Solved: now patched in main by the Author, per 294114

Because it has the power to serve.

It's the only major BSD OS with an official forum. A few minor BSD's have a forum on their website, thus making theirs official for theirs. I stopped trying to see it as official, when a BSD doesn't have a hosted forum. The German and French...

I use xfce workspaces each with several running xfce-terminals, which I may bring to full screen with F11 key. Some of these xfce-terminal sessions being attached to other devices via ssh have tmux sessions running. I've wondered if it wouldn't...

Let's not overdo the Linux hate. If you think Windows gives more user control than Ubuntu then you didn't use anything after Windows 7. Ubuntu still uses GNU and FOSS stuff which still have (and always will have) normal user interaction patterns...

CPUs are becoming rare too. All this is affecting server orders at our datacentres. Orders that took a month now require six to twelve months of lead time. Sometimes more.

All working now. Thanks very much!

Does driver version 580.142 (landed at commit 0af72ff3039f33cbd95b8a8f364117181acc635c on latest [aka main] branch) help? Note that it would pull in newly added graphics/egl-wayland2 (dma-buf based implementation) for non-legacy versions.

When booting from my existing FreeBSD partition I assume I need to mount the ZFS partition like so /dev/ada0p8 /mnt then cd /mnt run this script from there. Where do I extract kernel.txz and base.txz ? To /mnt ?

It's best to use gpt labels. As bios can rename disks. Note when not many commands, drop to commandline from install media. I looked at script of T-Daemon looks good. Just edit specific parts for your specific system , copy to install media &...

Mind you, that was after we first were among the pioneers of green energy and that fell then to the conservatives and the lobbyists. Wind and Solar got "Altmeierd", and the Chinese saw that the things were working and picked up the ball. The same...

What's the old saying? "Linux is for people who hate Windows. BSD is for people who love Unix." This is much more reality now than ever before. Most of the people I see flocking to Linux nowadays are doing so because they can run an...

Alright, and are you sure firefox isn't still running in the background somewhere? All sessions have to be closed beforehand.

Can I run this while booted from a different partition on the same disk?[/code]

That script is ancient: "shigeyas/setup-zfs-root-filesystem.sh Created 14 years ago" It creates zroot/usr/home datasets. The official installer creates zroot/home for some time now. Use the script down below. It is extracted from a...

Does blank storage device include a new partition on an existing disk which includes other bootable OSes?

that script creates a ZROOT pool with all requied ZFS filesystems, To create a ZFS POOL and Filesystem on a blank storage device do: # zpool create newpool devicename # zfs create...

JohnK and mer , it is not about specifying an include path. I am depicting a scenario where there is no joint, correct, include path. The .c files have respective -I set, with different values. The LSP is configured with compiler execution...

I can't really agree to that. Indexing, for example the complete RTEMS code base, takes not that long to start with. KDevelop knows what a makefile is and offers the build targets to be made in the IDE, also the project gets imported from a raw...

It's a big toolbox. After a few weeks of trying early Xfce and lots of ports. I found out I could copy the entire filesystem to another PC with nfs. That was always a problem with Windows and Mac. It was at the start of the Pentium time. PC's...

drhowarddrfine Ah, ok. That is the loophole. They have brought the workers to construct the factory, they are not regular factory workers. For the background: Orban currently on the naughty list of many a state leaders of the EU, and I very...

Note that the Google link I provided was a search of this forum but, otherwise, use whatever search engine you like. There is a search link at the top right of this page but, for some reason, was very slow when I tried it.

NPR (National Public Radio) yesterday. I was in the car listening to the radio. I'll try and find a link. EDIT: Actually it was The World which is carried on my local NPR station: The World

I remember an episode of top gear where Clarkson took a Corvette around the track and after the first round things started to rattle and fall off.

Source? That could invite a serious stomping of your fourth point of contact from Brussels, and that is among the last things the powers that be want to have right now.

I want to remind everybody that yesterday was April 1st.

Back in the 1980s, when the Chevrolet Corvette was still produced in my town, a co-worker's brother was a big Corvette enthusiast and arranged a tour of the plant and invited me along. It was there we found out that they allowed over 200 defects...

I don't want to sound unfriendly but...............**sigh** This gets asked all over the internet almost every day. A simple Google search will provide you a million and one answers to the question. For that matter, a a forum search here

China is starting to build EVs in Budapest. The news story I heard just yesterday is they are employing slave labor tactics by importing their own citizens and working them 12 hour days, 7 days a week which has caught the ire of human rights...

I'd imagine the structural size of elements in there is so wide that radiation does not matter much. Like we say, "mechanics milled from a massive block" They have. Once they had a sonic resonance wave moving around the chamber and when it...

Post the exact error. Not your interpretation of it.

Where are you defining that variable? And from where are you starting Firefox?

I think that those look like they are also crashing under uid 80 - the www user, so not what you are seeing where the behaviour is just under the CLI. But does give you another couple of things to try as workarounds - 14.4 or PHP 8.2 (but that's...

I appreciate you help! Yes our problem seems to be under CLI only, what we can see right now. We should have moved away from 13.x way sooner, but we have had a couple of hectic last 3 years. A few problems with CURL dropping support for OpenSSL...

Does anyone watch TV provided via an Internet connection? Who is the provider? I presume a FreeBSD box would be usable for viewing.

View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xx7Lfh5SKUQ And if you want to know more about hardware designed to work long time in radiation dense settings, the mars rover is still at it. Also some interesting view. View...

Why do you ask? What do you use currently and why?

Also, https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/introduce-yourself-tell-us-who-you-are-and-why-you-chose-freebsd.68079/

Yes, true! Someone pointed me to this PR, more people seem to have a similar problem: https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=291622#c14 291622

That makes it a bit more difficult. Might have to set up a separate test system and see if you can reproduce the issue there and then starting adding debug statements until you can track down what line(s) cause the issue. Or if it is getting to...

Returning to an old post... I could never understand the meanings of bind-key, bind and bind -n Presumably bind-key v split-window -v means send prefix + v. What does the '-v' at the end signify? bind @ display-message "hello, world!."...

Can I use this script to create a ZFS filesystem on a partition? https://gist.github.com/shigeyas/2556087 I would be booting FreeBSD from a different partition so I'd like to know if I can run this from script from that partitiion. It isn't...

FreeBSD 15 have the following version of OpenSSL in the base: OpenSSL 3.5.4 30 Sep 2025 (Library: OpenSSL 3.5.4 30 Sep 2025)

Most of times its good to have a "homogeneuous sytem" No idea , which version base is. Can you find out ?

I ordered some software from Belgium, hasn't arrived yet.

Do I enter all this literally? Presumably I should add this to /dev/ada0p1/ventoy/ventoy_grub.cfg I don't see any reference to which partition should be checked.

If above works not. In theory, - Ventory will read grub.cfg - Look for disk having zpool named zpool : "search --no-floppy --set=root --label zroot" - Load freebsd kernel from this zpool on that disk : "kfreebsd /@/boot/zfsloader" - And tell...

This is invoking openssl35-3.5.5_1 install (make config) from ports. Do you think I should reinstall PHP with OpenSSL from ports instead of using the one in base?
