Just for clarification: I didn't believe from the beginning this is a HW/memory issue. I think we are in agreement that more use of memory increases a chance to hit the issue (if there's a faulty location in physical memory somewhere). I agree with what you said in that thread, just not about...

I followed a few howtos and managed to create a jail to build ports with poudriere but I'm having errors with dependencies. Using a simple list of 2 ports, databases/mariadb1104-server and mail/postfix. Poudriere runs and build the 1st dependency which is ports-mgmt/pkg then stops at...

For xfce4 the right command is startxfce4, but I suggest you install a display manager, it makes desktop startup simpler. The handbook recommends lightdm for xfce4, but my favorite is sddm. For ZFS, I suggest this article...

Original article here. Consider this when replying. I doubt you’ve been living under a rock for at least the last decade, so I won’t explain containers for you. I will, however, mention what the Open Container Initiative (OCI) is, since FreeBSD has just become a part of it. Quoting from their...

Original article here. Consider this when replying. The FreeBSD Foundation is pleased to announce that it has completed work to build FreeBSD without requiring root privilege. We have implemented support for all source release builds to use no-root infrastructure, eliminating the need for root...

FreeBSD doesnt need Flatpaks, what I mean is that FreeBSD need some tech that made Flatpaks possible -- the only missing piece being rootless jails. We did conquer the layered nature of container stuff on Linux. Look, we have www/firefox without any sandboxing, and this is very important in the...

Yeah, and I would like to really cordially thank You for undertaking that operation - as it is one of the tiresome and elaborate ones. Updating to another major release does bring surprizes on any sufficiently complex site, and a lot of them are unpleasant. When to do it for an otherwise just...

Ha, I got it working now! Here is the log: # pkg install xfce4-pulseaudio-plugin Updating FreeBSD repository catalogue... FreeBSD repository is up to date. Updating FreeBSD-kmods repository catalogue... FreeBSD-kmods repository is up to date. All repositories are up to date. The following 9...

I had a quick look for a package for this and this is what I found: # pkg search xfce4-mixer xfce4-mixer-4.20.0 Volume control for the Xfce desktop xfce4-mixer-full-4.20.0 Volume control for the Xfce desktop I guess the one with 'full' in the package name may work, so I...

The reason may security related (old application versions), or perhaps hardware resources (occupying to much disk space). You may get an exact answer on freebsd-ports@ mailing list. By the way, FreeBSD:14:powerpc[64]/latest[quarterly], FreeBSD:14:powerpc64le/latest...

Hello, I freshly installed FreeBSD on an old Lenovo laptop with an Intel graphic card. But I cannot figure out why the hardware acceleration does not work and would therefore appreciate any help. Please see the relevant information below: # uname -a FreeBSD lenovo 14.3-RELEASE-p3 FreeBSD...

*If* this is how packages are created, they should rename the directory (an atomic operation) *once* the pkg dir is fully populated. Partially populated pkg dir should never be visible to users. [A reason to not use a zfs mountpoint for pkg dir] I usually do a pkg update && pkg upgrade and so...

I'm not 100% understanding how pkg build cluster work (I'm not on clusteradm team). Some says they're using poudriere to build, and some says they're using jenkins to build. So below include "prediction". Using pooudriere. (I've never tried jenkins.) On Oct.1, 2025Q4 is branched (annoucement...

If I understand you correctly, the workflow used by the system that creates packages for RELEASE is the following: On October 1st, create a new empty package directory for the current quarter. Begin populating it with newly built packages. This takes several days. Use the created packages for...

for release branches, beginning with 15.0-RELEASE, the freebsd.org pkgbase repository will receive updates for EN/SAs the same way freebsd-update would. that means if you install a jail from the freebsd.org repository when 15.0-RELEASE is current, then 15.0p1 is released, installing a new jail...

Hello everyone! After some time around playing with pkgbase, I've found a way for making minimal OCI\Podman\Docker-like chroot environments where theres only an app (could be many of them, though) and its dependencies inside a chroot environment. No need for managing 500+MB bases or having...

It always does. It's just text string change. It's not like there's any "magic" to this. When I worked on IBM mainframe MVS (O/S) support and development, that too had that text string change. People thought it was some monumental thing whereas it was in fact comprised of a bunch of little...

You are correct, I am getting "unsupported file type" for /boot/modules/dmabuf.ko as well as "not available or version mismatch" for drm.ko and i915mks.ko when trying to insert: # kldmod i915kms link_elf_obj: symbol linux_kfree_async undefined linker_load_file: /boot/modules/dmabuf.ko -...

FreeBSD is developed as a "base OS". Admins additionally install anything he/she needs via pkg (package management system on FreeBSD and actual packages for it) or building via ports to customize from default. X11, Wayland, desktop envirinments / window managers / compositors running on X11 or...
