I would like to raise this subject again. Would it be any problem to commit the changes to sys/i386/include/npx.h to 3-STABLE as well? I have tried there and it makes acroread 4.05 work...

Some more details might be helpful. What sort of "disk" do you have (i.e. virtual, plain, raw?). In what way does it fail to boot? > > Is the Fullscreen mode disabled because vmware only seems to see the > sysmouse? (I run PS/2 and not sysmouse :/ ) No. Fullscreen mode more specifically does not work if you enter a text mode (e.g. you are in a DOS box in win9x and hit alt-enter). VMware will attempt, under these circumstances, to actually set up and use a Linux vty for those circumstances, and the linuxulator is not up to it. You will end up crashing the guest.

But i got it to work now, if i enter a few DEL's in the xterm i started vmware from it continues to boot properly :) I run it on a virtual disk, but vmware says it lies in a networked fs, but it's on a local fs. > > Is the Fullscreen mode disabled because vmware only seems to see the > > sysmouse?

But why does it says it uses a sysmouse? I used sysmouse when i installed vmware, but i changed it after it complaining about that full screen mode was disabled.

Disabling EMM386 may help. Have you tried that? Press Ctrl during early DOS stage to enter the startup menu, then choose "Step-by-step confirmation" and say no for EMM386.

I'm surprised the emulator maintainers didn't respond to this... I don't plan to change the default FPU control word in the 3.x branch, because it is a too surprising behaviour change for a -STABLE and 3.x is dead anyway (the latter implies that I am just killing my last 3.x machine I could test this on). I don't think the other FPU-interestedt people think different. The matter is also a bit more complicated for the Linux emulator since different versions of libc/kernel combinations do different FPU cw initialization.

The only reason that config screen exists is to supply a mouse to text screen apps that may run in full-screen mode (or without Windows at all), which vmware does by using a real vty device (which, again, the Linuxulator can't do).

Folks, I am surprised that this affected the Linux emulator. Emulators should set the default FPU control word to what the native kernel would, they should not inherit this value from the one that FreeBSD assigns to its native processes. Although FreeBSD-4.0 now defaults to what Linux and Solaris expect, this should be fixed in the Linux and Solaris emulators. Because the FreeBSD control word may still be set to the old value by users and/or a dynamic scheme for FreeBSD processes may be implemented. --------------------------------- snap ---------------------------- -Andre To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-emulation" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-emulation Mon Apr 3 13:28:15 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-emulation@freebsd.org Received: from gvr.gvr.org (gvr.gvr.org [194.151.74.97]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 7E96237B630 for ; Mon, 3 Apr 2000 13:26:51 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from guido@gvr.org) Received: by gvr.gvr.org (Postfix, from userid 657) id 31435A85A; Mon, 3 Apr 2000 22:24:39 +0200 (CEST) Date: Mon, 3 Apr 2000 22:24:39 +0200 From: Guido van Rooij To: Andrew Gallatin Cc: Matthew Dillon , nsayer@kfu.com, freebsd-emulation@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: VMware locks FreeBSD 4.0 solid Message-ID: <20000403222439.A15676@gvr.gvr.org> References: <38E3FB31.3DD4D170@sftw.com> <14564.53252.962047.551231@grasshopper.cs.duke.edu> <200003311728.JAA29464@apollo.backplane.com> <14565.2133.162680.554248@grasshopper.cs.duke.edu> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.95.6i In-Reply-To: <14565.2133.162680.554248@grasshopper.cs.duke.edu>; from Andrew Gallatin on Fri, Mar 31, 2000 at 03:27:01PM -0500 Sender: owner-freebsd-emulation@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org On Fri, Mar 31, 2000 at 03:27:01PM -0500, Andrew Gallatin wrote: > > To follow up: Taking MFS out of the picture seems to clear up the > problems.

There are lots of reasons that execution may temporarily return to the user level app (e.g. to service i/o). You don't indicate if the system is UP or MP; if the latter try a UP system. I'm also assuming you're running from a virtual disk and not a raw partition. Otherwise look for FreeBSD changes related to handling timers; that's always been a tricky part of the integration process. Of course all this is just wild guessing...

They even discussed a special system call to ask the kernel for the default before setting it (and thereby turning the application into a FPU user - maybe unneded). I don't know what the end result was. Anyway, we can be sure that differen Linux binaries/libc assume different ways, so "somebody" must do some research here...

I have a problem with the linux-communicator. At Office, running a FreeBSD-only NIS/NFS-ed network with FreeBSD as NIS server (using master.passwd, and not listening to ports above 1023 for pw info) it fails with a bus error, while it works at home, on a standalone box. I've tried running it on the nfs server, to make it as local as possible, but it doesn't help. I believe that nis is properly configured in /compat/linux/etc (compat/linux/etc/yp.conf is ok, and so is /compat/linux/etc/nsswitch.conf). This happens with a local user too, so I don't think NIS is involved this time. It is FreeBSD 4-STABLE, rather fresh sources. I am running linprocfs, but it happened before that as well. communicator-linux-4.72 fails with a bus error, and truss gives this: ... syscall linux_sigprocmask(0x0,0x0,0x8dcd278) returns 0 (0x0) syscall gettimeofday(0xbfbfda50,0x0) returns 0 (0x0) syscall linux_sigprocmask(0x2,0x8f96078,0x0) returns 0 (0x0) syscall linux_sigprocmask(0x0,0x0,0x8f96078) returns 0 (0x0) syscall gettimeofday(0x50025ef0,0x0) returns 0 (0x0) syscall linux_sigprocmask(0x2,0x8dcd378,0x0) returns 0 (0x0) syscall linux_sigprocmask(0x0,0x8db8c68,0x50011ee8) returns 0 (0x0) syscall linux_select(0x50011c50) returns 0 (0x0) syscall gettimeofday(0x50011c1c,0x0) returns 0 (0x0) SIGNAL 14 SIGNAL 14 syscall linux_sigprocmask(0x2,0x50011ee8,0x0) returns 0 (0x0) syscall linux_sigreturn(0x50011be0) returns 0 (0x0) SIGNAL 11 SIGNAL 11 syscall getpid() returns 24668 (0x605c) SIGNAL 10 SIGNAL 10 Process stopped because of: 16 process exit, rval = 138 Bus error Any idead? /Palle To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-emulation" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-emulation Thu Apr 6 15: 2:22 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-emulation@freebsd.org Received: from dt051n0b.san.rr.com (dt051n0b.san.rr.com [204.210.32.11]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id BEE6C37C020 for ; Thu, 6 Apr 2000 15:02:15 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from Doug@gorean.org) Received: from slave (doug@slave [10.0.0.1]) by dt051n0b.san.rr.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id OAA36147; Thu, 6 Apr 2000 14:58:04 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from Doug@gorean.org) Date: Thu, 6 Apr 2000 14:58:04 -0700 (PDT) From: Doug Barton X-Sender: doug@dt051n0b.san.rr.com To: The Hermit Hacker Cc: Marcel Moolenaar , freebsd-emulation@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Legato client for Linux under FreeBSD 4.0 ...

By giving free phones away, we get valuable customer feedback and a great Word-of-Mouth effect. All you have to do, is to forward this message to 8 friends. After two weeks delivery time, you will receive a Ericsson T18. If you forward it to 20 friends, you will receive the brand new Ericsson R320 WAP-phone.
