    Solved Ubuntu HDD access

    You should have seen it in the output from the geom command above and you should also be able to see it by running ls /dev/linux_lvm. If there is nothing, check you loaded the kernel module (kldload geom_linux_lvm).

    Solved Ubuntu HDD access

    Oops -- my typo. It meant to read geom linux_lvm list (no second underscore)

    Solved Ubuntu HDD access

    Aha... you mentioned LVM. Have a look at the man page for geom_linux_lvm. Try kldload geom_linux_lvm followed by geom linux_lvm_list geom linux_lvm list. You should then be able to mount the partition with something like mount -o ro -t ext2fs /dev/linux_lvm/yourvolumegroup /mnt. Reference...

    Solved Ubuntu HDD access

    Try file -s /dev/da1s1 to determine the filesystem type. Assuming it comes back as ext2, ext3 or ext4 (appreciating you already tried to mount it as ext4)... If you just need to read files then the suggestion in the handbook is probably good enough: kldload ext2fs mount -o ro -t ext2fs...

    Solved Ubuntu HDD access

    I've never done this myself but, have a look at the FreeBSD Handbook's section on GNU/Linux filesystems (EDIT: As quoted by Maxnix, who pipped me to the post with a response). I expect your Ubuntu installation uses ext3 and that page has a caveat: I also see there is the sysutils/e2fs port...

    Solved More advanced GELI setup

    The great thing about the FreeBSD GEOM framework for storage is that you mostly don't need to care what is providing storage. Whether it is a whole disk, a BSD slice, a BSD partition, a GPT partition or an encrypted container it can be treated in the same way. Using GPT labels is definitely...

    Solved More advanced GELI setup

    Hi maximusmusterus1 and welcome to the forums. Firstly, The good news is that someone already wrote a script for this. From the "Encrypting Disk Partitions" section in the FreeBSD Handbook: Secondly, Yes (and yes). Have a look at the setkey option in the geli man page and also the...

    Solved Backlight set to zero after X server starts

    I had another thought if you want to use SLiM. If you are starting SLiM by adding slim_enable="YES" to /etc/rc.conf, you could write your own startup script (refer to this guide) with a dependency on the SLiM script to run your brightness command. This is a version of what tobik was...

    Solved Backlight set to zero after X server starts

    Hi rotech911 and welcome to the forums. I looked at the man page for the Xorg intel driver to see whether you could put something in a configuration file rather than running a command. Unfortunately configuring the brightness appears to require running xrandr, which is no improvement on your...

    Solved Canon Canoscan LiDE 220 Not Working

    Sevendogs, I also just bought this model of scanner precisely because it would be fully supported by graphics/sane-backends. I haven't had a chance to try it yet, mainly because I was waiting to upgrade my desktop system to FreeBSD 10.3. I'll let you know if/when I get it working.

    UFS UEFI booting with separate /boot partition

    Regarding kpa's suggestion, I see from the release announcement for FreeBSD 10.3:

    UFS UEFI booting with separate /boot partition

    Have a look at 51393. It is written for ZFS on GELI but can be adapted for using UFS on GELI. Not that I am aware of; what you want was not configurable for FreeBSD 10.1 and I don't see any indication of a change in the release notes for FreeBSD 10.2. However, given your question I can have a...

    Struggling with jail networking

    Futher to lme@'s post, if you are running sshd on the host and in the jail, you need to modify /etc/ssh/sshd_config for each so that ListenAddress is the host's IP in the configuration file on the host and the jail's IP for configuration file in the jail. That is totally normal. Jail IP...

    No Wi-Fi

    Erm... Assuming you don't have the skills and/or time to fix the bug with the wpi driver yourself, I think I covered the obvious other option :) Reconfiguring the access point to use a different channel is easy and is unlikely to affect any other device. Your father wouldn't even notice if...

    No Wi-Fi

    Bad news, I am afraid. I see there is 172706, which has not yet been fixed, reporting the same issue. It also suggests using one of the channels available with the country as "US" (that is 1-11) as a work-around. You mentioned you had another USB WiFi card. Perhaps you could use that and...

    No Wi-Fi

    Of course, if you could change the channel of the wireless access point to something between 1 and 11, I would expect everything would work fine...

    No Wi-Fi

    In your screenshot, your WiFi card is still showing as configured for US region, though when you changed it by hand using ifconfig wlan0 country Netherlands it you said the command ran successfully. I am confused. I looked at the script that handles wireless network set up (relevant section...

    Nessus and Nmap running in Jail

    It looks like Nmap at least is not using just ICMP for host discovery. I see in Nmap's fine manual:

    Nessus and Nmap running in Jail

    My thought is that if they were exactly the same, they would both work :) Perhaps you could look for differences with tcpdump or net/wireshark?

    Nessus and Nmap running in Jail

    Could it be that the packets Nmap and Nessus are generating are not surviving the transition across the firewall and NAT boundary?
