Since the beginning of my FreeBSD journey I'm using ports to install software. As compiling ports and all their dependencies becomes more and more a time consuming and frustrating task, I would like to switch to precompiled packages.
For ports (but unfortunately not for packages!) the Handbook...
Optional to comply and mandatory to pay to read the specs?! Do you know whether the user interface of a tftp-client (e.g. command line options) is defined in POSIX?
Trihexagonal: Sorry, I don't understand what you are trying to say in the context of this thread.
In the meantime someone took over my bug reports and commited the fixes to the ports tree. So the bugs should be fixed. Sadly the result is a patch in the ports system and not a fixed version in...
I saw this before and tried to contact the maintainer on the old, the new and the private address.
It's a simple tool without a need for permanent updates of any kind just to make it look "active".
I tried to set a "maintainer-timeout" as Alexander88207 proposed, but I'm not sure if I did it...
Thanks for you reply!
I'm not sure if it is a good idea to provide the name of the port or a link to the repository here, because I don't want to blame the developer/maintainer. If someone is able to help I cold provide those information in a personal message.
Is there an "official" way or...
Hello,
I found two simple bugs in a port. The ports pkg-descr points to a GitHub repository where the port is developed. I filed two issues there along with the description of the problem and a possible solution (patch) 10 months ago. I also sent an email to the developer which is also the...
Thanks, SirDice trying to help. Just curious, is there a particular reason that an enabled TPM module could prevent suspend/resume other than having another device enabled which loads kernel code?
I verified the BIOS settings again and TPM is disabled (Security Chip = Deactivated) like before...
Hi,
I updated the BIOS of my Lenovo Thinkpad X230 to incooperate some security updates (Intel AMT, Spectre...). Since then suspend (acpiconf -s 3) is not working anymore. The machine just crashes and restarts. Suspend/resume was working fine all the time before the update. I'm...
In case of "Intel High Definition Audio" changing the audio configuration during runtime using sysctrl works if you do it right. As per manpage you have to commit your change:
Example:
sysctl dev.hdaa.0.reconfig=1
sysctl dev.hdaa.1.reconfig=1
I highly recommend to read snd_hda. It's not...
Thanks, Bobi! Sounds like a reasonable approach.
But I still ask myself, how gmirror acts in this case. I mean it's the same situation when powering on a computer and having two disks (or consumers) mirrored which _should_ contain the same data (= rebuild not necessary). But what if the data is...
Another Thinkpad X230 user here. Suspend/resume and brightness keys are working also in 11.2-RELEASE (-p4 at the time of writing). But I don't use acpi_video and also no acpi_ibm. I have i915kms_load="YES" in /boot/loader.conf to get hires console output (i915kms module from the base system, not...
I have two hard disks in my drawer which still contain data. I haven't used them for some years now. Initially they were running in a RAID-1 setup using gmirror. Before I put them in the drawer I used one of those disks individually for some time (i.e. without having the second one running in...
Same problem here. Thanks for this thread!
I did a fresh install of FreeBSD 10.1-RELEASE amd64 GENERIC-Kernel (Thinkpad X61, Intel driver with 965GM) one day before fluxbox 1.3.6 appeared in the ports and everything was running with fluxbox 1.3.5. After I updated the fluxbox port to 1.3.6 my...
My opinion: You should never ever use round-robin when you use TCP. Period. Go with loadbalance. Take the warning about the packet reordering serious. In your setup with round-robin the first frame is sent out via ibg0, the second via igb1, the third via ibg0 and so on. As Uniballer already...
