It’s been a quiet week in BSD-land, at least in terms of me finding links.
- “I know BSD isn’t secure because I can’t install Norton.“
- “Oops” and there’s D-Link DIR-655 support in FreeBSD.
- The ata driver in FreeBSD is
removedmodified. (see comments) - Steam available on PC-BSD. Old news, but always good.
- service(8) now available in NetBSD too.
- How to check out older revisions of pkgsrc packages.
- Tips on a DB9-RJ45 serial cable for Sun hardware, from OpenBSD.
- URL blacklisting in OpenBSD.
- lmc(4) and san(4), removed from OpenBSD.
- RFC7427 support in OpenBSD.
- DiscoverBSD for 2015/03/23.
It seems the FreeBSD commit is not removing ata(4), but removing support for newer hardware now supported by other drivers.
