Assuming the boot menu is displayed, "3. Escape to loader prompt" and check "currdev" (enter show currdev). It should look like: currdev=zfs:zroot/ROOT/default:.

This does not appear to be supported. makewhatis has no option for full manual page indexing.

This specific VirtualBox bug, like the previous one, appears to have been fixed upstream in a 7.2.9 test build, based on user testing: https://github.com/VirtualBox/virtualbox/issues/645#issuecomment-4444394049 Until a stable version with the...

this is a thread I'm also interested in, thanks for opening the discussion. for me the SDR support in FreeBSD was not great. I have two radio devices (HackRF one and SDRplay RSPdx) and been using them with urh, gnuradio and gqrx with great...

I'm interested in a list of SDR's which are supported by FreeBSD. For example, "rtl-sdr." I have no experience with them but I will have if I can find one which works well. :) Are you a SDR user? If so, please say hello!

I have one of these but never managed to get it working and would be very interested in doing so.

Can anyone recommend a 5G USB dongle that is known to work well under FreeBSD?

I'm still working through it, but Pivpn is one option if OP is willing to use extra-hardware. It made connecting my machine to the pi rather simple. It spits out a fully usable wireguard configuration and I gave it a no-ip address as the address...

What's the usual cause when a watercooled PC can't reach full load anymore? It's a i9 13900K. Please let it not be CPU circuitry decay...

Move the goalposts. If the entire platform claims to be static hardware, what runs on it is the OS. Good in-between excuse is firmware.Smartphones are close to this. The entire display content is software but glued on the system so that it's like...

Original article here. Consider this when replying. The third release candidate build for the FreeBSD 15.1 release cycle is now available. ISO images for the amd64, armv7, aarch64, powerpc64, powerpc64le, and riscv64 architectures are FreeBSD...

The question was not whether or not RDNA4 is full supported on 6.12 or even whether or not it should work (which should be true even for the newish 9070 GRE since AMD switched to IP block discovery and as long as the firmware is loaded and the...

matt_k / mnd999 would you be interested in trying the live media of Alma Linux 10.2 ( https://repo.almalinux.org/almalinux/10/live/x86_64/ , take your pick of KDE/Gnome ) and check if your card boots on Linux 6.12 with the necessary firmware...

I ran into adb/fastboot being PATH'd differently or something depending on the Linux distro (one had fastboot but it's not adb's fastboot), so I specified the path for adb/fastboot on FreeBSD (worked fine; last post on that thread) I did it...

What would Terry A. Davis do? A CIA thread wouldn't be complete without him.

The maintainer has been changed to python@ by portmgr@. https://cgit.freebsd.org/ports/commit/?id=07509540073daca9c76fb1be0cec6cbda4956219

I know this is an older comment, but I just noticed this thread and well... got curious. No offense, but I strongly disagree; it would become a huge hassle. Thing is... there's a lot going on within the Python source base and if you then check...

There must be some other adb on my system. I have just installled android-tools and have version 35.0.2 but can't figure out how to connect. Should I just connect a USB cable between my phone and computer and expect to see something or is some...

Just heard about an open-source World of Warcraft client: https://github.com/Kelsidavis/wowee A pre-build worked easy on Linux with 2 lib.so added. I had a real client and server already so extracting data was quick, and connecting just-worked...

I have never had any success using adb. This is a post of mine from about a year ago. Maybe there has been an update since. I just noticed that when I ran man adb I get something mentioning Apple Desktop Bus rather than Android Debug Bridge.

Heads up: version 8895 of llama.cpp has been committed to ports. This changes the location where llama.cpp stores models automatically downloaded from huggingface (as in post #1 here). Old cache: ~/.cache/llama.cpp/ New cache...

Hello All, I have been working on an "IPFW Primer" document for a while. The latest version of the IPFW Primer (2025-01-13T17:49-05:00) is at https://www.jimby.name/techbits/recent/folder/ipfw-primer_en.pdf This is essentially complete for...

I'm trying to run a VM with FreeBSD 15.0-RELEASE as guest and FreeBSD 15.1-STABLE as host. I'm using sysutils/vm-bhyve. Here's my config for the FreeBSD guest VM: loader="bhyveload" cpu=2 memory=4G network0_type="virtio-net"...

The issue has reappeared in VirtualBox 7.2.8. I’ve submitted a new report to the FreeBSD Bugzilla. 295894

Ya my favorite of Dire Straights was always: (Link Wikipedia): Sultans of Swing ZZ TOP? (Link Wikipedia): (Link Wikipedia): TV Dinners ZZ TOP (Link Wikipedia): Cheap sunglasses is pretty good too.

So presumably it thinks booting has never completed, so it's blocking somewhere in the boot process. I wonder if something has got inadvertently deleted and it's trying to run something that isn't there. Em... filesystem corruption? This link...

In that case, here is the info you requested.

Yes. That is what I tell those I have to walk through their use of new radio equipment: RTFM. I have printed all 42 pages of that. Thanks. Ken Gordon

Yes. I (finally) did that. Thanks. Ken Gordon

I suspect we still have a failure to communicate. The "bad minute" is an error message from cron, when it is reading a crontab and expects a time specification (which starts with a minute spec -- a number). Your script above is a shell script...

That is an issue of fwget. Maybe I forgot to mention my bug ticket 295802. :cool:

Very little is known about how Apple schedules P and E cores, and not much more for Windows 11. Win11 interacts with Intel's thread director, whatever that thing is doing exactly. As far as I can tell it reports about a thread's use of "special"...

How did you arrive at those odd numbers for P-cores? The way to put this into a script is: #! /bin/sh cpuset -l 0,1,10-13,22,23 -s 1 "$@" Last I checked Intel P-cores were not getting the correct speed under FreeBSD. When you run a benchmark...

Well, in addtion to the error Maturin found, I found several others which I had to correct. I tested the cron job several times before I got them all. Now we will see if I edited the crontab correctly. I did crontab -e and added one line. Now...

I'm a bit confused about that line, since the syntax shall be if [ condition ] ; then expressions fi, and not if condition; then expressions fi[, right?

So, "conditions" should be within square brackets? Like this: if [grep -q "Warning" $LOGFILE]; then mail (etc) .? Ken Gordon

You need to specify cron jobs in crontab format. See /etc/crontab for an example.

Agreed. If Dan puts a rainbow on his site, let him. Should he remove it one day, let him. Why is this even a thing? Personally I, and we collectively, have a lot better things to worry about than web site decorations.

Well, we all learn by making mistakes, everyone here probably has an embarrassing story. I think that when 15.1-RELEASE is out, it's probably going to be that simple.

No success with this minimal configuration. The X Server will terminate immediately after startup

Lol, it's even more complicated than he thought and far more complicated than needed. There are easiest ways to upgrade without risk with pkgbase. But, it's better to wait for official upgrade instructions. I think that soon or late, there will...
