To clarify, that should recursively go through every link and fetch the data. The fact it is a "website" is not quite so important. It should also have an ftp http mirror...

wget has a file reject list you can use. (--reject rejlist) e.g. --reject jpg,png --accept html (or the other way round) https://www.gnu.org/software/wget/manual/wget.html#Types-of-Files

Thus the problem. There is an article online that says the free AI tools are not what company programmers use. Those types pay for the AI tools they use and that means hundreds of dollars a month. Even then the generated code has to be gone...

For a (mostly) trouble free upgrade, it's always a good idea to simply disable everything you don't strictly need during the upgrade process. Kernel modules, services, etc. Strip it down to the bare minimum. After you've completely finished the...

Minor version upgrades -> two times freebsd-update install Major version upgrades -> three times acpi_ibm and acpi_call kernel modules are included with the kernel update, so those shouldn't be a problem. Anything that's part of the FreeBSD...

I'm not bothered about copying a website. What I wanted was to just get the files from http://http.us.debian.org/debian/dists/trixie/main/installer-amd64/current/images/netboot/

It's a public website. I had forgotten that wget does a recursive retrieval so I did that, but got a ton of html files which I don't want. Not sure if there is a straightforward way of deleting them all.

Settle down folks. hedwards nothing wrong with your suggestions, and the graphics console/VNC connection is a fine way to access the GUI of a VM. But we're dealing with SSH and X-Forwarding here.

Kindly take your own advice here. Hopefully some kind mod can just delete my posts from in here because it's just not a valuable use of my time responding to people that can't be bothered to read, or understand what I've posted. The first...

Is this a desktop system? During the upgrade you might want to disable kld_list. When upgrading a major version you might have issues loading kernel modules (like graphics/drm-kmod) that were installed for the previous version. The system might...

Thanks. Need to update it though. But things changed with the latest version and I may need to redo the entire port from scratch. Haven't had the time for that yet.

Better not to write documentation for unknown Software, with or without AI.

On question of whether Windows users should switch to FreeBSD, I think there is still too much "some assembly required". I just ran into a good example tonight. I wanted to turn on IPv6 privacy, where it changes the host part of the IPv6...

I recall httrack being an OK web archiver.

Uhm, I don't think so. Bash, by itself, is just a pretty good POSIX/bourne-based shell with lots of nice features. Still fewer than zsh (and also less liberally licensed if that's important for your scenario), but anyways, it's a pretty good...

Don't do that. # # To disable a repository, instead of modifying or removing this file, # create a /usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/FreeBSD.conf file, e.g.: #

No, only put the options you want to overrule in there, like the url. You don't copy /etc/defaults/rc.conf to /etc/rc.conf either. It's a similar situation.

Updated/fixed with Your command instead. Thank You for pointing that out.

pw usermod sshd -G nslcd Careful with that one. If, for some reason, the sshd user was a member of additional groups, those would get removed. This adds the sshd user to the nslcd group, leaving the additional groups sshd might be a member of...

I saw "FreeIPA" and thought, oh, cool - a free beer!:beer:

Updated/fixed with Your command instead. Thank You for pointing that out.

Furthermore: net/rclone net/rsync

You can also use rsync if you have SSH access — it is usually a better equivalent to cp -a over the network: rsync -avz user@remote-host:/path/to/dir . For HTTP-only access, wget --mirror works, but as mentioned, directory listing must be...

You know scp exists? Other than that, wget can download directories, but DirectoryIndex has to be enabled, there's no way to figure out the contents of a web directory through the regular HTTP(S) protocol.

Yes, but as mentioned above, I sometimes have to start my window manager with dbus-launch but it's not consistent--that is, sometimes I don't have to do that. The essential thing, again with fcitx5-anthy, is to also have fcitx5-qt6 installed. I...

You might be interested in my neovim config: https://sirdice.nl/random_things/nvim-lazy

ChapinTokyo I only know that in regular FreeBSD, *sometimes* though this hasn't been consistent, I had to change my startx entry from exec openbox (or exec dwm) to exec dbus-launch openbox. (and also being sure to install fcitx5-qt6). But as...

You're right and I missed that. Thanks, and apologies to fernandel

You know scp exists? Other than that, wget can download directories, but DirectoryIndex has to be enabled, there's no way to figure out the contents of a web directory through the regular HTTP(S) protocol.

I want to copy a subdirectory tree from a website, effectively cp -a remote-host/dir .. How would I do that? I can download files individually via my browser but would like to duplicate the remote directory.

Unless I'm mistaken, fernandel isn't using pkgbase. He just wants to upgrade a system from 14.3 to 15 with freebsd-update. It's time to look at pkgbase. It's what I'm doing with several VMs and I'm writting a new set of jail management scripts...

No. It's graphics/mesa-dri that depends on graphics/wayland. x11/xorg depends on graphics/mesa-dri. Xorg has no direct dependency on Wayland, why would it? But even if graphics/wayland is installed, as long as you have a "regular" Xorg (startx or...

Perhaps not consciously, but wayland seems to be there: 1) you used waypipe 2) xwayland is an X server that runs on top of wayland. wayland is meant to substitute X11 (like substituting apples with sausages), and since those that have wayland...

Note that graphics/drm-kmod pulls in graphics/drm-510-kmod on 13.2 and graphics/drm-61-kmod on 14.3.

What's the goal? I think cuse(3) is a library, so you have to apply it in C... I used cuse4bsd as part of a webcam viewer but I don't remember the exact function. Is that what you're talking about? (It's now obsolete and not a port anymore but...

Is there a reason for using the legacy x11-drivers/xf86-video-intel instead of graphics/drm-61-kmod?

Perhaps there is the problem, perhaps you have wayland installed and running X11 as xwayland on top of the wayland crap.

Please, go use wayland and do not mix in discussions about X11. It is not your business.

Yes, make incorrect things, some AI engines more, some less, the ones correct it faster when you say it, the others not. I think, you are expecting too much of AI. Just try it, experiment, see what it is and do not expect what it not is. We are...

It's now been close to 3 weeks, and zfs import still hasn't completed. I'm wondering if it ever will. AlfredoLlaquet if I was to reboot the machine now, could it be any worse than it was earlier? Thanks

It is, but I didn't see the OP specifying that X forwarding being essential or anybody asking if other options would be acceptable. There are a few situations where literal X forwarding is the solution, but it hasn't been established that any of...
