problem with UMASS

2003-06-13 Thread Antoine Jacoutot
Hi ! I'm using a USB adapter to plug a HDD into my FreeBSD-4.8 box. If I boot with the device pluged-in, it works fine, but if I plug it in after boot or unplug then replug it, it doesn't work anymore (I get timeout errors). Here is some information about this device: from dmesg.boot: uma

"jumpstation" configuration

2003-06-13 Thread Jamie Novak
I hope this is okay to post here. I was torn between this list and freebsd-general... At work, we have a FreeBSD jumpstart server configured, more or less, as described on Alfred Perlstein's web page. (http://people.freebsd.org/~alfred/pxe/) The jumpstation itself works great and we've been using

Forgive me for the spam. Steve & Ceri pointed me in the right direction by basically saying (although much more nicely), "Hey, idiot. Check to see that the kernel image you're loading actually has support for the em driver" -- which it didn't. I thought we were still using a generic kernel during t

Using Newer Version of GCC on 4.8

I am currently developing on FreeBSD 4.8 with gcc 2.95.3. Is there any problem upgrading to a newer version of GCC to use for compiling device drivers? I want to get unnamed structure support. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/

I've had a surprising response, mostly of people needing instructions on how to install. So I've update the snapshot to include the attached readme. Also, Yuriy Tsibizov has reported some success with an Audigy card so that may be usable via his driver. --Mat -- Brain:

How do I see open sockets count (kern.ipc.maxsockets, but status)

2003-06-13 Thread Josh Brooks
Hello, When I run out of files, I can see how many files are actually open by looking at the kern.openfiles sysctl. This makes it easy to see if I am hitting my limit or not. However, I am experiencing "No buffer space available" errors, and since I am not running out of mbufs: netstat -m 1728

PLEASE REVIEW: Adding a pci_if method to facilitate specialized PCIbus drivers

2003-06-13 Thread Thomas Moestl
Hi, I've attached a patch that adds a new pci_if method, assign_interrupt, and makes the PCI code implement and use it. This is private to the PCI bus and is only used internally (to find an interrupt of a child device); it is a method so that derived PCI bus drivers can override it. This is very
