Girl is eating cereal. There's some slop in it.
Girl: "Master, my fish food is sloppy!"
Fish: "Eat something else."

Thanks to @libreleah ๐ซถ, my stupid self is not using the corrupted fox anymore on #OpenBSD. The "stable-7.8" version of #Librewolf is a bit old but seem to work as expected.

OK So I have discovered that I do not need seatd started at all. @vlkrs@bsd.network and this post helped.
https://www.reddit.com/r/openbsd/comments/1hp0pcd/wayland_works_as_root_but_no_keyboard_response_as/
Basically I just needed to add "/dev/wsmouse1" and "/dev/wskbd1" to /etc/fbtab.
OK #OpenBSD friends, Why when I install Sway or Mango ( #Wayland ) can I not get any keyboard control ? I can run them fine on #FreeBSD but on OpenBSD they both start but the keyboard does nothing on the mouse seems to work on waybar. I'm using known working configs for both.
I do see errors like permission denied for /dev/wskb* . I'm at a loss as I'm sure I had sway running last year ??
Even copied the startsway.sh and modified for mango but still no keyboard ???
Please boost for a larger reach. ❤️
@vlkrs@bsd.network Are you able to assist at all ? TIA

Trying out #vimb on #OpenBSD and it is the latest version 3.7.1 but I think the OpenBSD port vimb is using the wrong webkitgtk although I'm no expert ?? In the port it uses webkitgtk41 but their github page says to use webkitgtk60 and so features like tabopen do not work and it might be the reason webkit crashes when trying to open a youtube.com page ????
https://github.com/fanglingsu/vimb
Any ports devs able to confirm ????
Today in Dave Hates Software ... #tailscale! Which I normally like! But today, on #OpenBSD, it shat all over /etc/resolv.conf and left the system in a weird state where host(1) could resolve hostnames to IPs using #DNS, but nothing else could. No, I don't understand that either.
Anyway, I recommend tailscale regardless.
My Wayland happy list: Mango, Foot, Fuzzel, wl-clipboard, kanshi, wlopm, swayidle, swayimg, swaylock, waybar and Dunst.
A lot of hubbub over remote a crash, a DoS, not a privesc or RCE.
#OpenBSD never claimed to have zero remote crashes. The goal has always been to minimize attack surface, and mitigate the impact of attacks.
I believe it's worth pointing out the errata was out for 7.7/7.8 almost ~3 weeks ago, and users had a patch ~90 minutes after it was committed.

root device: and freeze. There are quite a few settings to search through but I got it all back up and running. ๐
Is it wednesday already? Then it's time for the next parts of the #OpenBSD/m88k story.
In these parts, m88k systems get to finally enjoy ELF binaries with shared libraries, hardware support improves, and luna88k gets the best bootloader, ever.

Mark Kettenis has added #OpenBSD/arm64 support for the new hw.blockcpu sysctl, classifying CPU types based on device-tree and ACPI CPPC information.
kettenis@ modified src/sys/arch/arm64/*: Add hw.blockcpu support for arm64. Here we classify CPU cores based on their "capacity". This a concept borrowed from the device tree standard that indicates the nominal performance of a CPU core. For ACPI machines we use similar information from ACPI's Collaborative Processor Performance Control (CPPC). If performance is less than 30% of the fastest cores in the same we classify them as L. Between 30% and 80% we classify them as E.
And above 80% we classify them as P. The CPU capacity is communicated to userland though kstat(4).ok deraadt@, jca@
In addition to using kstat(1) on your machines, kettenis@ tested the following machines:
- Lenovo x13s (Snapdragon 8c): Cortex-A78C -> E + Cortex-X1C -> P
- Rock 5B (Rockchip RK3588): Cortex-A55 -> E + Cortex-A76 -> P
- Apple Mac mini (M2 Pro): Blizzard -> E + Avalanche -> P
- Radxa Orion O6 (Cix CD8180): Cortex-A520 -> L + Cortex-A720 -> P

Welcome to the OpenBSD/amd64 7.8 installation program.
With #openbsd 7.9 now in beta and the release expected to hit in a few weeks' time, "You Have Installed OpenBSD. Now For The Daily Tasks." https://nxdomain.no/~peter/openbsd_installed_now_for_the_daily_tasks.html may be due for a re-read. (And minor updates to come, certainly)

EuroBSDcon 2026's call for papers is open, see https://2026.eurobsdcon.org/cfp/
Here is a direct link to the submissions form https://events.eurobsdcon.org/2026/submit/ew426G/info/
@eurobsdcon #eurobsdcon #openbsd #netbsd #freebsd #conference #development #devops #sysadmin #freesoftware #libresoftware
In #openbsd what is called #vi is actually #nvi, and when you install #nvi from ports, it is #nvi2.
To danes with our national characters รฆรธรฅ we need the latter because #vi prints two byte hex sequences for รฆ, รธ, or รฅ. #vi handles them correctly except for the printing of them.
#vi and #nvi use the same #man page.
Today, you can't trust anything you read from the Internet, except of course the next part of the #OpenBSD on m88k story, in which new hardware enters the scene, setbacks happen, and many hopes are left unfulfilled (for now).
I can confirm that on my #OpenBSD -current #367 machine hw.blockcpu=L works for enabling SMT instead of the soon to be obsolete hw.smt=1
Theo de Raadt has introduced a new hw.blockcpu sysctl to #OpenBSD -current to offer more control over which CPU core types (Performance, Efficiency, and SMT) are available to schedule processes on. Modern Intel (and ARM) CPUs additionally have slower LP-E (low-power) core that severely hinder system performance.
deraadt@ modified src/sys/*: Some new intel machines have a new 3rd tier of cpus called LP-E which are E-core (Atom) without L3 cache. These cpus are Lethargic, and it sucks when processes migrate to them.
This introduces sysctl hw.blockcpu= which takes a sequence of 4 letters.
S (for SMT), P (regular performance cpu), E (efficient cpu) generally 80% to 50% as fast), and L (lethargic cpu) which are even slower.
By setting this, you can select cpus to kick out of the scheduler. The default is SL.
The hw.smt sysctl remains for now but we will eventually delete it.
hw.smt changes and follows hw.blockcpu=S.

More monkeying around with OpenBSD. I spent a bunch of time getting LXQt working but the themeing was taking too much time so I threw more ram at the VM and installed KDE. The goal was to learn about OpenBSD, not LXQT. Ha.
Lots of the standard apps are there in OpenBSD but I need to find out how to get Librewolf and Waterfox going. Having done zero research, I'm assuming I need to compile from source.
I saw an article out using "Molly" as an alternate Signal Messenger client (xn--gckvb8fzb.com/if-you-must-use-signal-use-molly/). May try it in the future.
The KDE Plasma version is 6.4.5. IIRC KDE is stopping X11 support so I will need to figure out something else I guess. I've seen threads about Wayland on OpenBSD but didn't go down the rabbit hole yet. What little I read implied not ready for prime time.
The VM feels pretty snappy even though the QEMU agent doesn't really help with video options. This is using the VGA driver setup to get a decent resolution.
I really need to get this Jeep back on the road. I miss it.

Fish gives Postman fish a letter. Postman fish travels through a dangerous evil forest. Postman fish reaches a computer. Postman fish checks Fish's letter. It says "ls" and a key is attached. Postman fish types ls on the computer. It prints the output of the command. Postman fish copies the output of the command and travels back to Fish. Postman fish hands Fish the output of "ls" in a neat envelope with a fish sticker.
ok, some more work on my OpenBSD install..

For people who have been following my #OpenBSD stories, you know that I have started a new 5-week saga.
There might be readers who have no interest in the current m88k saga.
I can publish that m88k saga in the next four weeks, and then switch to other stories; or I can interleave them, with one more m88k episode every two weeks, and another completely unrelated story every other week.
What would you readers prefer?

Researching my NYCBUG talk on 1 April reminded me of FretBSD.

The fifth paragraph, or #OpenBSD? My career peaked early. That last sentence is the finest thing I will ever write.
How about a new #OpenBSD story for breakfast (if you're having breakfast now, that is)?

After years and years of using relayd(8) and https(8) hosting my blog on #OpenBSD, I decided to drop them both for nginx. Compared to nginx, they just weren't "modern" enough.

Not great timing, I know, but I'm thinking a Intel mini PC (e.g: N150, 11th Gen i5/i7) would work for my #OpenBSD testing & hacking, Any help towards this would be greatly appreciated.

TIL that the trunk(4) #OpenBSD manual page has an EXAMPLES section that describes how to "(...) set up roaming between wired and wireless networks using two network devices (...)". Which means you don't have to access the OpenBSD FAQ to do it. And that's fscking great when you brought your laptop to the and forgot to configure the automatic switching!
