<p>I found an old Acer laptop running <a href="/tags/windows98/" rel="tag">#windows98</a> It has an external CD-ROM unit which doesn't work until drivers are loaded.

One thing that I always missed in my infrastructure at <span class="h-card"><a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/@BoxyBSD" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>BoxyBSD</span></a></span> when running with <a href="/tags/bhyve/" rel="tag">#bhyve</a> was a missing <a href="/tags/prometheus/" rel="tag">#Prometheus</a> exporter for metrics of the <a href="/tags/vms/" rel="tag">#VMs</a> (and <a href="/tags/jails/" rel="tag">#jails</a>) - agentless of course...

Ah-ha! Just discovered a better way of listing only the packages that I installed on <a href="/tags/freebsd/" rel="tag">#FreeBSD</a> . Most folk tell you to use pkg info -q -a which just gives you a list of everything installed. I wanted just what I installed after the initial FreeBSD install. So to do that type the following.<br><br>pkg query -e '%a=0' %n<br><br>Everyday is indeed a school day. 😎<br><br><a href="/tags/runbsd/" rel="tag">#RunBSD</a><br>

Well I can confirm that on my <a href="/tags/freebsd/" rel="tag">#FreeBSD</a> <a href="/tags/thinkpad/" rel="tag">#ThinkPad</a> using the AX200 WiFi setup with lagg works solidly after a wee doas service netif restart && doas service routing restart.

Cool so QT6 was the issue when I ran doas pkg update and doas pkg upgrade yesterday. Today the QT6 version of Qutebrowser has now been built for <a href="/tags/freebsd/" rel="tag">#FreeBSD</a> `15.0 Latest and it no longer tries to uninstall Qutebrowser. 😃<br><br><a href="https://www.freshports.org/www/qutebrowser/" rel="nofollow" class="ellipsis" title="www.freshports.org/www/qutebrowser/"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">www.freshports.org/www/qutebro</span><span class="invisible">wser/</span></a><br>
Every now and then when I come back to use my daily driver running <a href="/tags/debian/" rel="tag">#Debian</a> <a href="/tags/linux/" rel="tag">#Linux</a>, I got surprised why <a href="/tags/apt/" rel="tag">#apt</a> still does not provided short-formed commands like <a href="/tags/pkg/" rel="tag">#pkg</a> in <a href="/tags/freebsd/" rel="tag">#FreeBSD</a> and <a href="/tags/pkgin/" rel="tag">#pkgin</a> in <a href="/tags/netbsd/" rel="tag">#NetBSD</a> do such as:<br><br><p># FreeBSD<br>pkg ins vim # same as pkg install vim<br>pkg sea vim # same as pkg search vim<br><br># NetBSD<br>pkgin in vim # same as pkgin install vim<br>pkgin se vim # same as pkgin search vim<br><br># while in Debian<br>apt search vim # no apt se/sea<br>apt install vim # no apt in/ins<br></p><a href="/tags/unix/" rel="tag">#Unix</a> <a href="/tags/bsd/" rel="tag">#BSD</a> <a href="/tags/foss/" rel="tag">#FOSS</a><br>
I think I got it working now after remaking it lol<br><a href="https://snac.9front.club/thedaemon" rel="nofollow"><span class="invisible">https://</span>snac.9front.club/thedaemon</a><br><a href="/tags/snac2/" rel="tag">#snac2</a> <a href="/tags/snac/" rel="tag">#snac</a> <a href="/tags/freebsd/" rel="tag">#FreeBSD</a><br>
Hmmm Me thinks that <a href="/tags/waybar/" rel="tag">#Waybar</a> has a memory leak as normally it runs with 64Mb ram using my config and uses about 1.5% of the CPU's but after an hour or two it ramps upto 100% useage on all cores and ram useage goes into Gigs until I kill it and restart it. <a href="/tags/wayland/" rel="tag">#Wayland</a> <a href="/tags/freebsd/" rel="tag">#FreeBSD</a><br>

Found the issue with screenshots on <a href="/tags/mangowc/" rel="tag">#MangoWC</a> having random lines in them.<br>I have found out that it is caused by animations on the layerrule for slurp. Previously I had as per the docs:<br><br>layerrule=noblur:1,layer_name:selection<br><br>But have discovered if I also disable animations for slurp then it takes crystal clear screenshot selections now.<br><br>layerrule=noanim:1,noblur:1,layer_name:selection<br><br><a href="https://mangowc.vercel.app/docs/window-management/rules#layer-rules" rel="nofollow" class="ellipsis" title="mangowc.vercel.app/docs/window-management/rules#layer-rules"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">mangowc.vercel.app/docs/window</span><span class="invisible">-management/rules#layer-rules</span></a><br><br><a href="/tags/freebsd/" rel="tag">#FreeBSD</a> <a href="/tags/linux/" rel="tag">#Linux</a><br>
