Re: prob: dynamic xterm window and icon titles [OpenBSD 4.2]
Hello, After sourcing .profile file inside X with .Xdefaults, the PS1 and xterm title settings were run. (It runs .profile once and sets the PS1 variable to be used inside X) But the issue of dynamic xterm title remains as such. It seems the PS1 (in ksh) is not able to pass the special character the way writer intended hence not producing desired consequences. Can someone tell why setting of PS1 in this way is not producing desired behavior? (desired: dynamic xterm title which changes as i...

Re: prob: dynamic xterm window and icon titles [OpenBSD 4.2]
You probably somehow entered the characters wrongly. See /etc/ksh.kshrc for a working example (you can just source it straight from .profile if it already does what you need).

On Tue, 18 Dec 2007 18:06:45 -0800 Hi, Many thanks. The compilation went smoothly apart from one thing. Would you be kind to check the examples? Let's start with rexxtry.rex.

BSDTalk preview: Peter Hansteen interview
Dear BSDTalk listeners, As you know, Will "the nicest guy in the business" Backman has been busy with a new job and Eastern snow storms. Here is a preview of a BSDTalk interview I did with Peter Hansteen just after OpenCon about pf and his new book on the subject: http://home.nuug.no/~peter/BSDTalk-PeterHansteen.ogg http://home.nuug.no/~peter/BSDTalk-PeterHansteen.mp3 Peter makes a pretty good case for IP Tables users that there is an easier way. Enjoy, Michael Dexter on behalf of BSDTalk ...

Suggestion for hostname.if(5)
Hi, In hostname.if(5), two IPv6 addresses are used in a sample: inet6 alias fec0::1 64 inet6 alias fec0::2 64 anycast The class fec0::/10 refers to the site-local prefix which has been deprecated in September 2004. It's replaced by unique local addresses (fc00::/7 - RFC 4193). The sample should be: inet6 alias fd00::1 64 inet6 alias fd00::2 64 anycast Sincerely, Aurilien.

dhclient ignoring DHCPOFFERS?

wrong dst field in /var/run/isakmpd.result
Hi, still hunting down a problem with my ipsec vpn connection terminating, I found inconsistencies in /var/run/isakmpd.result when I do a echo S >/var/run/isakmpd.fifo Occationally I find an entry where the destination address and the SA name do not match. The dst address displayed actually belongs to a diffent SA. I these cases, I only have phase 2 SAs for this particular vpn in the dump of SAs. netstat -rnfencap or ipsecctl -ssa do not show this vpn's sa any more. pi...

"The Book of PF" exists, physical copies documented
Dear friends, I have just taken delivery of my box of /The Book of PF/[1] author's copies, and I'm finding I'm a bit at a loss for words when it comes to describing the feeling. The thing exists. And it feels great to finally see the thing for real. (OK, I cheated a bit and had five copies printed locally for OpenCON[2], but these are the real ones, slightly different binding) We didn't manage to release the book the same date as OpenBSD 4.2 (yes, that was the original plan), but the thing has...

On a lcd screen, short of hi-def video's and gaming, it's hard for the eye to see meaningful difference between 16 and 24 bit depth. In some case 15 bit depth works better on lcds. -----Original Message----- From: Rob Lytle <sporadic.elayer@gmail.com> To: misc@openbsd.org Subject: Re: KDE presents a distorted screen or quits in the middle of starting up Date: Fri, 14 Dec 2007 09:56:47 -0800 Thanks for the advice. I will try 16 bits. I am at 24 by default. But this is not a KDE issue. ...

4.2-current hangs on "setting tty flags" if a PCMCIA card is...
Hi, Till recently I had kernel panics upon inserting a PCMCIA card (Sierra Wireless AirCard 555) in the cardslot. There are two PRs' opened for this, #5239, and #5577. I synced the src sometime last week, and with the new kernel I no longer hit the panic, but the boot process hangs at "Starting tty flags". Without the card, boot goes through fine. I searched the web for a possible solution, and came across this FUQ on monkey.org http://monkey.org/openbsd/FUQ/other/ttyflags.html, which talks about ...

I can connect to the localhost db but it reports "server status: stop" while the server is actually running.

Re: Strange error when I remove the CD-ROM device [SOLVED]
The box is a SuperMicro 6015B-Ni with XDBU mobo; if I change (in BIOS): Main > Native Mode Operation > Auto for Main > Native Mode Operation > Serial ATA, all works fine. So, OpenBSD doesn't support this BIOS option and you have to specificate it if you use SATA disk (as my own case). I hope it will be useful for someone. -- Thanks, Jordi Espasa Clofent

Probably doesn't help, but I prefer to program in Ada. It enforces and does some self-checking both at compile-time and at runtime. Unfortunatly, the only freely-available (i.e. that you don't have to pay for) is GPL. Doug.
