USB worked on 5.5, not on 5.6 on MacbookAir5,1

I've been running 5.5 on my MacbookAir5,1 for some time. I'm trying to upgrade to 5.6 but I'm not having much luck so far. A fresh install off a USB CD drive (ISOSTICK) proceeds until its time to copy the packages from the USB CD drive, but at that point no CD drive is visible. Next I tried insta

pf wishlist item: include statement with relative path?

Hi folks, Would it be possible for "pfctl -f" to search include files relative to the including file instead of the cwd, similar to #include "myheader.h" in C? This would help to check the syntax before putting the new pf files into place. Sample: Using include "pf_customers.conf" in m

wsconsctl dislay.brightness stopped working after upgrade to 5.6

Hi, On my Asus Zenbook UX31A I used to be able to control the backlight in both X and on the console using wsconsctl display.brithness=xx. After upgrading to 5.6 this stopped working. Whatever I put in place of xx, the output reports: display.brightness -> 100.00% I've attached dmesg output below.

recent and64 shapshots: USB device timeouts, xhci: NULL xfer pointer

With recent snapshots, USB on my laptop has been a lot less useful than earlier. My urtwn wifi dongle would see device timeouts as well as the xhci: NULL xfer pointer messages and of course lose connectivity. I also noticed that the machine would have problems handling more than one USB device a

Re: recent and64 shapshots: USB device timeouts, xhci: NULL xfer pointer

and I just noticed that the supplied dmesg did not in fact capture the NULL xfer pointer messages, but here's one that does, from a few minutes later running the same snapshot. The failure pattern isn't entirely consistent - the urtwn device will maintain link for some minutes, then timeout, som

Finally got cups working. I upgraded to current and reinstalled the packages. Noticed I forgot to disable ulpt so that may have been the issue. After rebooting in the new kernel everything is working and printing like a champ. Cheers, edgar

What about writing tutorials/articles? There's www.openbsdsupport.org which I believe is officially blessed though it doesn't look too active. Probably for lack of people submitting articles :-) Of course if you have a blog or web site you can write OpenBSD stuff for it. I know I've sometimes s

Re: xombrero crashes with "ReferenceError: Can't find variable: iom"

Seems to happen not just on OpenBSD, but also on 3.2 linux-libre kernel. Why not remove Xombrero from -current? Any thoughts? I mean, it's good, but is based on webkit, and have some bugs... maybe port Abaco will be better, I don't know.
