Cisco Aironet MPI350 Fix
|
| |
Hello, I have a Cisco Aironet MPI350 PCI card in my Thinkpad X31, and on a fresh install of FreeBSD 8.0-RC3, the card did not work. Also, it caused my system to freeze up for a few seconds about once a minute as the driver spit out "an0: device timeout" messages so long as the interface was up. I researched the issue, and found the following fix already in... more »

I can't seem to find the details regarding how the authentication key is provided to the drive, and where there is any support in FreeBSD to enable unlocking the drive for use. Any pointers would be appreciated.... more »

As far as I was able to tell, I can get the total of user and system time using kvm_getprocs, but it doesn't seem possible to get both values... more »

acl_from_text leaking memory
|
| |
I've been working on a new backup program, HashBackup, and believe I have found a memory leak with ACLs in PCBSD/FreeBSD 7.1 and OSX (Leopard). acl_from_text is a function that takes a text string as input, and returns a pointer to a malloc'd acl. This acl is then freed with acl_free. I noticed that acl_from_text appears to leak memory. This... more »
