Is this for personal pages and unimportant stuff? https://www.scottro.net (not srobb.net), is running nginx in a freebsd jail. Just switched it over from Linux a couple of days ago. It's mostly a mirror of srobb.net with a few other things thrown on. And to my chagrin, when I changed to nginx...

I have a small snippet of javascript that I add to my webpages <center><script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript"> if (Date.parse(document.lastModified) > 0) { document.write ('<b>last modified: <\/b>' + document.lastModified +'<p>'); } document.write('<b> url:<\/b>' +...

Yes, but as mentioned above, I sometimes have to start my window manager with dbus-launch but it's not consistent--that is, sometimes I don't have to do that. The essential thing, again with fcitx5-anthy, is to also have fcitx5-qt6 installed. I cover it in more detail on my page which I linked...

ChapinTokyo I only know that in regular FreeBSD, *sometimes* though this hasn't been consistent, I had to change my startx entry from exec openbox (or exec dwm) to exec dbus-launch openbox. (and also being sure to install fcitx5-qt6). But as GhostBSD doesn't use startx, I don't know how you...

You're right and I missed that. Thanks, and apologies to fernandel

I'm gonna spam my own page on this https://srobb.net/fbsd14_15.html

When I install it, (ja-fcitx5-anthy, running fcitx5-configtool), I have an English language version of what you're showing. I highlight anthy, and click the little < arrow at the top of those symbols in the middle. Anthy then shows up on the left. This is on regular FreeBSD.

I just quickly installed a GhostBSD VM to see for myself and yes, it does seem as if it only has fcitx with qt5. Any chance of you trying fcitx5? (For those annoyed about this being GhostBSD, it seems the package sets are the same as regular FreeBSD but I think most of us on this thread are...

What is the result of lpstat -p? That should list any available printers. For example, I have one printer, which I call BrotherMFC. If I run cupsd, and the printer is not on, I get printer BrotherMFC is idle. enabled since Tue Feb 10 13:14:43 2026 If I turn on the printer I get the same...

With fcitx5 I'm able to (well, only tested on labwc with featherpad) able to get Japanese input on labwc with featherpad) so I think one might be able to get qt app Japanese on Wayland. I ran a pretty limited test though, just opened featherpad and typed the word 日本語 and quit featherpad but it...

Sounds as if you're using the older fcitx rather than fcitx5. (I think FreeBSD only has mozc with fcitx, and with fcitx5 you have to use anthy) To quote my own page https://srobb.net/jpninpt.html about FreeBSD and fcitx (as opposed to fcitx5

It should show in the cups web page. From the link fernandel gave

I'm going to mark this solved. Those of you who use tint2 have probably noticed it's been updated to 2.17.

You would not kload it. Once it's installed if you run startx, then X should start. You might be better off with vm-bhyve, which automates some of it. Then you could use a template like loader="uefi" graphics="yes" xhci_mouse="yes" cpu=1 memory=2048M network0_type="virtio-net"...

It shouldn't be necessary. I see from another post that you're not using vm-bhyve, which is all I'm familiar with, but at any rate, to get X running on a FreeBSD VM, I install xorg-server, xf86-input-libinput, xf86-video-scfb xinit (which provides startx), then a window manager, alacritty...

In my case, I have to install xf86-video-scfb to get video.

I actually combatted an earlier price range by lowering my speed. I forget the figures, but the lessening of speed didn't have any noticeable effect. As we all know in the US, there's no real competition. View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ilMx7k7mso from 12 years ago is still true. In...

Yes, they (spectrum) just raised our rate. (NYC). However, my wife has realized she doesn't use the TV, so we'll be able to save a bit by getting rid of that part of it.

Not sure it will work. I *think* you need an ISO file. If I understand your post, you will only have a console, no GUI.
