You'll probably find "The C Programming Language", by Brian Kernighan and Dennis Ritchie, edition (2), a very nice book. It's old now, and it is not a book that is easy to use as a tutorial, but it is written by the same people who wrote the language, so they probably know better than a 'teach you that in 24 hours' book. -giorgos To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-newbies" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-newbies Sun Sep 16 15:38:22 2001 Delivered-To: freebsd-newbies@freebsd.org Received: from hollowman.mweb.co.za (hollowman.mweb.co.za [196.2.46.15]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 4F65737B403 for ; Sun, 16 Sep 2001 15:38:17 -0700 (PDT) Received: from siberiyan.dyndns.org ([196.30.182.207]) by hollowman.mweb.co.za (iPlanet Messaging Server 5.1 (built May 7 2001)) with SMTP id <0GJS00EBE1JNTG@hollowman.mweb.co.za> for freebsd-newbies@FreeBSD.ORG; Mon, 17 Sep 2001 00:38:14 +0200 (SAST) Received: by siberiyan.dyndns.org (sSMTP sendmail emulation); Mon, 17 Sep 2001 00:38:22 +0200 Date: Mon, 17 Sep 2001 00:38:22 +0200 From: Piet Delport Subject: Re: make buildworld with -j4 option In-reply-to: <3BA4E26D.BC599E26@bsdprophet.org> To: Scott Corey Cc: Nathan Mace , freebsd newbies Message-id: <20010917003822.B62043@athalon> MIME-version: 1.0 Content-type: multipart/signed; boundary=+pHx0qQiF2pBVqBT; protocol="application/pgp-signature"; micalg=pgp-sha1 Content-disposition: inline User-Agent: Mutt/1.3.22.1i X-Operating-System: FreeBSD 4.4-RC X-Editor: VIM - Vi IMproved 6.0av BETA (http://www.vim.org/) X-Crypto: gpg (GnuPG) 1.0.6 (http://www.gnupg.org/) X-GPG-Key-ID: 0x6B191427 X-GPG-Fingerprint: C7FF A540 2199 F7BF 1933 5640 CD15 0FF3 6B19 1427 References: <20010915141800.719c44b5.nmace85@yahoo.com> <3BA39C45.F135E9D4@bsdprophet.org> <20010915143325.2cd80e03.nmace85@yahoo.com> <3BA4E26D.BC599E26@bsdprophet.org> 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 --+pHx0qQiF2pBVqBT Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable On Sun, 16 Sep 2001 at 12:33:33 -0500, Scott Corey wrote: > Nathan Mace wrote: > > can i use the -j4 option when installing from ports as well? >=20 > yes As with building/installing world though, it's probably safer to only do the building of the ports using -j4, as in: # make -j4 build && make install --=20 Piet Delport Today's subliminal thought is: --+pHx0qQiF2pBVqBT Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQE7pSnezRUP82sZFCcRAlcBAJ4t+bVtbSJn9O1TchNCLZJivHllZACfaGCb nh/lnB9oV8uyQIm1arnVyi4= =1+tH -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --+pHx0qQiF2pBVqBT-- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-newbies" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-newbies Sun Sep 16 19: 0:54 2001 Delivered-To: freebsd-newbies@freebsd.org Received: from intrigue.willinet.net (intrigue.willinet.net [198.49.30.38]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 4AAB237B403 for ; Sun, 16 Sep 2001 19:00:51 -0700 (PDT) Received: (qmail 11433 invoked from network); 16 Sep 2001 21:00:50 -0500 Received: from ps141sux.willinet.net (HELO gomer) (mail@205.246.171.106) by intrigue.willinet.net with SMTP; 16 Sep 2001 21:00:50 -0500 Received: from lute by gomer with local (Exim 3.32 #1 (Debian)) id 15inWX-0000JG-00 for ; Sun, 16 Sep 2001 20:48:37 -0500 Date: Sun, 16 Sep 2001 20:48:37 -0500 From: Lute Mullenix To: freebsd-newbies@FreeBSD.org Subject: Re: A good C book Message-ID: <20010916204837.B1128@willinet.net> Reply-To: lute@willinet.net References: <001201c13e60$6b5b1b80$3e6bfc96@acu.edu> <20010916172439.A30544@hades.hell.gr> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline In-Reply-To: <20010916172439.A30544@hades.hell.gr> User-Agent: Mutt/1.3.20i X-Spam-Rating: intrigue.willinet.net 1.6.2 0/0/N 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 There is one other book that may be of interest to you, I have it but have not spent all that much time with it yet.

Basically the computer ``through'' which you access any computer connected to the Internet. Depending on *how* you are connecting to your ISP it may or may not be a wise idea to set this to a fixed IP address. > Will somebody please explain what the purpose of sendmail is? > I see it in all the textss, but never got simply it's purpose. > If i fetch mail from my ISP, then why do i need this running? Unix operating systems (FreeBSD being one of them) use Sendmail (or some other ``mail transfer agent'', Qmail and Postfix being two other popular choises of MTA programs) for sending outgoing mail. You might find that reading the FreeBSD Handbook a good idea. You can find it at http://www.freebsd.org by following the ``Documentation'' links of the first page. It's very good at clearing such things up. A nice book on the way that Unix systems work might also be a nice thing to look for. References of excellent two books on Unix system administration can be found in the ``new users'' article (at your usual place for FreeBSD documentation, www.FreeBSD.org). -giorgos To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-newbies" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-newbies Mon Sep 17 12:32: 7 2001 Delivered-To: freebsd-newbies@freebsd.org Received: from florida-wireless.com (mailserver.florida-wireless.com [208.62.145.34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id A638A37B410 for ; Mon, 17 Sep 2001 12:32:04 -0700 (PDT) Date: Mon, 17 Sep 2001 15:34:35 -0400 Message-Id: <200109171534.AA1250820422@florida-wireless.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii From: "brain_damaged" Reply-To: To: "freebsd" Subject: scsi drives X-Mailer: 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, I am new to all this. and a little confused.

I ran /stand/systeminstall and I get ad0 wd0 reading the handbook it said wd0 was ide before 4 and scsi was d so I am confuse. thanks mark To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-newbies" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-newbies Mon Sep 17 15:26:48 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 A453837B40A for ; Mon, 17 Sep 2001 15:26:44 -0700 (PDT) Received: from bsdprophet.org (peach14.theshop.net [206.30.143.79]) by pineapple.theshop.net (8.11.3/8.11.1) with ESMTP id f8HMPZn14549; Mon, 17 Sep 2001 17:25:36 -0500 (CDT) (envelope-from Scott@bsdprophet.org) Message-ID: <3BA678A0.42906BB3@bsdprophet.org> Date: Mon, 17 Sep 2001 17:26:40 -0500 From: Scott Corey Organization: Open Source Education Foundation X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.78 [en] (X11; U; Linux 2.2.12 i386) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: brain_damaged@florida-wireless.com Cc: freebsd Subject: Re: scsi drives References: <200109171534.AA1250820422@florida-wireless.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit 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 Well now, First 980 megs for /var is way up there. I use 100megs for my /var, and have never had any problems. Second Wd0 was used in FreeBSD 3.x. It was changed to ad0 starting I think in 4.x. And both are for ide drives. Third I am a little suprised that the file system was full on /usr. 980 megs is plenty for the ports. To give an informed answer I need to see your dmesg. Your boot dmesg is in /var/run/dmesg.boot Also I would like to see an output from your "df".

Before you can run X, you must configure it. Which Xfree were you thinking of using? 3.3.6 or 4.1 I need to know, because the setup is different. You can always go back into /stand/sysinstall and install anything including xfree. However /stand/sysinstall will only install XFree-3.3.6 not XFree86-4, it is in the ports collection. The sis 530 is supported in 3.3.6 and 4.1, so I would use it.

This is because my new computer has a A7A266 motherboard. There is one bug logged against this board, dated 6/25. I gave up hope with FreeBSD-4.3. But now 4.4 has been released. So I went and looked everywhere for information on the status of this popular board. NOTHING! The bug has never been modified. All messages to any list (including my own) inquiring as to the this mobo's support have met with stone silence or irrelevant answers (like running xf86cfg again). So, how does one determine if a bug has been fixed other than spending several hours downloading each release as it is announced, trying it out, finding it doesn't work, and calling DaemonNews to cancel the next subscription ship? Short question: how do I get a developer's attention so I can get someone to work on this problem?

I hope my post didn't come off as whiny, because I certainly didn't mean for it to. I am only trying to find a passage out of this maze, and was hoping someone knew where the secret door was.

If that doesn't happen, you enter a bug report. You say that there is a "bug logged". Is this a bug report? If so, what's its status?

I've just installed the FreeBSD 4.3 on my laptop to have a try, but I'm unable to have a working modem connection. It is probably a very simple problem, but I'm not an expert ... :-( Using the 'ppp term' I can have the modem sending back something (i.e, AT OK), but nothing works when I use a 'ppp dial' script or 'chat'. I've been through a number of howto and faq pages ... but still haven't found a working solution. Do you know where I can find some detailed pppd/chat configuration examples and explanations?

If I connect trough a hub to this NIC I can send a ping and get a replay. But when I configure my IE to use this FreeBSD as a proxy I get the message page not found. I also can't ping a server or an IP-number on the net. I guess it has something to do with the DNS configuration. I downloaded and installed a DHCP server for my FreeBSD machine. But I don't know how to configure it. The DNS server does it has to be the DNS server of my provider? Do I need to configure a gateway? Please help me. I don't know nothing about FreeBSD (trying to learn) I know the basics of networking.

All of them? How can one determine who is working on a >bug? Nothing is listed in the bug report. If there is nothing in the bug report database, it may indeed mean that nobody is working on it. In this case, you may want to ask on -hackers, or -developers if someone could take a look at it. There is often a disconnect between the people who are knowledgeable about the code in question, and the bug report database. At times, the people who know what the code does and what the answer is aren't aware of the PR report, so bringing it up again is a way to get their attention. In fact, PR 28418 (which I assume you're talking about) contains a very nice summary of the problem, down to identifying exactly what part of the code is failing (although not why). -- Jonathan P.S.: Just by looking at the this particular PR, my guess is that either the code has a bug, or the board's BIOS is lying about what it supports, causing a crash. Try turning off MTRR support in your BIOS.

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.

Hi Raymond, If your prompt changes to all caps or PPP, you're connected. You've also lost that prompt for the duration of your connection, so open up another terminal using your ALT Function keys. Running a trace route or a ping to a URL is a good connection test. When you're finished, return to the terminal with the PPP prompt and type the word by.
