This is good, because it will force a compliant implementation to come along. 3 major changes so far in 2026 in response to that mailing list thread, hardly any before this most recently. sysutils/lprng is GPL. It didn't work for me on FreeBSD...

How I got Home Assistant running might give you some ideas to try. Save this as a template, uefi-boot.conf for example: loader="uefi" uefi_vars="yes" cpu=1 memory=2048M network0_type="virtio-net" network0_switch="public" disk0_type="virtio-blk"...

I just came across a useful resource for FreeBSD users https://www.youtube.com/@femtopc I finally got Nextcloud up and running, although not quite the way I wanted, but it's a start. Does anyone know how to contact the person who creates the...

I can't seem to get FreeBSD 15 to boot with TowBoot using the ROCKPRO64 img on SD card. I get a scrambled display.

Local LLMs will be no fun on that.

Does CUPS have command-line for adding printers with IPP?

https://lists.freebsd.org/archives/freebsd-arch/2026-February/001202.html > How does OpenBSD handle this? It supports lpd in the basic system. They use the same code with the same bugs. DES

Let me summarize a little. It seems to have started with this bug report. https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=293278 https://reviews.freebsd.org/D55399 des@ tried to fix it, but it seemed to have a fundamental problem, so he...

well instead of forking freebsd you could instead volunteer to maintain the lpr/lpd port, if it matters to you that much

The show often featured Mel Blanc. The voice of Bugs Bunny and a multitude of other cartoon characters. The guy was hilarious.

Yeah that one was funny. In the hackernews article, someone put a Shakespeare quote in there. The results were amusing.

Original article here. Consider this when replying. FreeBSD runs on this… FreeBSD runs on this… and FreeBSD runs on this…! It’s easy to get FreeBSD running on a Raspberry Pi. It’s easy to manage multiple hard drives with ZFS. So we were...

Heh, I remember in high school, my friend Kirk and I used to go right to my house after school to catch Bugs Bunny. School got out at 3:00, Bugs came on at 3:30, and my house was close enough to catch it. It was high school, and I guess, at the...

This movie's English title is Small, Slow but Steady. In its native Japanese title seems more like Keiko Eyes Open Wide, maybe, but maybe a native speaker could give a better translation. (My wife just said, I'm watching TV, leave me alone--err...

Translate English to "LinkedIn Speak" 😆 https://translate.kagi.com/?from=en&to=linkedin I tried PvP banter; I imagine telling another player that would ironically work better 🤣

Btw why does OpenBSD have songs and we don't? We could've had a prog metal epic called pkgbasify for the last release :(

Precisely, there's also the issue that it's a license to use the code in that way, it's not a contract which brings with it any particular obligation beyond the ability to use the source in ways that follow from it. It's also unclear why consumer...

JohnK I love them. I think they had 4 albums and each is different. I found them when they went inactive and disbanded. This band was well known but it didn't generate any traction live. The project leader disbanded it and went on. If a band...

They are signals and they are executed as signal handlers in the target program. Signal handlers have restrictions on what code can be executed in them. One restriction is that they cannot use malloc(3), which precludes use of printf. Without...

If Sony reuse BSD code in the PlayStation, it is responsible of all aspects of the consumer laws of the nation where it commercializes/sells its product. The BSD disclaimer (i.e. "THIS SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED `'AS IS″ AND WITHOUT ANY EXPRESS OR...

Now enroll in a copyright law course. Do you think judges in Brazil have studied only "consumer law course" and it is all necessary for their work? Or you think that consumer law is at highest level of all laws?

The fun thing about products like PlayStation is that Sony does not sell PlayStation under the BSD license. Sony sells an entirely new product composed, in part, of BSD-licensed components under their own terms. If Sony were to sell a compiled...

Please, please explain the words you are using. Few people outside Brasil know what organization PROCON is. It is the consumer protection agency. And people outside Brasil think they know what a "promotor" is: either someone who does advertising...

Cheers. That said, Eelco van Kleffens was the UN president in 1954. Thought we had more, but there's only ever been one. Accidentally learned some Dutch history today :D Crivens isn't Dutch. I resolutely dislike karnemelk, it is revolting...

Is DutchDaemon on the list?

A unicode support for ee(1) has just been added into -CURRENT.

lang/php85 installs php-fpm. I'm not sure how you would find it if you didn't know where to find it. A lot guides tell you to install php8*-fpm, which is incorrect since it does not exist although it may have done at one point.

It's likely without a dash; I did pkg install freenginx-devel php85 days ago (fpm's included)

If you want to grab the text cut everything before ':' + space # echo '16/05/25, 13:57 - +1 (424) 303-9930: Hi' | sed 's|^.*: ||' Hi ( I prefer to use the | separator rather than /, this avoids having to escape \/)

The problem is searching for something which doesn't exist finds nothing. Whilst the program php-fpm does exist, it is not a dedicated pkg. I haven't figured what actually installs it.

I love Kalmah! It's another one of my favorite bands.

FreeBSD was so boringly stable I went to CURRENT for more excitement :p I got this song from a Crysis video :p (Moon Of My Nights) View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qz7Ad0JmhfA

I shall look depeer into this

Suggestion(s): 1. try to get into the habit of using `pkg search -Q full <pkg>` 2. try to get in the habit of using pkg origins. 3. try to get into the habit of using "glob". -e.g. `pkg search -g "php8[0-9]-f*"`.
