Open post Jared McNeill @jmcneill@mstdn.ca · 5mo ago Replying to @AnachronistJohn@zia.io Alpha will be back soon, I hope, as I’ll be heading to the coast where my AlphaServer DS25 lives. The SuperH build machine might have a failing disk, and if that’s the case, that’ll be replaced during that trip. The Cobalt RAQ2 used to build mipsel binary packages has had its power supply replaced, and so far it has been compiling for several days without issues. I hope this makes it happy. I haven’t quite figured out the issue with the Ubiquiti Edgerouter ERLite. It could be the SSD. That’s in the queue to test. NetBSD-11 PowerPC binaries are being built in a chroot on a Nintendo Wii U. Because NetBSD 11 doesn’t know about the SMP issues on the Wii U, it’s running with just -j 1, but the speed is still excellent. Having 2 gigs of memory certainly helps. @AnachronistJohn oh we should pull up the ld.elf_so change to netbsd-11 so this can work
Open post Jared McNeill @jmcneill@mstdn.ca · 5mo ago Replying to @lkundrak@metalhead.club lot to love about #netbsd and missing surprisingly little. real annoying things: find requires a path. "find ." instead of "find", i'm getting it wrong every time. no "sort -h". how do people sort "du -sh" output? are they content with seeing their file is 173666 blocks big? anybody knows if patches for these would've been accepted or if they'd be shunned off as gnu-isms? @lkundrak@metalhead.club I didn’t know “sort -h” was a thing! I always use “du -sk”

Can you browser the "modern" internet? @release_candidate@mastodon.bsd.cafe Stuff like YouTube and Spotify are unbearably slow. Other things are fine. So I guess "it depends".
Open post Jared McNeill @jmcneill@mstdn.ca · 5mo ago Replying to @lamw@vmst.io #VCF91 has been running in my lab for some time, digging all enhancements! I'll be sharing various tips for lab purposes in coming weeks, stay tuned! One of my fav updates is NMVe Tiering capability, can view it in vSphere UI, enable w/o reboot, Nested ESX works & much more! @lamw@vmst.io any Arm servers in that lab? 😀
