    Solved Tint2 in the future

    Phishfry what I did, though I don't say it's a good idea, is run pkg create on 15-RELEASE. Then I put that package on 16-CURRENT and ran pkg add and it installed. I didn't try to build it from a port, just used the binary.

    bectl default - Not Any More

    bectl default - Not Any More

    The list of boot environments bectl list -c creation inevitably grows. New BEs every version upgrade, and I generally do bectl create before every package upgrade too. Every so often, I purge much of the old BEs that I will no longer need bectl destroy. But default always remains the active...

    Jail upgrade from 14.3-RELEASE to 15.0-RELEASE with pkgbase

    I have recently performed a major upgrade on my FreeBSD systems from 14.3 to 15.0 using the traditional freebsd-update(8) procedure and then pkgbasified the upgraded 15.0-RELEASE to the new pkgbase system. On these upgraded systems, I have been running several thick Jails which I wanted also to...

    Poudriere's pkgclean not removing all requested packages

    Ah, makes sense! I remember going through poudriere.conf when I first configured it and enabling KEEP_OLD_PACKAGES, thinking it'd cause poudriere-bulk to create and keep somePackage-version1.pkg, somePackage-version2.pkg… somePackage-versionN.pkg, or something like that, up to...

    Installing Qtile

    Hey viewers. I've been trying to piece together the steps to properly install Qtile on v15.x. Searching youtube, reddit, even qtile.org for good documentation has proved of little help. Qtile's install guide is quite literally a one liner, and does not work. The most help I have found has been...

    Why is lsblk not included in base install?

    Thank you for a good explanation. I have no idea how to determine if any package/port/or anyone for that matter uses my tool or even thinks it's useful. Based on the number of "stars" (I assume that ='s "like" or "used"), I think it would be a safe bet that I do not need to create a port for it...

    blender issues boost-jam and boost-lib versions

    If you checked out a ports tree with git you're likely on the main branch (aka 'latest'). For all -RELEASE versions pkg defaults to using the quarterly package repositories, you can check with pkg repos. If you want to switch to the 'latest' package repositories, create a...

    Local cache for PKGs?

    Conceptually, I am not grasping this - my understanding is that pkg is using an HTTPS connection to fetch packages, if we're swapping out an HTTPS connection for HTTP, then this approach makes sense, but if it is HTTPS, then NGINX won't be able to inspect the traffic. NGINX to my knowledge does...

Then poudriere started having issues with 14.3 because and package fetch stopped working which might be fixed by now but I couldn't build and host the packages easily in cirrus CI with GitHub any longer because I couldn't fetch rust.

    Have a look at tools like ezjail or bastille. Maybe they use it. Also there are three jail types : thick , thin and in a separate package optional-jail. Personally i only use thick jails. I create them manually no tools. Just unpack base.txz

    Major version upgrade and poudriere

    14.3 I hope. You don't have to go through all the minor versions. Just go from 13.5 to 14.3 in one go. Yes, between the second and third freebsd-update install is the best time. It will inform you to do so too. First install only upgrades the kernel, second upgrades the userland, the third...

    Solved rtw880: could not load firmware image 'rtw88/rtw8821c_fw.bin'

    This is really screwed up. I managed to get my phone and laptop to cooperate (not easy) and got FreeBSD a ue0 in ifconfig. Then fwget -n showed a kabylake thing and my rtw firmware but, when I ran fwget for real, I got "No SRV record found for the repo 'FreeBSD-base'". STFW turned up a thread on...
