| Mark Kettenis | multi-card X: hardware neeeded
Hi Folks,
I'm working on makeing multi-card X work again on OpenBSD. I'm making
progress, but in order to finish this project, I could really use some
hardware. What I need is a PCI graphics card (genuine PCI, not AGP or
PCIe) that is well supported by X, preferable something supported by
the ati/radeon driver or the mach64 driver. If you have something
like that collecting dust, please mail me off-list.
Thanks,
Mark

This reply is late. my apologies beforehand.
He shouldn't boot from an extended partition. Windows can go on a primary.
He can make the system rescue disks. OpenBSD could be next. Linux would be last. If he needs swap then it would be: windows, install linux with swap, add dphys swapfile and edit out the swap from /etc/fstab, use openbsd to utilize the space and eliminate swap, and then edit grub to boot all three.
Again, my apologies for veering off of the subject of OpenBSD.

Dear All,
I would like to ask Thinkpad or Lenovo machine owners on the mailing

for windows bundled with newly bought machines in the US or Canada.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shortest_job_next
"Shortest job next scheduling is rarely used outside of specialized
environments because it requires accurate estimations of the runtime of
all processes that are waiting to execute."
From what I've read the scheduler tries to keep a statistic about how
much CPU time a job used during its slice and then predicts the future
behaviour.
This also has some ideas about ...

If I am not mistaking, SJF is usually desired while dealing of
realtime processes. Those processes have a deadline associated by
definition, that is the reason being realtime.

Hi,
I'm reading Operating System Concepts (7th Edition) , Written by
Abraham , Peter & Greg.
In chapter 5.3 , it talks about a schedule algorithm: SJF
SJF means shortest jobs schedules firstly.
To compare different process , thy use a process running time.
e.g
P1 takes 6 secs to run
P2 takes 3 seconds
P3 takes 10 secs
Then we should put those tasks in array like this:
P2 => P1 => P3
That looks much reasonable , but ...

| Luis Useche | Re: Generic Discuss about CPU resource scheduling
I don't think there is a way the operating system can detect how long is
going to last some particular process. Not even the compiler can do this.
This makes me remember of Turing's proof where there is no way to compute if
a program will terminate at some point or not.
Just my two cents.
Luis.

| Otto Moerbeek | Re: Generic Discuss about CPU resource scheduling
You cannot tell in general, that's a basic result from CS. But you can
measure previous runs and do predictions based on that, in some cases
at least. I hope I'm not answering a homework assignment...

| Tony Abernethy | Re: Generic Discuss about CPU resource scheduling
In general you cannot predict, however there are many (long) jobs with
very predictable times to completion: sorts, merges, most anything that
processes thousands of records in one batch operation.
(and ties up various resources for the duration --- thein is the gotcha)
I would not trust counting instructions, loops, subroutine calls as
being usefully predictive of execution time.
The fun thing about scheduling algorithms is that any one of them
is usually theoretically capable of giving the ...

fwiw - I have Windows XP, Linux, and OpenBSD running on one machine
using two drives, but it should be possible with one.
I would recommend installing Windows first, or if already installed, shrink
the partition using Ranish partition manager or Parted Magic.
Create two new primary partitions and an extended partition.
Install OpenBSD on primary partition 2, GRUB on a small primary partition 3,
and Linux on the extended partition at the end of the disk.
Use the chainloader ...

Yes, please recompile a kernel after changing the value of athn_debug
in /usr/src/sys/dev/ic/athn.c to 10:
int athn_debug = 0;

I'm curious what you mean by "work fine for me." I have a T400 and
followed your suggestion. My machine suspends and resumes most of the
time with X and the network up and running. However, once resumed, one
of the processors is in ~100% interupt state and reboot doesn't work
properly. It will sync disks and look as though it powers down (black
screen) but the system's power light is still on and the machine does
not resond to anything but a hard shutdown. Also, after one
suspend/resume, it ...
