MarsIt has been yeeeeaaaars since I tried <a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/FreeBSD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FreeBSD</a>. So... here we go 🙂 (just a small testserver, desktop still running linux)

TomAokiCurrently patches on Bug285139 / D49245 for updating <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/nvidia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#nvidia</a> GPU driver 570.124.04 on <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/FreeBSD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FreeBSD</a> cannot apply as graphics/drm-[515|61|66]-kmod, that their distfiles are required for corresponding graphics/nvidia-drm-[515|61|66]-kmod, are updated. As drm-510-kmod is not yet updated (not sure it's not needed or not), I'm pending to upload upated patches. And the reason of update (preparing for flip of debug.link_elf_leak_locals from 1 to 0) doesn't seem to affect x11/nvidia-driver and at least graphics/nvidia-drm-61-kmod on stable/14, amd64 that already has the tunable.

Felix Palmen :freebsd: :c64:Well, I really like <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/X11" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#X11</a> (<a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/Xorg" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Xorg</a>) ... and my son loves <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/PeppaPig" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PeppaPig</a>. Which gives me a stupid idea. I could write something called <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/Xchicken" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Xchicken</a>. Make some chicken lay some eggs with mouse clicks on some <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/XRender" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#XRender</a> surface.Rough roadmap: - Draw some chicken and eggs, probably as SVG? - Reuse code from <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/Xmoji" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Xmoji</a>, add special widget supporting some "layered canvas" - Implement game logic - Add sound? (Hm, gotta look into <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/OSS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#OSS</a> and maybe <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/sndio" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#sndio</a>, cause <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/FreeBSD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FreeBSD</a> ... <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/Linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Linux</a> weirdness maybe later) - ....?I'll probably never start though 🙈

Justine SmithiesWell my new Intel N100 16Gb ram, 250Gb NVME is now online running <a href="https://snac.smithies.me.uk?t=opnsense" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#OPNsense</a> . I didn't need to do any of the changes that Ben Tasker mentioned it just gave a full on 1GB PPPoE connection. Fingers crossed I have most things set up correctly ? I did notice a bug after updating though. Before I updated the system health graphs showed the correct date and times now it is showing me the 14th and 10PM UK time yet the systems is reporting the correct date and time plus time zone as I'm using NTP. Oh well no doubt it'll get fixed shortly. [ EDIT - The issue is resolved ] I just had to reset the RRD in the settings and wait just over a minute and now all the graphs under health are working as expected. 😄 Go to Reporting -> Settings Click "Reset RRD Data" Wait over 1 minute <a href="https://snac.smithies.me.uk?t=freebsd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FreeBSD</a> <a href="https://snac.smithies.me.uk?t=runbsd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#RunBSD</a>

Justine Smithies[ It's decided, OPNsense is currently installing over pfSense! ] So my Intel N100 quad core with 16Gb ram and a 256GB NVME drive and 4 x 2.5Gb ethernet ports has arrived with pfSense preinstalled but I'm thinking I'd be better off with <a href="https://snac.smithies.me.uk?t=opnsense" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#OPNsense</a> installed instead? Am I right as this is going to be my main router / firewall ? Feel free to comment and thank you.

mms :runbsd: + :emacs: :vim:What is the preferred way to switch audio outputs on <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/freebsd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#freebsd</a> without restarting audio application? I can change default device, but it won’t work on programs already running.I’d prefer not to push a different audio system but I will If it’s the best option.

Felix Palmen :freebsd: :c64:I helped my mother to find a replacement for her *very* old (and partially broken) notebook, and now I have a nice refurbished <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/Thinkpad" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Thinkpad</a> T15 (Gen1) sitting here on my couch. It's suddenly this great "shiny new toy feeling" again and I'd love to just keep that machine 😆🙈Anyways, she told me it should "work exactly as before", so I'll install <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/FreeBSD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FreeBSD</a> 14.2 on it soon. It came with <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/Windows" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Windows</a> 10 preinstalled and I just extracted the product key. Question: Is this all I need to be able to reinstall Windows later if ever needed?

mudalaThat was fun and satisfying BSD Sunday.I fixed a Lenovo T520 and setup <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/GhostBSD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GhostBSD</a> for a friend, so he can start right out of the Box ...and of course get's the BSD Virus §8-)Everything works nicely like it should. Sound had to be configured, because the volume was too silent.Found the solution@ <a href="https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/audio-volume-is-too-low.92830/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/audio-volume-is-too-low.92830/</a>So, mixer pcm=1.0 did the trick on my side too.Besides that, it just runs wonderful smooth with a old 256GB SSD and 8GB of RAM. This Notebook is so old and it runs superb! Once more I thought about how ressources are wasted these days.Made another friend happy to tinker with the FreeBSD world. I'm sure I can "assimilate" him hehe...Next project: I would like to use <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/FreeBSD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FreeBSD</a> with the "<a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/Herbstluft" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Herbstluft</a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/WM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#WM</a> Oh my, so much to do, so less time §8-)
