If you do "grep sis /sys/i386/conf/LINT", then you will this entry. device sis # Silicon Integrated Systems SiS 900/SiS 7016 Be sure to make copy of LINT and GENERIC. Start your kernel customization on copied GENERIC, not the others. Put above entry into your own kernel then compile it. If you don't know how to prepare, create, compile then install your own kernel, consult handbook or follow this handbook link from freebsd.org: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html Read entire chapter, then proceeed to your kernel creation. Be sure that you have kernel.GENERIC available in your root partition. If something goes wrong and you need to boot to make amend, you can always do this: 1. At booting point where it tells you could interupt the booting, interupt it by pressing space bar. 2. at "ok" prompt, type this: unload boot kernel.GENERIC Now system boots and you should make your adjustment.

Again, consult handbook for how to install. Do not worry about your SiS 900 NIC for now, just install. Kernel customization comes next, not first. UNIX is not like MicroSoft products. It takes more thinking and knowledge to pull this through. Get your hands on some books first to get yourself familiar with UNIX. I recommend "The Complete FreeBSD" by Greg Lehey. It is bit outdated but still serves as good guide for freeBSD. If you don't know what you're doing, then this book is your friend. If you want general UNIX knowledge, then get yourself a "UNIX system administration handbook, 3rd edition" by Nemeth, Snyder, Seebass and Hein.

Check if there aren't any core file(s) exist on your machine, if there are, get rid of it. Don't get scared about it. It is created when progam crashes abnormally and usually contains nothing that concerns normal user, unless you are code hacker. Next, check your /tmp. Usually most of what is in there disappears when you reboot, which means you can loose them too. Also, if you know which kernel you are using, then leave your kernel and kernel.GENERIC, and dispatch those kernel.old. They are there for backup purpose but if you are really short on space, you might delete them too. Above will usually solve your problems with it. If you are still short of space, then check what is mounted on /. If for some reason you have /sys mounted on / and not linked to /usr/src/sys, then fix that.

SO most of the concepts of linux kernel are clear and I am very much accoustomed to the linux kernel's source code. But Right now I've shifted to the FreeBSD and I am facing problems to basically understand the kernel source code that where are files for process management , files for drivers etc. and what ways does it differs from linux. I am not able to get even any kind of thorough documentation of FreeBSD. So, can u guys help me out. Bye _________________________________________________________________ Tired of spam?

What are people using to only allow ssh from certain addressees? I'm a recent FreeBSD convert, from Linux. In linuxland I used both iptables and then I would edit /etc/pam.d/sshd and add this line account required /lib/security/pam_access.so to enable the pam module that allowed me to specify hosts/networks in /etc/security/access.conf. I'd rather not do tcp wrappers. Is there an equivalent way to do this with pam in FreeBSD? I know about ipfilter and I'll be doing that, I just like to have another layer.

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.

With the relaxation of permit issues in CH, he tells me that they will not require swiss permits to qualify. He speciafically needs people in the J2EE Corba arena, but is interested to see any people with a good Java or C++ background, especially German speakers. He may also need some German speaking support (2ND AND 3RD LINE) people for the project as well. Please drop me a mail which I will forward to him if of interest.
