Look at zroot/var. They're not. They will be mounted, the individual datasets (cloud, cyrus and mysql) are set to be mounted, it doesn't matter what the canmount property of the parent dataset says.

This doesn't look like a dynamic linker search path issue. The shared libraries are missing the embedded version definition. The version of multimedia/ffmpeg I have installed on my system is the same as fff2024g has, but from a previous "latest"...

Be advised, according to the linked freebsd-wireles@ mail from the developer, 15.0-BETA4 (not yet released) will receive the newest driver changes "if I get at least a "good" from someone for iwlwifi". You may want to try STABLE first. If the...

I'm looking for a small FreeBSD VPS in Poland. Any suggestions?

As of December 1st of this year, I will make my last house payment and will be totally debt free sans personal property taxes and utilities.

Nope. Verify that they are in ldconfig path and try again. # service ldconfig start ... # ldconfig -r | grep -E 'lib(avcodec|swscale)' 729:-lswscale.7 => /usr/local/lib/libswscale.so.7 822:-lavcodec.60 => /usr/local/lib/libavcodec.so.60...

Apparently everyone is into CV buffing. Which is fine. They can waste time vibing with AI "learning" a dozen languages per day. It is not a fruitful way to boost your career.

That's the number coming out of a survey: https://survey.stackoverflow.co/2024/technology#3-programming-scripting-and-markup-languages Those learning to code want to try more languages next year compared to their professional counterparts...

No. I’m busy in ASM once again

Just learning the syntax doesn't qualify you as "knowing" the language 😂

There is no limit to the number of languages you can "learn" while "vibe coding".

Do fictional PCs count? I think Deep Thought fits the bill.

Have a look for Usagi Electric on YouTube if that's the level of retro you want :-)

Here are some pictures of some Olivetti machines (as I said not actually weird but really cool design I find):

Hello, Once upon a time..., I setup a FreeNAS box for the company I work for as a Storage-Backend for Proxmox and some smb drives. (I thought about bhyve, but bhyve was not able to start a windows vm, or it was in testing state.) It currently...

I know what I know now (C/C++) and have Stack Overflow for everything else. Learning a language (programming or human) is typically done as a need. "I'm going to italy so I need to learn Italian" or "Job requires Rust, so I need to learn Rust"...

This happened at some point with 14.x as well. I only vaguely remember it, because at some point, I thought I would install it, but didn't find a package. I went to build it on a reasonably powerful machine (32G 16 CPU) and it took over 12 hours...

Yep, 6.5.0, launching from SDDM has been fixed! Next issue to work through is power management - SDDM does require restarting by hand if the monitor goes to sleep. (with service sddm restart, run as root) But at this point, I don't consider it to...

This reminds me of our "local" saying: more stripes, more adidas. It was a pun to counterfit merch that was very popular in early 90s in middle/eastern EU. But if it makes them happy to "learn" that amount; each to his own.

To revert the cursor back, put about:config in the address line. Search for the widget.gtk.legacy-cursors.enabled option and change it to true.

Thanks. Running pkg info -D firefox | less shows the following text: Edit: After changing the widget.gtk.legacy-cursors.enabled setting and restarting Firefox the cursor now changes correctly when hovering over a link.

One does not just walk into Mordor ... Anecdote: Many decades ago, I used the Watcom 32-bit environment on Windows 3.1. There, you could READ memory in many places, including the NULL pointer and similar small addresses. You could even write to...

yes, there is plenty: https://portsfallout.com/fallout?port=www%2Fungoogled-chromium%24

The patch is pretty straightforward: https://github.com/openzfs/zfs/pull/17717/files Looks like 2.2.x is still supported. It just had a release in August. No MFHs to any branches yet, except in a developer's fork...

Well, for one thing, I am extremely grateful for you and those like you who provide such support for this operating system. God bless you all. OK. I will try what you suggest here and will report back as soon as I have done so. At least I have...

I have printed off T-Aoki's latest post, and will follow its directions asap. (I am also involved in another issue with my system: attempting to activate my wireless-connected scanner, but that is a subject for a different thread. At present, I...

Have you deleted x11/nvidia-kmod-470, too, before reinstalling x11/nvidia-driver? The UPDATING entry I've written is for "first upgrade after the mentioned date", not for next and later upgrades. (This is the concept of UPDATING.) Why this...

I did mention, at least once, that my GPU is an Nvidia GeForce GTX-1050i, and so it is. Ken Gordon

LTO is still around. Still crazy expensive.

My target in spring this year was to reduce noise of my workstation. I could, maybe I should write a longer paper about noise reduction and cooling. Including to explode myths about cooling paste. But for the last one some measurement effort was...

Strange. What wireless chip do you have in your T14s? I have some trashy one, not Intel.

One of them is having a Kucyk :)

Wow. But then, the room from Harry Potter, under the stairs, is rumored to be a student apartment in Berlin going for €800,- without utilities.

See if the hardware PCI ID matches one of the AX200 chipsets listed in the "Supported Hardware" and "List of supported cards" (pciconf -lv | grep -B 3 network - vendor, device). Next you can try is run 15.0-STABLE (stable/15) or 15.0-BETA, see...

I have downloaded and installed FreeBSD 15.0 Beta3 onto a thinkpad T14s. Everything is working, onboard amd graphics *check audio *check Iwlwifi wireless *check network speeds up to...

The question remains: does your sync target have to be the booting filesystem on the target machine?

When hitting the open file limit it is the application's responsibility to print errno, which will be "too many open files". If the application fails to do that you can hack up the kernel to print it to the console, or you can use truss/ktrace...

About 13k EUR per year for my daughter's University fee.

The first /etc difference is the hostname in /etc/rc.conf. You can't have two live booting filesystems with them indentical. (I mean it would run, but...).

dd'ing a live rad-write filesystem is not supported (although it often works). It is also hard on SSD wear to do a full dd every time. And you would be screwed if your primary computer gives up in the middle of a dd. The problem with...

There's also kern.maxfiles and kern.maxfilesperproc, both are set dynamically based on kern.maxusers which in turn is calculated based on the amount of memory the machine has. But unless your system only has few KB of memory (which is extremely...
