Periodic banner refresh for paneld

Hi Dennis,

I've modified paneld to support refreshing the banner display every n
milliseconds, so that I can use the LCD to display CPU and network
usage.  The patch is available at:

http://www.sigbus.net/paneld_banner_refresh.diff

Feedback is welcome.

Yeah, I know I should get  around to updating to 1.6.1

recognizes anything.

Re: Another OSes for Qube2?

I have had really good results with the Debian MIPSEL port on my Qube 2. 
  Very stable, no problems, apt-get to keep it current.  There is a 
howto by Paul Martin a 
http://devel.alal.com/pipermail/cobalt-22/2002-July/000298.html. 
However, the project seems to be asleep, or dead. I just finished 
installing NetBSD on a Sega Dreamcast (just for fun), and I may yet end 
up converting my Qube (which I actually use as a file and IRC server) if 
Debian is a dead end.

Will Debian stable run on a Qube2?

Just curious...

NetBSD on Raq 3/4?

I saw a rumor from a posting last month that someone had installed Netbsd on a 
raq 3 and/or 4.  Is that possible?  The website says otherwise, but I wanted 
to check here for sure.

Thanks!

Re: NetBSD on Raq 3/4?

it uses an i386 cpu, so you would need to install the i386 version of netbsd
... that sounds possible

New install and soem questions

Howdy List!

I just installed 1.6.1 on a qube2 and it seems to be workign great! 
Thanks for all the hard work.

Poking around the system, I couldn't get the pcictl command to work, as
there are no /dev/pci? devices.  I also couldn't figure out what
major,minor numbers to use to mknod it.  There is no reference to pci in
/dev/MAKEDEV at all.

What are all the patches that have been applied to the installed kernel?

The one patch I applied fails when running make depend on a GENERIC
kernel with this message:

make: don't know how to make ../../../../dev/ic/lcdkp_subr.c. Stop

Thanks!

Apache and WebDav

Hi
Can anyone help me in setting up WebDav on my NetBSD 1.6.1 running on 
Qube 2. I am a very very new guy in NetBSD and Unix.
I need the information on how to edit the httpd.conf and other details.

Yeah, I botched the patch.  Things are compiling fine now.

The system is using a bootloader.  Is there any way to get a bootloader
prompt to pick which kernel to use?

Thanks!
