    It was for me with Intel UHD 630 :D (fastfetch; did pkg remove xorg, installed xlibre's server pkg, and xlibre's evdev for mouse; Xfce started no problem like nothing was different)

    I installed it and ran it with the default twm. But where's the project code? X11R6 and X.org already existed... The source code of the project itself without the dependencies. I think there's nothing and they only changed the former X11R6 file-...

    Has anyone posted the obligatory xkcd strip yet. If so, apologies. https://m.xkcd.com/1782/ I suspect the strip was drawn before 2018, when slack made it impossible to use with irssi. As mentioned above, for awhile, there was an irssi...

    xlibre has a number of developers working on it (more than most Wayland projects). One of them is stefan11111 who has in the past done some great work at cleaning up fundamental libraries (i.e gtk+2). Speaking of which, there is even more...

    For the sake of experiment, I also tried from my laptop with OpenBSD installed which I also connected as VLAN 10 through that router I have on that LAN. Same as VM guest -- OpenBSD set "tagged 10" host tap1 interface to VLAN 10 on its side. No...

    There's nothing about it to be bad because it's XFree86. Ever used it? The project doesn't contain anything.

    I never believe any politician's intention is good. For them, everything is just a means to secure their power or obtain more.

    This dude is promoting an XFree86 mod for the alt-right camp, pretending it competes with X.org but it barely contains anything. Spreading right wing bs is the only goal of the project. Xlibre isn't anything. Nothing is developed. Looking at...

    Now AlfredoLlaquet, you're being obtuse. Among other things, he's an anti-vaxxer which should make you wonder about his critical thinking skills. So, it might affect the quality of his software. It defintely makes me feel suspicious when he says...

    It's not a scam in the sense that you're getting ripped off. Enrico Weigelt, the maintainer, is just a total asshole with a weird worldview. I like ghosts.

    It is still very likely on point. There is almost zero chance that Slack will be around by 2051.

    In fairness, it was one person who posted a thread like let's all do this on distrowatch, and several people said, no that's a bad idea, not least because someone will mention it elsewhere and give <distro> a bad name.

    I have the idea it's an old X11R6 rip-off. The xlibre package itself contains only documents. It's xlibre-server and the basic I/O drivers. Apart from manpages and docs, I estimate there are 20 actually related files. Also searched for it on...

    Perhaps debate has more to offer than direct vote count. There could be a true or informational statement, or valid opinion from a minority of OS users, and vote count in favor of a highly popular OS doesn't make that less true.

    sidetone replied to the thread The Distrowatch BSD ranking.
    A percentage of ratings are genuine. There are trolls who artificially lower ratings of comments, and who inflate value of their os. It could also be for a particular flavor of Linux, which maybe some are helping for it to survive. Also, those...

    Neither. Its not a distribution but an entire OS. It holds all the cards and can't be pulled around by all the little projects that make it up. However, smaller distributions (like GhostBSD) can certainly be made from it.

    vm uses cu for this. Hit enter a couple of times, then ~^D or ~. ~^D or ~. Drop the connection and exit. Only the connection is dropped – the login session is not terminated. That's the correct key combination...

    Did that on a system without packages. It has 189 dependencies. The only difference I see instantly is the package naming. The Xorg process is just running. It seems to run on a legacy graphics driver wthout kms kernel module. It's too fast at...

    At least we know. Though, it was always based on activity from their site. They need a better metric though. While they don't do it on purpose, the metric used gives it some blame. I wouldn't do too much to artificially lift one OS, but perhaps...

    x11/xlibre It seems to pull in some bits and pieces from Xorg. I guess it hasn't been completely forked yet (all the bells and whistles), only some core components.

    Nothing was actually compromised. They managed to grab my session token (cookie) and used it to insert widgets through the forum's admin page. Those widgets have all been removed.

    Did anyone ever really separate it and make an independent display server? Is there a dependency list of programs? which Xorg components can be deleted after installing Xlibre?
  • SirDice
    Don't think that's possible with a single device. Although it could constantly switch frequencies, you're probably going to end up with gaps in the received NOAA picture. It can't listen on two (or more) different frequencies simultaneously...

    That happened a long time ago, you are stuck with the 340 version, regardless if you're on Xorg or XLibre.

    Could you have just accidentally hit a key combo, perhaps while trying to close a page or something? (though I don't know what combo would do that).
