I have never seen one in real life, but it sounds "PCish", has a bios, probably boots some Linux based stuff by default, so sounds doable. Any experiences? Thanks, Martin </pre> Martin Husemann 2012-05-23T08:07:58 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.os.netbsd.ports.i386/15260 <pre>Does anyone use (or have used in the last n years) the i386 kernel VM86, KVM86 or KVM86DEBUG options that (I think) allows 16bit user programs to run within a 32bit kernel? My suspicions are that, if it ever worked, it will have bitrotted out of existance! Deleting it seems to be a good idea. Possibly wine uses it for 16bit windows code? In any case anything written in 16bit code can probably be emulated fast enough to be useful.

Looking back, I would like to get a bit more of a safety marging, since e.g. aggressive inlining or debug builds can both provide significant larger code than a base line. I'd like to raise the limit consistently to 256MB for i386 and amd64. The current i386 limit is still 64MB, which definitely is too close for comfort in netbsd-6.

That produced many "ntfs_procfixups: magic doesn't match" errors (many more than are shown), then the system crashed.

Also, on the Core 2 Duo PC the CD couldn't be ejected after booting because NetBSD didn't release it. Is that the way it's going to be with version 6 ?

This entails both the kernel code and some code in disklabel(8) and sysinst. The kernel code has been disabled by default for years; the disklabel(8) code was overlooked at the time and disabled about a year ago (in both current and -5) after several reports of trashed FreeBSD partitions were traced to it. Does anyone object? It's been a good long time since the partition ID changed. </pre> David Holland 2012-03-04T00:26:20 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.os.netbsd.ports.i386/15198 <pre>Hello, Is anyone out there using NetBSD 5.1.1 on a PCEngines ALIX board? These boards are supposed to have a hardware random number generator, but the one in my board isn't generating much data. It's properly detected at boot: glxsb0 at pci0 dev 1 function 2: RNG AES but according to rndctl it's not generating any entropy: # rndctl -l Source Bits Type Flags wd1 10550881 disk estimate, collect wd0 1437488 disk estimate, collect vr1 0 net vr0 0 net glxsb0 0 rng collect This came as a bit of a surprise (and some concern), as this would indicate that this particular box will be rather low on entropy (wd0 is a compact flash disk, so it will be a rather poor source of randomness and wd1 is idle most of the time).

There's a dmesg from the same kernel config running on the bare metal here: http://mail-index.netbsd.org/current-users/2012/01/24/msg018897.html I have enabled the "expose physical hardware information" and "expose physical OEM hardware" options in the VM "Advanced" panel, though I didn't have them enabled during the install. I noted some weird issues with "pauses" during installation, and they continued on during multiuser runtime too. I also had it go completely catatonic just now and had to force a reboot from the Xen control panel. I think it may have recovered eventually though -- sometimes these pauses seem rather long. re0 (and re1 when the wireless is active) is throwing "watchdog timeout" warnings on the kernel which may correspond to some of the freezes. dhclient can get addresses on both re0 and re1, but then neither work.
