It is still a bit unfinished at the moment, but already works very well (disclaimer: it's mostly me who wrote it). However, a bit of work is needed before it can be considered to be committed. As I am in the final stage of my life at university, I will not have time to do this work now, but I can promise that I will start working on it again no later than July. That's also the reason that it did not show up in the last FreeBSD Status Report, there siimply are no news to report. cheers, t.

Basically the missing stuff is all the tickets on https://projects.fsck.ch/profile/ plus one or two modifications i have in mind that simplify changes to /etc and manual profile selection. Plus tighter integration with power- management if possible (profile.sh needs to know what triggered a suspend command, ie low bat, user suspend by command line, lid switch or button). If you want to help you could either start with some very simple tickets (#13 or #14) or quite simple ones (#4, #5) or thinking about #2. If you want to help with powermanagement integration, I can give you a more detailed description of the problem (nate@ requested one some time ago, but i don't know if he had time to work on it). The manpage definitely needs improvements, but i'd like to leave that until later, because i expect a few things to change in the handling of profile.sh. However, I don't have any time to answer questions during the next two months, so if you want to help, you're on your own until then. thanks, t.

If your projector can only do XGA (1024x768) and your display can do more (mine does SGXA+, 1440x1050) you've got to switch to a lower resolution. If there a tool that allows normal, non-root users to switch to different resolutions? I can easily have two copies of XF86config and swap them as root, but a secure way for doing that as non-root would be good. cheers, Rainer From owner-freebsd-mobile@FreeBSD.ORG Tue Apr 26 08:27:02 2005 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-mobile@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.FreeBSD.org (mx1.freebsd.org [216.136.204.125]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 5B9F716A4CE for ; Tue, 26 Apr 2005 08:27:02 +0000 (GMT) Received: from mailhub03.unibe.ch (mailhub03.unibe.ch [130.92.9.70]) by mx1.FreeBSD.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id D3A1443D49 for ; Tue, 26 Apr 2005 08:27:01 +0000 (GMT) (envelope-from roth@droopy.unibe.ch) Received: from localhost (scanhub02.unibe.ch [130.92.254.66]) by mailhub03.unibe.ch (Postfix) with ESMTP id C72FE14E7D; Tue, 26 Apr 2005 10:27:01 +0200 (CEST) Received: from mailhub03.unibe.ch ([130.92.9.70]) by localhost (scanhub02.unibe.ch [130.92.254.66]) (amavisd-new, port 10024) with LMTP id 15248-12-41; Tue, 26 Apr 2005 10:26:57 +0200 (CEST) Received: from asterix.unibe.ch (asterix.unibe.ch [130.92.64.4]) by mailhub03.unibe.ch (Postfix) with ESMTP id 6018B14D27; Tue, 26 Apr 2005 10:27:01 +0200 (CEST) Received: from droopy.unibe.ch (droopy [130.92.64.20]) by asterix.unibe.ch (8.11.7p1+Sun/8.11.7) with ESMTP id j3Q8QxW07591; Tue, 26 Apr 2005 10:26:59 +0200 (MET DST) Received: (from roth@localhost) by droopy.unibe.ch (8.12.10+Sun/8.12.9/Submit) id j3Q8QxBb023168; Tue, 26 Apr 2005 10:26:59 +0200 (MEST) Date: Tue, 26 Apr 2005 10:26:59 +0200 From: Tobias Roth To: Jeremie Le Hen Message-ID: <20050426082659.GB23119@droopy.unibe.ch> Mail-Followup-To: Jeremie Le Hen , freebsd-mobile@freebsd.org References: <8697475050424091046147156@mail.gmail.com> <20050424191550.GA4689@csh.rit.edu> <20050425065437.GB8942@droopy.unibe.ch> <20050425093834.GB91329@obiwan.tataz.chchile.org> <20050425120636.GA15642@droopy.unibe.ch> <20050425163640.GD91329@obiwan.tataz.chchile.org> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline In-Reply-To: <20050425163640.GD91329@obiwan.tataz.chchile.org> User-Agent: Mutt/1.4i X-message-flag: Warning!

You can have multiple x.org (or XFree86) config files, and then load the appropriate one when you start X. I believe you can also have one config file, and have two setups in it for screens, and then choose which one to use when you start X. People use that feature for dual screen capabilities. I have a Dell D610, and I have used the external VGA a few times. You can set a different resolution for it too if you want. Also - the acpi_video module does allow you to turn on/off the different video ports it finds. Mine sees all three (VGA, LCD, Svideo).

Your suggestion seemed to do what I wanted, but unfortunately, it gave me a kernel panic 14 seconds into the boot/startup process. Maybe I'll just stick the kldload command into /etc/rc.local or some such thing. I'd still like to hear from anyone who knows why the "make depend" before kernel compilation fails. (See my original posting above.) Also, FWIW, I still haven't figured out how to get ndis to work for the Dell (Broadcom) 1450 Dual-band Wireless LAN card. I've posted the problem twice on freebsd-questions and once here, along with the error messages that result, but have gotten no useful replies. I suppose I'll have to try the freebsd-net list next.

I have mandriva linux running without a problem but would like something more powerfull. I been browsing the supported hadware docs http://www.freebsd.org/releases/5.3R/hardware-i386.html the archives and google/bsd. I have found some information but it is incomplete. I have three pieces of hardware I am having trouble finding information about. Video Chipset : ATI Radeon Mobility 9000 (M9) Lf (AGP) Some information in the archive but am still lost. Wireless device : Intel PRO/Wireless LAN 2100 3B Mini PCI Adapter I have read that I need to download and install a third party driver from http://damien.bergamini.free.fr/ipw/index.html But to install the driver I have to upgrade to CURRENT, something I am not really keen on as I am not a developer/hacker. Are there any other alternatives out there? IRDA : Laptop IRDA device. I am not really sure about the manufacturer of the irda device. The laptop has an Intel 855Pm motherboard and the manufacturer told me that the irda device was just a peripheral. I have read on the web that the BIRDA port might be of some use. I need irda so I can connect my laptop to the internet through my mobile phone while I am on the road. The rest of the hardware seems to be supported.

Most IRDA ports on laptops have an option in the BIOS to set it up as a standard serial device, and FreeBSD usually sees it as a regular /dev/cua* device. It's been a few years since I've messed with it, but I don't think you'll have too much trouble.

Using it while running CURRENT has the added benifits of WPA and not having to get the src from the site (since its _in_ CURRENT).

I have ipw-freebsd-1.6.4 running just fine with 5.4-RC3, it works just as well with 5.3. It is well documented, there is a good forum as well. Kismet works with it too.

You are missing something :) You have to load ng_ubt (or similar) the bluetooth module in order to use bluetooth t40 here and same story.

I have the Dell 1450 card and have been unable to get ndis to work with it. ndiscvt seems to work okay, but errors result when the driver is to be loaded. I posted the results to this list and twice to freebsd-questions, but no one seemed to be able to explain the meaning of the error messages nor to have a solution. Scott Bennett, Comm.
