Actually, there is one major difference between the two systems that I
had forgotten about. While both use the Calm window manager, the system
that is experiencing problems with the browser file dialogs, uses
PCManFM...

They come with an embedded version Windows 10, but I've had no issues
running OpenBSD 6.8-7.0 on it, 9front, or LInux. IIRC, it supports EFI
booting, but I've only used legacy BIOS boot.

If you get one from eBay, I would recommend opening it and verifying that
all the internal screws are tight. I had some loose either from shipping or
carelessness on the mSATA hold-down and a few other places.


few notes on a HP T430 Thin Client...which probably apply to some other HP
thin clients, definitely not others.

HP T430: 16GB "disk", 2G RAM Intel N4000 dual core
1) OpenBSD requires the machine be in UEFI mode, which is a change from the
HP linux which requires it be in legacy mode.  If not in UEFI, you have no
storage (for OpenBSD).

2) bsd.rd doesn't work without a monitor or fake monitor plug attached.
Thus, if running headless, you can't do a "sysupgrade" (but can do a
"remote upgrade" without bsd.rd/sysupgrade).  Standard bsd.mp kernel works
just fine.  Friend of mine reports Linux does the same thing.

3) Rather than using a formal HP power pack, you can "fake it" with just
about anything capable of putting out 12-20v and 0.75A or more.  High value
(100k-300k) resistor added between center pin and +V on the computer
overrides the "Is this an HP power pack?" test.  The higher the voltage, the
lower the current draw.  Hint: the parts are tiny, the workspace is cramped,
not a good way to learn to solder. :)

4) Total power dissipation was 4w while compiling a kernel, which took
25 minutes.  2W when idle (according to a wattmeter that had a 1W
granularity on its readings, so +/-1W on the reading).

5) X seems to just work.  Have not used it extensively, though.

6) wired: re(4).  Wireless (IF so equipped): iwm0

IF you happen to be in the Detroit, MI area and want one, I've got
too many, contact me off-list.  Probably cost less than Ebay "shipping".

Nick.

Re: Browser access to file system on new install OpenBSD missing.

2022-07-11 Thread Mihai Popescu
> ... how to rectify it is beyond my capabilities as a new OpenBSD user.

First of all, there is nothing to rectify. All was done to act like
this and to serve a specific purpose. Much work and developers'
efforts were poured into this, again with a specific great purpose (
hint: security related).

As someone from development already said many times on this list, it
is very irritating to see some user asking for help for or trying to
circumvent those setups or even worse, seeing developers offering
advice on how to disable those rules by common users.

It is not forbidden to do that, but this must be left to people who
know what they are doing, and for very very very very narrow field in
which most users are not included.
It is easier for you to store whatever you need access for it later in
~/Downloads and use the configuration it like it is shipped.

Thank you.

Re: Fanless amd64 sytem recommendations

Hi Stuart,

Thanks very much for the suggestion!   I was able to build and preliminary
tests show that rclone on aarch64 is working with OpenBSD 7.1.  I am able
to do restore one of my backups from my GoogleDrive.  FANTASTIC.

Should I just send an email to the "Maintainer" to indicate that this can
be changed?

Trying to build it was my original thought but I've gone down the road of
trying to fix broken ports before and it's led to a lot of pain because...
they are marked "BROKEN" for a reason!  People much smarter than me have
tried to fix them :).

In this case, I should have tried :(  Thanks for the nudge.

Cheers,
Steve W.

Nothing in readmes that hit a note, except possibly dbus not running? I
have two computers running the latest stable, but this problem is only on
the one... The other thing that I have noticed is that $ uname -v returns
GENERIC.MP#465 on the one, while the other responds GENERIC.MP#0.
Otherwise, to my knowledge, both computer installs are exactly the same
and of recent date (within two weeks) of each other.

Thanks for your replies, but I am still confused...

This sounds like an unveil(2) issue. Only white-listed paths are
accessible, they are configured in /etc/firefox/unveil.* .

~/Downloads should be enabled by default though.

Try removing the BROKEN-aarch64 and building from ports.

It has been a while since the BROKEN markers were added for this and there
have been a number of updates, both to rclone itself, and to lang/go, in
the meantime.

If it still fails then maybe there's some go build option that might help.
My initial reaction is that this is more likely to be a problem in go than
in rclone.

Heho,
I personally run a Dell 7030 micro for a similar purpose; There is basically a 
model from each 'big' vendor, and as outlined they are _really_ cheap as used 
units on ebay.

There is a series called 'tiny mini micro' by "ServeTheHome" on our favorite 
non-free video site which goes over a range of these different devices. 
Something like the "Lenovo M90n-IoT" might also be worthwhile to look at (even 
though it comes with an Intel CPU).

With best regards,

build in.
The BIOS is configurable to boot up or reboot on power. So if you have a power 
failure and power comes back it reboots. Just like a RPI. It is a laptop CPU so 
doesn't consume a lot of power.
I just it with Linux as display server in our local Cinema, Movie theater ️ 
entrance to showcast all the movie trailers.
Got like 10 running instances 16 hours a day never had an issue with.

Kind regards
Wim
