I find it more weird to find this thread here.

Big folder with PDF-s plus deskutils/recoll.

All the food. A kitchen is worthless without food. I like cheese.

Pots, knives, fork, spoon, and peeler. No desserts or fish.

How gently you but the same bullshit as the other pretender before you, your comment adds nothing of value here. I don't care of your levels of expertise if you're not able to share it without being condescending. I have my share of mistake, some...

I do get what you are saying, and while in principle I do agree with most, if not almost all of it - no level of personal frustration can be excuse for rude and indecent behavior among civilized people, not even if they had misfortune of bad...

Hi, all. I need to install postgresql18-{client,contrib,server} packages to a different location on a test machine, then copy all its files & directories to the needed machine, so that pg_upgrade from an earlier version of PG, which is installed...

AFAIR, Shaun Amott used as a sig in ML different quote from the same author: , but IDK who used this one from OP?

I updated from 14.2-RELEASE to 14.3-RELEASE. I'm using packages, so the old drm-500-kmod didn't get updated, and I manually installed graphics/drm-61-kmod. Now sysctl hw.acpi.video.lcd0.brightness=X has no effect. Nobody knows why? It's OK using...

This is a continuation of this thread. I'm starting a new thread because it's been a while and because I've made some progress that simplifies the problem, plus I don't need fibs anymore. I have a FreeBSD box acting as a dedicated firewall, with...

Ironically, I'm probably on the OP's ignore list, but in this case, I'm going to say I think they're right about a lot of this. We tend to make assumptions, and even when we don't mean to, we tend to, instead of saying, Thiis is what you should...

Well, it is also a good idea to follow syslog so that you see kernel messages. In the case of an out-of-memory error you get a better error message than from the program's stderr. DEs should make that easy.

I'm fairly sure that's the chipset on my Thinkpad and it doesn't work very well. It does give me about 2-4 MBs on the LAN (vs 40-50 on Linux) and is fast enough to watch youtube videos. Just did a search of my posts on the forums for the chipset...

As the fist person that introduced beadm(8) based ZFS Boot Environments to FreeBSD ... how could I help here? Me - before each upgrade I create new ZFS Boot Environment ... and then continue ... and whenever something goes south I just rollback...

Well, but you on the other hand should have posted the log in the first place. Instead you just made a fuzz with "killed itself twice" with no further forensics.

The original thread title and the tone used in the text weren't all that "friendly." I think the tone of conversations on this forum has gotten a bit more heated lately, especially among those new to FreeBSD. In my opinion, a little respect is...

Yeah, I bet a lot of us have a mess of stuff that we just never get to organizing. For what it's worth, I have pdfs directory, which has subdirectories of novels, shellscripting (which contains any tech book, not just scripting) and the...

Try with adding Terminal=true in ~/.config/autostart/syndaemon.desktop and chmod +x ~/.config/autostart/syndaemon.desktop BTW, exec mate-session should be last line in your ~/.xinitrc. It should be something like this: #!/bin/sh export...

I have an "Intel® Dual Band Wireless-AC 7265" and it works fine, yes as the iwm man pages says it doesn't work in n mode, it can see it but won't connect, I set the wifi settings in the router to b/g mode.

Try with adding a & at the end of your syndaemon -i 1.0 -d -K line in ~/.xinitrc or use Control Center / Personal / Startup Applications.

Nah. The troll in me would tell you to delete your account and go back to Linux - since you're displaying characteristics of that community. But that wouldn't be a constructive thing to do, would it? Re-read my last few posts (and other...

pkg works just fine – TBH most of the time. For the very rare cases when it's not, there are numerus prevention and mitigation strategies already discussed here ad nauseam (and in the various other sites & docs) RTFM and listen to the more...

This isn't answering your question and I don't know if it would work for your situation, but Tomshardware has an article on how to disable a secure boot requirement (and TPM), which worked for me, putting Windows 11 on bhyve. So, I'm putting it...

I've already used it. A few chapters were relevant. Then, I had to ask how to do something, which wasn't clearly wasn't described in it. Git is too complex for when for most purposes, I just want to edit, and save that to share for revision control.

Set your options in make.conf, for example: DEFAULT_VERSIONS+= mysql=10.11m php=8.2 java=17 linux=rl9 OPTIONS_SET+= OPTIMIZED_CFLAGS devel_cmake_UNSET= DOCS devel_git_UNSET= GITWEB SEND_EMAIL devel_log4cplus_UNSET= DOCS devel_py-molecule_SET=...

I mean, the error message should be clear enough, no? You ran out of RAM+swapspace.

Yes, it WAS correct before, but at some point (not sure actually when) the behaviour of pkg install changed.

Thanks for referring me to the Handbook. I took a look, and realized that there are a couple possibilities: 1. Somebody made a mistake when editing the Handbook. Per pkg, pkg add is always local, not remote. The command sequence shown in the...

Ummm... it's pkg add, not pkg install... The former takes local filenames. The install flag tells pkg to look in a remote repo. And yes, there's a difference - manpages for pkg do go into more detail if you're interested.

I recommend git. here is the book: https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2 ... with git, I am sure you will learn the few commands you need on a daily basis very fast.

In short, if you want to track 15.0-STABLE right now there are a few modules that are not ready yet (i.e. virtualbox-ose-kmod-72-7.2.2 and possibly others). If you want to track releng/15.0 you have to disable the FreeBSD-ports-kmods repository...

With fossil the same: https://fossil-scm.org/home/doc/tip/www/quickstart.wiki

"got" has not the full functionality of "git", but something of fossil: the repository is separated from the check-out.

Yes. You can also find backups of your master.passwd, group, partition info and boot partitions.

An advantage of CVS are the plain text files ... Do you know CVSTrac? http://www.hwaci.com/sw/cvstrac/ And its fossil repository? https://cvstrac.org/home/timeline Its author is the same of fossil and sqlite3.

I use fossil. For files I would use RCS. Fossil has sqlite3 as dependency: it is compiled with it. Fossil saves the commits as sqlite3 db. It belongs in some way, as sqlite3, to the tcl/tk culture. Tcl/Tk uses it as repository. It is in some...
