Does it panic if you use the glass console instead of the serial console? Miod

Hi Vim, I know you're not looking for a washing machine and vacuum cleaner, but perhaps you should look at the Brother and HP MFC models. The HP 7650 has an auto-document feeder (ADF) which was a must have for me. Because of the ADF it can scan both sides with the built in duplexer. (It can also print duplex.) The nice part about the scanner is it can be configured (via web interface) to scan to an SMB file share. I'm running Samba on OpenBSD 4.1 and have it scan straight to the ...

Did you use TERM=screen on both ends of the ssh, i.e. on OBSD before ssh

You use screen as well :-P

I have this problem on my dual PIII-550 system, but only in dual-CPU mode. When only one CPU is enabled, Opera surfs like a charm... Looks like there are more problems with shared memory, but I'm unsure.

Well, you could use "screen" ;-) It's in the ports (/usr/ports/misc/screen) or you could add it with pkg_add. Dave

Thanks Vim, Deanna and Damien! I just bought an x61 last week and was wondering what to do about wireless. Now I know. I'll install -current ASAP and let you know how it goes. Cheers! Aaron P.S. Also looking forward to my 4.2 goodies!

Greg, I thought I would mention that I now have a theory about how I can fix this problem. I took a look again at the APSFilter generated printcap entries, and I believe I've located a problem in the way it operates. :-) In order to send the printer the right format of file, it relies on the `if' field, which is only used for rm == localhost or lp being used instead. I haven't had a chance to test this hypothesis yet, so I'll provide some more feedback when I do, but this might be a good thing to ...

having read and understood that, you should know that for most people -current is more than good enough to work with. I am always running -current in my production system and do not see any major (nor minor) problem. Well, if you want to try the veeeery lastest drivers of X then you'll have to ask for them explicitly and do it all by yourself (compile, CVS etc) instead of "just" downloading the kernel from a snapshot obsd ftp server. I know that comparisons are stupid but I am an ex linux user ...

Hello all! I have installed BitTorrent-4.2.2 on my 3.9-box. With this i would like to start file sharing on a console, logout, login later and reattach to the console of the BitTorrent-4.2.2 session. AFAIK this is done in most Linux-distros using the command screen, but how can I do it in BSD? Any help appreciated <--------------------------------------------> Jon Sjvstedt

Hi, there's a poll about which "linux" (please read here UNIX) you'd like to see preinstalled/supported on the lenovos thinkpads http://lenovoblogs.com/insidethebox/?p=98 You'll notice that Mark Kohut (Lenovo's worldwide analyst) cannot tell the difference between linux and BSD (both freebsd and openbsd fall in the category of "linux") but, in any case, maybe you feel like clicking the OpenBSD entry... I did Cheers, Pau Amaro-Seoane

it;s just a plain scsi box. all three drives show up as plain devices on the host scsi bus. thus in conjunction w/ netra t1 one gets 5-drives (or 8 w/ two of those d130 thingies) on one scsi bus. quite good for a software raid thingie... cu -- paranoic mickey (my employers have changed but, the name has remained)

Could this lead to an implementation of a driver that is "less evil", I mean that does not bypass kernel in order to mess around with registers etc? Or is this the design state of all video cards on the market? -- An OpenBSD user... and that's all you need to know =) Please, send private emails to leonardovcr@gmail.com

I'm very new to OBSD and BSDs in general, coming from Debian Linux (which now does raid1 from the installer). I notice that both OBSD and NetBSD use raidframe and ccd. The NetBSD FAQ has a chapter on setting up raidframe for root raid1. Perhaps it would give some direction. I do not know if it is the correct approach for OBSD. Doug.

Hello, I have the same problem with my opera. I'm not sure what it is but it seem to be related to flash, it usually happen when im trying to view myspace related page ( for music ) . I thought it could be sound related too..maybe it's trying to access sound device when it already in use by another program and it make opera hangs ? all this are suppositions though ... im a newbie so if someone else have a clever and more articulated response to that it would be welcomed. ...

Pau, Thanks for your note... There's one driver that I do want from that, and that's the ATI driver for the X1600 chipsets. However, at the time, I don't really have the ability to deal with random bugs, as I'm already up to my eyeballs in other things. ;-) Believe it or not, I due notice some stability differences between -CURRENT and -STABLE on the whole. -- ((name "Aaron Hsu") (email/xmpp "arcfide@sacrificumdeo.net") (phone "703-597-7656") (site "http://www.aaronhsu.com"))

that one is just a disk box/psu (maybe also ses, I don't remember and mine had to go on a customer Windows box in a hurry so I can't check) you need a separate raid controller (mpi?), or use softraid or raidframe.

Use screen as well: pkg_add screen -- Cezary Morga

Same here only it does not happen only with flash sites. Sometimes, just starting opera and going to google.com is enough to hang... Never looked into it... -- Antoine

Hello, I've searched hi and low for hours on how to setup my system of a RAID 1 and basically what it comes down to is ccd and/or Raid Frame. I've found helpful docs on using some of the commands and where to put my configurations but nothing seems complete enough for me to figure it out. I have OpenBSD 4.1 installed on one disk and I have an exact duplicate disk where i want to mirror my installation to incase of disk failure. If this needs to be setup during install I'm willing ...

Reyk and I have decided to show something from the private handling of this Atheros copyright violation issue. It has been like pulling teeth since (most) Linux wireless guys and the SFLC do not wish to admit fault. I think that the Linux wireless guys should really think hard about this problem, how they look, and the legal risks they place upon the future of their source code bodies. There are lessons to be learned here -- be cautious because there is no such thing this "relicensing" meme ...

Hello, I'm using a lot of MiniPCI ral cards in my work with OpenBSD, such as: dmesg | g ral ral0 at pci0 dev 16 function 0 "Ralink RT2561S" rev 0x00: irq 10, address 00:1a:4d:28:e0:47 ral0: MAC/BBP RT2561C, RF RT2527 In this case I have Subj question: what is the top speed, that I can get from such stuff?

If you're running recent snapshots then you are running -CURRENT and as Theo mentions above: "...but beware since -current is now ahead of what the upcoming release will be, and that may not be what you want -- almost a thousand commits have already happened to it." -RELEASE would have been sent to the presses awhile back and development continues on from 4.2. You're past that point. The options are to continue with -CURRENT or start fresh with -RELEASE. Greg -- Ticketmaster and ...

Here is the new dmesg for current. So far the boot process is much faster and do not hang anymore. I am doing install on three more boxes now and will do a bunch of reboot cycles to see the end results. Still some acpi not configure in the dmesg, but so far does look better. Also, note this is on the latest bios and ilom as well as the latest SAS drivers as well. Not the one that comes directly from Sun. ILOM: 1.1.8 BIOS: 39, not the standard 34 version. SAS: 1.16.40, not the ...
