I'll ask 1until I get an answer or no longer need one: is there a way with kbdcontrol or 11whatever to display keyboards attached to kbdmux(4)? I only see -a to atach and -A to detach1.

hi, i am loosing my cdrom sometimes in system, cannot use devctl on /dev/cd0 and /dev/pass1 disappeared

is there a way to reload cdrom without reboot?

Does "camcontrol rescan" help?

Does the CD ROM disappear after an interval of inactivity?

... or perhaps after ejecting a CD?

parv: i'll try camcontrol rescan next time it will be disappeared

parv: randomly disappears, can happen after couple of minutes last usage

arinov, Ok

parv: no, doest help, but 5 devices was rescanned

cd0 is not configured

hmmm ...

root@l420:/usr/home/arinov # file -s /dev/cd0

/dev/cd0: ERROR: cannot read `/dev/cd0' (Device not configured)

found interesting option docs.freebsd.org/doc/3.0-RELEASE/usr/share/doc/FAQ/FAQ87.html

Title: When I mount a CDROM, I get ``Device not configured''.

On stable/13, the delay is 5000 ms in GENERIC kernel

Hello; I'm having trouble figuring out is switching between sound devices on 13.1. I have a whole seven devices available <bsd.to/QH4B>, when I really just want to playback from Front Analog if it's plugged in and Rear Analog if it's not, and record from my USB webcam. I've gathered that I probably have to do something in /boot/device.hints, but I'm absolutely confounded by the syntax. I was wondering if someone would be able to help.

I have 'htop' running and it shows me the following for memory: 16.0Z/7.38G. My questions is what does the 'Z' represent ? I couldn't find it in the man page. Either I didn't look properly or it wasn't there in the manual.

Zetabyte, compressed?

Hunh, I do see xZ/yG in htop

16 zetabytes out of 7 GB?

No, looks something else (not zetabyte). As it appears for "Mem", not "ARC", so "Z" is not compressed value either

May be in htop documentation somewhere ...

wow. a zetabyte is more than can be represented with 64 bits. that's *a lot* of memory you got there.

sphex: I have 7.3 GB of RAM, that is confirmed with sysctl hw.physmem. In all these years of using 'htop' I've never seen a 'Z' suffix for memory.

mns: what platform is this?

freebsd-13.1-RELEASE-p2

amd64?

sphex: yes.

seems like a known bug in htop: htop-dev/htop #1039

Title: Mem: 16.0Z on FreeBSD · Issue #1039 · htop-dev/htop · GitHub

1039 – two different spellings of "timezone" bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1039

mns, Thanks for the PR URL, as that corrected my misspelling of zetTabyte

parv: glad to have helped, even if unknowingly :-)

clear

htop knows nothing about jails, correct? Was digging in the manpage and didn't see anything...

spork_css: not as far as I know

.27

mns: I believe it's trying to get at the fact that FreeBSD is using ZFS ARC compression - which is more clearly illustrated in top(1), which in my opinion is also better because not only does it take up less CPU time, it does per-process I/O when you press m and knows the difference between threads and lightweight threads.

anyone using ossv4 in freebsd ?

accelerat0r: is this in base, or from ports?

spork_css: htop 2+ knows about jails

debdrup, but would it happen before 11proton 111decay? Outq1uering1 ù111m11inds 1want1 to know.

spork_css: media.bsd.network/media_attachments…1/378/original/3096e9a1f3889064.png has a nice screenshot of htop. I needed to do a simple config to display the jid

accelerat0r: FreeBSDs sound stack is OSSv4 compatible, but has very little to do with OSS nowadays as it does significantly more besides just the OSSv4 stuff.

debdrup: I actually know a little about that ! I've always have had a sound card with a CA106 chip inside that is supported by ossv4 and not with the in house developed driver

is currently working using oss from ports ! still kind of notice the binary package is not available in the latest package update

I'm running KDE on FreeBSD 12.3 with up-to-date quarterly packages, and my system "appears to" hang almost every time I log out. It sits on a console screen with a frozen pointer, but I'm still able to SSH in and do a clean reboot from another system. It seems to be related to Firefox and PulseAudio. I can log in and out fine unless I launch FF.

I noticed one message on the console: "Failed to create secure directory (/var/run/user/1001/pulse): No such file or directory" However, that directory does exist, it's owned by me, and it has 700 permissions. Should I be part of any particular group (like 1 of the 3 pulse groups)? Any other ideas?

vm-bhyve any recommend manager for bhyve

what bastille does for jails for bhyve?

victori: if you need jail and bhyve manager, cbsd is at your disposal

yeah, currently using bastille/vm-bhyve an all in one would be nice

i'm trying to setup ipv6 on a freebsd i'm using ovh dedicated server, when I ping6 yahoo.com and it says UDP connect no rout to host whats wrong

i'm trying to setup ipv6 on a freebsd i'm using ovh dedicated server, when I ping6 yahoo.com and it says UDP connect no rout to host whats wrong here is what I have in my rc.conf pastebin.com/W1GQf7P8

Title: hostname="sn00p"ifconfig_ix0="DHCP"ifconfig_ix0_ipv6="inet6 accept_rtadv"I - Pastebin.com

Comment out IPv6_activate_all_interfaces="YES" and IPv6_defaultrouter="IPv6_2001:41d0:303:a2ff:ff:ff:ff:ff". I don't think you need them, but I don't know how OVH does it. Then, as root, run "service netif restart", "service dhclient restart", "service routing restart"1.F Then111 try again.

Argh. Without "1.F".

it might work without rtadv if you remove those bogus IPv6_ prfixes from the paramters

and the redundant _alias0

V_PauAmma_V, i still get no route to host

Pastebin the output of "ifconfig" and "netstat -6r"

ntpd_flags is in /etc/defaults/rc.conf but nothing in /etc/rc.d/* uses it so should we take it out?
