    Backup solution for ginormous ZFS pool?

    I had problems using zfs send/receive to send 1 TB to a remote. I decided to break the single 1TB filesystem to contain several children. Now after a network failure at worst only a child needs to be resent. I use my script to take care of recursive sends and to keep the remote in sync...

    FreeBSD 8.2 and Asus Eee PC 1005PXD (snd_hda)

    I have a 1001px with the similar codec and the same symptoms and gave up on snd_hda after extensive pinout configuration tweaking without success. Installing audio/oss was successful. You do need to recompile the kernel to remove snd_hda because even with snd_load="NO" and snd_hda_load="NO" in...

    Mumble overlay working?

    I tried it on my fvwm2 desktop over an xterm, not sure if this is the correct use for overlay. I also tried it with games/iourbanterror which is supposed to support mumble. I'm wondering if I need to enable the OpenGL overlay feature somewhere. When I get time I'll have another dig around. Thanks.

    X applications in a chroot

    Hi Nukama, You have hardware rendering not software. For some reason I thought you would need an xserver running in the jail to get hardware rendering for a jail. I now also have my desktop running out of a jail :). Thanks. Jailing a desktop gives greater separation of the desktop from the...
