    I suggest FreeBSD porting hardware drivers from Linux Kernel 4.5

    He could always contribute to the Linux compatibility layer. There is a nice tutorial of having Debian; and of course, there are others. A bit about jails, permissions and such. And, maybe, he could work on a port or two. The Haswell thing? CISC only exposure and none other; and, yet, they are...

    Update on the official PowerPC laptop project

    An associate of mine is married to a woman who sets up animation stations for children. It looks like the two towers will be going to good use. I may need to build on a system if the packages are not available.

    New hardware based on old designs

    In the presentation of the hypothesis, you must be certain that your observation has been from different co-ordinates on a geological, metaphysical, and social scales. That the application of such a device would be designed such that the processor and instructions near perfectly fit the...

    Update on the official PowerPC laptop project

    I could use a few more BSD people in this area; and, there should be a school with a public access to Open/Free software. I was given two G4 towers from a local television station. Since there is no monitor for me to use, the specifications are not currently known. The purpose and intention is...

    Dual PowerPC G4 SMP

    There are only a few people who have access to multi-core PPC/POWER systems. It's not if, but when the laptop is produced is probably when the FreeBSD core team will deem SMP on PowerPC/POWER systems as a challenge to be solved - in sorts. A question has been sent to the mailing list and Adrian...

    Update on the official PowerPC laptop project

    I'm looking at audio/video production, networking, and AI type of applications. For audio/video: You are looking at Ardour and a few others on a very responsive and affordable machine. CISC and ARM just don't cut it there. With GPU + CPU rendering, animation will be rendered much more quickly...

    Why do people use FreeBSD?

    I just did a short clean up job at a local television station. Out of the mess, there are two PowerMacintosh G4 towers available. Both FreeBSD and Debian will go on them for a audio/video animation studio setup for a local volunteer/charity organization. This is a reason I use FreeBSD, to...

    Update on the official PowerPC laptop project

    They are looking at possibly September as the month the laptop is produced. I've - and others - have done hardware suggestions. You're possibly looking at a sound card and a video card with their own dedicated memory and room for expansion. Someone also suggested something similar to PC-BSD for...

    Raspberry Pi (original B) & Mate desktop

    There is a github repository for the Pi GPU ; and, Tinyx/XBMC is available to build. If someone is willing to compile both for testing on a Raspberry device, then an accelerated graphics driver on a small server/client would be available.
