gobsd.com has the source code for various major BSDs at gobsd.com/code. It’s apparent;y been there for a while, but only recently reactivated.
UnixReview.com seems to have recovered from last week’s Linuxgasm and has several good articles up: a book review of “php|architect’s Guide to PHP Security“, “Regular Expressions: Getting Started with SCons” (a make replacement), and the Perl-oriented “Common Network Protocols“.
Adrian Nida has put together a new version of Andrew Atren’s atheros wireless driver; it’s worked for him on DragonFly 1.3.6, so far. I don’t know why this isn’t included in the DragonFly system yet.
If you’re running Preview or Development versions of DragonFly (1.3.x), David Rhodus has uploaded a new pkgsrc binary set, with over 3,200 packages built for DragonFly.
drhodus’s blog on GoBSD.com now describes a problem with the “lost+found” directory created during a fsck.
Peter Schuller has a nice writeup (and addendum) explaining the capabilities of pkgmanager, an new utility for handling pkgsrc installation.
OpenOffice, which has been around for 5 years now, just released version 2.0. Wow, the web site is pretty.
OnLamp.com has an interview up now of some OpenBSD developers, talking about the about-to-be-released OpenBSD version 3.8.
drhodus’s blog on GoBSD.com mentions a strange panic found on DragonFly and FreeBSD systems that has so far been unsolvable.
For those of you using PF, there’s a tutorial by Peter Hansteen (OpenBSD-centric, but still applies) that was recently updated. (thanks, BSDForums)
UnixReview.com has a review of a game for learning music, called GNU Solfege. The rest of the articles for the week are all Linuxy.
Adrian Nida’s recent installation troubles have spawned a longer thread that talks about the various issues – a good read about fdisk issues and why source isn’t included with the install CD.
OnLAMP.com has an article up about “Lightweight Web Serving with thttpd“. thttpd, if you didn’t know, is found at the fabulously-named acme.com
Joerg Sonneberger has an untested driver for anyone using a Ralink RT2500/RT2500USB wireless adapter, supported in other BSDs.
A new document explaining the various CVS tags has been placed on the wiki by Adrian Nida.
Liam J. Foy put together a list of BSD-related RSS feeds; you can read them all on his site.
Jonathon McKitrick asked about obfuscating assembly code, which seems like a redundancy. In any case, the thread let to some discussion of interesting tricks, and also George Georgalis posting links to “How To Write Unmaintainable Code“, and a special obfustication section.
Matthew Dillon’s working on getting his dual-core Shuttle systems working with DragonFly, with some issues.
UnixReview.com this week has 3 book reviews: Perl Best Practices, File System Forensic Analysis, and Open Source for the Enterprise. There’s also a review of the game Pingus, which is a clone of the old game Lemmings.
