Set
vm.pmap.pg_ps_enabled=0
in /boot/loader.conf and reboot. Report back if it helps or not.

Hmm, something similar recently came up here in the thread "Exchange
ActiveSync account", and in both cases there seems to be confusion in
the roles of the MTA, the MDA and the MUA.
The MTA is only responsible to relay mail to it's destination, the MDA
to store it somewhere and the MUA to retrieve it. The mail is
delivered in a mailbox and once it reaches that mailbox it is not the
MTA's nor the MDA's problem anymore. It just sits there until you can
reach your mailbox and read it. Many people think that IMAP, POP3 and
alike are part of the mail (MTA) system but they are not. They are
completely separate systems designed for you to be able to
access/fetch your mailbox(es) from a remote location. Remember that
email was invented on multi-user systems so when you log-in to a
machine via telnet, ssh or sitting on a terminal, you access your
email directly from the mailbox, you don't need to fetch it to a
remote location to read it.
Anyway, if you want to take mail from one mailbox and send it to
another location, you need to pop-it (regardless if it's pop, imap or
what have you) and then re-send it to the new destination. This is
usually not the work on an MTA AFAIK and you need to use other tools
such as Fetchmail.
Hope this helps,
Alejandro Imass

FreeBSD is an OS
Postfix is an SMTP server.
What you want is a email push daemon.
What I would use (and indeed do use) is Funambol, its and open source
push media server.
And there are software clients for most smart phone OSs.

Hi,
As announced before, a few big commits, that touch some thousands ports
are being done: png, curl, x11, gnome, kde4. The target ETA is 6-7
April.
The first one was done, update of graphics/png (including a shared lib
version bump), with about 5000 ports affected.
We do _NOT_ recommend updating ports until this commits are all done,
and the problems are fixed, except if you want to help testing / fixing.
Before reporting failures, please take a look at ports@ list, and
http://qat.tecnik93.com/index.php?action=failed_buildports&sort=last_built
to find out if the problem hasn't already been reported or even fixed.
We also have two incremental builds on Pointy to catch the problems.
Thank you,
With hat: portmgr@

nopes, this didn't help too, machine freezed again after using for 30
minutes or so
all it was doing is playing amarok, fetching sources from svn repos,
and using firefox
lets assume if this is h/w problem, then how can other OSes overcome
this ? is there a way to make FreeBSD ignore this as well, let it
result in reasonable performance penalty.

I do not doubt the "power" of portmaster and portupgrade, but....
in my system (I have a "master" 4core,8Gb and several "slaves" about 40
of them , that upgrade via portmaster -P -aBdg)
in the master system there are about 1200 packages installed...
so a portmaster -r png will last forever...
I made a shell script that tests for the existance of the library
in /usr/local/lib/*.so, /usr/local/bin/*
sort it and tells me what ports really need upgrade...
with about 1200 ports, only 120 needed upgrade... (a question of 2
hours) in the "master cpu",
or about 20 minutes in the "slaves"
this scripts outputs the commands needed to fix the system

They would remove or replace the bad hardware.
I've seen more that one DIMM which passed every memory checker I could find
in it's most extensive testing mode. Only consistently effective option is
to replace with a known good piece of memory.

Very probably, if only we could detect where the problem is.
Try adding "options PRINTF_BUFR_SIZE=128" to the kernel
configuration file if you can, to see if you can get a less mangled

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed
Hi guys,
I've just performed a clean install of FreeBSD 8.0 on my system which is
a triple boot with Win 7 and Ubuntu Linux.
I did a bit of Google'ing on this subject and found various people
asking the same question only for much older versions of BSD.....
What I have found out so far is that the driver is called msk0 I am
guessing as on my other fairly similar Hp in Solaris the driver is named
myk0 by the official Marvell driver. Ok different OS different name -
possible and more then likely! :-)
Anyhow, I just would like to know since so far my system is blind deaf
and dumb, as I have no network access at all and as result no GUI as I
will build it from ports; which driver I'd need and also how to install
it in the machine???
With my other system and Solaris the trick was to use a USB key, of
which of course the GUI was in full operation making my life a little
easier then having to use the CLI to discover then mount the drive.
Has anyone got any suggestions??
I have the CD1 x86_64 edition of media :-)
Many thanks,
Kaya

IMAP, but not POP3, can be used to push, but the iPhone mail client doesn't support that as far as I know. It does support being pushed to over Mobile Me, but not on regular IMAP.

So how is Mobil Me and Exchange Servers (MS, Zimbra, etc) doing it? That's what I'd like to replicate on my FreeBsd server. This seems to be a well guarded secret I'd like to crack.
On the iPhone, at least, the phone is not polling the servers, some kind of message (SMS?) is being sent to the phone that makes it put a little red badge on the corner of the mail app icon telling it how many messages are waiting. The messages don't seem to be download during the push, it's just a count (I could be wrong about this).

For ActiveSync at least, the phone has to keep a TCP connection to the
server open 24/7, and the server sends a notification when a new mail
arrives. MobileMe probably works the same way. The IMAP protocol supports
a similar "notify on new mail" option, but for some reason Apple doesn't use
it in their client.

To totally confuse thin most modern mtas can easily be configured to pipe
mails to an external program or pipe. This can then to whatever, include

My understanding is that Apple wants all persistent connections to the iPhone to go through them, so that there is only one connection. This is, putatively, for battery life issues. Every pushable client on the iPhone doesn't maintain its own TCP connection but works through an API and has to have their service approved by Apple.
Apple made an exception for Exchange so that I could sell iPhones to businesses.
For better information than my possibly misremembered speculation, you would do well to check iPhone developer communities.

I have added a very standard, very common regex line to my .procmailrc to filter character sets I can't read:
UNREADABLE='[^?"]*big5|iso-2022-jp|ISO-2022-KR|euc-kr|gb2312|ks_c_5601-1987|ks_c_5601|3Deuc-kr|koi8'
:0:
* ^Content-Type:.*multipart
* B ?? $ ^Content-Type:.*^?.*charset="?($UNREADABLE)
unreadable_messages
I know that this works because my "unreadable_messages" mail file is now full of messages with headers like:
From: =?GB2312?B?xMLTq9Or?= <uigv...@heki.net>
Subject: =?GB2312?B?MjAxMMTqyMvBptfK1LS4w9bYytPKssO0?=

Content-Type: text/html;

However, a lot of mail gets through to my inbox that matches:

However, "big5" is very clearly listed in my regex above, and as far as I can tell, this mail should match perfectly...
I cannot see why these "big5" emails are not matching my procmail regex ... is it obvious to anyone ?

To: FreeBSD-...@FreeBSD.org

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1
Hi -
I've been working on installing 8.0 using zfs and raidz1. I was using
instructions found on the wiki. I got to the point where instructions say to
cd to /dist/8.0* and discovered that the livefs cd for 8.0 has no such
directory. However, the usb memstick did. In order to get into, however, I had
to reboot the system. The question now is...
Once I'm back in fixit and have loaded opensolaris.ko and zfs.ko how do I
bring the dataset (zpool) online? I assume from the zfs docs that "zpool
online zpool <device>" is what I'm looking for, but I'm not sure just what the
device is.
Any hints?
Thanks,
IHN,
Gene

The UPDATING entry for the png update looks very wrong. Wrong date, wrong text, wrong instructions for portmaster.
20090328:

The png library has been updated to version 1.4.1. Please rebuild all

If you use portmaster:
portmaster -r jpeg-
If you use portupgrade:
portupgrade -fr graphics/jpeg

Sigh. It's hardly the first time a major software company
insisted on "improving" a standard protocol instead of
maintaining compatibility/interoperability with the rest

And yes, the directions are still wrong; it should be:
portmaster -r 'png-*'
Similarly since this was just a copy-paste of the jpeg
instructions, those ones are wrong as well.

This is just a shot in the dark, but do you find that the unreadable
messages that this rule successfully matches have the relevant
Content-Type header in the message's "main" header group, whereas the
messages that should match but fail to do so have the Content-Type
header in a MIME attachment, as in your example?
(Apologies for the imprecise terminology.)

Good evening;

under Sun VirtualBox 3.1.6.
I am a long time Debian GNU/Linux user who has just installed the above
release. I have installed and used FreeBSD in years past but that was
around the 5.x-RELEASE. I have had a time installing applications from
the ports tree (a story for another day) and finally resorted to
installing binaries from the install dvd to get the full working X
distribution. I wanted to start with the 'minimal' set of packages and
build from there. At the moment I have the distributed binaries
installed and am compiling/installing gcc 4.4 and friends.
I have the current FreeBSD handbook but it does not seem to have the
answer to the following question.
When building and installing an application from ports, how does the
original binary or script, in /usr/bin, /usr/lib, /usr/etc..., from the
distribution, get removed? The make install foo command does not appear
to symlink the original application location to the new one in
/usr/local/whatever. Does it even matter?
