    EU pkg mirror (bme0)

    Final response: Mark Egan-Fuller Staff - 02/04/2020 4:40 PM Hi Matthias, We've had a response from FreeBSD: * The mirror was turned off as it was having technical issues * People should not be using this mirror directly and should instead be using the GeoDNS routing provided by...

    EU pkg mirror (bme0)

    I know but lets be real. It is offline for some time now, no status update, no ones seems to be working on it. Either open up the easy of how to create pkg mirros or make sure they are running. Or better get each region at least 2 mirrors for fail-safe

    EU pkg mirror (bme0)

    Btw I got an update: Thank you for reporting this issue, looking at the routing it appears to be correctly hitting one of their devices before getting stuck. I'm afraid that whilst we provide these machines to the FreeBSD Project we don't manage them. I will contact them and inform them...

    Whats up with this mirror. Seems unreachable and the alternatives NY and South Africa are not really a great option either.

    What is your viewpoint of the "The Cloud"?

    As a developer it's great that I can provision a production grade machine in minutes to test stuff or scale without going through forms and jump through hoops to get a machine. The try things out and start small and scale as you go is a big part of what makes the cloud attractive to me.

    Microsoft Strikes Again: Memory compression in Win 10. Useful in FreeBSD?

    So what did become of it? There was a https://wiki.freebsd.org/SummerOfCode2015/MemoryCompressionDeduplication but it seems this never produced any code. To be honest I think it's still a viable idea given that all other major OS have it for years

    nVidia Optimus GT740M and Intel HD4600: no X11 on CURRENT

    I think it can't be done. Only option is to use the intel card and somehow disable the nvidia chip. Tried for days on my XPS15 and only the intel card worked. Using the nvidia driver resulted in some strange error by xorg.

    Solved Lag with HD6870

    Kinda fixed it: Now using compton with GLX backend. Invited my user to group Video so that I can access the /dev/dri/card0 smplayer backend also switched to GL. After this everything is alot smoother

    Solved Lag with HD6870

    Hi, I'm running 11-CURRENT with a AMD HD6870 (i7 2600k and 8GB RAM) with x11-wm/i3 as WM. Syscons and and X works quite nice except for some issues: Video playing (full HD) lags a bit and so does quick scrolling in Chromium and Firefox. Not always but depending on the website. It's the same...

    High idle load in VPS

    Well sometimes I see a load of 0.44 but 100% idle and 5% load in the dashboard of the vps. I can't really relate these numbers to each other. Especially the load average and the 100% idle is off from my point of view.
