    Unknown member reacted to doul's post in the thread Linux is invading my FreeBSD… 😖 with Like Like.
    Ok, my question was not if it's technically possible, by following dependencies. My question is when software architecture fail and fall into too much interdependence ? *BSDs are surely the last bastions of quality, intellectual rigor and...

    Thx fahrenheit I will try to do that. I did not use the controller on FreeBSD, for that matter I only used it for a brief time few years ago. Trying to see whether the snr on it is actually decent enough for playback.

    It is xorg-server that depends on mesa-dri, not xorg-minimal.

    Zare, did that controller previously worked on FreeBSD? Have you tried booting a linux livecd starting audio and check dmesg to see if there is any information about device quirks or similar?

    Same as you are not worried about a single raindrop fall into your window may wet your carpet. But having the roof hatch open while a thunderstorm is another beast. It's not only always all about quality ("water is wet"), but also quantity makes...

    If you want to build a nuke or two it is more straightforward to directly look up the documents that Klaus Fuchs gave the Soviet Union. At least those are proven to work.

    Absolutely, /rescue can be a lifesaver. Rarely needed it, but I'm always happy to know it's there, just in case.

    Might be easier to NFS mount it? It's what I did for many years, NFS mounted /usr/src and /usr/obj, built world on a "big" machine and installed it on a "small" machine. You must make sure the time is correct on both machines though, or you'll...

    In future I will run freebsd-version -ukr to check that how far the update has got. It's all part of a learning experience. At least I found out something useful about /rescue.

    But not ALL Nvidia. It seems it was one particular card or driver and only on 15-RELEASE at the earliest but, NOTE, I haven't followed the story.

    SirDice replied to the thread Solved Unable to boot.
    Looks like you got hit with this issue: https://www.freebsd.org/security/advisories/FreeBSD-EN-25:18.freebsd-update.asc You need at least 13.5-RELEASE-p5, 14.2-RELEASE-p7 or 14.3-RELEASE-p4 before you can make the jump to 15.0-RELEASE.
  • SirDice
    SirDice replied to the thread Who owns the code Claude wrote?.
    It depends. At least in the Netherlands. If you were tasked with writing the code, then it doesn't matter if you wrote that code in your spare time or not, it's still owned by the company.

    Shouldn't be any difference, except you don't have to copy everything and can use it immediately. So it should save a bit of time. Alternatively, you might want to have a look at building your own pkgbase packages. Same for building packages...
