Ok my homelab server Beastie is running on 14.3-p6 just like all of my Bastille jails. I think I&#x27;m going to attempt to upgrade Beastie first to 15.0 and see how I get on.

Since <a href="/tags/netbsd/" rel="tag">#NetBSD</a> comes with a nicely configured <a href="/tags/ctwm/" rel="tag">#CTWM</a>.

Think it is time to give the <a href="/tags/iwlwifi/" rel="tag">#iwlwifi</a> driver a try on <a href="/tags/freebsd/" rel="tag">#FreeBSD</a> 15.0 for my Intel 8260 wireless card. So far so good, might get some speed gain compared with <a href="/tags/iwm/" rel="tag">#iwm</a> driver but I need to run a few days to make a conclusion.

So as you know I&#x27;m looking at repurposing an old Dell Optiplex 3080 tower as an <a href="/tags/openbsd/" rel="tag">#OpenBSD</a> server. It&#x27;s already got 32GB ram and a 1Tb NVME drive. I was thinking about adding some spinning rust for the data drive but I&#x27;m unsure whether to just add one hard drive as I&#x27;ll be doing regular backups to NAS anyway. Or should I spend more purchasing two of the same drives for my usual RAID 1 setup like I did with my <a href="/tags/freebsd/" rel="tag">#FreeBSD</a> server Beastie ?<br>Was looking at ways saving some £££ but maybe it&#x27;s not a good idea ? It would eventually be hosting the following if possible. Snac instance, static website, git with cgit, Radicale, Syncthing and maybe a few more much much later.<br><a href="/tags/homelab/" rel="tag">#Homelab</a><br>

<p>Does anyone manage to use the <a href="/tags/keyboard/" rel="tag">#keyboard</a> media controls in <a href="/tags/freebsd/" rel="tag">#FreeBSD</a> <a href="/tags/xorg/" rel="tag">#Xorg</a>? I have a DasKeyboard with a volume jog that works out of the box on <a href="/tags/openbsd/" rel="tag">#OpenBSD</a>. </p><p>The events seems to be working using xev tester. It regognizes the RaiseVolume and LowerVolume events. </p><p>Not sure where to actually start looking for a solution. </p><p><a href="/tags/runbsd/" rel="tag">#RunBSD</a></p>

<p>Adventures in <a href="/tags/freebsd/" rel="tag">#FreeBSD</a>:</p><p>Install FreeBSD<br>GELI, I don&#x27;t know who you are or what you mean, but you&#x27;re lovely<br>How do you scroll up in the console???<br>Mistyped username when setting it up. Oops.<br>usermod. Where&#x27;s usermod??? pw usermod????? Umm, OKAY!?<br>Changed group name, changed user name, changed home dir<br>Oh, it didn&#x27;t actually move the home dir<br>No problems, cd /home; mv oldname newname<br>WHAT DO YOU MEAN, YOU CAN&#x27;T MV IT<br>Fine, mkdir /home/newname<br>NO?? WHAT.<br>Fine, pw usermod yadda yadda make new homedir<br>Homedir is created, but blank.<br>cd /home/oldname; mv -n * ../newname<br>Why is this taking so long<br>HOLY CRAP ARE YOU ACTUALLY COPYING ALL THOSE FILES?!? WHY?!?!?<br>zfs, I love and respect you. I just don&#x27;t understand you. X&#x27;D<br>Oh, I have to install drm video drivers and enable them to get a GUI, even for Wayland. Of course. Totally normal FreeBSD things.<br>At least the handbook kicks butt, and is mostly accurate, compared to &quot;we wrote this for Linux to weeks ago and it&#x27;s already out of date. Oh, and even when it was new, it only applied to 15% of all distros&quot;</p>
