My computer just hangs, and I can type 5 million lines if I want, but nothing ever happens, and the harddrive is never pinged after that message indicated above. One other thing, "If my hard drive is not even getting written to, as per the lack of any lights flashing, then how the heck can I write anything to the screen?

However, it does have something to do with getting my Orinoco Gold PC Card operational and this forum is as good as any to try. Here's the scenario: When I attempted to install FreeBSD 4.9R on my old ThinkPad laptop, the install program loaded a generic PC controller and then my wireless NIC was good to go. There was a video limitation so I scrapped loading the full OS with X on the ThinkPad. That being said, I also had the Gold PC Card running in my mini-tower at one time (under WinNT) via a PC controller card that I had to get from the manufacturer. I guess this controller card is proprietary or something. When I booted from the 4.9R install floppies the system never prompted me to use PCMCIA as the install medium as it did with the laptop. No PCMCIA controller = no Gold card... Do any of you know how/where I can get docs/info to get this PC controller up so I can get the Gold card running? Thanks in advance for the assist, Pat B.

I used to get pccard: card inserted, slot 0 pccardd[59]: No card in database for "null" ("(null)") if you get a message like this it means you have a working pccard, it just doesn't know what to do with it. if not, either reinstall or rebuild the kernel with pccard support turned on (and see the freebsd handbook, e.g. freebsd.org or /usr/share/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/ for how to do that) next you might want to mess with the pccardc memory settings... e.g. pccardc pccardmem 0xdN000 where N can be 0, 4, 8 or c... now insert the card and see what happens (alt to inserting the card is pccardc power 0 0 pccardc power 0 1 to power cycle the card) good luck. ofcourse, this might not describe your problem. attempt to find out the make and model of the PC interface you have and do a google search for it, or look for it in the hardware notes on freebsd.org On Tue, 11 Nov 2003 06:47 am, Patrick Burnett wrote: > First of all I know this technically isn't a question for the Mobile > forum, since it pertains to my little mini-tower.

Ah, never mind. There is no point in not buying from Dell as it is the cheapest or very close to anybody else in price. And to directly answer my own query, there should not be any problems in getting a hard drive elsewhere at least when cross referenced w/ SimpleTech or CMS drive searches.

Assuming (given the context provided by a mailing list devoted to mobile computing) that it is a laptop, there should be a variety of access screws on the bottom of the laptop, which, when loosened, may allow batteries, hard drives, CDROMs and whatnot to be lowered, or slid, out of the chassis. This is germane because if you are able to do this you will probably find that the hard drives in laptop computers, like their big brothers, all fit into the same form factor. So the answer to your question - can you buy hard drives for your laptop from third parties - is an enthusiastic yes. Dell doesn't make their own hard drives; they buy them from other OEMs (Hitachi, IBM, etc), in big lots, whatever's cheapest at the moment. Everybody does it. Sun, HP, Silicon Graphics, Apple, etc. That having been said, you may also want to consider replacing your current hard drive with something larger; many laptops issued with 10 GB hard drives - the limit, at their time of manufacture - can easily contain 20, 30 or 40 GB hard drives, now that drive manufacturers can pack two, three or four times as much data into the predetermined form factor. A good place to start would be by identifying your hard drive's exact model number, via the above steps; if necessary, go to Dell's website and find instructions on how to remove the hard drive from your laptop. Carefully remove the hard drive and write down anything that looks like an identifying characteristic - model number, manufacturer, capacity in gigabytes, disk geometry, anything that looks useful. Then, use those keywords in your search, but add "price", and see if you can find a vendor that sells the same hard drive as what you have now. (Hint: pricewatch.com.) That's your starting point. From there you may wish to note the cost and capacity of a few other hard drives, and calculate the cost per megabyte for each model, so that you can see if you are truely getting the best deal; it might be cheaper to buy two 20 GB hard drives and use one as a spare, instead of buying a 40 GB hard drive and having all your eggs in one basket, as it were. Hope this is helpful.

I have exactly the same problem on my Thinkpad R30, with FreeBSD 4.7, 4.8, 4.9, 5.0, 5.1) The strange thing is that at first everything works fine with 4.7 several months ago. One day I decide to move to NetBSD because of the agp compatibility problem in all FreeBSD version since 4.8 (I think the agp problem is a registered bug, someone told me that in some mailing list, I don't remember.) After using NetBSD for about a month, the notebook crashed when I compile php4, and since then fxp begins to always report that error message and never work anymore. I installed a dozen versions of FreeBSD, none of them makes fxp work, while Windows 98 works with that NIC okay. _________________________________________________________________ 享用世界上最大的电子邮件系统— MSN Hotmail。 http://www.hotmail.com From owner-freebsd-mobile@FreeBSD.ORG Tue Nov 11 08:37:19 2003 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-mobile@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.FreeBSD.org (mx1.freebsd.org [216.136.204.125]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id E0C2516A4CE for ; Tue, 11 Nov 2003 08:37:19 -0800 (PST) Received: from mail.linuxcare.com (mail.linuxcare.com [216.88.157.164]) by mx1.FreeBSD.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 4B4D643F75 for ; Tue, 11 Nov 2003 08:37:19 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from Bill@linuxcare.com) Received: from linuxcare.com (yoga.i.linuxcare.com [10.1.1.5]) by mail.linuxcare.com (Postfix) with ESMTP id 952C790205 for ; Tue, 11 Nov 2003 08:31:41 -0800 (PST) Sender: wiliweld@linuxcare.com Message-ID: <3FB11047.AC77A0F@linuxcare.com> Date: Tue, 11 Nov 2003 08:37:27 -0800 From: Bill Schoolcraft X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.8 [en] (X11; U; Linux 2.4.21-0.13mdksmp i686) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: f-mobile References: <20031111025207.GA39424@moo.holy.cow> <3FB07154.2080902@pacbell.net> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Subject: Re: Hard drive for Dell Inspiron 5000e - place to buy X-BeenThere: freebsd-mobile@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.1 Precedence: list List-Id: Mobile computing with FreeBSD List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Tue, 11 Nov 2003 16:37:20 -0000 richard childers / kg6hac wrote: > > > That having been said, you may also want to consider replacing your > current hard drive with something larger; many laptops issued with 10 GB > hard drives - the limit, at their time of manufacture - can easily > contain 20, 30 or 40 GB hard drives, now that drive manufacturers can > pack two, three or four times as much data into the predetermined form > factor.

I have an Inspiron 5000e which originally came with a 5 GB drive. It uses regular old ATA 2.5" drives for the primary drive though only at UDMA33 due to having a PIIX4 chipset. I've used an 18 GB drive and currently have a 40 GB drive in it. -- John Baldwin <>< http://www.FreeBSD.org/~jhb/ "Power Users Use the Power to Serve!" - http://www.FreeBSD.org/ From owner-freebsd-mobile@FreeBSD.ORG Tue Nov 11 12:48:32 2003 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-mobile@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.FreeBSD.org (mx1.freebsd.org [216.136.204.125]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id E024016A4CE for ; Tue, 11 Nov 2003 12:48:32 -0800 (PST) Received: from rwcrmhc11.comcast.net (rwcrmhc11.comcast.net [204.127.198.35]) by mx1.FreeBSD.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 25AD743FDD for ; Tue, 11 Nov 2003 12:48:32 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from wiggtekmicro@comcast.net) Received: from [24.125.64.36] (c-24-125-64-36.va.client2.attbi.com[24.125.64.36]) by comcast.net (rwcrmhc11) with SMTP id <20031111204831013002u3g7e>; Tue, 11 Nov 2003 20:48:31 +0000 From: "Martes G.

Does anyone know how the applications are supposed to be accessed on BSD? While using KDE I am able to access quite a few applications, but the desktop is quite complex, and I decided to try gnome2.4, to see if I could access the linux compatible stuff. It seems to me that the only office/application stuff is the kde propriatary-ish apps. Nothing else seems to be locatable. I have the compat stuff installed, so how am I supposed to be able to access the other applications, since they don't seem to be available for FreeBSD itself. I really would like to use openoffice.org 1.1 or anything other than the kde stuff. I would appreciate at least one response this time, if you guys would not mind.... Thanks again.

I have the compat stuff installed ... > UNIX is the operating system; think of it as the cake. X Windows is the graphic user interface; think of it as the frosting. You can have a cake without frosting but you can't have a frosting without some cake to hold it up. Similarly, you can have UNIX without X, but you cannot have X, without a UNIX server somewhere (obligatory caveats about Windows-based X clients inserted here). One other thing: the look and feel of X Windows is radically modified by the actual window manager you choose to use with your X Windows installation. There are dozens of different WMs ... some are very sparse. Some give you a virtual desktop that is orders of magnitude larger than your physical screen size. Others give you the look and feel of Windows, complete with a task bar on the bottom of the screen. Others aim for aesthetic brilliance and cutting-edge graphical capabilities. You are best off picking one window manager and sticking with it until you know its limitations, and know why you are discarding it, and know what you are looking for, in terms of window management. None of this is any use if you don't understand UNIX, though. For instance, an application is nothing more than an executable file at the end of a long pathname - same as DOS, but the separator between directories is '/', not '\', and we don't use the C: drive as part of the pathname. Otherwise, it's pretty much the same. You can type that long pathname manually and hit RETURN, the old way ... or you can click on a GUI and the GUI will type the long pathname and hit RETURN for you. However, if there is no executable file at the end of the long pathname, it's no use clicking on your GUI and wondering why something doesn't start; it doesn't start because it isn't there. If you don't know what 'there' is or where 'there' is then I can only suggest a good introductory book on using UNIX from the command line. Learn about files, directories and file permissions, as well as shells. A shell, to the command line user, is analogous to a window manager, for GUI users. When you can write a small shell script - any shell, it doesn't matter which one - you're probably ready to start learning about X Windows. Good luck; don't stop asking questions (even dumb ones; sometimes they are the best).

Everything apart from the wifi works great under -CURRENT, main problem with the centrino laptops is the fact that if it's the intel wireless chipset then it's not supported in anything other than windows since it's not a true hardware solution.

I have it too with an Elsa Airlancer MC11 (Lucent/Orinoco chipset) and a Dell Inspiron 8000. I'm always observing it when the signal is not so strong (resulting in 2Mbit speed). The timing situation may be different then. I unplug the PCMCIA card then and let the card getting detached. Then I run manually the command /etc/startif_wi0 which contains the ifconfig commands for the wireless lan. Then I stop dhclient and run it manually (dhclient wi0).

The one I'd like most to solve is sound. My computer is supposed to have an ICH3 compatible sound card (Yamaha AC-XG, according to windoz), but when I try kldloading the sound driver or loading the kernel with the pcm driver compiled in it, the system freezes with the next messages: ----- fwohci0: at device 7.0 on pci2 fwohci0: Invalid irq 255 fwohci0: Please switch PNP-OS to 'No' in BIOS fwohci0: Could not map memory device_probe_and_attach: fwohci0 attach returned 6 fwohci0: at device 7.0 on pci2 fwohci0: Invalid irq 255 fwohci0: Please switch PNP-OS to 'No' in BIOS fwohci0: Could not map memory device_probe_and_attach: fwohci0 attach returned 6 fwohci0: at device 7.0 on pci2 fwohci0: Invalid irq 255 fwohci0: Please switch PNP-OS to 'No' in BIOS fwohci0: Could not map memory device_probe_and_attach: fwohci0 attach returned 6 pcm0: at device 31.5 on pci0 pcm0: Unable to map IO port space device_probe_and_attach: pcm0 attach returned 6 ------ I've got a friend who has an older Toshiba laptop with (apparently) the same sound card, but no firewire, and it works perfectly there. Could it be perhaps the firewire port is getting in the way? I tried compiling without firewire support but the kernel would panic then. I don't know how to access the BIOS settings; the documentation provided by Toshiba doesn't say how to (bad Toshiba bad! I'll write to them right away). What else can I try? My sound card didn't work in linux either, and I haven't tested the OSS drivers yet. I've got another problem with FreeBSD 5.0 and 5.1: the computer gets frozen before sysinstall runs. The last line it says is something about agp0 (can't remember exactly what it was, but everything seemed to run properly, although a bit slower than 4.8 and 4.9). I haven't been able to install it. One last question: how do I "rescan" the USB ports so the computer can detect when I plug in a generic mouse after FreeBSD has started? If I connect or disconnect it after FreeBSD has started, the computer simply ignores it (it doesn't even supply power, the mouse's light does not turn on) and it ignores the touchpad as well. Other than that, the system runs very nicely in 4.9-Release, the NVidia driver works perfectly (the 3d screen savers run very smoothly), and a key repeating issue in X is easily solved with the Gnome accessibility features (slow keys set to 20 milliseconds - if someone's interested). Thanks a lot, Alejandro.

I'm running -current on this machine, but didn't actually install it here, I had the system already set up on my old laptop, so I just swapped disks and booted the new machine, which went fine. The actual model is a 2373-19G, which comes with a Pentium M 1.3GHz and all the fine Centrino stuff like the intergrated WLAN - which doesn't work, of course. As I said, the machine boots fine. I had to put hw.pci.allow_unsupported_io_range="1" into /boot/device.hints to detect the Cardbus devices correctly. Suprisingly, ACPI also works fine, even S3 suspend does what it should do. (The fan kicks in quite often - more than I'd like it to, and battery life is shorter than in Windows - I get about three hours in BSD, and up to four and more in Windows.) I made some minimal modifications to my DSDT, but I guess they are rather cosmetic. There are some issues with X, though, you need to disable hardware acceleration or you won't survive a resume. Also, USB seems to be broken after a suspend/resume cycle, but apart from that, it's ok. When booting, I get these messages: cbb0: mem 0xb0000000-0xb0000fff irq 11 at device 0.0 on pci2 start (b0000000) < sc->membase (c0200000) start (b0000000) < sc->pmembase (e8000000) cbb1: mem 0xb1000000-0xb1000fff irq 5 at device 0.1 on pci2 start (b1000000) < sc->membase (c0200000) start (b1000000) < sc->pmembase (e8000000) start (88000000) < sc->membase (c0200000) end (ffffffff) > sc->memlimit (cfffffff) start (88000000) < sc->pmembase (e8000000) end (ffffffff) > sc->pmemlimit (cfffffff) start (88000000) < sc->membase (c0200000) end (ffffffff) > sc->memlimit (cfffffff) start (88000000) < sc->pmembase (e8000000) end (ffffffff) > sc->pmemlimit (cfffffff) ath0: mem 0x88000000-0x8800ffff irq 5 at device 0.0 on cardbus1 start (88000000) < sc->membase (c0200000) start (88000000) < sc->pmembase (e8000000) ath0: mac 5.6 phy 4.1 5ghz radio 1.7 2ghz radio 2.3 ath0: 11a rates: 6Mbps 9Mbps 12Mbps 18Mbps 24Mbps 36Mbps 48Mbps 54Mbps ath0: 11b rates: 1Mbps 2Mbps 5.5Mbps 11Mbps ath0: 11g rates: 1Mbps 2Mbps 5.5Mbps 11Mbps 6Mbps 9Mbps 12Mbps 18Mbps 24Mbps 36Mbps 48Mbps 54Mbps I'm not sure if these 'start < sc->membase' messages mean anything to worry about - everything seems to work.

I've been running FreeBSD on a T40p, which is almost the same, for a while. I have run into some issues that it seems you don't have.

I had no trouble getting it to detect the cardbus controller, though I was never able to boot with a device inserted (I had to wait and hotswap them during operation). Also, having cardbus support enabled seemed to break random things all over, including X crashing upon startup. I will try and see if the above fix has any effect on that. > Suprisingly, ACPI also works fine, even S3 suspend does what it should do. Even S1-S2?

USB dies on my system too, but a resume also has the effect that the system is behaving like it's under tremedous load. Typing characters at the console feels like I'm ssh:ing over a variable-speed modem :) This makes suspend/resume unusable. Did you have to do anything in order for suspend/resume to work completely?
