This is your cat? http://boingboing.net/2011/08/20/caturday-naked-edition.html If I was that cat then I'd probably do something similar out of spite.

Haha, thanks for the empathy ;) I installed PC-BSD-9.0,Beta1.5 on a spare disk today and figured that I'd be daft if I didn't atleast try installing LotRO. I used wine-fbsd64-1.3.21,1 from David Naylor's mediafire repo and despite my expectation of seeing a black screen as has happened so...

Could try putting it in ~/.xinitrc as you could then start it before openbox. Not sure about alternatives, there's x11/xsetroot but I think that may be for solid colours/bitmaps.

Only trouble I had on this box was USB after a resume iirc, loading as modules and then putting the required entries in /etc/rc.suspend and /etc/rc.resume got everything working correctly.

Slides about porting KVM to SmartOS here It appears this is aimed at Intel chips currently, as stated on the OpenIndiana mailing list; "Although they focused on developing for Intel they did it such that it shouldn't get in the way of working on AMD chips in the future." (pg 4 of slides...

Oh nice! I especially like the per workspace layouts, auto-resizing of tiled windows when one is dragged to float, master switching and shrink/grow, very cool.

I see, thanks for the explanation.

Sorry for the off-topic but is there a reason for using a /24 netmask on a /8 subnet?

You might like to listen to this podcast, there's an interesting explanation of how it all works. http://bsdtalk.blogspot.com/2010/02/bsdtalk186-jeff-roberson.html Or if you want to know more about SU+J in general http://jeffr-tech.livejournal.com/

ZFS uses a bunch of data that can be viewed with root@openindiana:~# zdb -l /dev/rdsk/c4t0d0s0 -------------------------------------------- LABEL 0 -------------------------------------------- version: 28 name: 'rpool' state: 0 txg: 54715 pool_guid: 11493968878917956519...

It depends if you generally use the base config for ports or like/need to change options. Personally I'd rather do one or the other for peace of mind.

Yes it will support SU+J at install. Currently the installer allows for options to be toggled when creating the filesystems, otherwise it's a case doing the following on an unmounted filesystem tunefs disable -j /dev/adaXsX Personally I'd play around with FreeBSD 9.0 and find the aceptable...

What's the gnometarget thing?

I use an 8.2-RELEASE for games via Wine on FreeBSD. No changes bar vfs.read_max from 8 to 32 and increased vfs.ufs.dirhash_maxmem from 2MB to 8MB. LotRO was giving me trouble on 8.2-STABLE and 9.0-CURRENT so I tried a recent Linux distro to see how things performed. For the time it took to...

Adding to this again as I'm totally perplexed. FreeBSD 8.2-RELEASE was temporarily running on a Western Digital 1TB Caviar Black drive before I did the dump | restore to a Western Digital 500GB RE4 where it also ran fine. Last night I did a dump | restore from the 500GB RE4 to a 250GB RE3...

First time I've heard of zle (zero length encoding). Info on what zle is and how it works seems very sparse, anyone have links? So it's tied into deduplication?

I thought lzjb and gzip were the compression formats used on ZFS, did something get added/changed?

x11-fonts/webfonts

I'm guessing fonz was having a laugh because grammatically it makes no sense. It's like saying "all wheel's are made for cars".
