The arc_prune issue is fixed in 14-STABLE but not in 13-STABLE. Hopefully it'll be fixed in 13 too.

No character issues with 4 port ATEN CS84U (just annoying issue with mouse disconnecting when switching ports and needing to restart moused + devd - will post separately once fully diagnosed). [EDIT] Mouse issue resolved by removing all moused lines from rc.conf

Same issue with tightvnc and FreeBSD 13.2-STABLE - xterm dies with "BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation)" when started from the .vnc/xstartup file which is: #!/bin/sh xrdb $HOME/.Xresources xsetroot -solid grey # start some nice programs xclock -digital -geometry -1+1 -update 1...

This used to work ok, but in the last few months the sendmail mailq (sendmail -bp) command has started killing the sendmail milters. As soon as it executes this happens: Jan 5 00:08:26 shadow sendmail[97500]: NOQUEUE: Milter (milter-regex): to error state Jan 5 00:08:26 shadow...

Check file/directory permissions? I compile SeaMonkey from the source tar these days and have not encountered this - my calendar works fine.

Apple Silicon support is a work in progress - see https://wiki.freebsd.org/AppleSilicon

Even swap isn't always enough... I have a 512MB VM with 20GB of SSD and 1.5GB swap (the maximum before FreeBSD 12 complains about too much). Compiling the latest Python version from ports exhausts both memory and swap at the linking stage even after killing almost every process on the system...

I left Digital Ocean some years ago because they would not allow my email servers to use IPv6. Instead I have a tiny FreeBSD VPS on Vultr in New Jersey as a secondary mail server when they were providing a free IPv4 address as well as IPv6 blocks ($2.50+10% Australian GST / month). Never had a...

I'm using FreeBSD 12-STABLE and have no certificate issues. In my sendmail .mc file I have: define(`confCACERT',`/etc/mail/certs/ca-bundle.crt') In the ca-bundle.crt there is no Root CA X3 certificate, but there is a ISRG Root X1 certificate. -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 707K 29 Apr 04:15...

It's simply a side-effect of the Let's Encrypt root certificate expiring, something which happens to all certificate providers eventually. As per the error message, Let's Encrypt's Root CA X3 certificate expired on September 30, 2021. That means that if you do not have the new ISRG Root X1...

Nightl;y backup to an external Seagate 5TB (CMR) disk drive - no need to leave it powered on all day and night. #!/bin/sh # Check root is running the script check=`id -u` if [ ${check} -ne 0 ] then echo echo "${0} must be run by root!" echo exit fi # Power up external...

I have a bunch of APC SmartUPS 1400s and 1500s (beige and black) and the batteries last 4+ years in very hostile conditions (summer temperatures in the 40-45C range). I only use Panasonic batteries which are nearly twice the price of the cheaper alternatives. Quality batteries are key. I use...

<embarrassed>I did not read the unsubscribe confirmation emails and just assumed they were confirming the unsubscribe. I needed to rely to them which I have now done</embarrassed>.

I unsubscribed from several FreeBSD mailing lists, received unsubscribe confirmations, but the list mails continued to arrive for several lists (freebsd-doc, freebsd-arm, freebsd-wireless) anyway. I've now removed their email aliases which will stop them from my point of view. Did I miss some step?

No problem with ports-mgmt/portupgrade yesterday: Mar 27 10:41:55 shadow pkg[45957]: python38-3.8.12_2 deinstalled Mar 27 10:42:00 shadow pkg-static[46083]: python38-3.8.13 installed

The security/acme.sh shell script is far less problematical. - An ACME protocol client written purely in Shell (Unix shell) language. - Full ACME protocol implementation. - Support ECDSA certs - Support SAN and wildcard certs - Simple, powerful and very easy to use. You only need 3 minutes to...

I had the same problem with an external WD hard disk a few years ago - it was the firmware in the case, not the drive causing the issue. Solution was to rehouse the disk in a generic case.

I don't know how long this patch will languish before being committed, so I've mentioned it here should anyone else need a working asmc kernel modeule for these Mac mini models. See: 262456
