Re: Alpha5 testing (10152009) 1of2
If i suppose correctly, lines with
'cardname_config="DHCP" ' are added to rc.conf and network cand taskbar icon are created only during installation; when i add new card i have to add line to rc.conf manually. I know that this is not very important, but if someday pcbsd liveDVD will emerge, this problem will be more important. By the way - i have problems with 7.1.1 and Atheros F1 10/100/1000 PHY network card taskbar icon - i don't know why but i have to add "ale0_config="" to rc.conf manually.

Test results: 1. display setup wizard on geforce2 pro sugest "185.*" driver which didn't work; "nv" works properly.This'll be fixed in the next alpha, updated the display setup wizard to now read the list of older nvidia graphics cards, and suggest the right driver for them.2. UniChrome graphics driver works only in x32 version; at x64 it's not working:( Sorry to hear that, maybe file a bug with freebsd send-pr?3. k3b crash on x32 and x64 (error message says about DCOP)Fixed in SVN! When K3B rebuilds it should be taken care of.4. when i plug in pendrive, mount it and unplug couple of times, it stops being visible.I seem to recall hearing thats an issue in FreeBSD's 8.0 stack at the moment. Hopefully it gets fixed before 8.0-Release comes out :)5. about software manager - good idea, but it will be nicer if it will include ports manager too.Haha, I agree, the question is who writes it, my hands are pretty full :)6. about network and changing hardware configuration - system mostly detect sound card and other devices, but it will be more usefull if system will automatically add network card configuration at /etc/rc.conf (simple 'cardname_config="DHCP" ' will be enough, i can live without taskbar icon - but i will be cool have it too).Humm, this should work by default, what cardname does your nic show up as?7. pbi's work fine on x32 (exept k3b) - but none of them was installed with system ( i have to install all of them manually).We'll start uploading PBIs for 8.0 to pbidir once FreeBSD 8.0 releases and we build them in an 8.0 base. At that point we'll include them on the DVD as well.regards, krzysiekThanks for helping to test, appreciate it! -- Kris Moore PC-BSD Software _______________________________________________ Testing mailing list Testing-Fhbtn2kkCAMmbxgs1yVkuA@public.gmane.org http://lists.pcbsd.org/mailman/listinfo/testing
