These represent problem reports covering all versions including\nexperimental development code and obsolete releases.\n Bugs can be in one of several states: o - open A problem report has been submitted, no sanity checking performed. a - analyzed The problem is understood and a solution is being sought. f - feedback Further work requires additional information from the originator or the community - possibly confirmation of the effectiveness of a proposed solution. p - patched A patch has been committed, but some issues (MFC and / or confirmation from originator) are still open. r - repocopy The resolution of the problem report is dependent on a repocopy operation within the CVS repository which is awaiting completion. s - suspended The problem is not being worked on, due to lack of information or resources. This is a prime candidate for somebody who is looking for a project to do. If the problem cannot be solved at all, it will be closed, rather than suspended. c - closed A problem report is closed when any changes have been integrated, documented, and tested -- or when fixing the problem is abandoned.

Thank you David From zb at ispid.com.pl Sun Jul 13 12:28:17 2008 From: zb at ispid.com.pl (Zbigniew Baniewski) Date: Sun Jul 13 12:28:25 2008 Subject: "FreeBSD Handbook": 5.4 X11 Configuration Message-ID: <20080713120134.GA5599@sarge.my.own.domain.no-net> Hallo, I would to suggest to add information about configuration using RandR. I had much trouble lately finding out, why my well-tested configuration isn't working anymore - until I've learned, that newer versions of video drivers were designed especially to utilize RandR during video configuration, and because of this some functionality (f.e. "panned virtual screen") are (temporarily?) lost. It should be stressed, that RandR isn't just a tool to check-out available video-modes, but the quite new way to configure video, which supposingly required serious changes in video drivers. http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Xorg_RandR_1.2 And f.e. http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg/2008-March/034166.html #v+ The radeon driver got xrandr 1.2 support. Previous versions of the driver assumed one monitor per driver instance while with xrandr you may have several monitors. With xrandr it is much more important to get mode information about each monitor since you may have two or more monitors connected with vastly different capabilities. The previous version of the driver more or less always assumed a monitor was connected and forced whatever mode you specified. You can still do this, but as you see, the configuration has changed a bit.

Right. If you look more carefully, you will notice that this is an excerpt from a book. To see the rest of the book you would need to buy it (or, preferably, the newer edition, "The Design and Implementation of the FreeBSD Operating System"). > I am looking for information about FreeBSD signals, where should I > start? Definitely start by reading "man signal" if you haven't already. There is also some material in the Developer's Handbook that you should look at before purchasing printed books.

My understanding is that the term 'tunable' is used to refer to sysctl variables that can only be set at boot - i.e. are read-only at run-time. How about this?: The FreeBSD kernel limits the number of processes that may exist at one time. The default limit is based on the kern.maxusers sysctl(8) variable. kern.maxusers also affects various other in-kernel limits, such as network buffers (see this earlier question). If your machine is heavily loaded, you probably want to increase kern.maxusers. This will increase these other system limits in addition to the maximum number of processes. To adjust the kern.maxusers value, see the File/Process Limits section of the Handbook. (While that section refers to open files, the same limits apply to processes.) If your machine is lightly loaded and you are simply running a very large number of processes, you can adjust this with the kern.maxproc tunable. The value of this sysctl ´variable¡ is set at boot time and can only be changed by placing an appropriate entry in /boot/loader.conf and rebooting. If a large number of processes need to be run by a single user, kern.maxprocperuid should also be modified. Its maximum value should be one less than the kern.maxproc value because one system program, init(8), must always be running. For more information about setting tunables see the loader.conf(5) manual page. To make a sysctl change permanent place the proper value in /etc/sysctl.conf. More information about system tuning with sysctl(8) can be found at the Tuning with sysctl section of the Handbook. I'm not sure about the veracity of the "kern.maxprocperuid should be one less than kern.maxproc" statement. Does anyone know about this?

However, `tunable' is a technical term in this context, referring to a kernel variable that can be set at boot time but not changed after the system is running -- this particular one resizes several static kernel data structures.

These represent problem reports covering all versions including\nexperimental development code and obsolete releases.\n Bugs can be in one of several states: o - open A problem report has been submitted, no sanity checking performed. a - analyzed The problem is understood and a solution is being sought. f - feedback Further work requires additional information from the originator or the community - possibly confirmation of the effectiveness of a proposed solution. p - patched A patch has been committed, but some issues (MFC and / or confirmation from originator) are still open. r - repocopy The resolution of the problem report is dependent on a repocopy operation within the CVS repository which is awaiting completion. s - suspended The problem is not being worked on, due to lack of information or resources. This is a prime candidate for somebody who is looking for a project to do. If the problem cannot be solved at all, it will be closed, rather than suspended. c - closed A problem report is closed when any changes have been integrated, documented, and tested -- or when fixing the problem is abandoned.

Thanks Jeremy! http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=121721 From peter at taronga.com Tue Jul 15 01:23:51 2008 From: peter at taronga.com (Peter da Silva) Date: Tue Jul 15 01:24:19 2008 Subject: The origin of the "#!" hack and selecting the shell Message-ID: <3046E1F6-F847-4A6E-953F-7FDD6F50CBE9@taronga.com> In I read: "Later, a hack was made for sh(1) to examine the first two characters, and if they were :\n, then it invoked the csh(1) shell instead (we believe SCO first made this hack)." I'm pretty sure that nobody ever used ":\n" to indicate the C shell. This hack originated at Berkeley, when the current version of UNIX was still V6. Before the Berkeley psh (Pascal shell) and csh (C shell) were developed, there wasn't any need for these hacks... there was only one shell and it was /bin/sh. The V6 shell used the ":" (label) command for comments, while csh used "#". The first character of the file was checked by csh(1) and if it was a pound sign it used csh to run the script, otherwise it defaulted to the bourne shell. The "#!" hack (treating the string "#!" as a 16-bit magic number) came later, and was derived from this hack. At one point a Comp Center admin (I won't mention who) went through all the shell scripts on all the Comp Center machines and made them start with a copyright notice that looked something like "# Copyright (C) YYYY Regents of the University of California" which had the effect of breaking all the scripts for anyone who was using the C shell. Anyway, this was all happening in 1978 and 1979, and the first Xenix ports didn't start sneaking out until 1982, so it's unlikely that SCO had done anything like this first. :) From mjguzik at gmail.com Tue Jul 15 09:40:04 2008 From: mjguzik at gmail.com (Mateusz Guzik) Date: Tue Jul 15 09:40:20 2008 Subject: docs/125630: [patch] modstat(2) contains outdated union modspecific Message-ID: <200807150937.m6F9b2IW069908@www.freebsd.org> >Number: 125630 >Category: docs >Synopsis: [patch] modstat(2) contains outdated union modspecific >Confidential: no >Severity: non-critical >Priority: low >Responsible: freebsd-doc >State: open >Quarter: >Keywords: >Date-Required: >Class: doc-bug >Submitter-Id: current-users >Arrival-Date: Tue Jul 15 09:40:03 UTC 2008 >Closed-Date: >Last-Modified: >Originator: Mateusz Guzik >Release: 8.0-CURRENT >Organization: >Environment: FreeBSD eternal 8.0-CURRENT FreeBSD 8.0-CURRENT #17: Tue Jul 15 02:29:03 CEST 2008 f@eternal:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/ETERNAL i386 >Description: modstat(2): typedef union modspecific { int intval; u_int u_intval; long longval; u_long u_longval; } modspecific_t; /usr/include/sys/module.h: typedef union modspecific { int intval; u_int uintval; long longval; u_long ulongval; } modspecific_t; >How-To-Repeat: >Fix: Patch attached with submission follows: --- lib/libc/sys/modstat.2.orig 2008-07-15 11:29:21.000000000 +0200 +++ lib/libc/sys/modstat.2 2008-07-15 11:31:34.000000000 +0200 @@ -53,13 +53,13 @@ int id; modspecific_t data; }; typedef union modspecific { int intval; - u_int u_intval; + u_int uintval; long longval; - u_long u_longval; + u_long ulongval; } modspecific_t; .Ed .Pp .Bl -tag -width XXXaddress .It version >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: From danger at FreeBSD.org Tue Jul 15 10:07:20 2008 From: danger at FreeBSD.org (danger@FreeBSD.org) Date: Tue Jul 15 10:07:27 2008 Subject: docs/125630: [patch] modstat(2) contains outdated union modspecific Message-ID: <200807151007.m6FA7Kpb072724@freefall.freebsd.org> Synopsis: [patch] modstat(2) contains outdated union modspecific Responsible-Changed-From-To: freebsd-doc->danger Responsible-Changed-By: danger Responsible-Changed-When: Tue Jul 15 10:07:10 UTC 2008 Responsible-Changed-Why: Take http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=125630 From trhodes at FreeBSD.org Tue Jul 15 13:00:11 2008 From: trhodes at FreeBSD.org (Tom Rhodes) Date: Tue Jul 15 13:00:17 2008 Subject: docs/107432: Handbook's default partitioning schema is out-of-date Message-ID: <200807151300.m6FD0B8K089077@freefall.freebsd.org> The following reply was made to PR docs/107432; it has been noted by GNATS.

Chapter 23 refers to concepts that beginners usually will not grasp - and at that point they possibly don't care. Chapter 23 belongs to the "administration" part of the handbook. Most people start their FreeBSD journey by downloading a -RELEASE CD and then reading the first few chapters of the handbook, articles and tutorials and possibly other printed books. At this point, this kind of info may be confusing: What could the terms current, stable, source, kernel, buildworld, mergemaster mean for a beginner? Not much probably, as he is simply concentrated on getting the system up and running the way he wants it. Later on, after earning some experience, he can get to this chapter and decide for himself if he wishes to track current or stable and getting deeper knowledge on the FreeBSD development model as well.

Many people choose to stay with -RELEASE (especially on servers), others run -STABLE on their desktops or when -RELEASE has a problem with their hardware. People who are actively developing (low level) stuff usually run CURRENT. I certainly know of people who compile CURRENT daily... Creating a custom kernel is a relatively easy task, once you grasp the basics, but compiling the rest of the system is something that a lot of people may never need. Enthusiasts will do it anyway, just to learn how :) I suggest you give -STABLE a try if you are so inclined, it is a good learning experience.

These represent problem reports covering all versions including\nexperimental development code and obsolete releases.\n Bugs can be in one of several states: o - open A problem report has been submitted, no sanity checking performed. a - analyzed The problem is understood and a solution is being sought. f - feedback Further work requires additional information from the originator or the community - possibly confirmation of the effectiveness of a proposed solution. p - patched A patch has been committed, but some issues (MFC and / or confirmation from originator) are still open. r - repocopy The resolution of the problem report is dependent on a repocopy operation within the CVS repository which is awaiting completion. s - suspended The problem is not being worked on, due to lack of information or resources. This is a prime candidate for somebody who is looking for a project to do. If the problem cannot be solved at all, it will be closed, rather than suspended. c - closed A problem report is closed when any changes have been integrated, documented, and tested -- or when fixing the problem is abandoned.

Refinance today. Bank of America - Mortgage Bank of America can help. There are several reasons to refinance, and saving money is at the top of the list. If you're currently in an adjustable rate mortgage (ARM), you can lock in a fixed rate mortgage before the fixed portion of your ARM expires and/or rates go up. Or, if you currently have a fixed rate mortgage at a higher rate, you can refinance at a lower fixed rate. Refinancing doesn't need to be complicated or confusing. I'll guide you step-by-step through the process, answer all your questions, and help you find the best home financing solution that is best to fit your needs. I appreciate your busines and value your referrals; so if you or someone you know is ready to consider refinance possibilties, please contact me. Credit and collateral subject to approval. Terms and conditions apply. Some restrictions may apply. See Bank of America for details. Programs, rates, terms and conditions are subject to change without notice.

OSHA is bringing additional inspectors to conduct proactive inspections of construction sites. Additionally, ongoing inspections will continue under existing local emphasis programs, or as a result of complaints, referrals or accidents. "There is no one - among regulators, employers, employees, unions and trade associations - who will accept these lost lives as the byproduct of work in a dangerous industry," said Louis Ricca Jr. OSHA's regional administrator. OSHA operates a vigorous enforcement program, conducting more than 39,000 inspections in fiscal year 2007 and exceeding its inspection goals in each of the last eight years. In fiscal year 2007, OSHA found nearly 89,000 violations of its standards and regulations. New standards were effective in March and more are scheduled in August & November 08 and even more in 2009. These standards include Training, Signage & Safety Programs. Every Contractor should have at least 1 supervisor with the OSHA 30 Hr Certification and the foreman or lower management should have at least the OSHA 10 Hr.

Message-ID: <1217123408.20577.27.camel@etna.vulcan.net> Hello list, First of all, I am sorry if this is the wrong list for this message. I was looking for something like freebsd-legal, but couldn't find one. I am a part of a small group of people working on some documentation, mostly related to programming. Much of it is not even related to FreeBSD at all. We have been looking through documentation licenses, and all decided that we like the FreeBSD one, because it's simple and straight-forward. We are not lawyers. We just want a simple license that grants people the right to use the documentation and to modify it. But, for certain reasons we are not able to use DocBook SGML (not that I have anything against it). Instead we will use a combination of Latex and Open Document Format (ODF). This leads me to a few questions that I hope somebody can answer. I have Googled around quite a bit, but haven't really been able to find any conclusive answers. 1. If I modify the license text to read for instance "Latex" instead of DocBook SGML, is it valid to still call the license FreeBSD Documentation License, or do I need to avoid that name? 2. Regarding the ODF documents: is it valid to consider documents written in a tool like OpenOffice.org a "source" format? 3. Suppose we go one step further and change the copyright notice to state the author's name instead of "FreeBSD Project" as well as ".. PROVIDED BY THE FREEBSD DOCUMENTATION PROJECT" to .. PROVIDED BY ", is it still valid to call the license "FreeBSD Documentation License"? I guess what I'm trying to find out is if the documentation license is "re-usable" in the same way that the BSD license is usable outside of the BSD Project itself. Does this make sense? I have zero legal background. If this is totally off-topic, could somebody point me to where I can get more information? I'm not currently on the list, so could I also be CCed on any reply?

One thing in advance: I do not think there is such a thing called "FreeBSD Documentation License". It is still the BSD (software) license that we all know and like, only it says "source form" of documents instead of source code, and "compiled forms" instead of compiled software. So really, it was just minimally changed to accomodate the documentation project. (it is not like the case of GPL vs. GFDL, the GFDL is not just a minimally changed GPL, it was written specifically for documentation from the start) On Sun, Jul 27, 2008 at 01:50:08AM +0000, Lorenzo E.

Well, as said above, there is no "FreeBSD Documentation License" anyway, but I think that if you change it, it is no longer the original, so you need to rename it. Note also Point 1 of the license, this prohibits changes to that text without permission, so if you change it, it will become a new license. (but that is all right, you are free to create a new license with mostly the same terms as the ones used for the FreeBSD docs.) > 2. Regarding the ODF documents: is it valid to consider documents > written in a tool like OpenOffice.org a "source" format? Well, they are in source and presentation format at the same time, because people can use them either way. But I would not call eg and ODF document a "compiled" format, because that just does not fit. For latex, there is no such a problem obviously. > 3. Suppose we go one step further and change the copyright notice to > state the author's name instead of "FreeBSD Project" as well as ".. > PROVIDED BY THE FREEBSD DOCUMENTATION PROJECT" to .. PROVIDED BY > ", is it still valid to call the license "FreeBSD Documentation > License"? Well, you would need to do that anyway, since it is not the FreeBSD Project that provides your files, but your group. So it is necessary to do that change. As for the naming, see above. > I guess what I'm trying to find out is if the documentation license is > "re-usable" in the same way that the BSD license is usable outside of > the BSD Project itself.

If you haven't already, you might want also check out the Creative Commons licenses, they fit documentation more naturally than adapted software licenses. Also, it is fairly easy to create a CC license for your project, also for non-lawyers.

Tcl has been removed from the base distribution, so doesn't really serve as a good example of contributed software any more (obsoletes docs/50735) 4. Mention the growing use of FREEBSD-Xlist files for contrib software 5. Clarify about shared library bumps. Note that this section really could do with mention and example of versioned libraries, I'm not able to contribute that. Also, somebody who knows how the CDDL fits with FreeBSD needs to update the "encumbered" section to either show that it is treated like GPL software, or that it isn't.

These represent problem reports covering all versions including\nexperimental development code and obsolete releases.\n Bugs can be in one of several states: o - open A problem report has been submitted, no sanity checking performed. a - analyzed The problem is understood and a solution is being sought. f - feedback Further work requires additional information from the originator or the community - possibly confirmation of the effectiveness of a proposed solution. p - patched A patch has been committed, but some issues (MFC and / or confirmation from originator) are still open. r - repocopy The resolution of the problem report is dependent on a repocopy operation within the CVS repository which is awaiting completion. s - suspended The problem is not being worked on, due to lack of information or resources. This is a prime candidate for somebody who is looking for a project to do. If the problem cannot be solved at all, it will be closed, rather than suspended. c - closed A problem report is closed when any changes have been integrated, documented, and tested -- or when fixing the problem is abandoned.

I haven't used KDE in a while, but starting kdm from /etc/ttys has always been the standard method. In fact, you can start other login managers (i.e. slim) from there.

I was hoping that the doc team would consider posting our newsletter announcement on the project's website under the "Latest News" section, like you have done in the past. The newsletter usually generates more donations as it shows people how we are helping the FreeBSD project and community. We currently are very behind in our fundraising efforts. But, we seem to be getting more grant requests from the community. By putting us on your website helps put the word out on how we are helping FreeBSD. I will also forward our project proposal announcement to you. That would be another news item that we'd like to get out to the community. Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns about my request.

It should be removed. There's almost nothing in it that's applicable either to modern hardware or to modern versions of FreeBSD, and the things that are (chapter 4.1) are better explained on Wikipedia. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

Lately I consult newbie about slices and partitions in FreeBSD. In the "An Illustration from the Files of Bill and Fred's Exceptional Adventures" we read that "When Bill re-ordered the SCSI BIOS so that he could boot from SCSI unit four, he was only fooling himself. FreeBSD was still running on SCSI unit zero". But early we read: "older (zero) SCSI drive is reporting numerous soft errors". Question: if FreeBSD boot from errored SCSI and works with it, why OS works safely? This drive is unstable. Therefore nothing change. Or not? Thanks for answer! Best Regards from Russia!

Making the front page only pick X entries and not entries from X days would be a great project for someone (else)...

Hah yes, I am pretty sure I have sent a similar mail to doc@ several years ago. It chooses events from the last N days, not the last N events. So when we have multiple events on days the list can get quite long. It sounds pretty easy but the xslt is a bit trickier than you would think and I also didn't solve it the last time I tried. - Murray From gavin at FreeBSD.org Thu Jul 31 18:30:02 2008 From: gavin at FreeBSD.org (Gavin Atkinson) Date: Thu Jul 31 18:30:08 2008 Subject: docs/126146: [patch] Updates to the developer-handbook: remove section on DMA Message-ID: <200807311820.m6VIKQtL078781@buffy.york.ac.uk> >Number: 126146 >Category: docs >Synopsis: [patch] Updates to the developer-handbook: remove section on DMA >Confidential: no >Severity: non-critical >Priority: low >Responsible: freebsd-doc >State: open >Quarter: >Keywords: >Date-Required: >Class: doc-bug >Submitter-Id: current-users >Arrival-Date: Thu Jul 31 18:30:01 UTC 2008 >Closed-Date: >Last-Modified: >Originator: Gavin Atkinson >Release: FreeBSD 7.0-STABLE amd64 >Organization: >Environment: System: FreeBSD buffy.york.ac.uk 7.0-STABLE FreeBSD 7.0-STABLE #3: Fri Jun 20 09:21:51 UTC 2008 root@buffy.york.ac.uk:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC amd64 >Description: The chapter on DMA in the developers-handbook is no longer valid, and should be deleted.
