The graphics2d module now includes the initial implementation of a C API, making it possible to support additional programming languages. The CPU renderer also no longer relies on external dependencies beyond zlib. #include...

your drive is probably hosed. some SSDs go read-only instead of turning into bricks. Check their smart status.

They can be, in my experience there's a ton of padding and unless you appreciate dance as an artform, it can be really hard to get into as each time a musical number starts it completely stops the plot and often times you'll hit the point where...

A browser that satisfy modern requirements is the most disruptive piece of software.

Just listen to the noise of the disk.

This is kind of sad. 200MB to run a bunch of xterms and brag about it when not so long ago windows xp could run office in 128MB windows 95 could run office with 16MB sgi O2 shipped with 32MB you could run kde with 32MB a basic twm install worked...

By the way, you can destroy all boot environments (which are in fact ZFS snapshots), except the default, all at once, or a range of BE's. See /usr/share/games/fortune/freebsd-tips: You can delete a range of ZFS snapshots (a-z) in multiple...

The little man may not be human flesh but it is highly likely watching and recording individual sessions (for future processing once this generation of encryption is broken). But, lets say embedded youtube is loading on your machine (or you even...

So there is a little man in a backroom? I "fight back", and other violent terms, by writing or calling my political representative and voting for or against them if they don't see my way. That's how it's supposed to work in my country but people...

I do cause I don't want to get stuck with one of them failing for some reason and I have to backtrack for some reason. Habit from decades past when it could be a house of cards collapsing onto itself. I only want to deal with one thing at a time.

Look at the flags, The Active field indicates whether the boot environment is active now (N); active on reboot (R); is used on next boot once (T); or combination of (NRT). If an entry has NO flags, it can be safely...

Not intending to start an editor war but; I spent many years using vi and vim but in time I got frustrated with maintaining the config files and dealing with differences on various systems I worked on remotely. I found that I was typically having...

At least you don't have to shovel rain :)

Do you mean by "login prompt" and "background" the XDM login greeter? How did you configure xdm to start? Over /etc/ttys or /etc/rc.conf xdm_enable="YES" ?

Just pulled the latest update. The issue I reported is resolved. This is testing on my VM at work. I will test on my home computer with multi-monitor this weekend.

As long as you don't put all eggs into one basket... Also, radioactive decay is not as random as you might want it to be.

In the "traditional" way you have a disk, a disk is typically split up in partitions, and each partition contains a filesystem. The "disk" isn't empty, but one or more of its partitions might be. The size of the partition is static, an 'empty'...

Nowadays people are only concerned about the money as in profits. The guys who made Unix were just trying to make a better OS for the company's sake. No outside investors. No thoughts of profit/loss when it was sold. No concern with how fast they...

Me neither. What bothers me is, when there is something new developed, people flapping around, hyping things. Annoying. In german we say: "Nothings is eaten as hot as it's cooked." But above all telling others, all we there is now is obsolete...

I keep a couple of pounds of plutonium around just for that rainy day when I need it.

Well, the one I just did was on a fresh install, and I hadn't chosen to install sources, so I'm guessing it was. Sorry you had trouble, and thanks for sharing your issue. I'm going to add it on my page.

Changing the target directory in gitup.conf makes difference.😅 I wonder, scottro, was your /usr/src empty?

I think it's already a problem because the system starts with only a CLI. You have to manually install something to get a GUI. A good option is to use a USB SSD of 32GB or so and try out different GUI installations using pkg install. You still...

This is what the rc script does: iocage_start() { if checkyesno ${rcvar}; then echo "* [I|O|C] starting jails... " /usr/local/bin/iocage start --rc fi } start Start a jail identified by UUID or NAME. Use [ALL]...

Silly question perhaps, but what do you plan to run or manage on that server? Webservers (nginx, apache, etc.) for example don't have a GUI configuration tool, so why would you need a GUI or desktop?

My /etc/rc.conf contains iocage_enable="yes" Does this actually start jails at boot time? I presumed I needed it to be able to actually install/run jails. Have I misunderstood the point of this command?

As far as I know, bhyve doesn't have a built-in PXE/DHCP service. You can configure an external service. For example, this method generates cloud images for a CBSD library (there may be information here that will be useful even without a CBSD)...

That's an off by one error.

C+ is the grade we got in some of our college classes,,,..,.

That's why the joke is that the successor to COBOL will be named COBOL POSTINCREMENT BY ONE.

There is indeed no DHCP server builtin bhyve, sysutils/vm-bhyve doesn't have anything either. CBSD might have something included though.

Perhaps I misunderstand the issue, but I could find no mention of an (built-in) "in-bhyve dhcp server" in either the documentation or the source code. When I was talking about a dhcp server in bhyve, I meant a 3rd party application installed in...

Do you actually need Bluetooth? If its builtin you can probably turn it off in the BIOS/UEFI.

Which version of FreeBSD are the server and clients running on? Which version(s) of NFS are the server and clients (as a mount option) using? NFSv3 or NFSv4? How is the exports file (or ZFS "sharenfs", see /etc/zfs/exports) configured? I do...

The top level dataset of the pool is empty.

Not on the pool itself, but it also creates a "top" level dataset, that does have the canmount, mountpoint etc properties. dice@maelcum:~ % zpool list NAME SIZE ALLOC FREE CKPOINT EXPANDSZ FRAG CAP DEDUP HEALTH ALTROOT zroot...

When you create a ZFS pool the "top" dataset will get mounted on a directory with the same name as the pool. The /zroot directory is because a zroot pool was created.

Also note, you have a pass in quick ..., which short-circuits the rules. Thus nothing from your enemigos block rule will get hit.

ADD 1 TO COBOL GIVING COBOL. Another version of the same joke. A few months ago, I downloaded some Cobol compiler for fun, and spent an evening with a single glass of wine writing an 80-line program, and got it to work. It was fun, but I'm so...

And you can reallly trust that the collected data won't all be leaked as part of a major breach in a few years... (or sold) what utter folly.

It's worth trying for real. I use square graph notebooks for projects since ages. If I lose all hardware by a disaster, I only have to look at this to remember everything. :cool:

Hi, I just installed a 14.3 VM and when I ran gitup, after editing my /usr/local/etc/gitup.conf so that release read 15.0, I was able to run gitup release without a problem. It may have been a temporary glitch that bxbzq ran into.
