Good day to all. I need some help... um, I'd like to know if this is a valid and reasonable approach to change a password for a Solaris machine,

% uname -n; a=foo; printf "${a}:changeThisPassphraseRightAway"|sudo -k tcsh -c "passwd -f ${a};" && history -d $(history|tail -1|awk '{print $1}'); echo $?; unset a

Please let me know if there's a better way to do this. Thanks in advance.

looks like we have a spambot: illumos.org/issues/3195#change-42030 illumos.org/issues/3196#change-42031 (first one has a spammy post from 5 years ago as well)

→ BUG 3195: mpt_sas IOC reset races can cause panics (Resolved)

hello, I guess my chances are very low to get the nvidia driver working on my thinkpad p52 with a nvidia quadro p1000 graphics when the driver complains "Failed to copy vbios to system memory"? nvidia says it's very likely a ACPI issue, but booting without acpi panics as soon as it touches the internal nvme or the usb ports of course...

P1000 is relatively new right?

p52 is ~2017

oh, even 2018

sjorge: well, 5 years

sjorge: according to nvidia the 535 supports the card

yuripv: exactly

yuripv: Yes, I'm looking into the spam thing. LLMs have brought a new level of irritatingly plausible spam haha

thanks for the heads up

time for mdb-based captchas
