OpenBSD has better support for SDIO and also still supports old Baytrail graphics which is cool. They also have UrbanTerror available for download and install. Those are a few things they have that I wish we had on FreeBSD. But overall OpenBSD...

Questions about 'derivative FreeBSDs', like GhostBSD TrueNAS XigmaNAS OPNsense pfSense BSD Router Project NomadBSD helloSystem HardenedBSD should be asked on the forums and/or mailing lists for these specific products. See below for links. If...

To set computer time manually in FreeBSD is basically easy to do, set date as root with two digits every section Sections are year, month , day and minute. An another way is to use a script which makes it with graphical dialogs. If you give...

You said everything correctly, but I asked for arguments in favor of the FreeBSD AI-server. Well, for example, "soon we will be able to run AMD NPUs", when we rewrite xdna-driver for FreeBSD: https://github.com/amd/xdna-driver

I'm trying to understand your original post. It seems to say the following: You want to do AI calculations, using TensorFlow or PyTorch. The amount of AI calculations you want to do is small enough that it doesn't justify buying a whole GPU or...

Some advocacy is needed to use FreeBSD as an AI server system. I'm going to use FreeBSD as the base system for the AI server. Perhaps someone (from the Linux world) will have questions for me about this because of their inertia of thinking, and I...

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...

This should be scfb (x11-drivers/xf86-video-scfb) instead of VESA (x11-drivers/xf86-video-vesa) if OP is booting via UEFI instead of legacy BIOS. It would be exec dbus-launch --exit-with-x11 ck-launch-session mate-session for Mate DE (what I'm...

There is more than one way of trying to fix this, some will be better than others, only you can determine which is best for you. 1. Use pkg set or pkg lock to prevent a package from deleting another's dependency...

I have never tried running Steam on FreeBSD before but as it is a Linux application, the FreeBSD host would have to be properly setup beforehand to run Linux compatibility. I had a quick look to see if there was a FreeBSD package for Steam and I...

Admittedly, I have never been sure of the use-case of a Live USB. You could just install a normal OpenBSD on the USB disk and set the root r/o in the fstab. If you want to get fancy, then /tmp, /var/run, /dev could be mounted via mount_mfs(8)...

Wouldn't that conclude to a amd64 speciification bias? Kernel going down without the conditions to trigger a panic? The system gives up without a reason?

In ports is a new version of gitup which works. I built it and it works. I am back on gitup.

Tried it a few times. It improved a lot over the years. You still have to make sure you understand everything that ihe installer talks about at lab-level.. 😆 Biggest problem for me is time. Everything is different. It's a few large tech books...

You can start a new thread if you want. I hope there's enough to fill it though. It would take someone or a few making screenshots, and describing it enough to do that. Here is still good as a catchall for OpenBSD and its derivatives. You can...

Perhaps I was not clear. I mean that the OpenBSD community is generally very supportive *if* you do some of your own trouble shooting and follow suggestions. I find that to be also true of the FreeBSD community.

Of course. But only in the last two hundred years. When the romans conquered europe, the "germans" were still living on trees. The romans only got half of "germany". Some say it was because the "germans" heroically defended their homelands...

Ambient techno, from Basic channel's album BCD - Radiance II (1994) View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lgo9QCvc9B8&list=PL4009DC721DDDC6E1&index=5 This stuff sent me tripping back in those days, it still does :D

Yes please do; threads are not an limited resource, and it makes searching and finding the right topics easier.

It has a forever false position. The appearance and operation of applications doesn't need to be standardized for anything except commercial software that relies on image/brand. IBM seems to get it... What's the point of GTK3? Different button...

pf kernel module isn't loaded. There's no "process" or "service" called PF, /etc/rc.d/pf simply enables PF (which causes the module to load) and loads the ruleset from /etc/pf.conf (by default). That prevented access to the PF "device" (pf)...

J-Power metal ;)

We should be envious of AIX; it has had Gnome 2.4 for basically a decade. We were the mugs that updated to v3!

No, but you need to make a "connection" (for lack of a better description from your input device (often they show up as record channels) to your output device (often labeled as playback channels. How yo do that with a gui thing I don't know. If...

Why? Why don't people want to start a new thread, when no thread on the topic exists? I'm curious.

More, there's also *_SET_FORCE and *_UNSET_FORCE.

Of course not; they used theft (of data) and blackmail to get money. This is a criminal act in all legal jurisdictions (AFAICT). They should be arrested, prosecuted and given sentence.

1. Please write as clearly as possible. Use English punctuation and capitalization, and avoid abbreviating things. This helps to improve the clarity of messages and make problems easier to solve. 2. Use BBCode formatting tags. As with...

That's the whole point of a vlan. For example, I have one em1 "physical" ethernet interface with one single ethernet cable to my switch. Then run multiple VLANs over it, em1.10 is on VLAN 10, em1.20 is on VLAN 20, etc. You need a switch that's...

Copied the sticky to the General forum for slightly higher visibility. METIN-2 / METIN2 and other illegal software - don't ask for assistance on these forums. Threads will be closed, posters will be banned. Factfinding: The server files are...

Are you saying that works on FreeBSD 15.0? If so, I think I'll get one and try it.

As of today, FreeBSD Forums staff will actively close down (and eventually remove) topics that serve no other purpose than to complain that "FreeBSD is not (like) Linux" (or Windows, or MacOS, or any other operating system), or that "FreeBSD does...

They pop up from time to time: posters who want their threads or posts removed because they're done with a subject or the forums in general. There have been bitter disputes about the "ownership of posts". The content below was culled from...

Attackers won't be able to abuse your DHCP request. Unless they've completely infiltrated your ISP at every level. Not impossible (certainly not in this day and age), highly unlikely though. Bad actor working for your ISP is more likely, but I...

It shouldn't. More often than not the message is incorrectly interpreted. But there have been genuine issues in the past. freebsd-update updates the source code (if you have it installed). That file not only determines the version of the kernel...

Yup, in the original post. :)

Granted, how you use make.conf to set/unset port options isn't explained in that man page. You really have to read Mk/bsd.options.mk for that. The remarks in Mk/bsd.default-versions.mk are also quite informative...

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

Well, are you going to do it? :D

Me having very old cds in my collection. Must try it in virtualmachine. Requiring boot floppy. Did a check found "slackware cd 1995" :)

You're really struggling with understanding how and when the version of the kernel changes, don't you? P4 is an issue with freebsd-update, has nothing to do with the kernel. So only the userland is updated to p4, the kernel isn't updated...

Ok, this is a very stupid error. I didn't realise that pf isn't even running. Adding it to /etc/rc.conf and doing a service pf start did the trick. Sorry for even posting this.

I've always found and read that robots.txt doesn't stop anything cause few systems and surfers care to even look at it.

AlfredoLlaquet, you made a rather sweeping generalization, which, from what else I've seen of what you've written, made it sound as if you were looking for a disagreement.. I should have said "deliberately obtuse" rather than obtuse. It was meant...

Now although you didn't ask it, I tried to ping 192.168.8.5 from 192.168.8.1. In this case I do have some result on BOTH machines. [Edited] This is on VM host, 192.168.8.1: tcpdump: listening on igb1, link-type EN10MB (Ethernet), snapshot length...

Hi :) 1. The router is a basic non-programmable 8-port "home edition" router ppl use to create a small LAN on a single incoming NIC (gateway). No routing problems up to now. Now the sudo tcpdump -vnei igb1 vlan 10 output on the VM host...
