NetBSD

The company runs an open source sponsorship program that's committed over $260,000 as of March.

It also supports KDE, XFE, Arch, Debian, Bazite, NixOS, FreeBSD, NetBSD, and others.

So they spread the love around.

This is not just only supporting CacheOS.

The CPU currently runs at the highest, uh, two gigahertz.

Once ESTD, is that a NetBSD tool? ESTD.

ESTD.

ESTD.

Mm.

I haven't found any tricks to tune while reading the online guide.

There may be more things to do, but to be honest, NetBSD was not the target system, so the machine didn't spend much time on it.

Uh, on BSD 7.9, once the system is installed, blah, blah, blah, blah, power consumption is 21 watts.

While the default value is 6, it says nothing about what values must be accepted.

I tested several implementations specifically from GNU, FreeBSD, NetBSD, and OpenIndiana, which is an open source derivative of System 5, and none of them allow setting the width of the space for line numbers to be less than 1.

Even if it were possible to remove the preceding space entirely, POSIX only requires NL to accept one file argument and to operate on text files, so it would still be limited.

You can find the actual commands to use in the show notes for this episode.

Another possibility is tail.

When used with the hyphen C plus one option, it outputs the entirety of the file.

Unlike the other implementations I tried, the NetBSD version of TAIL is capable of taking multiple file names as arguments.

However, in that case, it precedes the content of each file with the file name like head does, so it doesn't produce a clean copy.

What the fuck happened to nerds? Uh, an ACPI layer has been added to VMD.

NetBSD 11 from scratch, and a fun FreeBSD backup library story.

All of this and so much more on BSD Now.

[upbeat music] Here we go.

So this is mean, M-I-C-I-O, .org.

This was a really fun post.

Um, so basically it's very detailed, but I would say, well, the title is NetBSD 11 from Scratch.

And I'd say if you're familiar with how you would install, say like OpenBSD, it basically takes the approach of installing NetBSD, um, using disk encryption, but using the commands rather than the, the system installer.

This week on BSD Now, we talk about GEFS, NetBSD 9.5 being released, EchoBSD makes a return with 2.1.

Think about your goals, threat models for MFA authentication.

OpenSMTPd has seen a new portable release of 7.9.0p0, and replacing security PAM SSH agent, or with a SSH agent.

Yeah.

Yeah, cool.

I guess we talked about, um, the two heavyweights there, but of course the, the one near and dear to my heart is NetBSD, and so the next in the headlines here is NetBSD 9.5, uh, was released.

So this was on the 31st of August.

So there's a, a link in the show notes.

And then you can't use most BSDs.

I think NetBSD is like one of the only holdouts.

There's a couple others.

Right.

In the, in the me Malik paper, there's, there's a, there's a paper out of Microsoft about the me Malik allocator.

And it says me Malik has been ported to many platforms, windows, Mac OS, Linux, free BSD, net BSD, dragon fly, and various consoles.

What's dragon flight.

and is easy to build and integrate into other projects.
