... and often the cache memory of the CPU, leading to abysmal performance and lots of questions like "how does that code full of function calls be faster than my linear heap of template code the compiler can optimize perfectly?"
That doesn't match my experience. When launched via a login manager such as dtlogin it runs as user nobody while still trying to write its logs in /var/logs, failing miserably of course unless I change the permissions to 777.
I have just pushed out the new release of XLibre, 2.1.0, to xlibre-ports.
The release 25.1.0 wiki page:
https://github.com/X11Libre/xserver/wiki/XLibre-XServer-25.1-Changes
A very short summary of what is new:
We had over 1,500 commits since the...
Absolutely this is the case. Managing complexity is important and often comes via intuition through experience.
Many of our juniors at work write really impressive code, consuming every C++ feature under the sun but often it is too complex that...
Yeah, I am sure I screwed it up with the mirrors. Sadly I didn't do the sane choice of backing the up before modifying them as per the fix previously provided.
pkg -vv | sed -nE -e '/(OSVERSION|ABI|BACKUP)/ p' -e '/^Repositories:/,$ p'...
Yes. You can see an early preview in GhostBSD that was based around XFCE window manager, XFCE panel, and GNUstep. The native GNUstep replacements for Window Manager, and global menu server are shaping up. There is a gershwin-build repo in the...
Well, I have solved the problem, in a more radical way. I just compiled drm-kmod 5.10 drivers from source right on target machine. It just builds! The i95kms.ko driver works fine, my kids can now watch Yoube on this old MacBook (that was the...
This is a great question, and reminds me I should refocus my introduction around that here:
https://github.com/gershwin-desktop/gershwin-desktop
I'll try not to hijack this thread much more and do a proper introduction later.
Why make a...

Powerdevil will restart at the next login. Just disable kde power management in system settings, as mentioned in other threads this is the only thing that works. It has been like this since...forever.

FYI: Picked related arch / version restrictions from ports Makefiles.
drm-510-kmod:
ONLY_FOR_ARCHS= aarch64 amd64 i386 powerpc64 powerpc64le
ONLY_FOR_ARCHS_REASON= the new KMS components are only supported on amd64, i386, aarch64, and...
Is it possible to use virtual_oss to create a device, that mixing output and input and available for recording?
I can easily route my mic to new device with virtual_oss -S -C 2 -c 2 -r 48000 -b 16 -s 1024 -f /dev/dsp3 -c 2 -b 16 -d vdsp.virtual...
I did a build of current RTEMS these days to evaluate it for $JOB, and it is interesting what happened in the last years. Thanks for making me dig it out of my swapped out memory areas 😎
I have to say, I tough everything worked, until I tried to install a package and it froze looking for it. I tried updating and upgrading, and it just loops without doing anything....

And it gets worse. You might ask - how can RAM have firmware when it doesn't know what processor architecture it is getting stuffed...
It's worth reading the TrueNAS Hard Drive Troubleshooting Guide. Current_Pending_Sector count (197) greater than zero indicates that
"the drive has failed for RMA purposes".
ZFS is indicating that you may be able to read files and save them...
1) Others HAVE seen this problem and even filed a PR.
2) I suppose, it's NOT a FreeBSD problem -- but it's definitely MY problem right now :). And grub2 problem, too. But it has worked fine until and including 14.3-RELEASE, then it suddenly stops...
Why doesn't anybody mention the fact, that after freebsd-update install & reboot you get error "can't find libsys.so.7
" and a completely unusable system?
So what I had to do is , first of all, copy /lib/libsys.so.7 into /lib from the install...
Reporting on smashing success on my end of things:

Best part? SDDM friggin' works to start Plasma Wayland session! Oh, and the issues with power management that I complained about in November? resolved! Session gets restored, no need...

Those are "ar archives". From the man 1 ar manual page:
The normal use of ar is for the creation and maintenance of libraries

I don't know if this helps. But I have a 15.0 install on laptop, started as somehthinkg much earlier a few years ago, and this time, was updated with FreeBSD update. Today, I decided it should use pkg so downloaded and ran pkgbasify. When I...
Hi there!
If you use 86Box to emulate different eras of PCs, you might notice that after the 5.0 version which added an UI manager, they included floppy disk sounds, but the script used in FreeBSD to install multiple machine ROMS is not updated...
