    KDE Plasma Login Manager Won’t Support Systemd-Free Linux or BSD Systems

    So there may be, probably, a chance on an attempt to have a try on testing the possibilities of maybe a resurrection of the old XOrg for the time being? Great. I'll buy that for a fillér.

    KDE Plasma Login Manager Won’t Support Systemd-Free Linux or BSD Systems

    There have been reports that the area in Spain which is in the path of the eclipse is notorious for cloud cover. Please don't set your hopes too high. And also: "Helgaaaaa!"

    What hobby do you spend money on ?

    On an iThingy that needs juice and is sensitive to large electromagnetic fields? I keep 1-2 mechanical diving watches around just for that, so I can have an idea what time it is. Sure they are not as accurate as the solar powered radio synced diving watch next to them, but lady luck features the...

    200 MB RAM FreeBSD Desktop

    Just faced the fact that pkg will eat memory like popcorn, even on the console it is paging now :) 258MB and counting. Trying it in CDE got xosview away.

    200 MB RAM FreeBSD Desktop

    Standard install of 15.0, standard XOrg, ... Usability is "OK" with 200MB in the virtual box setup. Going back to some GB now as this is supposed a build machine later on (8 cores assigned).

    This is one core point. You might, family situation allowing, change your place to live to some other which allows you to have decent living on what you have as a pension.

    200 MB RAM FreeBSD Desktop

    Classic MacOS (the old Macintosh) could run word in 128KB. But that was old Word, as "not Text". My first Unix on my own HW had 8MB memory and ran fvwm2, good memories.
