Is there any way to get it captured?

Interesting that a specialized .NET IDE is available for Linux. But yes, if it gets that special you have a wild ride on FreeBSD.

Yeah I forgot about filesystem mount and remount ordering. dmesg only shows kernel printed messages. Userland startup is not captured.

I did as you suggested but nothing appeared. Maybe there was no write permission. I'll try something else just to make sure. Just trying again noticed that a message about 'read only file system' so rc.initdiskless is actually being executed...

Edit it and put a `echo kilroy was here > /tmp/foo` in it.

I am not entirely convinced of that.

It is used in filesystems/automount. I have amended the relevant code on my system but pkg upgrade pulls in a new version which continues to use lklfuse. https://github.com/vermaden/automount/blob/master/README line 41

Common misconception, PF is a packet filter (and manipulator), not a routing engine. Packet filters do NOT route.

It's not a codec. You might need to fiddle with the pin assignment. See snd_hda.

I ordered a couple from a Polish guy a couple of years ago. Lemme have a look see. That's too bad. Good quality stickers and decals (not only FreeBSD). You may have some luck googling further, I didn't, despite hints from...

pkg seemingly has a 'plugin' infrastructure. Doesn't seem to be used at the moment, also couldn't find much documentation about it. But I suspect it might be possible to write a plugin that automatically creates a bectl snapshot (similar to what...

Order of operations. Needs a new version of https://gitlab.xfce.org/xfce/xfdesktop/-/tags that includes the fix. The x11-wm/xfce4-desktop port gets updated to the new version in main ports branch aka 'latest'. It may or may not be updated in...

It's just a file; /firstboot. Useful if you create images (for VMs for example), the existence of this file can trigger scripts that should be run the first time you boot that image. For example; sysutils/firstboot-freebsd-update to automatically...

I dug into libreoffice more in FreeBSD and found the languagetool for LibreOffice and it installs. https://extensions.libreoffice.org/en/extensions/show/languagetool It works offline. Just got it and tried a sentence, and it showed the first...

I still don't understand the purpose of doing so. I was talking to a guy at a tire store once who told me he had tattoos up his arm and down his body to show his journey through his rough life. I wanted to ask him the same question. Why? Nobody...

Something about the skin in that photo doesn't look real. Like it's coated in plastic or something. And the 'tattoo' looks like it's been drawn on with a marker pen. Very strange-looking skin. Is the OP some kind of shape-shifting grey alien...

Every rc script ends up sourcing /etc/rc.conf.

Don't link stuff from Nazi publications here, thanks. Also, you clearly posted this to address who OP is, not to discuss the subject of OP's post. Don't.

It adds the dependdencies of 1 given package. I never noticed a way to install only 1 package file and ignore everything that it needs. I always use ports and packages mxed and would use that often. The dependencies aren't always really needed...

Prior to 15.0 my fastest install time from wiped disk to the shutdown process that shows the uptime was 2m 43s. 15.0-16.0 with pkg was 4-5 mins. I'm not sure if a part with pkg is affecting times or maybe a difference in installer prompts/layout...

It happened by accident. I never asked the installer to use packages. My selection was for distribution sets. However during the installer process something went wrong (with networking of course), and it had to start over. I'm well aware of...

There is a lot of abuse in the system, in all directions. While there are (a lot) of cases which are misguided, there are also cases where this is the correct way. The question is where you draw the line, this is a spectrum. And even when I...

Use dump to create the backup of the UFS And restore for restoring the system. If you need a step by step procedure let me know.

Any update on lklfuse? Does anyone actually use it?

Just asking.... how can I confirm that it has been executed? Does anything get logged anywhere?

My music library's the largest core files I restore around 2GB. My core stuff is some text files, password database, bookmarks file, user pic, and a couple wallpapers; I can do basically everything any-OS with just those, but the music's cool...

rc.initdiskless is executed automatically during the boot process, no user interaction or configuration necessary.

I'm curiouse myself. The following command is how I populate a jail (or PXE NFSROOTDIR) with pkgbase metapackages (sets). Use pkg -r (--rootdir) to specify where to install the packages, and pkg-install -r ( --repository) to specify the package...

nope, we still don't understand either question

never...my skin is free of ink , you make me remember this bill gates on south park 🤣

Looks like an antiseptic gel cover. And our local hospital has a MRT machine (7T) that will happily turn some types of ink into second or third degree burns. That's another reason why I won't risk getting inked.

Single-Sign-On. It was not actually removed, but replaced by (in fact not) "more secure" code which must fail for I think three different reasons/bugs? I found already...

TheRegister has an xray of some Id=10t going to such an appointment having an "all silicon" toy where the sun don't shine. Turned out to have a steel core. Now THAT will ruin your day.

What vital function was removed?

I prefer not to use a jail manager and use the standard toolset instead. The link to the pkg keys solution is 10 years old. Instead I made sure the keys match those released with with FreeBSD15.0. And made sure they are in the correct directories...

Which method are you using to make the jails? I haven't tried the handbook way, but it looks to be the most manual way available. I personally use bastille, but the other instructions from the projects can be found here...

It wasn't MS remote desktop? I don't remember if it was on by default but it wouldn't surprise me if it works on the outside ip as administrator and no password. 😁 Now I think about it, you had to check something in properties of This PC to allow...

I was starting a dedicated server for a game, installed XP SP2 fresh, and within 5-10 minutes a Messenger exploit just-happened out of nowhere (I didn't touch it beyond getting to post-setup desktop but it was internet-connected) I only saw that...

Just wanted to share my thoughts about the 'state' of porting XLibre to FreeBSD - for me - worked like a charm. I tried XLibre recently when I tried to use as less RAM as possible with some still fully functional and nice looking GUI -...

skhal Would you kindly give me the step-by-step as to how you created those populated datasets, please? The handbook is not helpful and nor have Google searches or even AI inquiries been of any help. I've been stymied by repeated "pkg: Error...

Pretty impressive being able to run a full desktop in a single 256k DIMM (or less!). I definitely intend to give xlibre a spin.

I just bought another X220. It's a bit beaten up, but internals look fine. Keyboard and screen are mint too. It's going to be my 15.0 plus xlibre test machine. This one has 8 GB RAM.

This is an abomination unto DIN and VDE. The work of a heretic, surely drhowarddrfine I have seen boards where some chips were superglued on belly-up and all pins nicely soldered on 5mm of wire to the board. Seems to happen from time to time.

In vim(1) I have a binding that makes 'jk' act like the ESC (in order to set visual mode). I want to set up this binding for the sh command line editor, editline, which can act in the vi-mode as well. The 'bind' command is documented in editrc...
