I switched to Firefox ESR 140.4.0, but the cursor problem persists.

That's not what the graphs are telling me. The number of users has been growing quite steadily. It may have had some dips here or there, but overal the numbers are rising.

hi, sorry to hear that. Nothing we could see from "smartctl" indicated that a total fault was about to happen. As the media itself did not show excessive errors , I can speculate that onboard HDD controller was marginal...

I run x11-wm/e16 version 1.0.31 on FreeBSD 14.3-p5.

Same for me on 14.3-RELEASE-p5, firefox-144.0_2,2.

Looks fine for me FreeBSD 15.0, Firefox 140.4.0esr

Interesting — I have the same problem with Firefox installed in a FreeBSD 14.3-p5 virtual machine. It first appeared in Firefox version 142.

You can try to trace the wlan_up() function located in /etc/network.subr wlan_up() { local -; set -x # add this, don't forget to remove after. ... } # ifconfig wlan0 destroy # /etc/netstart

Nothing's wrong. ZFS isn't mounted through /etc/fstab.

After upgrading Firefox to version 144, the cursor no longer changes from an arrow to a hand when hovering over a link. This issue doesn't occur on other operating systems. Do you experience the same problem with Firefox on FreeBSD?

Yes, I confirm. It seems harmless, though. I have a W11, a Pop-OS and a FreeBSD 15 VM all perfectly running under Virtualbox 7.2.4 .

Good article with clear explanation, thanks.

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.

No space. Under the xterm of 14.3

I'm actually at 14.3S with pkgbase with no issues whatsoever.

I dare you to go to YouTube and search for the OTR channel. Lots of documentaries about food history, including salt, Chili, breakfast, ... Easy was to the question "Hmm, where did all the day go?"

Sony already did the heavy lifting, but I'm in no rush to buy a PS6. I don't have the money for a new toy like that, and I don't have political motivations to do that just because PlayStation is based on FreeBSD. Send me a PS6 for Christmas, buy...

Thank you all for the suggestions. I will follow up on those asap. Dinner time here now, and we have guests. I must admit to getting darned tired of dealing with this issue. I MAY decide to wait until Ver. 15-RELEASE is available, and then do a...

vermaden, Thank you for your efforts!

Good article with clear explanation, thanks.

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...

Jeez, that's a handful.

I use tcsh shell so... ~> node -e "console.log ('<\u2122>');console.log ('XTERM_VERSION = ' + process.env['XTERM_VERSION']);" <™> XTERM_VERSION = XTerm(402) Edit: LANG=LC_ALL=it_IT.UTF-8

Something's still wedged: (bash) % LC_CTYPE=C.UTF-8 printf '<\u2122>\n' <â ¢> xterm 403.

Then:

At least one of my "pointer-files" showed mirror_type "none" there, where it should have shown as you show it above. Ken Gordon

FYI: The original file to be installed as /etc/pkg/FreeBSD.conf for quarterly on 14.3 contains mirror_type: "srv", line for pkg+https protocol.

The following are photos of the results of certain commands requested by some who are trying to help me come to a conclusion on these issues. The first one shows the results of inputting uname -a as root: Next, shows the result of some of the...

Yes, there are multiple typos in that post because I am not copying from my FreeBSD system, but am writing it all down on paper, then typing it in here. I am 83 years old and my eyesight is no longer very good. So, here are two photos of what I...

Hi. My custom built BSD with bspwm and Librewolf.

Hmm. You don't need an SMTP server to do any filtering. You can filter using procmail, nmh's slocal or any MUA that can filter. Sure you can use an SMTP server to filter but other client-based tools such as the ones listed will also do the job...

While I'm certainly partial to a nice ripe Camembert, or a good Roquefort, there are clear examples of where British cheese outshines the French. Cheddar is one. Aged Cantal is usually recommended as a substitute, but it just can't compete.

$ printf '<\u2122>\n' <™> $ echo $XTERM_VERSION XTerm(402)

bash: % printf '<\u2122>\n' <?>

> echo $XTERM_VERSION XTerm(403) > bash -c "printf '<\u2122>\n'" <™>

Hmm... My FreeBSD-16-current xterm: % /usr/bin/printf '<\u2122>\n' <u2122>

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

I solved the problem using virtual_oss. In my case, integrated microphone on my ThinkPad X220 works fine even without virtual_oss in simple cases (for example, if you just send the output from the microphone to the speakers, everything would...

Better insight on Garum. https://www.tastinghistory.com/episodes/truegarum

The same error occurs on 14.3 as well.

I'm not trying to be derogative (I play the occasional game myself) but the majority of the gaming community are not likely to subscribe to a mailing list. That isn't to say they can't learn but I am fairly certain it will be a blocker for a...

uname -ashows 14.3-RELEASE-p5. I remember this from doing it a few days ago. I'll re-run that the next time I boot into FreeBSD (I am in Win10 just now) and will list the exact output from the command. That URL line is...

No need to work that hard. Find an old game that has been open-sourced, and get it to work on FBSD: https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/half-life-in-4-easy-steps.80394/ https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/any-interest-in-tribal-trouble-1.75319/ I...

I'm confused, I'm not sure I understand the question. You want to create a pool that will work with zfs-2.1? If that so, the following should work... I guess. # zpool create -o compatibility=/usr/share/zfs/compatibility.d/openzfs-2.1-freebsd ...
