Nothing's changed in about 4 months. Define 'lately' dice@fbsd15:~ % lsblk DEVICE MAJ:MIN SIZE TYPE LABEL MOUNT ada0 0:91 50G GPT - - ada0p1...

vermaden there's something wrong with lsblk lately. Firstly, it started demanding root credentials to display disk sizes. Secondly, it no longer displays partition sizes, it just prints the entire device size per each partition. (if the device...

Yes! If someone tells me that something is necessary, but cannot explain what that something is and justify why it is necessary, I reject it. I do not buy it, be it something edible from the supermarket or a new rc system for FreeBSD...

Honestly, and with all the respect, hruodr is right. You'd better avoid "we" because it implies your point is shared by everyone. You know, it's false. "I" is more suited in all cases.

Explain why please. How much faster does it make boot?

Because it is being included everywhere.

Why should it be included?

package Make a binary package for the port. The port will be installed if it has not already been. The package is a .pkg file that you can use to install the port on other...

You are trying to run before you can walk. Go to the simplest possible example and get that to work. As user root, use crontab -e to edit the cron table, or even crontab -eu root to make sure it's the root crontab. Make a single line cron job*...

Ah, I wonder if that's where things are going astray - I'm not sure if that's the right place to do things? crontab -e seems to be more the way to do things, but I'm not sure. But even if I edit /etc/crontab (and for this way of doing things...

This in your code: if grep -q "Warning:""$LOGFILE"; then is missing a space between the two adjoining double quotes (""). Try adding a space in between (more than one space is also OK): if grep -q "Warning:" "$LOGFILE"; then Not adding a...

I build from source by cloning github repo for every component of Matrix/Element (server side only). So far I had one incident where the Synapse failed to start due to an issue on their side, but was sorted quickly. I highly recommend this path...

What's the hardware? FreeBSD booted from USB doesn't just import it?

Greetings all, I have a movie/music server running on OmniOS, which was a logical step as I used Sun's Solaris while working for BigCompany (tm). Over the years I have been using FreeBSD more, so I would like to move the pool. There does not...

It was claude code, yes. ETA: actually it was copilot, sorry.

Do you have the pkg output?

This was an unrelated thing; a change was made to enable the server-side bits for `pkg rwhich`, but it was discovered to have a bug that wasn't obvious in testing due to the difference in orders of magnitude between testing and pkg.f.o. It has...

well under xlibre claude from ports does not hang. seems to be a bug with drm/wayland.

I use textproc/ugrep, mostly for greping through man pages and FreeBSD source code. It's very fast and option rich. A comparison in time (slowest to fastest) and printed content. % \time -h zgrep with /usr/share/man/man*/* [cut]...

Why are you so negative? What is meant by "we" is FreeBSD project, the OS needs to have a parallel service framework if it wants to keep being competitive in other than server areas. "The people" is indeed a general audience using FreeBSD. So...

nvm after using it some time, it froze too. currently investigating.

For me it just works.

Well at least cd /usr/ports/misc/claude-code && make find-new-version looks promising.

Wouldn't it be easier to adjust misc/claude-code's Makefile in order to obtain the latest version?

you might need to add your regular user to the video group.

xargs is better than exec because the number of spawned children is (sometimes a lot) less and you can control this with xargs -n

? Pattern occurs at most once per line: grep --count 'pattern' ./sample_file Pattern can occur multiple times per line: ? grep --only-matching 'pattern' ./sample_file | wc -l If you want to “query” the selected lines, it sounds like the file is...

Is was. I just deleted the earlier one. It picked up an incorrect link from the RSS feed. The feed got corrected which cause this second post to trigger. Keeping this one, the other had the wrong link in it. Addendum, it wasn't so much the link...

Is the ping target host configured to drop ping? What happens if you ping www.google.com?

That's good. Only minor discrepancy I might see, why wlan1? Not wlan0? Is that intentional? There's at least some network connectivity. It managed to resolve the zeman hostname to an IP address. And you can't do that if there's no network...

You really haven't been on the internet for very long have you?

Original article here. Consider this when replying. The ports repository has been frozen to revert a very large commit. There is no concern that the tree has been compromised. More information about the freeze can be found on the 2026 Ports...

It's human beings being human. I've done this before. Even with non-computer related things. Totally understandable but also totally unforgivable. This can contribute to the medical condition called flat forehead syndrome. Which reminds me, I...

Somebody did a git add -A against a directory with a file they probably forgot to remove before committing and pushing. git show --name-status would have been a good pre-push check. Or git status prior to commit. Haste makes waste.

emacs.core is also mentioned in the 30th-anniversary. https://freebsdfoundation.org/our-work/journal/browser-based-edition/freebsd-30th-anniversary-special-edition/

I remember that time when a ports committer made a random import with lots of build artifacts including a work/ directory - and an emacs *.core file :)

Somebody fatfingered something. This also caused the inability to `pkg update` on releases this week.

Matrix has recently changed to their inhouse-built "Element Call" feature, so Jitsi isn't required anymore. It is/was a PITA to set it up anyways. Setting up element call is another challenge in and of itself, and pkg synapse itself is way...

They should send in the Alert-5 fighters and wipe out all the AI data centers. It is an threat to all mankind.. Destroy it now why you have a chance.

You seem to be missing my point. "Perfect" does NOT mean "feature rich". But when ports are allowed to install rc.d script (in separate place, not in /etc/rc.d/ but /usr/local/etc/rc.d/) at the first time (if I recall correctly, it was almost at...

Don't make it a big deal. Nothing came crashing down. Crackers aren't going to break into your server. You aren't even going to notice the problem beyond the freeze or this notice. It's a temporary fat finger that will be fixed by tomorrow or so.

You cross-posted it to freebsd-ports. Cross-posting itself is considered bad etiquette. It's not a port, it's not even an attempt at creating a port and it's not an issue with an existing port. So it has zero place on freebsd-ports. And the...

Yes.

Therefore this is not a tunable parameter, and it has to be recompiled?
