No. It's loaded as 4th line of your dmesg shows. Just not working as of mis-match with kernel. So, request 1 by bakul in post #27 is important here. If you're building ports locally, running (or to be run after next reboot) kernel and kernel...

1. Show us what "uname -a" says. Make sure you have 14.3. or else your upgrade to 14.3 failed. 2. Show us the first "url:" line in /etc/pkg/FreeBSD.conf -- it should be url: "pkg+https://pkg.FreeBSD.org/${ABI}/quarterly", 3. pkg install -f...

At the moment, cities that are continuously inhabited since before the bronze era till today are being destroyed, flattened.

Rust on FreeBSD is comfortable to use. You can install it without issue with rustup. Several of us will fix anything Linux-centric in Rust build mechanisms (see for example two of my commits against rust language repository here and here from...

Is it a good idea to move to pkgbase for 15-Release? Or should we wait and stick with the permanent solution until more people have tested pkgbase thoroughly? What do you think?

Pepper is from India, but not the (pickled) pepperoni you see there, that is from America. Do you imagine Europe without tomato and potato? America conquered Europe!

I do not know if you are German, but that is typical German humor.

I've had fun before. It was awful!

Hi. My custom built BSD with bspwm and Librewolf.

You could make a VM with an old FreeBSD and use disk passthrough to use it for creating the pools. Alternatively you could once create such a zpool on an old system in a small size that you store as a disk image. When you want to format a new...

Let's think about your goals. If it's to coordinate ports about gaming available for FreeBSD, what you need is a games@freebsd.org mailing list, like we've for Perl, Python, etc. and a group of ports tree committers willing to take care of games...

Not sure, perhaps below links. There are regional variations. Chickpeas are original from the region. The herbs you see is just parsley. Very typical are the tomato, cucumber, hot pepper, olives. Of course olives are since time immemorial there...

I guess they'll add a 'not match' flag to the command. Or maybe I just don't know the proper regex to use... # pkg info -q | grep -v '^FreeBSD-' | xargs pkg delete -y The following also work if you don't have any third-party packages that start...

In the future the zpool command will have composite commands that know symbols like "compatible with this old version" or "compatible with Linux". Until then the only sure way is to actually try the created zpool on the lower system. Or of...

You can try simply untarring a release tarball over the running system. I forgot whether I ever did that. Remember to exclude /etc when untarring.

Running your own mail server is irrelevant. What is relevant is using an MUA that allows you to look at the full list of SMTP headers. I use exmh2, sometimes nmh or claws-mail. All let me look at the SMTP headers. My phone, which receives a...

Continue updating, 14.1 is EoL. https://www.freebsd.org/security/#sup

Probably worthwhile to also explore autofs(5). It's a component to automount disks. The devd daemon is responsible to propage events like "a USB drive has been inserted", so yes, a devd rule seems a good idea. notify 100 { match "system"...

I had mentioned this somewhere else before. It would seem to me that FreeBSD devs first choice should be this one and all others (social forums) would be secondary. Someone I know asked a well-known dev on reddit why he posted there and not...

Totally random at first when I was teenager: In 1999, we wanted a dedicated server to host websites and IRC bots and to be cool kids. In summer 2000, we had collected the funds for that (was still expansive at that moment). Someone associated...

That's weird. It should have worked. You might have an other issue here. # /etc/netstart ... Created wlan(4) interfaces: wlan0. ...

Since upgrading to FreeBSD 14.1, the following error messages has started appearing on every shutdown: VBoxManage: error: Failed to initialize COM! (hrc=NS_ERROR_FAILURE) I have installed emulators/virtualbox-ose. What does this mean?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe you can't. The kernel module won't be able to read features added (even improved?) after 2.1.

I guess they'll add a 'not match' flag to the command. Or maybe I just don't know the proper regex to use... # pkg info -q | grep -v '^FreeBSD-' | xargs pkg delete -y The following also work if you don't have any third-party packages that start...

So now, how do we clean up the system so that only the base system remains? We only clean up third-party packages. The base FreeBSD system remains.

Almost all FreeBSD developers are volunteers. They look at whatever social media sites suit them. There are far too many to participate in them all.

I checked dmesg -a and discovered a couple of things which I am having some difficulty "translating". I'll list them in order. atrtc0 can't map interrupt hdac1 CODEC at address 2 not responding KLD nvidia-modeset.ko depends on kernel not...

It's clearly odd! What can be seen if you run strings /boot/modules/nvidia-modeset.ko | grep 580 | tail -n 1 strings /boot/modules/nvidia-modeset.ko | grep 570 | tail -n 1 strings /boot/modules/nvidia.ko | grep 580 | tail -n 1 strings...

I will go back to the system, re-read all the logs, copy out those lines that appear to have some relation to this problem, and revisit my thinking on it. Thanks for the help, folks. Ken Gordon

I am tempted, at this point, to upgrade to 15.0-STABLE....and if THAT doesn't cure the problem, then I am (not) looking forward to rebuilding the entire system from scratch. Rats. Well, my files are named xorg.conf and "reside" in two places...

No. It is not there. There is no NVIDIA_GLX-1.0 directory in directory /usr........./doc, and I have NOT explicitly disabled the DOC option. Also, I have tried find in various iterations to find that file, and although I find MANY different...

I have checked all the xorg.conf files and all are correct. Ken Gordon

When I try to install anything related to nvidia, the response is that they have all already been installed. They seem to be named correctly. Yes. Attempting to install that the response is "already installed". Yes. And nvidia-modeset is...

As a kind of follow up to this---I tried with the Gentoo livegui CD and still couldn't get a GUI. I'm assuming that they have the GUI CD with all possible drivers and USE flags that one would want. So, maybe at some point, I'll try on a Linux...

The wlan0 interface has not been created. You can try to run /etc/netstart. If that doesn't work, try to create the interface manually. # ifconfig wlan0 create wlandev ath0

I don't think the FreeBSD developers would be able to keep up with the demands from the "gamer community" whilst also maintaining a decent operating system. I personally don't think we should encourage them to come here even after they have...

Well, I guess the idea would be that there are no dependencies of main ports tree to things in the games ports tree. That way the games tree could be as broken as it wants without affecting the main ports.

Well, the Greek is more or less right. The way he says it not very polite. In the whole region is the breakfast heavy, broad beans, Hummus (Chickpeas), Olives, ... One could say 'Ottoman culture' and ask himself what is really Turkish there...

Compare it with the Turkish breakfast I just casually found on my tweeter account (BTW, the Greek in the commentaries has doubts it Turkish): View: https://x.com/UmarQadmiri/status/1981906574684672349

Non-carnivores better look away again... You can still get some nice grub in England. This was a pub lunch at the weekend. The beer is a locally brewed IPA, very nice beer. The ham is dry cured local new forest ham and the cheese is a special...

I seem to remember all the best parties seemed to end up in the kitchen, around 1 or 2 in the morning.... 😁

Here’s my simple minded explanation of Rust’s borrow checking: You can have any number of immutable references to an object (none of them are allowed to change any part of the object) or *one* mutable reference that can change the object. Either...

I think that linear types are a pretty neat idea. I think its a bit much to have a whole language built around them but it would be interesting to hack it into C, kind of like this implementation.

The Vale example is a compile-time check that raises an error: https://verdagon.dev/blog/higher-raii-7drl#a-real-world-example I spent some time at work this week wading through hundreds of compiler warnings, looking for the actual compilation...

Freebsd is severely understaffed already. Fragmenting the ports tree would only make it worse.
