You don't learn anything from step by step advices. Step by step advices create stupid users. You just have to read through the fine documentation. /dev/audio can only be opened by one application at a time, in your case you want aucat to open it so that it can multiplex stuff for you. If aucat says "Device busy" then that means that another application is currently using the audio device, kill that application. After you did that you just have to run "aucat -l" and you're good to go, play ...

I received ship notice this morning. So, after all, Oct 1st (-ish) did end up to be the release date(?). --patrick

Every release, we have tried to ship the CDs before the actual release date so that a large fraction of our users get them just bnfore the release date. We may have to open up the FTP servers slightly before November, to satisfy the users who purchased CDs and who now find themselves without a full set of 'packages'.. we will try to figure out what day. But we won't open up the ftp servers today. I want a sizeable percentage of purchasers to receive their product first. So we'll see how ...

Anyone tried this? I'm looking at the 9260-4i model. Thanks! -Steve S.

I haven't tried the Supermicro ones but have tried HP ML350 G6 (nehalem xeon/5520) which worked ok. Quite a few devices "not configured" but no problems in tests (which included a bulk ports build).

Hi, I'm considering to purchase Supermicro servers with one or two Nehalem CPUs and a 5520 chipset. Has anyone already tried these, and/or how much breakage should I expect? My reading of /plus.html suggests that it may be too early to jump onto this train, but if some devs want a few weeks play with it, remotely, that may be possible (please contact me off-list). TIA! -- Kind regards, --Toni++

Hi, Is it possible to automate the process of running fsck -y after a power or other type of failure, in cases the automatic file system check fails? Thanks in advance. Regards, Jose -- An Excellent Credit Score is 750 See Yours in Just 2 Easy Steps!

as usually, i absolutely agree with you Otto. however. please all the people in the room raise their hands who have the faintest idea about what 95% of the questions that fsck is going to ask them on a seriously borked fs mean. my hat goes off to them. here's the thing: even though every single diagnostic message fsck may produce is documented in /usr/share/doc/smm/03.fsck_ffs i dont see how these questions help at all. what i mean is, there is nothing to compare the diagnostic data to ...

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, We have two openbsd4.5 boxes acting as redundant gateway and firewall. They are having problem with route6d. Problem is that we can't receive any routes from upstream, but upstream can update our advertisement. This was running fine on openbsd4.3 for over a year, just recently upgraded to 4.5 from scratch. We keep exact same settings as previous. The following are some of the debugging output: Does the message "*IPv6 packet ...

because you are not using aucat as a server? by default, psi uses the 'play' command from the sox package to play sounds (though sox isn't a dependency of the package ... oops). the play command can be used with an aucat server. many ports/packages can, actually. -- jakemsr@sdf.lonestar.org SDF Public Access UNIX System - http://sdf.lonestar.org

Hope english list would be more useful, than russian. I need to play a few audio files simultaneously. For example, when I listen music, Psi should be able to play event sound.

The audio(4) device can't multiplex for you, so you have to send all your sound output to a user-space program (aucat), which will multiplex it for you and forward it to /dev/audio . The specific option to aucat you need is '-l' tl;dr running 'aucat -l' will solve your problem.

a terrible option, especially considering support for esd -- jakemsr@sdf.lonestar.org SDF Public Access UNIX System - http://sdf.lonestar.org

On all existing OpenBSD version HAL is not used by X.Org. so it won't change anything. But OpenBSD will need some kind of device hotplug event notification mechanism in the future, to support hot-plugging of video cards or complex input devices. -- Matthieu Herrb

Just so you know, there was an ftp-proxy(8) program included in 3.6. If you bothered to install the man pages back when you installed 3.6 five years ago, you will find instructions for that version in the man pages: $ man 8 ftp-proxy Please use the man page, as the version used today is significantly different. If you did -not- install the man36.tgz file set, you can find the 3.6 version of the man page on line: http://preview.tinyurl.com/yal5vry

Hello, Take a look at : http://www.openbsd.org/faq/pf/ftp.html Maybe it can help !

tarpitted. The reply-to: address is provided for those who feel compelled to That would probably cause issues if the gunzip operation failed - you'd end up with an empty nixspam file. I'd do the same but check the return value of the gunzip operation before overwriting the nixspam file. I'd also streamline the script a bit: #!/bin/sh cd /root/data rm -f nixspam if ftp http://www.openbsd.org/spamd/nixspam.gz; then if gunzip nixspam.gz; then cut -d ' ' -f 1 nixspam ...

I see inconsistent results on failover via "route -n monitor" I have 13 carp interfaces, carp0 - carp12. I was running on FW2 (master) and failed back to FW1 via carpdemote on FW1. I saw 5 RTM_INFO messages on FW1 and 24 RTM_IFINFO messages on FW2. On failover from FW1 to FW2 I saw 7 RTM_IFINFO messages and on FW2 I saw only one. -Steve S.
