This is the umpteenth time I've tried this, starting with version 1.6.1 😅 Could this be the definitive? I hope 💪 Now I have to config automount for external disk/USB keys and I need to find a way to encrypt my external disk and use it both in GNU\Linux and NetBSD. CGD (I never tried it on Linux and I didn't find anything online)? ZFS? Anyone have an idea? I know I can use OpenSSL or GPG but I think it's better and more confortable to encrypt the full drive... P.S. I love NetBSD but pkgin is really slow 😅 (It's probably not a problem with pkgin, but rather my Wi-Fi card.) #bsd #netbsd #bsdunix #unix #unixITA #unixitalia #guuf #guufxmpp #guufITA  #linux #linuxITA #linuxitalia

Mission accomplished, it seems! I must have messed something up during "sysupgrade etcupdate" because my user was no longer in the "wheel" group, but luckily it wasn't a big deal (thanks usermod 🤣) Then I updated pkgsrc with "cvs update -dP"  and edited /usr/pkg/etc/pkgin/repositories.conf to change the release number. I hope that’s correct! The update of all packages was successful, so I’m assuming it is. Is it normal that "pkgin upgrade" re-download and reinstall all packages, even those that are already the same version? I'd say the overall experience has been very positive. P.S. i3status gives me an error if I use UTF-8 "icons" (it worked with 10.1), but it's not really a big deal. #bsd #netbsd #bsdunix #unix #unixITA #unixitalia #guuf #guufxmpp #guufITA #linux #linuxITA #linuxitalia

Unfortunately, for of my university mail account, I have to use Microsoft Outlook (I know, I know! Luckily, I’ve set up a redirect, so I hardly ever have to use it). Tonight I tried using Firefox on NetBSD, but “Something went wrong.” When I changed the user agent and set it to "Firefox on Linux", everything works fine, no problems, nothing "was wrong"! In short, I think “Microsoft loves open source" but not NetBSD 😆. One more reason to keep using it 😈 (Forgive the corny joke, I know MS doesn’t actually love open source at all 😆) #bsd #netbsd #bsdunix #unix #unixITA #unixitalia #guuf #guufxmpp #guufITA #linux #linuxITA #linuxitalia
