Justine SmithiesI wonder if any <a href="https://snac.smithies.me.uk?t=freebsd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FreeBSD</a> or <a href="https://snac.smithies.me.uk?t=bsd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#BSD</a> in general folk can help me fix <code>mmsg</code> for <a href="https://snac.smithies.me.uk?t=maomaowm" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MaomaoWM</a> ?

Stefano Marinelli<p>While I was at BSDCan, I had an idea that I shared with <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/@dgoodkin" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>dgoodkin</span></a></span> and would like to quote in one of my upcoming talks and/or articles. Many young people aren't familiar with the BSDs, and we could try using a bit of psychology to pique their curiosity. <br>Something like: "Hey, consider investing some of your time in FreeBSD. Maybe you'll become an adopter or a dev. After all, Windows is (probably) powering your PC at school, while FreeBSD is powering your PlayStation and Netflix. Maybe you can do without Windows, but what would life be without the other two?"</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/FreeBSD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FreeBSD</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/RunBSD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RunBSD</span></a></p>

Justine SmithiesJust realised that I haven't used Linux personally for a very long time. Yes I have to use it at work for things like Olex plotters on fishing vessels and VSAT modems / firewalls but at home my wife is the only person running Linux, Yes she's into that BTW distro. I seem to actually becoming a fully fledged BSD user and I'm quite proud of that. <a href="https://snac.smithies.me.uk?t=runbsd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#RunBSD</a><br>
ottO<p>So, now that I have the base setup, I need to decide on X or Wayland. To be honest, the happiest I've ever been with a non-mac setup was when I ran Arch with AwesomeWM ( odd I guess ), which <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/wayland" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>wayland</span></a> setup would be close to that?<br>I also balked at runing pkgbasify ... though I should. I think I'm waiting to see if they take my PR so when I run it again I see my text lol.<br><a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/runbsd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>runbsd</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/freebsd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>freebsd</span></a></p>

Stefano Marinelli<p>Thanks to the release of 14.3, I tried reinstalling <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/FreeBSD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FreeBSD</span></a> on my mini-PC.<br>The Wi-Fi is detected EDIT: and it works. Wayland/Plasma works but has two bugs: Ctrl+C closes the session when launched from SDDM, and right-clicking the desktop crashes KWin. It runs correctly on X11.</p><p>Now I need to figure out suspend-to-RAM. After watching Aymeric Wibo's presentation, I'm curious to try his branch. He explained how to do it in the slides, but I'll need to find the instructions.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/RunBSD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RunBSD</span></a></p>

For <a href="https://snac.bsd.cafe?t=gentoo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Gentoo</a> it is very common to use different USE settings for a packages, but for <a href="https://snac.bsd.cafe?t=freebsd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FreeBSD</a> I read from porter's handbook there are not many USE items and they looked different from the term in <a href="https://snac.bsd.cafe?t=gentoo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Gentoo</a>.
