These represent problem reports covering all versions including experimental development code and obsolete releases. Bugs can be in one of several states: o - open A problem report has been submitted, no sanity checking performed. a - analyzed The report has been examined by a team member and evaluated. f - feedback The problem has been solved, and the originator has been given a patch or a fix has been committed. The PR remains in this state pending a response from the originator. s - suspended The problem is not being worked on. This is a prime candidate for somebody who is looking for a project to do.

Vinum is part of FreeBSD, and is not a third party ported application. See /sys/modules/vinum and /sys/dev/vinum for the module compile directory (i.e., type ``make install'' in that directory to install the vinum module) and the actual Vinum source code, respectively.

Sorry for the no-update last week, but there wasn't much to report on due to holidays, vacations, etc.. What's done: o Chapter 2 - Install (I committed this earlier this evening) o Chapter 4 - Ports o Chapter 16 - Advanced Networking (YP/NIS section) [1] o Chapter 17 - Electronic Mail What's being worked on: o Chapter 7 - Printing - Joel Sutton o Chapter 15 - PPP (PPPoE section) - myself o Chapter 16 - Advanced Networking (DNS section) - Nick Esborn [1] On another note, Bill Swingle will also be taking on another section starting next week sometime when he returns from vacation. I'll keep everyone posted as to what that is as soon as I know. We've also just brought Greg Sutter on board to help out with the handbook as well. For those of you who don't know Greg, he's the guy responsible for the Daemon News layout and can be found on various FreeBSD.org mailing lists. He's busily brushing up on his DocBook skills and we all should be seeing some good stuff out of him soon. Welcome aboard :-) One last thing of note, I have somewhat of a rough todo list available for those interested.. http://www.freebsd.org/~jim/handbook/handbook.todo It's not very in depth, but it should provide a general idea of what we're hoping to accomplish. [1] I'll be getting to the Advanced Networking chapter as soon as I'm finished with the PPPoE section of Chapter 15 I'll be starting work on tonight or tomorrow. I'll definitely be committing the YP/NIS section with the restructuring of that chapter and will also commit the DNS section at that time if it's complete. - jim -- - jim mock - walnut creek cdrom/freebsd test labs - jim@luna.cdrom.com - - phone: 1.925.691.2800 x.3814 - fax: 1.925.674.0821 - jim@FreeBSD.org - To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-doc" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-doc Mon Jan 10 20:32:14 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-doc@freebsd.org Received: from bbcon.com.au (firewall.bbcon.com.au [203.28.19.210]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 060C115092 for ; Mon, 10 Jan 2000 20:32:03 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from jsutton@bbcon.com.au) Received: from firewall.bbcon.com.au (stargate [10.0.0.1]) by bbcon.com.au (8.9.2/8.9.2) with ESMTP id PAA18238; Tue, 11 Jan 2000 15:31:51 +1100 (EST) (envelope-from jsutton@bbcon.com.au) Received: from localhost (jsutton@localhost) by firewall.bbcon.com.au (8.9.3/8.9.2) with ESMTP id PAA57313; Tue, 11 Jan 2000 15:31:52 +1100 (EST) (envelope-from jsutton@bbcon.com.au) X-Authentication-Warning: stargate.home: jsutton owned process doing -bs Date: Tue, 11 Jan 2000 15:31:52 +1100 (EST) From: Joel Sutton X-Sender: jsutton@stargate.home To: Neil Blakey-Milner Cc: FreeBSD Documentation Project Subject: Re: Some minor Handbook reorganization.

I think moving the hardware compatibility list is a good idea. It doesn't seem to be in a logical place at the moment. In my opinion it should be at the end or up in the installation section. Since it is so large, an appendix seems more appropriate. What about the "Supported Configurations" section in "Installing FreeBSD". This is also a similar sort of list. Could it be removed? It seems silly to maintain two lists.

That is not to say that the manual pages are unimportant, far from it. It is just that they are intimately tied to specific systems of FreeBSD, and most of the time the best person to write the manual page is the person that wrote that part of FreeBSD. This leaves me a bit confused about PR's to man pages. Should PRs with man page patches be sent in under a different category than "docs"? "misc"? I figured that one of the quickest ways I can actually do something for this project is to once-over man pages, look at PRs (open) dealing with man page issues, and try to improve existing man pages where I know they lack (or things might have been explained just a hair better and thus it might save a newbie some hair follicles). I recently sent in PR docs/15980 with a small snippet to rc.conf.5. I'm just wondering if I should send future man updates (if I can do more :) under a different PR category, or what? This goes along with another post I made from work today about "low-hanging fruit." I'd consider small patches to man pages which "add some value" low hanging fruit. Do committers in the FDP look at PRs related to man pages or is that left for other committers (and do those other committers say "oh, I'll leave that one for the doc boys" and we have a catch .22)? Trying to learn to contribute, and I wanna get things straight in my mind :) Thanks, -Jr -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= John Reynolds Chandler Capabilities Engineering, CDS, Intel Corporation jreynold@sedona.ch.intel.com My opinions are mine, not Intel's.

(insert the word "and") http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/history.html "Those plans came to a rude halt when Bill Jolitz suddenly decided to withdraw his sanction from the project and without any clear indication of what would be done instead." should be "Those plans came to a rude halt when Bill Jolitz suddenly decided to withdraw his sanction from the project without any clear indication of what would be done instead." (delete the word "and") http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/relnotes.html "FreeBSD is a freely available, full source 4.4BSD-Lite2 based release for Intel i386/i486/Pentium/PentiumPro/Pentium II (or compatible) and DEC Alpha based computer systems." Should "Pentium III" be added to this list? http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/relnotes.html " To compile a port, you simply change to the directory of the program you wish to install, type make all followed by make install after successful compilation and let the system do the rest." Is "make all" necessary? Doesn't "make install" do an implicit "make all"? If so, why make things more complicated by turning one step into two? same page: "(Almost) every port is also provided as a pre-compiled ``package'' which can be installed with a simple command (pkg_add) by those who do not wish to compile their own ports from source. " Might want to mention that it is usually not necessary to compile from source, and using pkg_add is usually preferred. Then again, that may be more detail than is appropriate on this page. http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/install.html "If you plan on installing via anonymous FTP then the installation floppies are all you need to download and create" would be improved if phrased as "If you plan to install via anonymous FTP then the installation floppies are all you need to download and create" (i.e. change "on installing" to "to install"). (same page, i.e. http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/install.html) I think that the introductory material for Chapter 2 (i.e. everthing on this page before the start of section 2.1) has grown to be not introductory. It seems to me that most of it actually belongs in Section 2.2, "Preparing for the Installation". >How-To-Repeat: Read referenced web pages. >Fix: As described, if deemed appropriate.

You must install the MicroCrud OS first, then FreeBSD. Win95/98 installations blindly assume they're the only OS on the hard disk and happily overwrite you master boot record with their own (meaning they'll destroy the boot manager FreeBSD installs for you). You should have a look at the FAQ and Handbook which can be found by browsing the main site http://www.FreeBSD.org/ Thoroughly understand what you're doing and make sure you have adequate backups of your current Win95 disks (because you'll have to partition the disk in order to dual-boot). > Thank you. -Jr -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= | John Reynolds WCCG, CCE, Higher Levels of Abstraction | | Intel Corporation MS: CH6-210 Phone: 480-554-9092 pgr: 602-868-6512 | | jreynold@sedona.ch.intel.com http://www-aec.ch.intel.com/~jreynold/ | =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-doc" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-doc Tue Jan 11 18:10: 8 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-doc@freebsd.org Received: from freefall.freebsd.org (freefall.FreeBSD.ORG [204.216.27.21]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 4533914FA4 for ; Tue, 11 Jan 2000 18:10:04 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from gnats@FreeBSD.org) Received: (from gnats@localhost) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.9.3/8.9.2) id SAA50174; Tue, 11 Jan 2000 18:10:03 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from gnats@FreeBSD.org) Received: from bbcon.com.au (firewall.bbcon.com.au [203.28.19.210]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 08072152DA for ; Tue, 11 Jan 2000 18:08:21 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from jsutton@firewall.bbcon.com.au) Received: from firewall.bbcon.com.au (stargate [10.0.0.1]) by bbcon.com.au (8.9.2/8.9.2) with ESMTP id NAA19578; Wed, 12 Jan 2000 13:08:16 +1100 (EST) (envelope-from jsutton@firewall.bbcon.com.au) Received: (from jsutton@localhost) by firewall.bbcon.com.au (8.9.3/8.9.2) id NAA63755; Wed, 12 Jan 2000 13:08:17 +1100 (EST) (envelope-from jsutton) Message-Id: <200001120208.NAA63755@firewall.bbcon.com.au> Date: Wed, 12 Jan 2000 13:08:17 +1100 (EST) From: jsutton@bbcon.com.au Reply-To: jsutton@bbcon.com.au To: FreeBSD-gnats-submit@freebsd.org X-Send-Pr-Version: 3.2 Subject: docs/16075: Outdated URL in www/en/news/press.sgml Sender: owner-freebsd-doc@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org >Number: 16075 >Category: docs >Synopsis: Outdated URL in www/en/news/press.sgml >Confidential: no >Severity: non-critical >Priority: low >Responsible: freebsd-doc >State: open >Quarter: >Keywords: >Date-Required: >Class: change-request >Submitter-Id: current-users >Arrival-Date: Tue Jan 11 18:10:03 PST 2000 >Closed-Date: >Last-Modified: >Originator: Joel Sutton >Release: FreeBSD 3.3-RELEASE i386 >Organization: Busy Bee Consulting >Environment: FreeBSD stargate.home 3.3-RELEASE FreeBSD 3.3-RELEASE #0: Tue Dec 21 17:18:52 EST 1999 root@stargate.home:/usr/src/sys/compile/OFFICE i386 >Description: Article from SAMag has an outdated URL.

Well, as I said above, Alexey Zelkin and Jordan K. Hubbard are our main PR persons, with Alexey doing an excellent job at maintaining our vendor pages. I think (and Alexey please correct me if wrong) that you would need to create/submit an entry like the others on http://www.freebsd.org/commercial/hardware.html to Alexey and he will maintain it.

While these attributes could be used on paragraphs, or smaller elements, generally I expect we'll only be using them for notes or similar.

This actually makes things easier, as we need to retain the directory structure when things are installed. There are two ways to do this that spring to mind at the moment. The first is to keep all the information in the top level Makefile, as it currently is. Have that Makefile contain an IMAGES variable, and make sure the contents of this variable includes the names of the directories; IMAGES= hw/foo.gif contrib/bar.gif and so on. The .sgml files will reference the images with the paths in them. This is fine, because the HTML files are all put in the top level directory anyway. The install target can use some magic with the dirname command on each entry in the IMAGES variable, to ensure that installation directories exist. Approach number two is to put a Makefile in each of the subdirectories. The top level Makefile can then contain a SUBDIR entry for each of these subdirectories, and we can recurse down in to them calling an 'install' target in each one. I don't like this second approach much, as it smacks of making the problem overcomplicated. Does that make sense? In the next week or so I plan on importing Matt Dillon's recent DaemonNews article in to the articles/ tree (I've already spoken to Matt and the DN people about this). This will involve images, so can act as a test bed for image handling in the doc/ tree.

Go to a section of a .sgml file, something like this; ... A random title ... Now, suppose you start thinking about adding a new section between the end of the first and the beginning of the next . So you move the cursor to be in between them, and hit TAB. Emacs moves the cursor in four spaces for you, to the correct indentation level for this. Now, change your mind, and decide that this section isn't needed, or is in the wrong location. Move the cursor off the line. The four spaces remain. It's not really an editor bug, as there's no way Emacs could guess your intentions in this case. From what I can recall, CVS has a mechanism to automatically process documents before they are committed. If we could have the following run over every .sgml file just before it's committed, I think we could solve the problem; perl -pe 's/^\s+$/\n/' (reads from STDIN, writes to STDOUT). All this does is convert any line that contains only plain text to just a single new line. If this is done every time anything is committed to the tree we take the repository bloat hit once, and then never have to worry about it again. I can't think of any circumstances where this would cause problems with the actual content -- only lines that consist only of white space characters are going to be affected, and, by their nature, changes to them aren't going to affect the content -- even in things like lines that consist only of whitespace aren't important, as long as the notion of a 'blank' line is retained. We wouldn't even need to update all the files at once. A file will be fixed automatically the first time it is committed to after we make this change.

I worry about > unexpected trouble. Is that enough to make these changes by hand? The issue with making the changes by hand is that if someone forgets, then you take a repository bloat hit as and when the problem is fixed. Putting in this sort of filter fixes it before the file enters the repository, so there's no bloat. Instead of making it a filter, it could just issue a (fatal) error, forcing the committer to fix it before they commit. > Should we care about this filter to describe topic like this thread? > (It must contain spaces only line in .) I can't think of any situations where something like The next line contains some spaces that are vitally important. would occur, outside of an obfuscated Perl programming contest. And even if that was the case, we would need some way of representing different types of white space.

Found a few typos and a bunch of largely stylistic things that I thought could be improved. URLs are the web pages on which the errors were found. http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/install.html "It can be installed through a variety of methods including anonymous FTP (assuming you have network connectivity), CDROM, floppy disk, tape, an MS-DOS partition, or even NFS." Doesn't explicitly explain that installation can be done via modem (newbies may not read that into "network connectivity"). I hate to make this sentence any longer, but how about something like: "It can be installed through a variety of methods including anonymous FTP (assuming you have Internet connectivity via modem or local network), CDROM, floppy disk, tape, an MS-DOS partition, or even NFS." Note I also changed "network" to "Internet". Someone who reads the entire installation procedure before starting won't be confused by this, anyway, so I'm probably being too picky here. same page, i.e. http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/install.html "If you plan on installing FreeBSD via anonymous FTP, the only thing you will need are the installation floppies." would sound better as "If you plan to install FreeBSD via anonymous FTP, the only thing you will need are the installation floppies." Changed "on installing" to "to install". This is starting to get into matters of author's style, so I won't worry if you don't change this. same page, i.e. http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/install.html "For more information on obtaining FreeBSD, see the Obtaining FreeBSD section of the Appendix." sounds better as "For more information about obtaining FreeBSD, see the Obtaining FreeBSD section of the Appendix." Changed "on obtaining" to "about obtaining". Again, this is getting a little picky, but I decided to mention it anyway. http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/install-guide.html "If you find something missing, please let us know about it by sending email to the FreeBSD documentation project mailing list " This sentence has no period at the end. I guess it belongs after the link. http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/install-guide.html In subsection 2.2.1.3. Before installing from Floppies. "If you must install from floppy disk (which we suggest you do not do), either do unsupported hardware or simply because you insist on doing things the hard way,..." should be "If you must install from floppy disk (which we suggest you do not do), either due to unsupported hardware or simply because you insist on doing things the hard way,..." Changed "do" to "due to". same page, i.e. http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/install-guide.html In subsection 2.2.1.4. Before Installing from MS-DOS. "To prepare for an installation from an MS-DOS partition, copy the files from the distribution into a directory named c:\FreeBSD." How about "To prepare for an installation from an MS-DOS partition, copy the files from the distribution into a directory named, for example, c:\FreeBSD." Added ", for example,". On older systems with multiple partitions, C: usually has the least free space. No point in implying that you must use the C: drive, even though this is clarified a little later. I know I'm being nit-picky again. same page, i.e. http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/install-guide.html In subsection 2.2.1.5. Before Installing from QIC/SCSI Tape. Another picky thing that is largely a matter of style here: "Note: When going to do the installation, the tape must be in the drive before booting from the boot floppy." reads better as "Note: When starting the installation, the tape must be in the drive before booting from the boot floppy." Changed "going to do" to "starting". same page, i.e. http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/install-guide.html In subsection 2.2.1.6. Before Installing over a Network. "Make sure that you have your service provider's information handy as you will need to know it fairly soon in the installation process." reads better as "Make sure that you have your service provider's information handy as you will need to know it fairly early in the installation process." Changed "soon" to "early". same page, i.e. http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/install-guide.html "The data rate over the parallel port is much higher than what is typically possible over a serial line (up to 50k/sec), thus resulting in a quicker installation." I'd be more explicit, change "50k/sec" to "50kbytes/sec" or something similar. same page, i.e. http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/install-guide.html "FreeBSD supports most common PC ethernet cards, a table of supported cards (and their required settings) is provided...". I think the comma after "ethernet cards" would do better as a semicolon. same page, i.e. http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/install-guide.html "You will also need to know your IP address on the network, the netmask value for your address class, and the name of your machine." Should probably mention that the IP address can be dynamically- assigned if using ppp. same page, i.e. http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/install-guide.html "FTP installation may be done from any FreeBSD mirror site containing a reasonably up-to-date version of FreeBSD 3.4." Do you mean to say "...version of FreeBSD.", without the version number? The reason for the version number isn't obvious to me. same page, i.e. http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/install-guide.html In subsection 2.2.1.6.2. Before Installing via FTP. "For all FTP transfers, use ``Active'' mode. This will not work through firewalls, byt will often work with older FTP servers that do not support passive mode." "byt" should be "but". same page, i.e. http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/install-guide.html In subsection 2.2.2. Installing FreeBSD "It may take us a little while to reach that objective, but nonetheless, it is still our objective :-) " This sentence doesn't have a period, although I guess the emoticon counts as closing punctuation. 8-) >How-To-Repeat: Read the referenced web pages. >Fix: I'll leave that up to you. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-doc" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-doc Thu Jan 13 21:54:24 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-doc@freebsd.org Received: from freefall.freebsd.org (freefall.FreeBSD.ORG [204.216.27.21]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id A429F1509E; Thu, 13 Jan 2000 21:54:23 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from jim@FreeBSD.org) Received: (from jim@localhost) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.9.3/8.9.2) id VAA71308; Thu, 13 Jan 2000 21:54:22 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from jim@FreeBSD.org) Date: Thu, 13 Jan 2000 21:54:22 -0800 (PST) From: Message-Id: <200001140554.VAA71308@freefall.freebsd.org> To: jim@FreeBSD.org, freebsd-doc@FreeBSD.org, jim@FreeBSD.org Subject: Re: docs/16116: More Handbook typos and misc. observations.

Because of this expansion, I am looking for writers to cover this topic. I'm looking for very knowlegable IT and administration types who are looking to make some spare income writing about a topic near and dear to them - BSD. If anyone is interested contact me at jwallen@techrepublic.com and we'll talk. I'm looking for people to submit sample writings and will need to get content coming in asap. We pay our beginning writers .25 cents per word and are looking for articles that are approx 2500 words per. Writers should be able to generate 2-4 articles per month and content should be very technical in nature.

Yes. We can use entity references to represent white spaces. To use them, we don't need "only white space" line in *.sgml sources.
