Hi Thank you!!! I had the feeling that the problem is in the Makefile.OpenBSD, but didn't know how to fix it. Doing what you suggested below solved the problem and I'm now able to build frickin proxy. Now I have to make it work ... TIA Paolo

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 dme...

Last message regarding OpenBSD Berlin Gabriel set up a mailing list. if you are interested, join it: Mailing list for OpenBSD in Berlin : ============================= --> http://www.abc.se/mailman/listinfo/openbsd-berlin <-- Cheers, Pau PS: Gabriel, did you get my emails re last meeting?

Sadly, the only problem is that you will not be able to use that much memory here.

Maybe they're being created in [somewhere]/obj. Look there; try deleting [somewhere]/obj and recompile. Something is probably goofy in the Makefile. Something is all "fricked" up with "frickin" beyond the developer's subadolescent vocabulary choices. (The word is mildly offensive in English.) Try "find /home/paolo/src/frickin | grep grehandler.o" to find where those .o's are "frickin" going. Maybe the developer intended to use "frickin" gmake. Dave -- "America ... might bec...

Hi Lars I know about the limitation and their implications, but unfortunately I don't control the other peer and have to live with what I'm given. TIA Paolo

i have met Mr residue a couple of times as well. i think i even asked about it on the list. also with disks/devices that contain msdos partitions. i think once it was clearly when i moved my external disk, and perhaps the cable moved in a wrong way, i catalogued it as a hw issue. a couple of times it happened when i finished copying stuff to my iriver t10 and tried to unmount it. but the files were there... i only write this so that we have something in the archives about it. sorry i can...

It just shows how these laws are designed to protect Microsoft at the expense of everyone else. Microsoft has been very effective over the past decades at lobbying congress to "enclose the commons" of computer science. There is a bill before Congress now to roll back patent protection, notably in the field of software. American users of OpenBSD might want to follow this struggle, which is running into massive opposition from non-comp-sci patent holders. -- Jack J. Woehr Director of Developm...

Why doesn't he run the monitoring software in a virtual machine?

We should all care, because there's actually an important question buried in this: to what extent is it acceptable for 'the government' to demand that someone make substantial or expensive changes in their life merely for its convenience? Note that he isn't complaining about being required to run monitoring software, just about being required to run Windows rather than his accustomed OS (presumably because Windows is the only OS that the government's preferred monitoring software will run on). ...

But, as I understand the issue, this is _not_ part of his specified punishment -- it's just a side-effect of the manner in which the government wants to impose a portion of his punishment. There appears to be no real reason for it other than the government's convenience. You appear to be arguing that someone convicted of a crime should lose rights under the law beyond those which the law specifies as being taken away. Is this a correct inference? Whether or not you hold that opinion, I certai...

You may be right; all the information I have is what's shown up in this thread, and I've no idea whether anyone has implemented suitable monitoring software for Linux (or exactly how the 'monitoring' requirement was arrived at). But this incident does raise the question of what sort of presumably unintended costs 'the government' should be allowed to impose on _anyone_ at its whim -- and _that_ issue is one which should interest all of us (lest we find ourselves at its sharp end). Dave -- ...

Good point.

Greetings all... We bought a SK-9S22 (pci-x) card a while ago, and even though 'man msk' listed it as working on 4.0, it actually didn't work. So, now we are thinking about a SK-9E22 (pci-e) for another box, and we think we should ask if this model is working on 4.1 before actually spending any money on it. Also, if anybody can recommend any 4-port gigabit NIC for openbsd, we would appreciate it Thanks in advance, g.

Hi, Wow! This is great news. What I would really like to see is SMP for sparc64. Hopefully this has become easier now. -- Best Regards Edd --------------------------------------------------- http://students.dec.bournemouth.ac.uk/ebarrett

This is really nice and maybe we can expect better hardware support on SPARCs. This is probobly also good since I hope this puts pressure on other hardware manufacturers to open up their documentation. Maybe dlg@ can shed some more light on what is comming out of this from a OpenBSD perspective? BR dunceor

Thanks Diana! Chuck is a superstar. To this day I can think of no one who as made me laugh more while at the same time teaching me important technical details. There are countless great Chuck stories, from Chuck telling his conservative Wall Street boss who complained about his regular work attire, "shirt, shoes, sober -pick two," to all the hilarious jokes he sent freely as private emails to others in need of help. Chuck always remembered to keep things fun, even the things which he alr...

You can't with base install since it doesn't support xauth(it's in isakmpd's todo I think), but vpnc works good enough for my needs, which look similar to yours. I need to reset the connection nightly because unreliable ike rekeying, but, other than that, It's stable. http://www.unix-ag.uni-kl.de/~massar/vpnc/ Best regards, Samuel

Why are you making excuses for the people who provide binary blobs? It doesn't matter at all what the owner's _intent_ is, when the practical consequence is that OS developers have to put in layers of hacks for bugs that they cannot themselves fix. -d

I've been watching this thread, perhaps my comments are worth something, or are amusing. Executive summary: track -current. Make releases in step with OpenBSD. That sentence contains its own solution: do not maintain old versions. How would one maintain old versions if the underlying OS is frozen? How do you answer customers who ask why they can't run the up-to-date version of OpenBSD? If your salesman contacted me, saying I had to *downgrade* my OS to Open 3.3 to run your product, I would ad...

Battery life is not too good, but can be extended quite easily at the expense of extra space - same voltage, connector (incl polarity) as Sony PSP so there are plenty of battery packs, solar chargers etc that will work. Given the obvious general limitations (not much ram, not much disk), the things I most dislike are: always running from the internal battery (if you flatten it you can't just plug in another source and go, you need to let it recharge a bit first), and the limited precision of the...

I wrote a huge mail, but essentially: `what Jacob said'. I think that if you manage to convince the right people that a network of smaller nodes has advantages (higher availability, better scalability, lower `TCO' - whatever), OpenBSD - with low cost, good and cheap support, and very competitive performance - becomes a very attractive option. On the other hand, if you really need a 16-core machine with 32 GB of memory, installing OpenBSD gets you cool dmesg pr0n but not a really useful configu...

And this is, i think, the main point for my boss and his "not understanding" about the advantages of OpenBSD over HP-UX. But...i have hope yet...he does not "close the door" to the OpenBSD possibility. He wants probes...only i need to find a heavy argument. For example...the developers that port OpenBSD to HPPA and HP300 platforms....maybe they have benchmarks between this machines running HP-UX and/or OpenBSD. It This is a good point too. Is it the performance of OpenBSD running on Sun co...
