It, more or less, depends on the errors. I think, though, that I would use some sort of mirroring, gmirror for FreeBSD. That way, if you lose a drive you can at least fall down somewhat gracefully rather than a panic and no more data. -- -- From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Sun Aug 5 02:02:48 2007 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id B4F7D16A418 for ; Sun, 5 Aug 2007 02:02:48 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from dan@dan.emsphone.com) Received: from dan.emsphone.com (dan.emsphone.com [199.67.51.101]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 7038C13C46A for ; Sun, 5 Aug 2007 02:02:48 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from dan@dan.emsphone.com) Received: (from dan@localhost) by dan.emsphone.com (8.14.1/8.14.1) id l7522cMo059889; Sat, 4 Aug 2007 21:02:38 -0500 (CDT) (envelope-from dan) Date: Sat, 4 Aug 2007 21:02:37 -0500 From: Dan Nelson To: Damian Vicino Message-ID: <20070805020237.GE77822@dan.emsphone.com> References: <46B4E8D7.4060700@dc.uba.ar> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline In-Reply-To: <46B4E8D7.4060700@dc.uba.ar> X-OS: FreeBSD 7.0-CURRENT User-Agent: Mutt/1.5.16 (2007-06-09) Cc: FreeBSD Questions Subject: Re: Using Smart-Fail HD X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Sun, 05 Aug 2007 02:02:48 -0000 In the last episode (Aug 04), Damian Vicino said: > Im Having FBSD running in a P3 with 4.3GB HD, and got 2 extra 80GBs > HD that fails the SMART check.

You'll also need scbus(4) and sa(4), but they are included in GENERIC.

I am using FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE-p7. I did the upgrade as described in the updating notes. I use emacs plus auctex slime quack emacs-w3m Everything was upgraded properly. However, no portsdb -Uu generates errors. Therefore, I have remove EMACS_PORT_NAME=emacs22 from /etc/make.conf and now portsdb -Uu works without a problem. However, if I remove any of the ports such as auctex and then reinstall it, portinstall will try to install emacs21 again which conflicts with emacs22. I am stuck. If I leave EMACS_PORT_NAME=emacs22 in /etc/make.conf then dependencies work but portsdb -Uu fails. If I remove EMACS_PORT_NAME=emacs22 from /etc/make.conf then portsdb -Uu works but the dependencies are messed up. I even went as far as to delete emacs with pkg_delete -r emacs-22.1 and tried installing everything from scratch. However the dependencies are still messed up. Does anybody have a solution to this problem?

This has probably been asked before, but if BIND is available in ports then why is it also available in contrib? Are there any benefits in choosing the one in contrib over the one in ports?

I am running 6.2-RELEASE-p7. The approach that I had been using was: /usr/local/bin/cvsup -L 0 /usr/sup/supfile /usr/local/sbin/portsdb -Uu This had worked great until the emacs22 update. Now portsdb crashes due to the emacs entry in /etc/make.conf. However, I see very little chatter on the lists about this. I have started to wonder if the bulk of the community may be updating their ports differently. Upon some limited research I found that I could use: /usr/local/bin/cvsup -L 0 /usr/sup/supfile /usr/local/sbin/portsdb -Fu This work fine for me. I can then use tools such as pkg_version, pkg_delete, portinstall and portupgrade without any problems. My open ended question is what does the rest of the community do to update their ports collection?

Couple of reasons, of relatively equal importance depending on who you speak to. BSD systems have "always" (I haven't verified this, but people who should know have told me) shipped with dns stuff on board, so there is resistance to the idea of stripping it out for that reason. The other thing that is a concern to a lot of people is that BIND is more than just named. Take a look at the WITHOUT_BIND* knobs in src.conf(1) in 7-current or make.conf(1) in 6-stable to get an idea of how things break down. I have a standing offer to either remove BIND from the base, or flip the defaults for some of those knobs to "NO" if the community wants it that way. > Are there any benefits in choosing the one in contrib over the one > in ports? Advantage to the one in contrib is that it's right there, and the new default named.conf (and associated files) makes it possible to start up a local resolver "out of the box." If you want a greater degree of freedom in build-time configuration, or you want a version other than what is in your base (for example, you want to use 9.4.x but you're on a 6-stable machine), then you can use the ports. The ports also have an option to overwrite the files in the base if that makes things easier in your environment. hth, Doug -- This .signature sanitized for your protection From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Sun Aug 5 17:13:35 2007 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 0897D16A418 for ; Sun, 5 Aug 2007 17:13:35 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from freebsd@sopwith.solgatos.com) Received: from schitzo.solgatos.com (pool-71-117-239-216.ptldor.fios.verizon.net [71.117.239.216]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id D124413C45D for ; Sun, 5 Aug 2007 17:13:31 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from freebsd@sopwith.solgatos.com) Received: from schitzo.solgatos.com (localhost.home.localnet [127.0.0.1]) by schitzo.solgatos.com (8.13.8/8.13.8) with ESMTP id l75GZmA9016657 for ; Sun, 5 Aug 2007 09:35:48 -0700 Received: from sopwith.solgatos.com (uucp@localhost) by schitzo.solgatos.com (8.13.8/8.13.4/Submit) with UUCP id l75GZmIZ016654 for freebsd-questions@freebsd.org; Sun, 5 Aug 2007 09:35:48 -0700 Received: from localhost by sopwith.solgatos.com (8.8.8/6.24) id QAA17703; Sun, 5 Aug 2007 16:33:12 GMT Message-Id: <200708051633.QAA17703@sopwith.solgatos.com> To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Date: Sun, 05 Aug 2007 09:33:12 +0100 From: Dieter Subject: Re: 6.2 not compatible with new sata drives ?!

I assume that the new failing disks are >>> ad4: 157066MB at ata2-master SATA150 >>> ad8: 157066MB at ata4-master SATA150 and that they are Hitachi? I still don't know what controller you are using, but I read that nforce4 plus Maxtor or Hitachi disks gives data corruption: http://forums.nvidia.com/lofiversion/index.php?t8171.html I have been using nforce4-ultra with Seagate disks with no data corruption problems. It is not immediately obvious how data corruption would cause your device detached problem, but there could be more than one bug. If your controller works well with your Samsung drives, you could return the Hitachis and get more Samsungs.

So to summarize the answer to my question: * BIND is there in contrib coz lot of stuff depends on it and so its best left there. * BIND is also there in ports coz the one there offers you a lot more build time options, is newer, gets updates faster, and is also easier to get up and running with out of the box (in some situations atleast).

Im Having FBSD running in a P3 with 4.3GB HD, and got 2 extra 80GBs HD that fails the SMART check. I did a full HD scan with tools provided by the HD's developers and over 90% of the HDs are safe. I want to use those HD for home of the lowrank users, and keep the critical data in the 4GB HD. Do u know any pretty safe FS for this kind of unstable hardware, i was thinking in something with software RAID maybe. Thanks for any suggestion, im pretty new on FBSD world (and english-speak world too). BTW, if the solution can be applied to DFBSD, it will be very nice, becouse i got another machine P1 runnning it, and all HDs i can get for it use to have a lot of failures already. See ya Sdäv --------------------/QUOTE Damian, You might find Steve Gibson's SpinRite a really useful purchase. It recovers most drives it works on, and a single purchase can be use on any of your personal drives. It is it's own bootable floppy or CD, and works very well. http://www.grc.com/sr/spinrite.htm I recommend using that now, and then tread lightly until you feel confident about the drives again. If opportunity doesn't knock, build a door. "I can" is a way of life. More and Bigger is not always Better. The road to success is always uphill. ____________________________________________________________________________________ Luggage? GPS? Comic books? Check out fitting gifts for grads at Yahoo!

For the most part... However, once in a while it just dies (the lights indicating the DPI setting on top and the lights underneath it goes off and it stops responding). Since, according to the ehci man page, the USB 2.0 driver is quite buggy, I tried disabling it, but the problem didn't go away. I've also tried connecting the mouse to different USB connectors without luck. Every time it happens I get two lines in the /var/log/messages file: Aug 6 01:03:50 trapper kernel: usb1: host controller process error Aug 6 01:03:50 trapper kernel: usb1: host controller halted Now for my questions: Does anyone have any suggestions as to what causes this? The mouse itself? The USB host controllers (then all four controllers on my motherboard are faulty)? Buggy USB driver (if that is the case, both ehci and uhci are buggy)? Any other possibilities, that I haven't considered? I'd apprectiate any help, since this annoys the hell out of me. -- Sincerly, Rolf Nielsen From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Mon Aug 6 00:29:05 2007 Return-Path: Delivered-To: questions@FreeBSD.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 1715316A420 for ; Mon, 6 Aug 2007 00:29:05 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from tmclaugh@sdf.lonestar.org) Received: from straycat.dhs.org (c-24-63-86-11.hsd1.ma.comcast.net [24.63.86.11]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 9EBD913C46C for ; Mon, 6 Aug 2007 00:29:04 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from tmclaugh@sdf.lonestar.org) Received: from [192.168.1.127] (bofh.straycat.dhs.org [192.168.1.127]) by straycat.dhs.org (8.13.8/8.13.8) with ESMTP id l760BaRY013322; Sun, 5 Aug 2007 20:11:37 -0400 (EDT) From: Tom McLaughlin To: Jeffrey Goldberg In-Reply-To: <0A638D13-F341-4645-B750-33B08730EDA7@goldmark.org> References: <0A638D13-F341-4645-B750-33B08730EDA7@goldmark.org> Content-Type: text/plain Date: Sun, 05 Aug 2007 15:36:28 -0400 Message-Id: <1186342588.5848.2.camel@localhost> Mime-Version: 1.0 X-Mailer: Evolution 2.10.3 FreeBSD GNOME Team Port Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Cc: questions@FreeBSD.org Subject: Re: stty: unknown mode: doofus X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Mon, 06 Aug 2007 00:29:05 -0000 On Sat, 2007-08-04 at 08:47 -0500, Jeffrey Goldberg wrote: > During an installation, ports/lang/python24, I did a > > sudo make install > > And was prompted for my password.
