43p and have realised that the fans are spinning
*all* the time. When I was using the same laptop with a debian flavour
I scarcely could hear them spinning.

In dmesg I see

cpu0: unknown Enhanced SpeedStep CPU, msr 0x0612112b0600112b
cpu0: Enhanced SpeedStep 2267 MHz (1388 mV): speeds: 2267, 800 MHz

This unknwon must be the problem... ?? in any case, I have tried
playing around with sysctl this way

tuffstein| sysctl -a hw.cpuspeed
hw.cpuspeed=2262
tuffstein| sudo sysctl -w hw.setperf=50
hw.setperf: 100 - 50
tuffstein| sysctl -a hw.cpuspeed
hw.cpuspeed=2267
tuffstein| sudo sysctl -w hw.setperf=0
hw.setperf: 50 - 0
tuffstein| sysctl -a hw.cpuspeed
hw.cpuspeed=800


But this doesn't help at all... the fans spin still all the time...

Even after suspending the laptop (zzz) and waking it up two hours
later, so that the laptop is very cold, after some 20 sec the fan
starts spinning again... and the laptop is cool, some 15 degrees C

How do I reduce, if not totally eliminate this noise?

Before you ask, yes, I have googled around but I must be very bad at
it because I found nothing but this

http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~dons/x31.html

If you're curious, here you are my dmesg

Just in case of, here you are the steps I follow:

export [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvs
cd /usr; cvs checkout -P src/sys

sudo config -e -o /bsd.new /bsd

OpenBSD 4.0 (GENERIC) #1107: Sat Sep 16 19:15:58 MDT 2006
  [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/GENERIC
  Enter 'help' for information
  ukc enable acpi

  and that's it

  ukc quit
  Kernel not modified

 I was expecting a 385 acpi0 enabled ??!!! find acpi also yields nothing...

The next steps would be...

cd /usr/src/sys/arch/i386/conf
config GENERIC
cd ../compile/GENERIC
make clean  make depend  make
 [...lots of output...]
make install
rm /var/run/dmesg.boot

Any hint?

In any case thanks for you attention,

Pau

Hi,

I enabled acpi and compiled the kernel etc but still acpi is not
working (not configured)

Anyway, my question is whether the possible developers of [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Groklaw artical about the BSD license

yes, the article is somehow misleading...

at this point I would like to ask another question here, in misc;
namely... how do you feel/ what do you think of big companies making
profit out of o'bsd or whatever bsd variant and not giving anything
back for that? Think of, for instance, the MacOSX case...
How would you feel like if o'bsd had another kind of license, for
instance a GPLv3 one?

just curious...

855 chipset resolution + general bad behaviour of an FJS Lifebook P7010 laptop

2006-12-15 Thread Vim Visual

Hi Fred,

thanks for the information about xorg.conf... I was really wondering
how comes xorg can work without .conf It's the first time in my
7-years-unix life that I see this.

Unfortunately your email came too late, after I had already spent some
2 hours configuring per hand xorg.conf... now it's done

In any case I don't understand what is going on because 915resolution
doesn't find out the
mode:

-
915resolution -l | grep 1280x768
-

yields nothing. The compiled c patch (see thread 855 chipset
resolution) is not working either...

Another funny thing is that suddenly today the CPU was very hot and
the fans going crazy. I made a top and

gdm is using 82.57% of the CPU?!??!

I don't know what the problem is... I would like to believe that the
problem is THIS laptop. I have never seen anything like that in the
crashbox, an ibm 43...

And in general everything is about 15% slower than with linux... I
notice that even when deleting lines outside of X. Why is that?

I haven't installed tons of things; just some 12 packages.

Today I installed the gimp and it's crashing all the time

-

zsh: 5968 segmentation fault  gimp


(no, it doesn't have anything to do with zsh... it's the same with ksh)

Another point:

firefox (1.5.0.x) is _crashing_ very often... and I couldn't fix
totally the anti-aliasing thing explained in the faqs

Bouuuf...

No, if you use o'bsd for a server you don't need the gimp, of course!
But I want o'bsd for a desktop and I don't feel like chopping a region
of a png file with vi, even if it'd possible in principle...

all this is very frustrating...

well, wireless is working... but that's a blobish thing... not so happy

I think I'm going to drop it... and it's really VERY frustrating... I
was starting to play with pf and it's just amazing

Cheers,

Pau



The Xorg X server doesn't need an xorg.conf to run - it probes, and try
to work out the right answer on startup.  An xorg.conf would be useful
if the result server doesn't fulfill your requirements for some reason,
ie your hardware is incorrectly setup, or you want to run an unusual set up.

Re: help! 855 chipset resolution

2006-12-14 Thread Vim Visual

Hi...

I'm rather stubborn and I've installed o'bsd with an only slice.

It remembers me when I took the decision of removing the windows
partition and only use linux... it has shown to really pay off. i've
learnt a lot. Now it's the turn for o'bsd

I have followed your advice, woodchuck and it compiles fine but it
doesn't want to run.

Logging as su and without X running I get

1280pgm 30 1280 768
Unable to open /dev/mem: Operation not permitted

This sounds like a security thing, maybe the securelevel

In any case, 915resolution is not working either:

Running it as root and without X:


# 915resolution -l
Intel 800/900 Series VBIOS Hack : version 0.5.2

Unable to open the BIOS file: Operation not permitted


I know that it must be added to /etc/rc.securelevel


$ cat /etc/rc.securelevel

# XXX
# XXX it is not really acceptable to put this value in a configuration

# XXX 5 files instead of 2 (the kernel and init)
# XXX

securelevel=1

echo -n 'starting pre-securelevel daemons:'

#
# Place local actions here.
#
# 915resolution

if [ -x /usr/local/sbin/915resolution ]; then
   echo -n ' 915resolution'
   /usr/local/sbin/915resolution 3d 1920 1440  /dev/null


echo '.'


3d 1920 1440 is one mode I don't want to use; you have to overwrite
one of them like that
I guessed that one because I have a logbook from my experimentations
with the same laptop
and Linux + 915resolution. In linux it was working like that

any hint?

Cheers,

Pau



Try compiling the code like this:

cc -D__NetBSD__ -o 1280pgm  1280patch-845g-855gm-865g.c -li386

that compiles without error,  It will produce an executable named
1280pgm.  Gods know what it will do when you run it, though.

(OpenBSD is kinda-sorta like NetBSD.)

See man i386_iopl before running it, about setting your sysctls
properly.  (They probably are already set OK if you are running X).

Let us know if smoke rises from your screen.

Re: help! 855 chipset resolution

2006-12-13 Thread Vim Visual

Hi Dimitry and Gerhard,

first of all i apologise but I really was/am in panic... as I said,
this is my production laptop, the small little toy in front of which I
spend some ~10 hours a day!

I have spent quite a few days to learn the fundamentals of o'bsd on a
crashbox (this one, an ibm t43p) and was very happy with the result; I
even bought the absolute book and read quite a few chapters...

I cannot afford to have a non-functional (I know this is an
exaggerated statement) production laptop for longer than, say, a few
hours. As a matter of fact I am reinstalling GNU/Linux right now
because I HAVE to work this evening (the installation and set up takes
~20 min)

Anyway...

1- Why should I give gcc the path to io.h? (and where is it, btw, a
locate will be random in my case because I do not know what io.h is)
In GNU/Linux I don't have to do it and seemingly the folks of
FreeBSD/NetBSD neither. Does it depend on the gcc version?

2- Another BIG problem for me is that apm does not work. I NEED apm
-S. Again, this is an exaggerated statement but I am used to suspend
to RAM the laptop some ~5 times a day because I have to run from one
office to another because there's a meeting or whatever

I am really disappointed. I was looking so much forward to moving to o'bsd...

And the main problem is that I love my laptop: 1280x768 on a 10.2
crispy screen (I use an external screen in the office but for the
train, cafe etc it's perfect), 80GB disk, 1GB RAM, doesn't get hot,
1.2 kg (!!)

I really cannot make it without that little thing and I WANT o'bsd on
it but as I said some 3 weeks ago

1- I need wlan connection (guess it'll work just as it's working on
this one, same chipset)
2- I need the full screen resolution
3- I need apm working

If you guys say it's going to work and it was a mere problem of
compilation I'll sure give it a second try for the resolution... but
what do you say regarding apm???

This is the FreeBSD site where you can find the patch (sorry about
that, I didn't know)

This might be due to you using it incorrectly, since it works fine for
quite a lot of people. :)  In cases like this, always post the *exact*
command line and options that you tried, and include *complete* logs of
any error messages.


yes, you're right, I was too nervous, sorry

But I don't think it was my problem. I know 915resolution and have
used it with GNU/Linux without a worry...

I am a o'bsd n00b but not a GNU/Linux newbie :)

Thanks in any case for your quick fedback and sorry about the
hysterical reaction...

Hi Dimitry,


You should always verify that everything works, before taking any
machine into production. :)


well, I cannot think of a better verification than installing the OS
and look around... googling around for all the system can be rather
tedious


As others have already said, a separate
partition for OpenBSD is a good way to get started.


yes, I am going to do that...


If you don't know what the problem is, you should not be the one trying
to fix it. :)


I'm not trying to fix it, that's why I ask :)


As far as can be seen from your previously posted dmesg, your laptop
doesn't support apm at all, only acpi.  Please complain to your laptop
manufacturer about it.  We see this all the time with newer machines,
vendors don't bother to test anything but Windows these days.


it's not really a new machine... it's some 3 years old...


If all goes well, acpi support will probably make it into OpenBSD 4.1,
and there are already some snapshots with partial acpi support on the
ftp site.  But please don't count on this to work perfectly, it's still
in development.


I'm not the one who's going to play around with snapshots... remember?
I'm an o'bsd n000b, even if my colleagues regard me as being a
linux guru... hahaha... I know I have a looong way to go and o'bsd is
the right one for me, to LEARN


It's an Intel 2200BG, which works, if you accept Intel's weird licensing
policies for their firmware.


yes, I know... and sent quite a few emails to the intel people


As I asked you before: post the exact command lines you were using with
915resolution, and the exact error messages which prevented it from
working.


it's impossible now... the o'bsd installation is not any more there
and I can't remember the error message by heart. That was a mistake
from my part


We would rather have a chance to fix the 915resolution port, if it
somehow didn't work on your machine, than try to get some weird
Linux-only program running.


it's not weird; it's C and it's not only for Linux... it's working
properly in FreeBSD and NetBSD, as I said before


Try looking for a BIOS update from your vendor, complain to your vendor


that's where you can help me now... I've never done a BIOS update.
I've looked now and found this

http://support.fujitsu-siemens.com/Download/ShowDescription.asp?SoftwareGUID=20310743-5098-440B-BECB-93EA1BCF3CAAClassID=d3c7e8ab-04ec-4a50-9c81-809daa777384

but they explicitely say it's only for w$... on the other hand it is
an iso image... should I try to burn it and boot from the cd to see
what happens? On the other hand they do not comment anything regarding
apm there... or maybe yes... it's too obscure for me, sorry...
I forgot to mention that I don't have any w$ partition btw. I've been
automatically deleting all w$ partitions for 7 years. Or should I try
it with linux wine? :) hahaha...


about dropping support for established standards, or try a snapshot with
acpi support enabled (but DON'T expect everything to work in this
case!).


no, I will not... I know quite well where my limits are... I prefer to
go for the dual boot and wait for o'bsd 4.1

Does anybody know for sure that they're going to implement acpi in 4.1?

And since I am already asking... is gnome to be updated in the next
release? it's 2.10 in the binaries but the gnome project is already in
2.16-17 and it's a bit of a difference...

I could ask the IT department of my institute to give me an IBM x41 or
something similar and give back this fujitsu siemens but really, it is
just wonderful... 1.2 kg, comes with two batteries and I've sometimes
worked for longer than SIX hours with them... doesn't get hot, comes
with a removable DVD player, big hard disk, etc etc...

Anyway, thanks for the very useful comments (not being sarcastic
here!). This is (are) a very nice emailing list.

Re: help! 855 chipset resolution

2006-12-13 Thread Vim Visual

Hi,

ok... it's taken me blood and sweat but I have succeeded at resizing
(per hand) the linux disk without losing data (!). Qtparted just
didn't work at all. I don't know how but I have managed to have now
three partitions

1st partition, ~35GB, with ext3
2nd partition, ~35GB no format
3rd partition swap linux (the rest)

Now I have booted from the obsd40.iso cd but I am messed up... ahem...

When I try to follow the instructions for the dual boot I get lost in
the CHS nomenclature... I have taken a picture of the table:

www.aei.mpg.de/~pau/partitions.png

when I try to go for the disklabel thing it says the root slice just
created, of 300MB, overlaps with b, swap, which I gave 2GB... but I
don't know why... and I also don't know what's that extended DOS
thing??!

Would it be also possible to use the linux swap partition for both
systems, o'bsd and linux?

Could you please be so nice as to write in a dummy way? something like
add a, delete b etc?

I have the feeling that I have messed up the CHS thing and would be
VEERY grateful if you dummified the process...

I have copied these lines from the installation guide and some of the
numbers do not correspond to my disk... but I'd be grateful if you
gave me the answers...

Partition id ('0' to disable)  [0 - FF]: [0] (? for help) a6
 Do you wish to edit in CHS mode? [n] y
 BIOS Starting cylinder [0 - 9728]: [0] Here for instance I set
4659... because I see that linux goes until 4658
 BIOS Starting head [0 - 239]: [0] Enter (these numbers are from the
inst. guide)
 BIOS Starting sector [1 - 63]: [0] 1
 BIOS Ending cylinder [0 - 2585]: [0] 2585
 BIOS Ending head [0 - 239]: [0] 239
 BIOS Ending sector [1 - 63]: [0] 63

I am reading the man, I swear! and the installation guide... I guess
this is the result of many years of nice GUI applets... :(
I am afraid that the o'bsd partition should go to the first part of
the table... mmmh...
Otherwise I can do it the other way round... install obsd and then
linux... in this direction I know my way...

setting locale on terminal

2006-12-11 Thread Vim Visual

Hi,

from my recent emails you have probably guessed that I am jumping from
a debian system (have been GNU/Linux user for about ten years) into
the -wonderful- world of o'bsd (4.0) on an i386.

I am using for that the man pages, the absolute o'bsd book (which is
strangely nice to read, i would have never thought anything like that
of an informatics book) and the unofficial faqs.

I am almost done with the migration and very happy. I still have to
understand _correctly_ pf, of course.

However there's something that annoys me a lot: locale

In my zshrc I have set

export LC_NUMERIC=C
export LC_ALL=ca_ES.ISO8859-1
export LC_CTYPE=ca_ES.ISO8859-1

This worked perfectly on the debian system

My mother tongue is Catalan and I would like my system to be set up to
that language. It seems that for instance date is not behaving the
way I would like (it's in English) and also perl is complaining all
the time:

-
melanos| perl -v
perl: warning: Setting locale failed.
perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings:
   LC_ALL = ca_ES.ISO8859-1,
   LC_NUMERIC = C,
   LC_CTYPE = ca_ES.ISO8859-1,
   LANG = ca_ES.ISO8859-1
   are supported and installed on your system.
perl: warning: Falling back to the standard locale (C).

This is perl, v5.8.8 built for i386-openbsd
-

This is very annoying because a number of things a written in perl;
e.g. pkg_add, etc

If I have a look at /usr/share/locale I find

melanos| ls /usr/share/locale | grep ca
ca_ES.ISO8859-1
ca_ES.ISO8859-15

I.e. they *exist*

Now; on a debian system I'd do the following:

dpkg-reconfigure localeconf and then als root set-language-env -E, or
something similar

What should I do in o'bsd? Any hint?

The gnome X enviroment recognizes my  /etc/profile though, which is set to

export LANG=ca_ES.ISO8859-15

All X programmes are in Catalan...

But I need the terminal in Catalan!

I have thousands of scripts which I'd have to modify because the
output of things like date are now different...

Thanks,

Pau

In any case you can try yourself. Download the static binary and then
use linux emulation with the following libraries:

libICE.so.6
libSM.so.6
libX11.so.6
libXau.so.6

libdl.so.2
libdrm.so.2
libexpat.so.0
libexpat.so.1
libfontconfig.so.1
libfreetype.so.6
libgcc_s.so.1
libm.so.6
libpthread.so.0
librt.so.1
libstdc++.so.5

I can send you the libraries if you wish (makes 2MB) but don't want to
overload the mailing list with... spam :)

in any case I would like to listen to what people think of using skype
on an o'bsd system. Let's make the axiom that skype is not
malware/spyware etc (as they state on their page). We have to blindly
trust them because it's CLOSED; they give you a binary.

Now... what happens when you start a conversation over skype? Does
this make your system more vulnerable? attackable?

I'm just learning...

i810-series video BIOS + 855GM resolution

2006-12-11 Thread Vim Visual

Hi,

I plan to install o'bsd 4.0 on a fujitsu siemens laptop which has a
screen of 1280x768 pixels. With GNU/Linux this was always a pain and I
had to manually patch the VBIOS because otherwise only 1024x768 are
recognised.

I would like to ask around whether somebody has such a chipset and
what's the workaround in o'bsd.

In GNU/linux I am using all the time the patch provided by deyzarc. See:

http://www.leog.net/fujp_forum/topic.asp?ARCHIVE=trueTOPIC_ID=5371

Seemingly this has been tested on FreeBSD successfully and also
NetBSD. But I am uncertain regading o'bsd.

Cheers,

I know this 915resolution (there's also a binary package btw) but I
don't like it because I very often use a external screen and when
using 915resolution somehow X doesn't get the required resolution for
it... in GNU/Linux... but since this is all about X and the o'bsd
developers unfortunately didn't rewrite X, I guess it should be the
same problem...

Has anybody tested that patch?

Re: firefox + flash

Hi,

just for completeness, I was saying in the openbsd newbies forum that
I found the problem somewhere. I post it here just for your
information...

This has been happening for about everything that requires curl
since it was upgraded to shared lib version 4. I believe it's
because the package on FTP is version 7.15.4, but the one in
ports is 7.15.5.

Setting PKG_PATH to one of the ftp mirrors and
FETCH_PACKAGES=Yes in your environment may take care of it.

If not, try unsetting FETCH_PACKAGES.

In any case I am going to wait until the release of the gnash
binary... which I really really think should be included in o'bsd 4.1

Gosh, I don't understand anything. I am sorry that I am overwhelming
your inboxes today but

1- I tried to make the nwid visible (it's possible to make it invisible)

2- I also tried to switch off the wep key

and _nothing_

But the wlan CAN scan the networks! When I type ifconfig -M iwi0 I get
the usual neighbour's access points and mine! It's only that protocol
doesn't get a DHCPOFFER

I am writing this email from a debian laptop connected to my network
and the funny thing is that the wlan chip is the same one...

any hint?

I want to totally move to O'bsd but wlan connection is crucial for me
and it's the only thing that's stopping me to install obsd on the
production laptop, I'm bored of the crashbox, now I want to make the
Move

Cheers,

Pau

I said I was writing blindly because the laptop was at home but, of
course, after an ifconfig iwi0 up I get the correct flag there... UP

   As I wrote in the previous email, I have pkg_add'ed the damien firmware.
  
   this means that I did
  
   sudo pkg_add 
http://damien.bergamini.free.fr/packages/openbsd/iwi-firmware-3.0.tgz
  
   the files
  
   /etc/firmware/iwi-license
   /etc/firmware/iwi-boot
   /etc/firmware/iwi-bss
   /etc/firmware/iwi-ibss
   /etc/firmware/iwi-monitor
   /etc/firmware/iwi-ucode-bss
   /etc/firmware/iwi-ucode-ibss
   /etc/firmware/iwi-ucode-monitor
  
   are there and dmesg | grep iwi tells me that the adpater has been
   recognized during the boot process; what's more, I get *something*
   like
  
   # ifconfig iwi0
   iwi0: flags=8802BROADCAST,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST mtu 1500
   address: xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx
   nwid 
   media: IEEE802.11 autoselect
   status: no network
 
  Maybe
  # ifconfig iwi0 up
  ?
 
  
   but I am missing the powersave line. I don't know whether this is
   related to the problem.
  
   It cannot be a hardware problem because the crashbox with the debian
   variant ubuntu recognised the chip and I was able to connect to my
   nwid
  
   I am wondering whether this has something to do with the encryption
   bit rate... I see that the maximum is 104-bit and I don't remember
   which rate I chose (the wlan modem is at home, I am in the office now)
  
   Mmmh... maybe I should try to switch off the wep and see what happens...

Fred, would you like to marry me?

Oh, my! I always forget that I am already married! Too bad!

Thanks!

That did it! But it requiered a reboot, which I don't like much, but
the network is there and I can connect!

Does this mean that I have to reboot everytime I change the connection
point? Well it's not perfect but it's the last problem I have solved
(with your help!) now

LET'S MOVE TO OPENBSD

Enough crashboxes! Now let's go for the production thing!

Thanks a LOT to everybody!

gracias!

Hi Pau,

have you tried putting something like:

 dhcp NONE NONE NONE \
 nwid pepitogrillo nwkey eltrenloco

in your hostname.iwi0 file and then using:

/bin/sh -x /etc/netstart iwi0

to restart the interface?

I have had an issue with an ipw0 Intel Pro 2100 that would only clear
its wifi connection on reboot, with the appropriate hostname.if just
uping and downing the interface was not clearing the nwkey.

HTH
