ifconfig will only scan, if i'm correct not assign an IP-address. wpa_cli will read wpa_supplicant and try to assign an IP-address to your wireless device & set routes.

GitHub's website is hard to find a binary; is there one available to try now for Bun? https://github.com/oven-sh/bun/pull/29676

Hi folks, I am running FreeBSD 15.0. I had to migrate the installation to a new harddrive after the old one was beginning to fail. At the same time, I switched from an UFS based installation to one based onzroot. Most programs runs just fine...

Mounting the server's root fs, especially mounting it read/write. What could possibly go wrong with that?!

Oh really?!

GGML has the ability to detect your CPU at runtime and fallback from whatever it doesn't support. I've patched the ports file to make use of it here...

That's not true. One can use /etc/exports to define the shares by directory path (e.g. /home/GRUPPE -network 192.168.2.0/24 -alldirs). If defined in this manner, the file system is unimportend. It can be UFS standart directories, ZFS datasets...

Your link of opendoas said: "Description: This is a port of OpenDoas, which in itself is a port of OpenBSD's doas forLinux and MacOS. OpenDoas unlike OpenBSD's doas supports persist on FreeBSD(and Linux + MacOS)."

Unfortunately persistence of opendoas is not like-for-like with persistence of doas on OpenBSD. To quote Ted Unangst, original creator of doas: https://web.archive.org/web/20250812140828/https://flak.tedunangst.com/post/doas-mastery This is why...

If the same data is NFS shared, no seperate dataset (definitively no seperate pool) is necessary for the two protocols. To mount a share with the NFSv4 protocol is to define a NFSv4 tree root and use the "nfsv4" mount option as shown in the...

balanga and Stefan2, the following example is a simple NFSv3 and NFSv4 ZFS "sharenfs" configuration: /etc/rc.conf nfs_server_enable="YES" nfsv4_server_enable="YES" /etc/exports # Assuming /home/GRUPPE is the mount point: V4: /home/GRUPPE...

The red highlighted "mountd" and "rpcbind" services are unnecessary, those services are started automatically (NFSv4 even doesn't require "rpcbind"). Also, all the other red highlighted are unnecessary. The blue highlighted may or may not be set...

Does that mean that any Linux flavour should be able to support UFS, at least in RO?

Seemingly mounted fine 4 days ago (booted oS TW LiveUSB to backup 15.1); I didn't try write, but it mounted after modprobe ufs (iirc ufs is default blacklisted)

Apparently OpenSuse provides some limited support for UFS. Has anyone tried it and how well does it work?

If I want two shares, one for nfs3 and the other for nfs4 do I need to create two pools?

I'm not an expert but I remember I read several articles about exporting nfs shares with zfs before it worked. This is how it works in my local network: The name of my zpool is rpool I want to export the directory /home/GRUPPE with all...

I commented out kernel code. We now have AT style keyboard hard reset and button hard shutdown. Does this count as kernel developing? 😆 Also want to add custom sysctl vars but it's complicated...

The I would raise with poudriere on GitHub.

I read that but it's as clear as mud.

Download the files manually and extract them, measure time.

I'm not familiar with what ZFS sharenfs does or how to invoke it. I just found https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/zfs-set-sharenfs-multiple-hosts.94811/

Doesn't opendoas do persistance? I think it does on Linux. (and I don't know its disadvantages).

Just an aside, as this is about AI---I have found that it makes me lazy at times. This weekend, I had two small issues, and rather than solving them, I put them to ChatGPT which solved them right away. So, I'm trying to avoid using it, as it's...

I don't use it, but I wonder if it's similar to the Linux iwd, (that's a daemon, but it includes iwctl which can be useful). https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Iwd

bsdhh (Hamburg) is very much active. Not sure why it doesn't show up in the list. www.bsdhh.org We lost out 30 year restaurant lately, though.

You mean Diablo + Hellfire. https://www.gog.com/dreamlist/game/diablo-ii

So just v k j w? And that means that gpart show da0 will suddenly work?

Even on a powerful machine it takes some time. How long did you wait?

wpi_cli allows you to dynamically connect to the wpa_supplicant socket and control it dynamically. I.e so you don't need to terminate and restart the wpa_supplicant daemon if you want to change to a different access point. It also can modify and...

wpa_cli allows you to connect to a password protected wifi network from a cli (command line interface, aka terminal). It's very useful because it outputs a lot of useful information about wpa authentication and you can choose to output a lot of...

k, j, w ?

I was interested in seeing how this played out (from bug report to release) - the patch just missed PHP 8.4.20, but looks like it is landing in 8.4.21: https://news-web.php.net/php.internals/130687 I downloaded the RC1 files and in the NEWS file...

Yeah I saw that, good news 👍 😊

When booting Debian, it shows all my partitions. Apparently some tool call gdisk can identify problems and correct them. And I've just discovered that it is available on FreeBSD. It is able to get info from /dev/da0 so I may be able to...

Works just fine. I have made a clumsy attempt to submit the patches to Bugzilla. I will mark this thread as solved with this summary: To make Roland UA33 (Tri-Capture) work on 15-RELEASE add the following changes and rebuild/install kernel...

It's not. It's a call for admins, and we had a talk about that before.

Please send DM for details.

It's a native partition on the same disk and Virtualbox wants r/w on the whole disk? I would try to hide the volume identity so Virtualbox thinks it's a different device. Qemu would be no problem but it's too slow for serious GUI use.

The look of themed program windows is somewhat boring. I would consider the porn factor of a linux distribution that can download its source and recompile itself from only readable files like the BSD's. Do they even exist besides LFS?

Why don't they find 10K problems and bugs in 1 week? That not being the case questions the additional value of AI at finding weaknesses in public software, as well as its overall capability since it apparently doesn't work without human process...

Alain De Vos Well then you should post that stuff on Linux forums.
