AKA brynet@. Canadian π¨π¦. I like tinkering with OpenBSD and occasionally other Unix-like systems. In other words, not a MCP. He/Him. hacker^Wslacker. @canadianbryan previously. https://brynet.ca/ Buy me pizza π https://brynet.ca/wallofpizza.html
From the OpenBSD 6.7 release artwork by Jonni Phillips, puffy with a slice of pizza hanging out of its mouth.

I'd really appreciate the occasional pizza, or if you can help some other way, e.g: to pick up parts, I have an Amazon .ca wishlist with some odds and ends. π₯° π

"the latest snapshots for amd64 and arm64 (...) include my recent changes to add support for H.264 streams
from USB webcams."

Good news for CAD software users, #FreeCAD (1.0.1) is now in the #OpenBSD -current ports tree.
A huge effort by Johannes Thyssen Tishman (jtt@) and others porters getting this committed.

OpenBSD -current has a new driver for AMD machines, amdpmc(4), similar to intelpmc(4), for power management control needed to enter even lower power idle states during suspend-to-idle (S0i), which #OpenBSD has began supporting since 7.6.

qwx(4) is found on machines like the ThinkPad x13s.

Heads up, several #OpenSSH IPQoS changes have landed in #OpenBSD -current.
The default for interactive sessions becomes EF (Expedited Forwarding), as well as a deprecation for older IPv4 "type-of-service" (TOS) IPQoS keywords.

#OpenBSD/arm64 now supports the ARM "System Control and Management Interface" for CPU performance control, and speed reporting (hw.cpuspeed), via the smci(4) driver.
This is used to implement apmd(8), hw.perfpolicy/hw.setperf on Qualcomm Snapdragon X Elite machines.

That's a lot of pizzas. Congrats to the folks' at oxide.

I could really use some help getting by, monthly donations have dropped off lately which has made things difficult. π

The easiest fix is to just wait for new packages, basically everything needs to be rebuilt. 'FILE' was made opaque necessitating it.

Heads up for #OpenBSD -current users: There's been a major crank of libc and most base system libraries.
Reminder it will take time for new snapshots/packages to be built and copied out for each architecture.

Looking for monthly/yearly no-strings sponsors, if any companies (or individuals) would like to help support me so that I can focus on open source. I'm open to Chat on here, or feel free to Email me.
