not sure what changed between 14.3 and 14.4 but package builds take extremely long now

Request for merge: freebsd/freebsd-src #2129

Hey folks. Here's a question I have been unable to resolve with web searches this morning: "Where can I get a SHA256 sum for the freebsd-update utility to make sure it is not a trojan?" I have a server I *think* may be compromised and am doing forensics on it after taking it offline. TIA

From another server/VM perhaps?

unixman_home: cgit.freesd.org/src

download+sha it

just make sure you grab the right one for your osversion

Also, it is a shell script, you can manually review/diff the contents

Thanks!

I forgot it is a script, lts. I've been neck deep in forensics and am one-track today.

If you're not in a hurry, continuing tomorrow is likely to produce better results

Hello Everyone.... can anyone point to a AI in debian community ? I am interested if anyone made working or is using AI Agents such as OpenCODE or Hermes-Agent or AgentZero or OpenClaw ....

llamacpp? ollama?

You might have the wrong channel

Yeah. We're running Ollama on FBSD at the moment for testing some stuff.

acu: Granted, this is FBSD and not Debian.

sorry it was a Freudian slip about Debian ---- I know all of the Agents work flawlesly in Debian - I use them there ---- I wanted to ask about FreeBSD AI Agents ---- like OpenCode etc ----- yes I have ollama on a FreeBSD - with NVIDIA - at this point it seem that NVIDIA and ollama needsk Vuklan - I am testing the difference between similar setup on linux... but I need any agent to run on FreeBSD ...

But the question is what AI Agents work on FreeBSD

I don't recommend using any of them

acu: there is a package for ollama but yeah, it needs vulkan

hi there

Your greeting is acknowledted and returned.

for some reason freebsd doesnt like my graphics card

i have an amd vega56 and whenever i try to load the driver for it i get a kernel panic

i used to have this issue in 14.3 -release a few months ago and thought it would be fixed in 15.0 -release

but no luck, i can only run in console and xorg/wayland isnt possibler

s/possibler/possible/

riad: in order someone to help you you need to provide technical details and steps you have taken - otherwise is difficult to guess - and people have not time for that - so - you need to detailed your steps, and provide people with some error messages from dmesg or other logs

riad: of course if OpenCOde was running on FreeBSD - it would have solve your problem in max 5 minutes

acu: i kinda doubt that xD

because ?

With solutions from Linux materials, probably

heres the dmesg snippet of trying to load the firmware

im genuinely suprised that something as common as a vega56/64 has issues with freebsd (and only freebsd)

acu: because a hallucinating word generator doesnt usually help much with gpu firmware debugging

oh god - please make an effort to actually use the technology before making edicts that have 0 grounding

Decent troll, 4/10

is there a better place to get answers for an issue like such? the mailing lists seem pretty low volume at first glance

riad: the mailing lists are the best place, usually people will turn up when you ask a question

i'm not sure what the right list is for drm drivers though

riad: "Your requested paste entry 'ce5e4038' could not be found" did you accidentally mess up when pasting?

Works for me

ivy: yea the lists are very scattered

riad: if in doubt, post on questions@

ok, strange loading the plainh variant via curl works…

since the driver is a port, you could also cc ports@

ivy: thanks, will do

what was this site which showed dmesg's for bsd's to check for hardware compatibility? it started with ny[dot]

hm, for some reason it tries to load firmware from /boot/firmware/amdgpu/ while gpu-firmware-amd-kmod-vega10 doesn't install anything there (and no other gpu-firmware-kmod port too) but it has similar named .ko in /boot/modules/ to the firmware it wants to load

riad: this makes a thorough inventory - and may tell you details about compatibility .... hw-probe -all -upload

somehow all my pkgbase repos are orphaned? i'm not sure how that happened:

FreeBSD-apm-15.0 ? orphaned: base/FreeBSD-apm

does someone know the best way to diagnose this, and get these back into their repo?
