BarnabasDK: xcb

so you have some error between sddm and xcb. Maybe someone can give you some kind of answer?. Posterdati you need to be specific

Posterdati, logfiles please

I am sorry I don't mean to be a wise ass

look in /var/log

i've got an ssd that reports 32K, and when i install freebsd on it, it seems ashift=12 (4K) is used. zpool status calls it out. should i leave it as 4K? i don't see any way to address this at install time.

markmcb: Super curious, never heard of 32k sectors - can you link to product?

WD_BLACK SN850X 8000GB

diskinfo shows "32768 # stripesize"

zpool status: "block size: 4096B configured, 32768B native"

markmcb: Huh. Well, when I searched for it I ran across a thread that says "ssds have ben known to lie" and "leave it at 4k"

yeah, i've read that they lie on "sector size", and indeed this one shows 512

but my understanding is that's for backwards compatibility issues. i've not read of claiming larger than reality

Absolutely. I wonder if having a 32k cell is part of the TLC nand "cost savings" compared to others?

Oh, hrm, might be an nvme thing. I have two samsung 870 EVOs, but they're connected with SATA cables.

(Both running zfs)

Hi, if I would like to configure jupyter-notebook as a service (so it is run on bootup, similar to other services) how would I do it? what if i want to run it as a specific user? Any guidance/tips on where to start looking is welcomed

uskerine_: i don't know what jupyter-notebook is, but if it's a port and can run as a daemon, it should have installed an rc script in /usr/local/etc/rc.d

if so, you can do something like 'service jupyter_notebook enable; service jupyter_notebook start'

it is a port and it does not have a rc script, and I would like to create a specific rc script, is that possible ? if so where shall I look

jupyter notebooks are the web front end for ipython

uskerine_: rc scripts are fairly simple, you can probably take an existing script in /usr/local/etc/rc.d/ and modify it for what you want

I will have a look

chatgpt is coding a rc script for that, it seems easy thanks

I'm seeing excessive DHCP traffic (1 to 5 min interval) for a freebsd VM. Every DHCP req/ack is followed by an ICMP "port 68 unreachable" from the VM, and sockstat shows no listener. Should there be one? rc.conf has ifconfig_DEFAULT="DHCP inet6 accept_rtadv" and the IP supplied by DHCP is being used by the VM

hi

please help, is there any guide to correctly configure an nvidia hybrid gpu (geforce 610m) + intel graphics 3rd gen on 14.2? Thanks!

:(

Posterdati: please wait patiently. if you don't find the answer here, maybe try freebsd forum

la_mettrie: mmh seems that solutions on forums do not work in my case

Which solution did you try and what happened?

cracauer: I installed nvidia drivers 390

not nvidia secondary

and drm-515-kmod

then I have two config files under /usr/local/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d

20-intel.conf

and 20-nvidia.conf

20-intel.conf

 

Section "Device"

Identifier "Card0"

Driver "intel"

BusID "PCI:0:2:0"

EndSection

and 20-nvidia.conf = pastebin.com/URJetfzM

when X starts, screen become black with the console cursor (not the X cursor)

Xorg.0.log = pastebin.com/Vj29ms4L

nvidia is always a problem on bsd

nvidia should put free drivers out...

yamada: i think they have some in the pipeline for linux written in rust, but i'm past the point of caring about nvidia in any way, shape or form

well will take time until there is much rust support on bsd

anyway the latest packages update broke my system :)

Posterdati: It should be almost automatic other than xrandr commands

I've done this with Linux just recently and it seems like the same is true for FreBSD as well.

Posterdati: What does 'xrandr --listproviders' output with the min. (or no) xorg.conf?

skered: cannot open display

Posterdati: You need to run it in X.

What GPU are you booting from?

skered: the problem is that cannot run X

skered: I cannot select it from bios

Ok so which GPU are you booting from then?

I do not know

seems to be intel since i915kms change console resolution

And you're saying you can't force it to use the nvidia by default?

not only, X won't work

I would move both of the xorg.conf.d files with driver out of the .d dir and try again

ok

er Device

installed drm-515-kmod

it seems to work on console resolution and drm

skered: still in console, X is not starting

badland.io/prime-configuration.md That's close to what I've done on Linux

Othe than it being automatic.

[drm] Unable to create a private tmpfs mount, hugepage support will be disabled(-19)

on Xorg

(EE) cannot run in framebuffer mode

it loaded intel and framebuffer only in X

(WW) VGA arbiter: cannot open kernel arbiter, no multi-card support

skered: I've got a beautiful black screen with the configuration from that webpage

:(

I'm forced to return to linux

I have a bunch of Bastille jails, and I noticed that neither the "base system" nor any of the jails can connect to itself via the outside. So, connection via the direct internal IP works, but via its own public IP does not. Is there some special PF rule I need to allow for that?

zilti: is that jail host behind a nat gateway, or have a real public ip?

rtprio: the jail itself does not have a public IP, no. It is accessible from the outside via the machine's public IP, accessible from within the machine with its private IP, but from within the machine, it cannot be accessed via the machine's public IP, giving me a "connection refused".

yes, you would need a pf rule for this

Heya, I'm running into the issue "/usr/local/steam-utils/bin/.utils.rb:204:in `block (2 levels) in download_debs': unable to download libc6_2.35-0ubuntu3.8_amd64.deb" when trying to run steam for the first time, has anyone run into that?

you run steam on freebsd?

yamada freshports.org/games/linux-steam-utils

i see

well for ports try to contact the port maintainers

yamada their direct email? Or the mailing list?

you need to check for that port who maintains it

dvl, ping

jbo: yo

dvl, what does the "=2" signify next to the PORTVERSION/DISTVERSION and category (left of the "icons")?

dvl, freshports.org/devel/malloy

jbo: You're probably in dark mode. It's the number of people following this port (i.e. how many watch lists is it on) - search for Watch List Count (WLC) at freshports.org/faq.php

dvl, thank you.

dvl, hopefully that does not depend on dark/light mode tho?

no worries, my pleasure.

you could probably swap it out for a "Σ" by now eh?

aah, there's a sigma next to it :)

I indeed did not spot that :)

jbo: Well, in dark mode, the Σ part is hard to see

yep - my bad. thanks again!

better graphics required.

no worries

rtprio: Okay, can you give me a rough pointer what I am looking for? I've never made a PF rule like this.
