I'm coming more and more to the conclusion that we should have a minimal Python in "base". More and more people

Hi, I made a wifi script based on the wlanconfig in bsdinstaller. here is the code: https://github.com/gihnius/freebsd-wifi I think we can make it more suitable for many devices and normal use. Any idea to write a normal feature script to use freebsd wifi easily ? and thanks to the author of wlanconfig.

Hello, I'd like to switch off this silly "Nakatomi Socrates" message which reminds me on Linux and their childish naming schemes. It is only cosmetics, but it bothers me whenever I switch on the laptop. I guess there is a switch already prsent to have in the bootloader config?

Followed the instructions here: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/updating-upgrading-freebsdupdate.html The upgrade borked. Error message: Can't find 'kernel' When I checked with ls /boot/kernel/, the directory does exist. :-( Since the system has encrypted root partion with ZFSonROOT, I tried to follow instructions at https://forums.freebsd.org/viewtopic.php?&t=8958 to boot

Hi all, It appears as though SVN r244198 introduced a regression. One that is affecting HEAD and stable/10 (for upcoming 10.0-R) and was introduced 10 months ago (but does not appear to have made it into 9.x yet or even stable/9). The regression introduced by r244198 is that: Whilst "sysctl -f /etc/sysctl.conf" will parse parameters with quoted values... "service sysctl

After installing a text-based development environment via /stand/sysinstall (followed by CVSup, makeworld/kernel etc to 4-8-stable), I realize I want to install KDE, too. I initiated this with: pkg_add -r kdebase followed again by CVSup etc. Apparently that wasn't enough. Am getting message "XFree86 setup utility.. not installed" when trying to config xf86config (text-based) via

In the next month or two I've got to upgrade a number of servers that are currently on an EOL'd version of 4-STABLE. I foresee that I'll have very limited time to do full OS upgrades on these systems in the coming several years, so I want to make sure I bring them onto an extended-life branch. Right now 4.11 has the furthest projected EOL date (Jan 31 2007), and the projected EOL

I finally got a 10G card that is recognized by FreeBSD (9.1-stable): ... ix0: <Intel(R) PRO/10GbE PCI-Express Network Driver, Version - 2.4.8> port 0xecc0-0xecdf mem 0xd9e80000-0xd9efffff,0xd9ff8000-0xd9ffbfff irq 40 at device 0.0 on pci4 ix0: Using MSIX interrupts with 9 vectors ix0: RX Descriptors exceed system mbuf max, using default instead! ix0: Ethernet address: 90:e2:ba:29:c0:54

Hello, I have been struglling with sysinstall, attempting to make it handle the geometry of some large SATA drives. After a lot of effort I decided to stop suffering and modified the program in order to circumvent the outdated limit of 65535 cylinders (see attached patch). I'm thinking about submitting a PR with a change request but I'd like to get some additional opinions first. I did

I've got a new supermicro server I'm trying to get FreeBSD on. It uses the Intel c602 chipset, and it's my understanding that support for that chipset (c60X) was recently added via the isci driver. Ok, great, that explains why 8.2-R and 9.0-R didn't see the drives. So, I grabbed the memstick image of 8.3-RELEASE that is on the ftp server, booted it up, and sure enough, as the

Hi, I would like to follow 4-stable on my FreeBSD box, and i can't fetch binaries from /stand/sysinstall. Can anyone help me? Here is how i did: 1) I installed 4.8-RELEASE from CD, 2) I used cvsup to upgrade. For this i used the stable-supfile as shown in the Handbook. => My OS version as shown by 'uname -a' and '/stand/sysinstall' is "4.8-STABLE". It

I would like to customize our store-bought, bootable FreeBSD CD so that it does a non-interactive (or minimally interactive ;-) install. The interim solution we've devised has our lab execution techs booting from a CD and then using the Sysinstall "Load config file" menu option to load an "install.cfg" file from a floppy. We'd like to eliminate this step by

Hi, I have, in one customer, a web server running on a Verisign-signed certificate SSL certificate. Everything works fine, IE and Firefox connects on https without asking anything, which usually happens on self-signed certificates. I'm trying to use that certificate on dovecot, but clients (Thunderbird basically) keeps saying the certificate is not valid. yes i'm using,

Hey folks, So what's the word on AHCI and bios drive geometry? I'm having a real pain of a time trying to get some 750gb sata drives running on my FreeBSD7 box in AHCI mode. It doesn't seem to matter what disk geometry I suggest to sysinstall, something complains of an invalid disk upon booting it. Actually, in AHCI mode the bios screen doesn't report any information on

Here''s a link to the Verisign scripts we used... We customized ours a bit but this will get you going. Graciously provided by Jon at Slantwise Design and posted with permission (http://www.slantwisedesign.com), these may make it into some other format someday (gem? Plug in?). Anyway, of course, no warranty with this code, use at your own risk and really no support - you''ll have

Hi all. I have never implemented online payment and it''s the only thing that keeps me from accepting a project for a UK based client. (I must reply quickly!) While I can afford spending an extra week - or 2 - to learn/try/tune the payment system, I must be sure to succeed before I accept the contract. If you''ve already been through that path, any hints, links and/or
