I'm not sure it's really interesting cause newbies.html is not a page that would push people to adopt FreeBSD (just have a look at it). The current version with "Learn More" is more appropriate giving some interesting informations regarding FreeBSD (it's what people should get at first when they come for the very first time on the page). When someone arrive on the first page he mostly sees the "3 links" only, the rest is for the person who spends more time on the page, so it's important to keep at least "Learn More" and "Get FreeBSD Now". Regarding the dilemma to choose between "New to FreeBSD" and "Make a Donation" maybe we should think about the need to have a "Home" link on the first page and having shortcuts to Handbook and FAQ since they are provided in the Documentation menu which should help us to free some space. -- Marc From simon at FreeBSD.org Sat Jul 4 09:52:38 2009 From: simon at FreeBSD.org (Simon L.

I like the idea of the dropdown menu's but IMO need more polishing - they look rather 'raw' compared to the rest of the website now due to the very square boxes etc. It should also be thought out a lot what belongs in each menu etc. E.g. the deveopers handbook and porters handbook link is IMO misplaced as it should be under documentation rather than developers menu. Also developers handbook is so out of date I don't think we should be promoting it this much without an update to it. A direct link to cvs/svnweb would be much more useful IMO. BTW. the foundation part could have a direct link to their donations page as a submenu item. > You replaced the "Learn More" link with the "New to FreeBSD" one > (pointing to newbies.html).

FWIW, I agree with this. And as I have said before, I strongly opose adding the stuff to the front page without removing something else (in this case the 'donation button' is new). -- Simon L.

Well I took the "New to FreeBSD?" link away for now (well...I moved it to the drop-down menu of "About" section where it is listed as "Introduction"). As we had several requests to create a Donation link with a more prominent placement, I believe it is now better than what we had before. The latest proposal can be found at http://people.freebsd.org/~danger/FreeBSD/ Now all the sub-pages should have the same new drop-drown menu. I have tested it with several browsers and the results are following: IE6 - drop down does not work, bullets are not displayed. Besides that the page looks okay IE7+, Firefox 3.0+, Chrome - works fine (dropdown menu as well as bullets) Opera - dropdown menu works but the bullets are not displayed. Not a big deal. -- S pozdravom / Best regards Daniel Gerzo, FreeBSD committer From blackend at FreeBSD.org Sat Jul 4 13:08:57 2009 From: blackend at FreeBSD.org (Marc Fonvieille) Date: Sat Jul 4 13:09:09 2009 Subject: top navigation menu In-Reply-To: <4A4F349A.6000708@FreeBSD.org> References: <4A4E27BE.9020909@FreeBSD.org> <4A4E56AE.50701@FreeBSD.org> <20090704075351.GA1095@gothic.blackend.org> <20090704095236.GA1097@arthur.nitro.dk> <4A4F349A.6000708@FreeBSD.org> Message-ID: <20090704130908.GA1094@gothic.blackend.org> On Sat, Jul 04, 2009 at 12:53:14PM +0200, Daniel Gerzo wrote: [...] > > The latest proposal can be found at > http://people.freebsd.org/~danger/FreeBSD/ > The whole thing is good for me. > Now all the sub-pages should have the same new drop-drown menu.

Is there any way to use more of those large white margins at the left and right of every page? It seems like the pages are artificially constrained to some smaller size. Perhaps this has been discussed and decided long ago for reasons that are not readily apparent. Thanks for working to continue to improve the website!

I just tried it in Firefox where the bullet points between the items show up - I think that's a regression as compared to the old vertical bars which are much less 'visually intrusive'. I don't really see the point with that change? I still think it must be possible to make it look a bit less "raw" (perhaps rounded boxes or something like that), but I think that can be done later, especially since I have no concreate suggets on improving that, if we can find someone with visual clue. Other than that (and the mouse over thing we talked about on IRC) I don't see any reason not to commit it. -- Simon L.

Therefore I decided to switch to bullets, which IMO look pretty nice in "modern" browsers and in IE6 they are not displayed at all, so a pretty good alternative. However, if you guys think the bullets look too 'visually intrusive', I am fine to switch back to gray bars (actually I already did to create tie IE6 screenshot, but it's a matter of two lines in css to swich back again :)) BTW the diff is at http://people.freebsd.org/~danger/menu.diff [1] http://danger.rulez.sk/ie6.png -- S pozdravom / Best regards Daniel Gerzo, FreeBSD committer From blackend at FreeBSD.org Sun Jul 5 19:17:18 2009 From: blackend at FreeBSD.org (Marc Fonvieille) Date: Sun Jul 5 19:17:25 2009 Subject: top navigation menu In-Reply-To: <4A509D65.4040303@FreeBSD.org> References: <4A4E27BE.9020909@FreeBSD.org> <4A4E56AE.50701@FreeBSD.org> <20090704075351.GA1095@gothic.blackend.org> <20090704095236.GA1097@arthur.nitro.dk> <4A4F349A.6000708@FreeBSD.org> <20090704130908.GA1094@gothic.blackend.org> <4A4F6E63.2030906@FreeBSD.org> <4A507BD0.8000509@FreeBSD.org> <20090705112238.GB1120@arthur.nitro.dk> <4A509D65.4040303@FreeBSD.org> Message-ID: <20090705191731.GB1104@gothic.blackend.org> On Sun, Jul 05, 2009 at 02:32:37PM +0200, Daniel Gerzo wrote: > Simon L.

I'm not a great fan of things jumping out, so I can't say that I am overly excited about javascript menus. But don't let that hold you back. If you can "polish" the menus as Simon noted, then it's probably fine. The bullets stand out a bit too much, IMO, too. But "bullets vs. bars" is another case of bikeshed coloring, so it's not terribly important either. I am ambivalent about the "New to FreeBSD" vs. "Make Donation". They are both important, and it is a bit difficult to decide which one we should push more aggressively.

There are instances where specific versions are mentioned. (One particular chapter that does this is the jail(8) chapter.) When there is something "version specific", it will be noted, otherwise it can be pretty well assumed all supported FreeBSD releases fall under the criteria of the documentation. -- Glen Barber From Oliver at eworld.hk.cn Mon Jul 6 02:53:57 2009 From: Oliver at eworld.hk.cn (Oliver) Date: Mon Jul 6 02:54:04 2009 Subject: Freebsd---Intellectual Property Rights & Trademark Notice ( TO CEO & Principal ) Message-ID: <200907061019003753523@eworld.hk.cn> Dear President&CEO, We are a domain name registration and dispute organization in Asia, which mainly deal with the global companies' domain name registration and internet intellectual property right protection. Currently, we have a pretty important issue needing to confirm with your company. On July 5, 2009, we received an application formally. One company named " HTBM Holdings Inc." wanted to applied for the domain names" freebsd.asia,etc." and Internet Keyword "freebsd" through our body. Now we are handling with the registration of these domain names and find that the keyword of these domain names and internet trademark is identical with your company's. So we have to confirm with you at two points: 1. If your company consign HTBM company to register these domain names and internet keyword, we will send application form to them and help them finish the registration at once. 2. If your company have nothing to do with HTBM company, they maybe have other purposes to register these domain names and internet keyword. We haven't finished the registration of HTBM company yet, and we have postponed this application of this company temporarily already. In order to deal with this issue better, please contact us by telephone or email as soon as possible. Waiting for your reply ASAP.

Another area on the main page that could really use this is the shortcuts menu. There should be a "more" link with a new popup with ~5 additional shortcuts there. These menus keep growing but they clutter the site so keeping them hidden behind a "more" link is a good compromise and is used by other large websites with lots of secondary pages to link to (e.g., google.com "more" link for other search properties) Things like the artwork page are far too minor to be represented in any way on the main page, but it is nice to link to the handbook, ports page, and other important second level pages more directly with these javascript menus. - Murray On Sun, Jul 5, 2009 at 2:34 PM, Giorgos Keramidas wrote: > On Sun, 05 Jul 2009 12:09:20 +0200, Daniel Gerzo wrote: >> I also tested with latest Safari on OS X Leopard where it works okay.

Yes I would like to see them committed in some form. Thanks for adding these.

Todos os direitos reservados From mexas at bristol.ac.uk Tue Jul 7 11:33:12 2009 From: mexas at bristol.ac.uk (Anton Shterenlikht) Date: Tue Jul 7 11:33:19 2009 Subject: handbook incorrect in 19.4 RAID1 for ia64 Message-ID: <20090707111609.GA45627@mech-cluster238.men.bris.ac.uk> After careful reading section 19.4 RAID1 of the handbook, and after some discussion on ia64 list, I believe this section is incorrect when it comes to ia64 platform. I'd like to write a correction, but not sure if I should aim for a subsection, e.g "19.4.x RAID1 on ia64", or just some notes and examples in the main 19.4 article. The major problems are: (a) ia64 uses GPT instead of MBR, and secondary GPT is stored in the last 34 sectors of the disk, so that it is damaged by gmirror; (b) because of (a) gmirror per partition is the only possible way forward. (c) gmirror per partition ivolves serveral extra steps because only unmounted partition can be mirrored. My experience is briefly detailed below, and I was thinking of submitting something along these lines. Please advise anton ******************* Some steps are related to install on my particular box, i.e. not generic ia64 requirements. It seems quite complicated, requiring two reboots. Please see if you can shorten or simplify the procedure. I'd like to write a section on RAID-1 on ia64 for the handbook based on this, because existing advice is incorrect when it comes to ia64. So, I welcome any suggestions on these quidelines. This example is based on setting up gmirror on rx2600 with two directly attached scsi disks, da0 and da1. 1. preliminary: read man pages for gpart(8), gmirror(8), geom(4), geom(8), dump(8), restore(8). use # gpart show # gmirror status # gmirror list between the steps to see partitions and mirror state. 2. fresh FBSD install on da0, as default, but: a) /efi is 400MB b) set up at least one network interface c) create at least one user and add him to group wheel (b) and (c) are necessary because /etc/ttys by default does not open getty on console via MP, so ssh connection is required. 3. (optional, possibly for my box only): add hw.ata.atapi_dma=0 to /boot/device.hints 4. (optional) enable extra debug messages: # sysctl kern.geom.debugflags=17 5. partition a spare disk, da1, exactly as the boot disk: # gpart create -s gpt da1 # gpart add ... so that the results look like: # gpart show => 34 143374671 da0 GPT (68G) 34 819200 1 efi (400M) 819234 1048576 2 freebsd-ufs (512M) 1867810 4194304 3 freebsd-swap (2.0G) 6062114 2097152 4 freebsd-ufs (1.0G) 8159266 2097152 5 freebsd-ufs (1.0G) 10256418 133118287 6 freebsd-ufs (63G) => 34 143374671 da1 GPT (68G) 34 819200 1 efi (400M) 819234 1048576 2 freebsd-ufs (512M) 1867810 4194304 3 freebsd-swap (2.0G) 6062114 2097152 4 freebsd-ufs (1.0G) 8159266 2097152 5 freebsd-ufs (1.0G) 10256418 133118287 6 freebsd-ufs (63G) # 6. load gmirror kernel module # gmirror load 7. create mirror for EFI partition: a) unmount /efi because GEOM manipulations can be performed only on unmounted, not in use, partition: # umount /efi b) create efi mirror on the boot(!) disk: # gmirror label -vb round-robin efi da0p1 c) add spare disk's efi partition to the mirror: # gmirror insert efi da1p1 rebuilding should start, check progress with # gmirror status after rebuilding is complete you should see: # gmirror status efi Name Status Components mirror/efi COMPLETE da0p1 da1p1 # d) mount mirror efi: # mount -t msdosfs /dev/mirror/efi /efi # df Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Avail Capacity Mounted on ... /dev/mirror/efi 409504 163264 246240 40% /efi # 8. create mirror for root (/) partition. This involves extra steps since / cannot be unmounted. a) create mirror on the spare disk: # gmirror label -vb round-robin root da1p2 b) create ufs filesystem on the mirror: # newfs /dev/mirror/root c) mount root mirror temporarily, say under /mnt: # mount /dev/mirror/root /mnt d) now copy / onto /mnt (actually onto the root mirror, /dev/mirror/root).

Remove that file and install /usr/ports/x11/linux-xorg- libs. The correct libXp.so.6 should then be installed. The article could use a "pre-requisite" section though.

I'm writing a virtualization flyer at the moment (miwi has v1 of it, v2 will be ready this weekend) with vbox.

I am no expert on this though - I've used qemu in the past but could never get the level of performance possible with VirtualBox or VMWare (which beats them both I believe). The paragraph was loosely based on the original one stating "No virtualization solution for FreeBSD as a host". Seems the original author also did not consider qemu as a virtual machine in this sense.

Installation is probably easier than VirtualBox, but since this is actually a command line tool, it will be interesting to show a few examples on installing a guest system etc. Will then rephrase this introduction paragraph accordingly. Will send in the patch for review here when it is ready (I need to brush up a bit on my qemu skills, haven't used it for a while). I have the patches for the trademark stuff you suggested and will commit them later on tonight - when my afternoon headache is hopefully over... Thanks!

Though, from what I have read, I would not consider it a "virtual machine host solution" either. While I understand it runs image files, I don't think it's geared for several OS images, running concurrently. Again, note, I only installed - and when the image I had (passed by a friend) failed to run, I just removed it. In the end, my virtualization solution has been VMWare ESXi, and VirtualBox only on a Linux host.

I really don't see the big difference between qemu and VMware / Virtual Box. qemu is more flexible in hardware support - VMware (and Virtual Box?) is faster. Just like VMware server multiple concurrent virtual machines just run in different processes. Yes, qemu is slower than VMware but e.g. for testing og kernel hacking it works nicely. I can't comment on Virtual Box's speed as I haven't tried it. [reordered] > > The paragraph was loosely based on the original one stating "No > > virtualization solution for FreeBSD as a host". Seems the original > > author also did not consider qemu as a virtual machine in this sense. Yes, it came from there, it wasn't any more correct IMO there :-). I guess my basic problem with the paragraph is that it seems to me to be praising Sun a tad much for releasing Virtual Box while ignoring that qemu has been available freely for years, but perhaps that's just me. Anyway, I think I made my point and I will let it be up to Manolis as the author was should be in the section and what should not. -- Simon L.

I expected that to be at /home/dcvs for docs. Perhaps we should add a short note to the handbook's anoncvs section? While it does say ncvs for all mirrors, I certainly find it likely that other (committers?) could make the same dcvs mistake. -- Simon L.

The major enhancements are always in the release announcement, though not all of these call for a handbook section (and there are other more subtle changes that may need existing sections to be modified). Most of the time the changes in the Handbook are introduced when someone notices the difference and submits a question, PR or a patch. Sometimes even seemingly 'random' events contribute to this. As an example, some debug messages concerning the new ufsid labels were inadvertently left in the kernel of 7.2-RELEASE. I would have never noticed this otherwise (how often do you go searching in /dev?) but it resulted in the update of this section: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/geom-glabel.html (see final paragraphs below the example) If you have a good idea of what is in the Handbook, you can probably find some sections that need to be updated by using the betas. For example, trying out 8.0-BETA1 I was surprised that I could not configure my wireless card like I always did. Then I found out about the new virtual wifi and the changes needed in ifconfig etc. These will definitely need to be documented in the Handbook. A very good page to start looking is Ivan Voras' "What's cooking for FreeBSD 8?" http://ivoras.sharanet.org/freebsd/freebsd8.html From ABekaAcademy at promo.abeka.com Wed Jul 22 14:43:50 2009 From: ABekaAcademy at promo.abeka.com (A Beka Academy) Date: Wed Jul 22 14:43:57 2009 Subject: ABA K4 Video Program $350 or Save $100 on New K5-12 Enrollments!

A= ccordingly, most attorneys have a very difficult=20 time getting in-house jobs. Some spend years looking for them. The advice I am about to give you is something very few attorneys know a= bout. The attorneys who have followed this advice have had excellent results. However, most attorneys are too "stu= ck in their ways" and believe that job-search=20 methods that put them into competition with thousands of others for the = same in-house job(s) are the best.

In-House Jobs Are Not Difficult to Get if You Know Where to L= ook and Use the Right Tools to Search.

In-ho= use attorney jobs typically are fairly easy for=20 employers to fill and are usually (1) not given to recruiters and (2) not advertised. These jobs are, however, posted on the employer websites for you to find= . The issue is that there are 10,000+ employer=20 websites and very few attorneys know of all of the companies that they n= eed to look at for openings.
