That's been my experience and it doesn't seem to matter much whether it's Linux, Windows or FreeBSD, none of them seem super fast with regular thumbdrives, especially with smaller files. I have noticed that the M.2 enclosure option is extremely...

Don't do thumb drives, especially not when you care about speed. Get a M.2 to USB enclosure and a matching M.2 drive,

AlfredoLlaquet, I understand, I think, your point, but keep in mind that many people run FreeBSD servers that many people depend upon, and doing a reboot could literally inconvenience thousands of users. So, it's not just a first world problem in...

Wayland and "best" usually don't go together for me.

An evergreen trick is writing the title after the post, not before.

This is of course a bug in FreeBSD.

point is...you can take the quick heavyweight fix and have your problem solved in a short time, or continue to look for the magic bullet and spend far more resources with no payoff. I understand the value of understanding the cause of the...

I plan to mess with urxvtd/urxvtc inside tabbed Real Soon Now.

Speaking as a narcissist, I would have to say that I *like* the fact that effort is going into improving wireless. I have a Thinkpad T495 with a card that gets slow speeds on FreeBSD. (Actually, last time I checked, so did the USBs that were...

And I've watched hundreds of millions of dollars wasted by people who abused data and inference to agree with their confirmation bias. If there's one thing AI does well is confirm your biases.

What I have in hand and worked as DAC (as a DAP is included) on FreeBSD at least the last time I've tested are: CHORD Mojo SOUND GEAR PAV-HADSD FiiO Q3(2021) FiiO M11 (DAP, USB DAC mode) FiiO E7 Note that I'm mostly using CHORD Mojo now, but...

Aune mini USB DAC MK2 SE This is a combination USB DAC and headphone amplifier; an ideal add-on for something like a mini-pc or a laptop. I tested it with USB using the X220 and Sennheiser HD650, it works fine with Freebsd 14.4 Release, using...

Since a month or 6, my main PC needs a heavy aquarium stone placed above the front USB ports to avoid extremely annoying case resonance of the coolant engine. I tried a lot but I can't fix it. The stone must stay forever.

I'm running an Ivy Bridge i7. It doesn't have a fan on it but I have a multi-fin cooling tower on it. I pulled the nvidia card for reasons I said elsewhere. iirc, this is the same temperature it was running the last time I checked who knows how...

If only it was command line and you could enter the currencies you were interested in. I'll see what lynx produces.

iSCSI allows you to share physical storage but only *one* client (initiator) can access a given storage volume (LUN) while NFS allows more than one client to access the same file so even if you use an iSCSI device for NFS storage you still have...

The long term trend of reducing 'compute' costs was primarily fueled by Moore's law which ceased to be valid. Company such as Anthropic runs (at minimum) two types of server farms, one for runtime and other for training. And they don't run them...

I don't know that answer. I used the default for my zpool (16K) for my W11 VM. NTFS uses a default block size of 4K but can go as high a 2 M. I suppose if you want better performance you should increase the block size. If you want to reduce the...

Listening to Lofi Girl radio on the X220, with an Aune 'mini usb dac V2 SE' and Sennheiser HD6XX. :-) FreeBSD 14.4-RELEASE, running windowmaker desktop. The box under the DAC is a regulated linear PSU. Sounds very nice just using pcm and OSS...

FreeBSD Friends, I have a Supermicro X10SLL-F with a QLogic QLE2694 on FreeBSD 15.0-RELEASE-p7. The HBA is on firmware 9.15.1 (both fw_version_run and fw_version_flash). This host is a target presenting LUs to several initiators (all running...

I think that's a workaround/BandAid rather than resolving the issue as such. You are just telling it (I think, not sure) to be less strict with checking SSL certificates. So good that it is working for you, but it might have been achieved by...

Original article here. Consider this when replying. FreeBSD, The FreeBSD Foundation, and The FreeBSD Forums are not associated with the content of this article.

Just to cover this particular base: this sub-forum really only handles feedback about the functionality of the forums. They are hosted apart from other FreeBSD services like BugZilla.

It all depends how long you drive it hard for, what the ambient temperature is, was the case specifically designed to keep that hardware cool, etc? The CPU fan cools the CPU. A case fan cools the case, but the case only needs cooling if heat's...

Read The Friendly Manual is a gentle reminder to self-educate first, before burdening those who have answered the question a thousand times previously to those wanting to be spoon fed instead of digging for themselves.

There are four fans inside my box. The bad one was driving me a little crazy so I unplugged it. I read how you can give it a drop of oil and maybe stop the noise rather than buying a new one. I'll try that one day soon but, for now, I thought I'd...

You are next.

When I used to install CAT scanners, we did one in New York. The union caught wind of us being there and insisted on letting one of their guys do the cabling. Senior installer Barry showed the electrician the gold pins of the cable and asked him...

Just came across:- curl rate.sx

Something I see too often nowadays is a title that's a statement but followed by a question mark. Like, "I want to install FreeBSD on my new laptop?" or "I just bought a house in this neighborhood?"

You can also try `umount -f /tmp`.

Or do fstat -f /tmp and kill all the processes using it. This of course is not a ZFS problem. This is not just a novice ZFS blunder. Mounting any other fs on top of /tmp would have also produced the same result. This is why we have /mnt...

Then perhaps with a lightweight terminal emulator, something like: tabbed -c st -f fixed -w But st needs configuration, the standard font and white over black is not nice.

Maybe there is some program that will provide a snapshot at any point in time where the output could be parsed...

The problem I have with tmux is all the remote logins. I don't want to open tmux on the local host, I have them on the remote one. But then you have sessions in an xterm group that you cannot switch between with tmux. Unless you use nested tmux...

I don't believe that debugability and security are opposite ends. If your userlevel program used a system call that had a problem then a highly descriptive error message would at best help security through obscurity.

it might add complexity to security. If all system components are made as transparent as possible, error messages may also reveal interesting system details to a ssh guest user. A construct for clear admin feedback on all layers must be well...

But is not better tmux that only runs a shells and not terminal emulators? For other programs has tabbed more sense.

Please start a new thread with your issue rather than hijacking an existing one. ;)

This is actually one of the things I don't like about UNIX. There is very limited ability to transport useful error messages from kernel to userland for a userland program to display. As a hack workaround, there is lots of basic error codes...

This rule should also apply to computer programs and scripts with text output. Llke "operation not permitted" and no further explanation while being physical root is equally lacking information. This leads to sloppyness and bad forum posts. 😆
