Gstreamer-1.0, uaudio(4) and sndio(7) with raw devices.

2017-03-01 Thread percy piper
It appears that Gstreamer-1.0 can't access raw uaudio(4) devices (rsnd/n). I'm struggling to debug further so wanted to ask if this is expected to work or a known limitation of OpenBSD's sndio(7) implementation for gstreamer? This is where I've got to so far: Gstreamer-1.0 works fine with

uvideo(4) problems in recent snaps?

2014-11-18 Thread percy piper
Has anyone noticed problems with uvideo(4) in recent snapshots? The issue I'm seeing is reproducible with video(1) - just run it and wait. After some seconds or minutes no new frames arrive and video(1) is waiting on poll(2). Larger frame sizes seem to decrease the time needed to achieve this

I'd say twice per message processed is unnecessarily verbose but I assume you want it that way for a reason. It is a trivial niggle and probably irritates only me :-) Thanks for looking Gilles. Percy. On 17 July 2012 19:04, Gilles Chehade gil...@poolp.org wrote: mh, is it really that verbose

Smtpd.conf(5) %a and %u

2012-07-07 Thread percy piper
Hi all. Smtpd.conf(5) states that %a expands to the user before alias resolution and %u after. Is it the other way round? I am probably missing something but on the latest i386 snap it seems %a and %u do the opposite to what smtpd.conf(5) claims? Can anyone clarify? Many thanks Percy

For the archives sake, we finally solved this. pppoe(4) never requests an mru during lcp negotiation (and acks any reasonable mru offered). In our case we were being offered an mru (1492) by the BT AC (BRAS) which we ack'd. With the mru agreed at both ends of the link our auth with the BT bras

Hi, we finally went live today so a small summary of how it went. pppoe(4) did not work. We need to authenticate with chap first, then pap. pppoe(4) forces the exclusive use of either one or the other. This was an unexpected gotcha and I will look at the code to see what can be done. pppoe(8)

OpenBSD as router for UK FTTC?

Is anyone using OpenBSD as the 'front-end' router on a UK fibre (FTTC) broadband circuit? We are due to start trialling a 100Mb FTTC broadband and hope to use an OpenBSD box as the first stage router (i.e. to replace what the Home Hub would normally do). We know the presentation (from BT) is

Restore from SCSI tape on recent i386 snapshot
