I’m pretty happy of the status of the FreeBSD installation on my laptop: I’m running HEAD and have skype-devel, jdk15, eclipse, and OpenOffice.org-2.4. Eventually, last night I moved my home to a new slice with GELI+Gjournal.
Still to do: Tor configuration…and flash: gnash doesn’t seem to be so stable ATM on my laptop..It may be X.org’s, [...]

Yesterday (and today, FWIW) I’m in a good mood, and without any serious plan to study hard. Weather is not good and the light is awful so no walking around taking photos.
What does it all mean? It means: it’s PR-busting time!
I rewrite the rpcbind’s -h <bindip> option (still to be committed, waiting for feedback, check [...]

Eventually I managed to make ftpd, PF and ftp-proxy work on the same machine with one network interface.
My /etc/rc.conf:
[...]
pf_enable=”YES”
pflog_enable=”YES”
ftpd_enable=”YES” # Enable stand-alone ftpd.
ftpd_flags=”-46Dl”
ftpproxy_enable=”YES”
ftpproxy_flags=”-R 127.0.0.1″
[...]
My /etc/pf.conf:
[...]
#nat section
nat-anchor “ftp-proxy/*”
rdr-anchor “ftp-proxy/*”
rdr pass on $if proto tcp from any to $if port 9021 -> \
127.0.0.1 [...]
Yes, I admit it.
I didn’t know that accelerated graphics drivers were available on FreeBSD (-CURRENT) for my ATI Radeon X700 PCI-E. But yesterday afternoon the will to study for the exam of databases was under my feet, so I configured the graphics acceleration and compiz-fusion. To make AIGLX work, the patch in PR kern/114668 was [...]

So, what’s new after more than a week?
Last Sunday I was at a motorbikers meeting near Modena. Simply great!
Original uploaded by: Rionda (me). Click for more photos.
I’m now busy studying..exams are coming next week. I must thank this long weekend for coming: I would not have enough time otherwise….
What else? Elena is back from Luxembourg, [...]
So, RELENG_7 was branched and it seems a good idea to release a new ISO image of FreeSBIE based on it.
It also looks like people want it (thank you, Julian ), so I think it is a really good idea.
I must admit I’ve not a lot of time to work on it, so I’ll [...]

In a previous post, I asked how to set a blacklist for HAL because my USB pen didn’t work on FreeBSD.
I tried again today and it works flawlessy. *YUPPIDUUU*
Back in May, I wrote a post about Flash on FreeBSD using gnash.
Now that gnash-0.8.1 is in the ports tree, I have to say that the greasemonkey+mplayer hack is no longer needed to watch YouTube videos.
Everything works great using gnash alone.

My GPG key expired on Sunday, so I renewed it today (by changing the expiration date). Download it.
Now and then (more then than now) I remember to update my ToDo List.
This afternoon I was too tired to work on actual code, so I dive in the list of RPC-related PRs and assigned some of them to me.
