Do not care

Hey guys, Firefox-esr opens a new instance of Transmission-qt for every torrent I open from the browser, instead of the running app. Any idea is welcome. I run FreeBSD amd64 13.1 with KDE.

In addition, the download speed drops to a few Kb/s when it reaches the limit specified in the prefs, and then increases erratically again. It's strange . 🤔

How do I boot one boot environment but use kernel from another boot environment?

I am testing for this bug report I posted

It seems to be known for Transmission 3.0, although I did not reproduce this effect on Debian Bullseye with the same version. https://forum.transmissionbt.com/search.php?keywords=instances https://github.com/transmission/transmission/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+instances

hello everybody. is ATI RADEON 9200 PRO (RV280) supported in FreeBSD 13.X ?

Have you checked the release notes hw compat list? Also, what year is it? I guess that with old gpus there's no problem at all

Let's keep it serious in this one (: Jokes are welcome at @freebsd_offtopics

Greetings! Is it possible to remove the suspend button from gnome menus?

i dont want a button for a function that doesnt work

Hi, Favorite apps in Plasma Menu are not added until the next login. You too? Edit: I still have to relogin after this: https://www.dedoimedo.com/computers/plasma-menu-update.html No kbuildsycoca5 errors and restore menu from config. Also, some apps reappear as Firefox with a white icon. Fixed in 5.24.5, the version I run. I removed from ~/.local/share/applications/userapp-Firefox-xxxxxx.desktop and it reappears. Edit: The Firefox icon is added when it asks me if it wants to be the default browser randomly. Plasma prefs already has it checked. 👉 about:config then switching browser.shell.checkDefaultBrowser to false. https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=385814

hi Brothers can someone suggest me or share an article or experience on FreeBSD Jail how i can replicate it to secondary site including all of its containers running on top of it.

dd if= of= ?

dd if= of= ?

dd if=<image>.iso/img of=/dev/<usb> bs=1M conv=sync status=progress

or just use gnome disk to make bootable usb with gui

Bloat

You will need to provide a lot more details on your setup for anyone to help (that's probably why no one has responded to you until now). How were the jails created (iocage, bastille, etc.)? UFS or ZFS? When you say "jail" I'm assuming you are talking about the physical host. That's not a jail, the containers are the jails. Are you trying to migrate jails from one host to another?

scp, rsync, blah blah

ZFS + bastille

assuming the new host has been configured and bootstrapped with the same version(s), you're halfway there. bastille export ..., scp the exports found in bastille/backups/ to the other host, bastille import ...

hi Jeff, yes customer has deployed FreeBSD Jail on Physical servers, customer is using bastille and Ansible both to deploy the containers automatic. I have no experience in this FreeBSD Jail, where my task is to move this entire setup from old DC to New DC on top of VMware 7.0

bastille documentation is very good, so start there. there's also a friendly, helpful telegram channel dedicated to it, "BastilleBSD". I've not touched VMware for a long, long time, so can't help much there.

you should have no probs with that, are they going p2v? or v2v?

vmware makes me puke

vmware makes me puke

how so ? btw: vmware is at 15.0

it is a company that breaks the GPL, the performance is worse than other hypervisors, the quality of their virtio implementation until version 7 was exceptionally bad, automation possibilities are a joke

how so ? btw: vmware is at 15.0

workstation is, esx and vsphere are not, only 7

not talking about VMware workstation, but talking about the VMware vSphere and vCenter (Enterprise edition)

Hi Aaron it will be P2V and we have we have some v2v as well.

FreeBSD Jail and BestilleBSD both are different? i thought it is part of FreeBSD Jail to deploy automatic containers. 😳

BastilleBSD is a separate project

ok

Backup and restore the FreeBSD Jail and BestilleBSD (Bare metal backup and restore) will be helpful or is there any way that i can install one on another site and pair both to allow sync?

Hello! When logging out of gnome freebsd freezes to a blinking cursor screen, without being able to switch to tty. Does anyone know of a fix?

I am using 13.1-release

@gocmen_gizani inside the /boot/loader.conf file you'll need a couple of lines similar to if_urtwn_load="YES" legal.realtek.license_ack=1 check the man page you shared previously to see if the module is named the same. Then read the handbook quick start guide to setup the network (32.3.2) https://docs.freebsd.org/en/books/handbook/advanced-networking/#network-wireless

Standard migration best practices should apply. Typical bottlenecks in syncing would include bandwidth and disk i/o. You initially mentioned "migration", which is way easier. You haven't said what you're trying to accomplish. Instead of backing up the bare metal source host (I think you are calling that a "jail", but that's not a jail; the containers are the jails), just create a reasonably similar VM on the destination side.

Hi everyone, probably a silly question. I am modeling something with a UML activity diagram. Among the actors, there is one process sending a POSIX signal to another process via the kill() POSIX function. Now, is kill() blocking/synchronous or not?

hi Jeff yes u are right, Jails are the container running on top of FreeBSD, i am calling complete server (bare metal server) as a FreeBSD Jail. I want to do P2V this from physical to VMware. existing DC need to relocate to another DC but cant move physical servers due to data protection law. can you tell me what can be the standard process for this FreeBSD (with Jail container) servers to migrate?

copy and paste via samba shouldn't be to difficult

I am aware that this is not a clear answer, but this note would imply to me that kill() is a bit synchronous in that you wait until the signal has been delivered, and in paart async as you do not wait for your target to handle the signal. I am surprised that i cannot find a clear answer to that quickly. If this is not written in the manpages, there must be some basic knowledge about signals and syscalls which would let you conclude the right answer. But where?

I don't know where, but thank you for your answer, it is actually clear enough

rsync can be your friend

oh, I'm responding to the scroll, my bad...

hey the sound in freebsd is stuttering is that because i running in vbox?

right?

right?

You can add a rule to xorg to try an avoid tearing

how?

how?

At /usr/local/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/ Create a config file for your gpu. Mine is an AMD: 20-amdgpu.conf and the content is Section "Device" Identifier "AMD" Driver "amdgpu" Option "DRI" "3" Option "TearFree" "true" EndSection

The tearfree option is the one you are looking for

Still trying to make something

And what have you tried? I need a clue by watching your config files otherwise I'm clueless (:

wait that will fix stutter sound?

maybe vbox is the problem right?

Could be. I use FreeBSD as a daily driver and it doesn't do it

I can just recommend getting rid of virtualbox and use bhyve instead

I added if_urtwn_load="YES" legal.realtek.license_ack=1 to /boot/loader.conf After i added wlans_rtwn0="wlan0" ifconfig_wlan0="WPA DHCP" to /etc/rc.conf And after I configured wpa with wpa_passphrase <wifi name> <wifi password> > /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf After I rebooted the computer, dhclient said no carrier and when i looked to ifconfig wlan0 was not connected

After i my USB adapter worked good in NetBSD and OpenBSD

I'll take a look when I get out work

Edit: Turns out i should read more thoroughly. My device is not on the list of officially supported devices. if yours is, my input is not relevant to you. Tp-Link ln101 or something like that i believe What adapter is it? I wasted quite some time with some realtek devices that are not supported by freebsd. The oem Wifi Device of the macbook air, and a dongle i bought naively in the hopes that a "Schüttgut"-Type generic Adapter would have Drivers. This one does sometimes work as expected, but after a little time it just disconnects from the usb and wont reconnect.

RAM? Pay attention on resource while running virtual box. Could be caused by low resource.

Can someone take a look at this bug report I filed about WiFi issue in 13.1? It's been days and still no clue what's the problem: [WiFi stops working after upgrade from 13.0 to 13.1, AR9285] https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=264238

When network access itself is the problem, it's really PIA to just keep updating information in the bug report, I have to test, reboot to 13.0, post updates and reboot again to 13.1 to do more tests.

Guys and gals, I need a filesystem for external hdd/usb stick that is a) encrypted b) accessible in both FreeBSD and Linux The obvious option is openzfs, any other suggestion?

for smaller usb sticks I considered veracrypt

Fat or ext4

Use fuse to mount ext4

i have done tests with encrypted zfs using linux and FreeBSD 13.0 and after a while had issues rendering files unreadable

I suggest using truecrypt/veracrypt underneath an unencrypted zfs
