USB Data Link cable support in FreeBSD? Torfinn Ingolfsen 13:33:07
 Hello,

In the wonderful world of strange and useless (?) USB devices, there are
some devices referred to as "PC - PC Link Cable", "Data Link Cable" or
"USB Data Transfer Cable".
I just happened to pick up one for another use, but I just had to plug
it into my FreeBSD workstation to se what would be reported. The cable
Have 2 USB A-type connectors, and a "lump" in the middle. The lump is
labeled "USB 2.0 Data Transfer Cable" on the front side, and "Model No:
USB-NL2 Maed In China" on the back side.

Here is the dmesg report:
Dec 31 02:07:48 machine kernel: ugen0: Acer Labs USB 2.0 Data Link, rev
2.00/1.03, addr 2

Are any USB Data Link Cables supported under FreeBSD?

FreeBSD Port: cyrus-sasl2-2.1.20_­1 Daniel Browne 15:22:57
 Is this port a slave port to cyrus-sasl-saslauth­d? When I update that
port, this one gets updated as well. I ask only because is not marked as
such on FreshPorts.
Thanks

CUPS: "Unable to open USB device "usb:/dev/ulpt0": Permission denied" Lars Stokholm 02:12:41
 I get this error, when trying to print a test page from the CUPS
web interface. I've tried to chmod g+w /dev/ulpt0, but that didn't
make any difference. What's wrong?

"Unable to open USB device "usb:/dev/ulpt0": Permission denied"

The printer is a HP PSC 750xi. I've installed the hpijs port, which
installed CUPS as a dependency.

Problems with sound playback Jeremy Sherling 07:33:11
 Hello, I am having a problem with sound playback on FreeBSD 6.2. I have had this problem for quite a while, but have not had time to try to figure it out until just now. (Had it with 6.0 - 6.2) When I first boot my machine, it works great, but after it has been on for 24 to 48 hours, the ram usage climbs up until there is about 70 megs free. From what I have read, I think this is normal. (560~ megs in inactive) When the computer gets to this state mp3 playback begins to stutter, getting worse and worse. top shows 60 - 85% idle. the machine is a 2.0 pentium 4 with a gig of ram and a 5.1 Live! card. I am running x.org 7.1 with gnome 2.16, gaim, bitchx, azureus and amarok for mp3 playback. (mp3s are on a local drive) Using OSS or ESD for playback doesn't seem to make any difference. I have tried playing mp3s in xmms, and I still get stutters. I even get stuttering in system sounds. Everything else on the machine seems to be acting normaly. No weird errors in any logs that I have found. So, I am wondering if anyone can help me track this down, or if anyone has seen something like this before. Any help would be great! Let me know if more information is needed.Thanks,Jerem­y

My PC speaker on my new laptop is SO INCREDIBLY LOUD. Is there any way

Thanks,

which of these HD TV tuners would be easier to get/write drivers for? Jim Stapleton 22:46:58
 I'm looking at setting up a multimedia center PC, and I'd like to base
it off of BSD, but the problem is that TV Tuners are hard to find with
drivers, and HD Tuners even worse.

Anyone know which of these would be easier to write drivers for? One
looks to be Phillips, one looks to be Connexant (examing the windows
driver files), dunno about the rest

 Hi.

I have a hauppauge wintv card in my freebsd pc.
I followed the instructions in freebsd handbook.

dmesg shows:
bktr0: <BrookTree 878> mem 0xdfffe000-0xdfffef­ff irq 19 at device 3.0 on
pci3

bktr0: [GIANT-LOCKED]

bktr0: Warning - Unknown Hauppauge Tuner 0x30

bktr0: Hauppauge WinCast/TV, Philips NTSC tuner.

pcm0: <Creative EMU10K1> port 0xe400-0xe41f irq 16 at device 4.0 on pci3

etc...



When a startx, X doesnt start (black screen) and a few seconds later the
machine reboots!



What could it be? How can I solve it?

Can someone help me please?



Thanks,

SCSI DVD not recognized by xine, xmms, etc. Patrick Bowen 08:20:25
 I've just gotten a Sony DRX-830U external DVD writer that connects to
the USB port on my computer. I can read and write CD's using cdrecord,
but I can't play DVD movies using xine. With the internal ATAPI
CDRW/DVD-ROM xine works fine, after I edit /etc/devfs.conf a la the
handbook, so I'm guessing the problem has to do with the external drive
being a native SCSI. I've included some info below;

[pbowen@sg1 ~]$ uname -a
FreeBSD sg1.sgc.org 6.2-PRERELEASE FreeBSD 6.2-PRERELEASE #0: Tue Oct 24
02:41:05 CDT 2006 pbowen@sg1.sgc.org:­/usr/obj/usr/src/sys­/GENERIC i386

[from dmesg]
umass0: Sony DRX-830U, rev 2.00/0.00, addr 2
cd1 at umass-sim0 bus 0 target 0 lun 0
cd1: <SONY DVD RW DRU-830A SS20> Removable CD-ROM SCSI-0 device
cd1: 40.000MB/s transfers
cd1: cd present [326496 x 2048 byte records]

Xine complains that it can't find an input plugin for MRL dvd:/

I've edited my /etc/devfs.conf so that /dev/cdrom, /dev/dvd, and
/dev/rdvd all point to /dev/cd0.

Maybe someone has been down this road before and can provide a helping
hand, or at least point me in the right direction.

TIA,
Patrick

Best tv app for cxm (pvr250)? Torfinn Ingolfsen 10:37:03
 Hi,
Ok, I have the pvr250 port working with my pvr350 card. But using
setchannel and mplayer is inconvenient, because I need to exit mplayer
to switch channels.

So, what's the best TV viewing application that works with the cxm
device? I'm not ready to install MythTV on FreeBSD yet, I just want a
simple app so I can watch TV in a window / fullscreen under X.

I'm guessing xawtv won't work.

Please don't tell me this is a "WIntuner" (my winmodem memories keep hunting me...:-) Mark Jayson Alvarez 19:48:12
 Hi,

just purchased an ultra-cheap PCI TV Tuner, Leadtek WinFast TV2000 XP
RM and couldn't make it to work.

There were only 17 matches when you search the freebsd-multimedia
archive for "winfast"... been reading it over and over again and I
couldn't get any closer to my goal.

The box:
FreeBSD 6.2-PRERELEASE


Sysctl:

hw.bt848.slow_msp_a­udio: -1
hw.bt848.format: 0
hw.bt848.reverse_mu­te: -1
hw.bt848.tuner: 15
hw.bt848.card: 14

I tried using kbtv:

Hardware Info:

Bktr module: Loaded
Capture chip: BrookTree 878
Card name: Leadtek Winfast TV 2000 <sysctl:14>
-huh!? I thought it was 15 says bktr (4)
Tuner type: LG TP18PSB12P PAL <sysctl:15> - as
according to this:
http://lists.freebs­d.org/mailman/htdig/­freebsd-multimedia/2­005-August/002521.ht­ml

I'm leaving here in the Philippines
The tv tuner's surface doesn't really say anything about it's tuner
type. It just have a sticker with "Winfast TV2000 XP RM" and "NTSC"
selected on the checkbox..

The chipset is definitely a Conexant Fusion 878.

I tried xawtv... played with different values to no avail.

$xawtv -hwscan

This is xawtv-3.95, running on FreeBSD/i386 (6.2-PRERELEASE)
looking for available devices
port 57-88
type : Xvideo, image scaler
name : NV Video Blitter

/dev/bktr0: OK [ -device /dev/bktr0 ]
type : bktr
flags: overlay capture tuner


However, upon launching xawtv, I got these:

$xawtv
This is xawtv-3.95, running on FreeBSD/i386 (6.2-PRERELEASE)
Warning: Cannot convert string
"-*-ledfixed-medium­-r-*--39-*-*-*-c-*-*­-*" to type FontStruct
Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".




I removed bktr_load="YES" from /boot/loader.conf, rebooted the machine
sysctl were also gone it was detected as:

Leadtek Winfast TV 2000, Philips FR1236 NTSC FM tuner.

Perhaps you can get something from the verbose dmesg:

Is this some sort of like winmodem issue?? I noticed that a lot people
are complaining about not making their tv tuner to work. Any idea why?


Thanks

FreeBSD 6.2/AMD64: missing driver for SB Audigy SE / CA0106-DAT O. Hartmann 00:32:29
 Dear Sirs.
My FreeBSD 6.2-PRE/AMD64 box has been equipted with a PCI Soundblaster
Audigy SE soundcard. This soundcard unfortunately does utilize a chip
called CA0106-DAT as "pciconf -lv" reported.
I tried several snd_xxx driver found in most recent FreeBSD
6.2-PRE/AMD64 stuff, but even snd_em10k1 doesn't work. So I googled
around and found ports/em10kx and tried this one - also with no success.
As I could then read in the README, my obtained soundcard especially
with the utilized chip isn't supported (yet?).
So I tried OSS, but this driver is a commercial third party driver and
therefore a bit suspicious in my opinion. By the way, the driver only
produces a ear-killing noise - no sound, nothing.

Well, as I could see in many other forums around the net, the
SoundBlaster Audigy SE is a quite common soundcard and I would wonder if
it isn't supported by FreeBSD. Are there any efforts pointing to this issue?
I should have better read the exclusions on supported hardware, too late
I realized that the soundcard of my box has not an emu em10k1 chipset.

Any comments are highly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
Oliver

P.S. Please send eMail direcectly or in CC to my address as I'm not on
this list, thank you very much.

FreeBSD ports: 1 unfetchable distfile: audio/ac3dec Bill "distfiles" Fenner 13:01:27
 Dear multimedia@freebsd.­org,

You are listed as the FreeBSD port maintainer for 1 port
whose distfiles are not fetchable from their MASTER_SITES. Could
you please visit

http://people.freeb­sd.org/~fenner/ports­urvey/multimedia@fre­ebsd.org.html

and correct the problems listed there? The individual port with
a problem is audio/ac3dec.

If you have already corrected the problems and submitted a
PR, please accept my thanks and apologies for the delay in getting
the fixes into the tree. This reminder is created automatically
and does not (yet) have a way to know if a PR fixing the problem
has been submitted. Please do *NOT* send your response to me
directly; I do not necessarily have time to commit your fix; please
instead submit a PR via 'send-pr' so it doesn't get lost.

Problems are usually of two types:
1. The software package has been upgraded and the version in the
port has been removed. The best solution to this problem is to
upgrade the port to the most current version of the software package.
If you are a FreeBSD committer, then you can just upgrade the port
directly. If not, you should create the updated port on your own machine,
test it (and maybe even run "portlint" on it), and then use "send-pr"
to submit a "diff -uNr old-port updated-port". If you added or deleted
any files, please make an explicit note of it.

2. The mirror site being used no longer contains the software package
in question, or no longer exists. Solutions include:
a) If there are other mirror sites, just remove the bad site
from the list. (Make sure that what appears to be a bad site
isn't actually a problem of type 1, upgrade)
b) If the README or other support files in the software
documentation mention where to get the software package,
use one of those sites.
c) Use a search engine to find another place to get the original
DISTFILES. Make sure that you don't pick a FreeBSD distfiles
mirror -- if you can't find any other places where the file
exists, it can be a LOCAL_PORT or you can simply comment out
the MASTER_SITES= line, with a comment explaining why.
Once you have a solution, use "send-pr" to submit a "diff -u" of the
Makefile.

Note that this isn't an urgent issue, as people who try to
build the port now will just fall back to the FreeBSD distfiles mirror.
Please just put it on your list to do and get to it when you have time.
These messages will continue to arrive twice a month until the fix is
committed, as a reminder.

Thanks,
Bill "distfiles" Fenner.
