Hi all, I have ordered a Synology with 6 disks. I need to buy a UPS to protect it. As I understand zero about electricity (I miss that part of my brain) it is all very confusing; I seem not to be allowed to simply add up the watts of the disks and the synology, but I need to look at volts and...

Thank you for this post, Vermaden :D

That was an extreme amount of work; thank you very much for it. I will try to use it one day, when I have enought guts :D

I beg to differ, there is a manual for $ dump -0Lauf /path/to/backups/ad0s1d.dump /dev/ad0s1d as well, to name just one. But no problem I will do it myself.

Thanks for writing this tutorial; I plan to use it step by step when I have enough nerves to try it :e But on googling around there are also some remarks about first steps that you perhaps might want to include so your post becomes a 'really really really contains every step' guide? For...

Hmmm. After a patch that has been made available this error is now gone: ERROR: The "libmoonplugin-ff3bridge.so" in WEBPLUGINS_FILES is either a typo or no longer exists. Please make a bug report to mono@FreeBSD.org (maintainer). However, installing the plugin itself in Firefox still isn't...

I informed the developer twice, but no response :(

Thanks for your reply Wblock; it turns out one way of the other the drive was defective. A friend came over and changed it with a spare drive; that simply worked.

I know what the problem is: this site is running on Windows Server. Could I suggest changing it to another OS? I can recommend FreeBSD, it is very solid. :e

This definitely makes a considerable difference: thank you for the tip :P

Good morning :e This is weird: I have a Samsung DVD-writer that burns and reads DVDs fine but doesn't boot a DVD (no matter which DVD I insert). In the bios the settings are normal, and it used to work the way it should. Just suddenly it stopped. Is this defective or could it be something...

Hi all, Is it only me or is this forum horribly slow for the last couple of days? Changing a page easily takes 10 seconds. I don't have this on any other forum.

The thing is, for my work I have to watch clips with interviews and stuff. Half the web does this in Flash, half does it in Silverlight. Flash I have working under FreeBSD, Silverlight I have not. If I want to completely ditch XP for FreeBSD (which I really want) I will have to find a way to...

After a quite impressive installation of packages (tons of them) as well as a port upgrade to the latest versions of these packages, I remain with two errors: -snip- Making install in sdk gmake[1]: Entering directory `/usr/ports/multimedia/moonlight/work/moonlight-2.2/sdk' gmake[2]...

I am poking around with this also. Aside from the fact that it installs a ton of packages (this can't be right, can it?) it doesn't yet work. It installs so many packages that the forum says:

Time for a noob question again :P (:e) On following the hand book for lpd I do: grep ppc1 /var/run/dmesg.boot (ppc0 turned out not be installed). I get: ppc1: <NetMos NM9805 1284 Printer port> port 0xe800-0xe807,0xe480-0xe487,0xe400-0xe407,0xe080-0xe087,0xe000-0xe007,0xdc00-0xdc0f irq 17 at...

Thanks to all :D Since it's a rather old HP Laserjet 6P, I think I should go with lpd based on what I read.

Thanks for your reply; appreciated. I doubt I see myself printing a webpage via CLI :P :e No, seriously, I want to simply print either a *.pdf, *.doc or a web page or something like that without hassle, so click 'print' on some fancy icon and be gone with it.

Hi all :P Having gone through the most horrible ports upgrade experience I have ever seen (from start to finish multiple weeks, finally got there thanks to the extremely patient help of a member here, thanks again a thousand times ;)), I am now a happy owner of 8.1 with all ports upgraded to...

It works here as well. 8.1 and Flash 10 on Firefox 3.6.12 There are quite some posts on this forum on Flash, did you search for them? I am a noob on FreeBSD but I got it to work using those posts. For example: http://forums.freebsd.org/showthread.php?t=5786
