This was my 3rd install of FreeBSD on my P3 450Mhz with a Savage4 Pro+ video card. I had gotten X to work in my previous installs, but never documented the specifics. Also I had ALWAYS had to install X from scratch - the method of /stand/sysinstall never worked for me. So finally I re-installed Freebsd with the User+X option. All the right files got installed. I got GNOME working.. but kept getting error "This is not a GNOME compatible windows manager" - or something like that. After doing some research.. I found that SOME window-managers do not work with GNOME. This MAY be your problem with KDE. TWM was my default window manager.... So I went to /usr/ports/x11-wm/sawfish. sawfish was the window-manager which I was interested in. I changed to the path shown above.. and typed - "make" without the quotes of course. I restarted X-windows and the correct window-manager was selected- "sawfish" You MIGHT want to look into this b4 "make"ing another window manager. I don't know the specifics for KDE. I found my info on dejanews.com ALSO. I had to comment my security settings in rc.conf. I never reliased this about FreeBSD - that during initial install if you select a high security setting - X or startx will not work. In my case startx didn't work as root or as other users. Try to check what I had done for your system. The good thing is, your X works!! -Q Ørjan W Tønder wrote: > im not getting KDE to work under the wheel acount,i added the exec > startkde too .xsession but it still just starts in TWM, i can run KDE > under the TWM but thats no fun :pwhat do i need todo to get the KDE to > run on the startx command ? _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

The would be the FreeBSD- questions list. However, before posting there, be sure to read the relevant sections of the FreeBSD Handbook (http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/), the relevant man pages (use "man -k " to find the relevant page if unsure), and search the FreeBSD mailing list archives. Second, there are *very* few reasons to reboot a Unix operating system. This is *not* Windows where moving the mouse requires a reboot. If you are rebooting more oftern you change hardware, then you are doing something wrong. Time to do some reading. :) Third, read the ifconfig man page: man ifconfig Pay particular attention to the up/down commands. You can change, add/delete IPs on your NICs at will, no need to restart anything. :) HTH, Freddie fcash@bigfoot.com Linux is for people who hate Windows. FreeBSD is for people that like UNIX. -- unknown To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-newbies" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-newbies Sun Oct 21 14:28:45 2001 Delivered-To: freebsd-newbies@freebsd.org Received: from pineapple.theshop.net (pineapple.theshop.net [208.128.7.7]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 823DD37B401 for ; Sun, 21 Oct 2001 14:28:43 -0700 (PDT) Received: from bsdprophet.org (plum46.theshop.net [208.128.7.161]) by pineapple.theshop.net (8.12.0/8.12.0) with ESMTP id f9LLVfgM085596; Sun, 21 Oct 2001 16:31:42 -0500 (CDT) Message-ID: <3BD33E70.8050809@bsdprophet.org> Date: Sun, 21 Oct 2001 16:30:24 -0500 From: Scott Corey User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; FreeBSD i386; en-US; rv:0.9.4) Gecko/20010922 X-Accept-Language: en-us MIME-Version: 1.0 To: Bzdik BSD Cc: freebsd-newbies@freebsd.org Subject: Re: UNIX <->Wintendo<->SAMBA List?

This sounds very familiar... we ran into exactly this some time back. AFAIR the MySQL port defaults to putting your database files in /var somewhere. The default sysinstall partition size of /var is quite tiny however, so it gets filled in an eyeblink. > Can anybody tell me how I can view the size of my partitions, how to > resize a partition, or how to create new partitions. Use df(1) to monitor the total/used/free space on all your mounted partitions. In this case, i think resizing isn't the best approach, though. Try moving your database files to a larger partition instead. We created a new "mysql" user, and put them under /home/mysql, but someplace like /usr/local/mysql should also be fine. --=20 Piet Delport Today's subliminal thought is: --17pEHd4RhPHOinZp Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQE71NI7zRUP82sZFCcRAlDMAJ48aRowbApOLE6yc7wImLYZOiXxvgCfZZak mM9l6o2amHx6jBHQ3NHRFGU= =DjCe -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --17pEHd4RhPHOinZp-- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-newbies" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-newbies Tue Oct 23 9:33: 3 2001 Delivered-To: freebsd-newbies@freebsd.org Received: from web20209.mail.yahoo.com (web20209.mail.yahoo.com [216.136.226.64]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 494B537B405 for ; Tue, 23 Oct 2001 09:33:01 -0700 (PDT) Message-ID: <20011023163300.6948.qmail@web20209.mail.yahoo.com> Received: from [63.38.205.159] by web20209.mail.yahoo.com via HTTP; Tue, 23 Oct 2001 09:33:00 PDT Date: Tue, 23 Oct 2001 09:33:00 -0700 (PDT) From: L C Subject: Need help with Xwindows To: freebsd-newbies@freebsd.org MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Sender: owner-freebsd-newbies@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk List-ID: List-Archive: (Web Archive) List-Help: (List Instructions) List-Subscribe: List-Unsubscribe: X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Hello all, I am new to X windows and after installation I try to start x windows and this is what I get, when I type startx I get: xauth:creating new authority file /home/b/.xauthority xauth:(argv):1: bad display name ":0" in "add" command Fatal server error cannot open log file "/var/log/xfree86.0.log" xinit:no such file or directory(errno2): unable to connect to xserver xinit:no such process(errno3): server error HELP ME!!!!!!!

Just a note that warning is for older monitors that werent so nifty at handling refresh rates, but I am sure that if you have a newer monitor (multi-sync) you shouldnt have a problem. A bit of research into the monitor should give you more information as well as if its a single sync monitor find out the exact sync rates and use that. Best do some research if your not sure, should be easy to track it down with your favourite search engine.

I have a strange VL-bus machine that will just not accept being booted from any kind of floppy disk (DOS, Linux, FBSD and Windows 98 boot floppies all tried so far without success) I have tried I dont know how many different combinations of different hard-disk controllers and disk types and floppy controllers, and the only time the machine ever boots normally from a floppy is if it detects NO hdd controllers at all ! otherwise it just starts reading the floppy but then hangs after 10 to 20 seconds, depending on which boot-disk In the end I got the machine running DOS and some diagnostics programs by transplanting a hard disk. I can also boot linux on it with Loadlin from the DOS partition, so Im pretty sure all the components are OK individually. My guess is it's probably just the BIOS at fault, but that is not flashable, so I need a workaround more than a cure Im crazy and should probably just abandon the machine, but apart from that it runs fine and I had plans to run it as a test-machine or spare server, once I got something installed on it - the question is just how Mark jmdupx@yahoo.com On 25 Oct 2001, at 0:40, Annelise Anderson wrote: > On Wed, 24 Oct 2001, Jens Richter wrote: > > > Hello > > I'm absolutely new to FreeBSD and I wonder if there is a complete > > HCL available.

Depending on your needs, you might find the misc/porteasy tool useful too.

It is also available at http://www.welearn.com.au/freebsd/newbies/) FreeBSD-Questions@FreeBSD.ORG is the place to send all questions about installing, configuring, running and using FreeBSD. All help requests are handled by FreeBSD-Questions, including newbies questions. FreeBSD-Newbies is different. We don't ask for help or answer how-to questions. It is a discussion forum for newbies. FreeBSD-Newbies provides a place for new FreeBSD users to meet and covers any of the activities of newbies that are not already dealt with elsewhere. Examples include helping each other to learn more on our own, finding and using resources, problem solving techniques, how to seek help elsewhere, how to use mailing lists and which lists to use, general chat, making mistakes, boasting, sharing ideas, stories, moral (but not technical) support, and taking an active part in the FreeBSD community. We take our problems and support questions to freebsd-questions, and use freebsd-newbies to meet others who are doing the same things that we do as newbies. One of the things we do together is learn more effective ways to find help when we need it. Here are some suggestions: When something doesn't work the way you expect 1. First look at the errata for your release of FreeBSD at http://www.FreeBSD.ORG/releases/ for the latest information and security advisories. 2. Search the Handbook, FAQ, and mail archives at http://www.FreeBSD.ORG/search.html 3. If you still have a question or problem, collect the output of `uname -a' and of any relevant program(s) and email your question to FreeBSD-questions@FreeBSD.ORG. Mailing lists When you have a problem that you can't solve by yourself, there's only one support mailing list and that's FreeBSD-questions@FreeBSD.ORG. FreeBSD-questions helps with installation and basic setup as well as more general and advanced questions. You don't have to actually join freebsd-questions before asking a question there. Replies to your question will normally be sent to you personally as well as to the list. Just make sure you have read and followed the guidelines for posting, because you might find them different to what you're used to. If you do subscribe to freebsd-questions you'll have the advantage of seeing all of the recent questions and their answers. Before you post to FreeBSD-questions, please read the guidelines at http://www.lemis.com/questions.html Many of the people who answer FreeBSD-questions are very knowledgeable, but they get frustrated when they get questions which are difficult to understand. http://www.lemis.com/email.html is worth reading too. If you're not sure that you can follow these guidelines, come back and ask the other newbies for help on how to post an effective question to the support mailing list. Maybe your question has been asked before. If you search the mailing list archives at http://www.freebsd.org/search.html first you might get the answer right away. It's always worth trying. Other mailing lists (http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/eresources.html#ERESOURCES-CHARTERS) cover specialised areas and many are more developer-oriented. You'll need to read their charters carefully before participating, but it's probably a good idea to ask on either -newbies or -questions for advice about where to post a more specialised question. FreeBSD-announce is a very low volume read-only list for occasional announcements, such as notice of new releases, and the Really Quick Newsletter. It's worth subscribing to FreeBSD-announce too. Manuals You'll always be expected to show that you have made some effort to use the available documentation before asking for help. That's not always as easy as it sounds! If you know what documentation you need but can't locate it, send a brief query to FreeBSD-questions. If you don't know what you need, always have trouble finding it, or can't make any sense of it when you do, ask some patient newbies to steer you in the right direction. Anyone interested in writing or reviewing documentation for FreeBSD is encouraged to join the FreeBSD Documentation Project. Details are at http://www.freebsd.org/docproj/docproj.html Other resources A resource list is available at http://www.freebsd.org/projects/newbies.html to help new and inexperienced FreeBSD users to find relevant information quickly. It includes books, on line documents and tutorials, and links to web pages that other newbies have found useful for learning. If you have a suggestion for good material to be included, please write to freebsd-newbies and tell us about it. But I have seen people asking questions here! It is quite common for people to send the wrong kind of post to a mailing list. Because we're newbies it'll certainly happen here from time to time. The best thing to do if you see a message that doesn't belong on a list is to ignore it. There's always someone around whose job it is to sort these problems out privately. The posts to the lists go straight through, whatever their content. It is going to be confusing for a little while because we're all newbies so we all make mistakes. That's OK. One thing we're going to see a fair bit is people posting questions, believing they're doing the right thing by posting here as newbies, not realising how it works. If someone answers those questions the situation will snowball. There's nothing wrong with helping someone to redirect their question to freebsd-questions, but please do so gently. There's nothing wrong with the occasional mistake either. So all questions, requests for help, etc still go to freebsd-questions as usual. Ours is more of a discussion group, a place where newbies can relax with other newbies and focus more on our successes than on our temporary imperfection. We can talk about things here that are not allowed on freebsd-questions. We're also a bit freer to make the mistakes that we need to make in order to learn. _________________________________________________________________ To Subscribe to FreeBSD-Newbies: Send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "subscribe freebsd-newbies" in the body of the message.

If you Google on the error message (and check the samba documentation) you'll probably find the Registry hack to get it working. brian -- Brian Sobolak San Francisco, California sobolak@myrealbox.com http://www.planetshwoop.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-newbies" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-newbies Sat Oct 27 16: 0:18 2001 Delivered-To: freebsd-newbies@freebsd.org Received: from mail.broadpark.no (mail.broadpark.no [217.13.4.2]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id D45B737B403 for ; Sat, 27 Oct 2001 16:00:13 -0700 (PDT) Received: from there (217-13-6-22.dd.nextgentel.com [217.13.6.22]) by mail.broadpark.no (Postfix) with SMTP id D770E7D92; Sun, 28 Oct 2001 01:00:12 +0200 (MEST) Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" From: =?iso-8859-1?q?=D8=2EW=2ET?= To: "Kastaki" Subject: Re: samba Date: Sun, 28 Oct 2001 00:58:40 +0200 X-Mailer: KMail [version 1.3] References: <20011027194633.5A73F803B@mail.broadpark.no> <014901c15f28$d88c79e0$0860ff3e@computer> In-Reply-To: <014901c15f28$d88c79e0$0860ff3e@computer> Cc: newbies@freebsd.org MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Message-Id: <20011027230012.D770E7D92@mail.broadpark.no> Sender: owner-freebsd-newbies@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk List-ID: List-Archive: (Web Archive) List-Help: (List Instructions) List-Subscribe: List-Unsubscribe: X-Loop: FreeBSD.org hello Kastaki :) well yea i assumed the same thing like 3 weeks then i discoverd that samba dosent work whit winME at all, the weirdest part is that win98 and winME should be same but it aint :/ if you are trying to connected too an win98 from an win2k box you get an error... The problem i have whit my samba is that im not authorized from this computer "win2k" too login, there i wonder if there might be an smb thing im over looking in the config that should be enabled .. my config looks like this : [global] hosts allow = 10.0.0.3 workgroup = WORKGROUP socket options = TCP_NODELAY printing = bsd printcap name = /etc/printcap load printers = yes guest account = guest remote announce = 10.0.0.255/FAB security = share thats the global bit... :) is there something im missing ? or is it just something i have overlooked? like isnt there an way too link the /etc/passwd whit the samba so persons whit an account could also login whit samba? or do i have too create users using the smbpasswd ?

Annelise Thanks, Annelise I've been studying cvs for some time and been afraid to even try it. Now, for all you following the thread, Annelise dropped a tip to us, and it finished the open circle that was my unsurety and lack of understanding with cvs. Read all you can, even if it's not totally pertinent to what you are looking for. It wasn't a direct tip to what I was pesonally unsure of, but i used tips and hints throughout this thread, combined with dogged research on the web, and I got it. I put it together. This is what makes FreeBSD & the FreeBSD community so cool. Learn to learn and share with others. It's what it's all about. It's so cool to get a killer upgrade and BillG makes no money on it :^) ...plus these upgrades really work Denny To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-newbies" in the body of the message
