A running description of activity related to DragonFly BSD.
Thanks to Erik Blomberg and the Vintage Computer Festival Midwest, I now know the Digest has reached a whole new operating system: CP/M. This entertains me.
(It’s the Digest being browsed in text mode on a TeleVideo TS-803, if you can’t see the screen well enough.)
I’m sure there’s some recent stuff I missed; I will catch it in next week’s roundup.
Posting this now cause tomorrow’s too late: the 2019 Bay Area FreeBSD Vendor and Developer Summit is happening today and tomorrow. Go, if you are near.
Note there’s several BUG meetings coming up.
Your book plug of the week: “Of course, if you don’t want to sponsor a book on SNMP I can’t blame you for that either. It’s a horrible topic that most of us would rather pretend didn’t exist.“
It’s Thursday, so BSD Now 317 is posted, with the usual news summary – and a recap of EuroBSDCon 2019.
Whee!
startx(1) for non-root users [with some caveats].A little late linking this, but never mind: BSD Now 315 includes, among its other usual links, a recap of the vBSDCon experience, from the just-completed event.
Mentioning it here because it’s timely: the Vintage Computer Festival Midwest is happening this weekend, and if I wait until the normal day I would post this – Sunday in Lazy Reading – it will be too late. Go if you are anywhere near. (Credit goes to joshua stein on the ChiBUG mailing list – don’t forget their meeting next Tuesday.)
vBSDCon 2019 starts tonight and runs for 2 days – go if you are near.
I am starting to think I need an Apple ][ tag.
I have a number of BSD user group notifications here – please tell me if you have a group and I’m not regularly posting about it.
pfctl -ss‘ output for firewall state tables.Incidentally, my employer, REDCOM, uses FreeBSD as a base for its main product, is deployed in rough areas and in high-security government locations, and is one of the few electronics manufacturers still working entirely in the U.S.. REDCOM also has jobs to fill in New York, where I work. Please, apply if you see a job that interests you – and tell me.
A reminder: if you have a BSD user group and I’m not posting about your meetings, please make sure I know about it.
BSD Now 307 accomplishes another trifecta week, mentioning Free, Net, and Open, and also mentioning that vBSDCon’s call for papers closes tomorrow – I’m mentioning it now cause it’ll be too late to mention for In Other BSDs this weekend.
Done early, for once! I managed to complete this by Thursday night.
aggr(4) driver added to -current. I read it as aggro, can’t help it.Done at the last minute!
The newest BSD Now (300? wow!) has, among other things, a summary of their recent trip to BSDCan 2019.
Watch for post-BSDCan slides and material and ideas to show up in the next few weeks.
I have more links than I expected.
If you didn’t see the email: here’s details on how BSDCan 2019 is starting up, this weekend. Go, even if you aren’t near.
Update: corrected registration details.
