I’ll still keep pkglocate around for more complicated partial name searches but for most of my use cases pkg_info -aQ name is exactly what I need. Mike

It seems pretty random, sometimes I can go several days without this happening. It generally only happens several hours after booting and using various programs. Playing a file with mpv is almost always the trigger for it. The file will start playing for a split second, then the video will freeze. Keyboard is unresponsive, and the mouse cursor will still move, but can't do anything. I can usually still ssh into the machine from a different computer. My assumption was that there is a bug in the amdgpu drm code somewhere. This is the hardware: amdgpu0: CARRIZO 6 CU rev 0x01

As people have already said, you created a file, you didn't zero your SD card. But...what wasn't said (yet? as I'm typing this? Probably twenty people will respond about this two seconds after I hit "SEND") was pointing out this is one of many reasons NOT to create a huge root partition and nothing else. Granted, OpenBSD has lots of OpenBSD-only reasons, too, but one big root partition is Bad Unix Administration. If you had an appropriate sized root partition, perhaps 1G (default), you would have quickly discovered something was wrong, probably in a few seconds. Instead, it took a while, and you assumed you had accomplished your mission of zeroing an SD card. So not only did you fill root, your sensitive data is still on the card. Many system administrators can tell you stories about thinking they were backing up every night to tape, only to find out that they were dumping a big backup *file* in their /dev directory rather than putting their data to tape...and find this when they realize their tape has never been written when they need a restore. $DAYJOB involves helping maintain a bunch of systems that regularly fill their root partitions. Not always by bad initial design, but often because there was "plenty of space" on the root partition, so someone started dropping data or applications there. And then, one day...boom. Partition your system. And / should be as small as you can sanely get away with. That isn't to say it should be super-tiny. But if you have 1GB to spare, it is probably too big. I did learn to regret a 200MB root because OpenBSD grew a lot over around ten years that I used that install. Nick.

Run `ls -lS /dev/|head` and you will surely find it. /dev/rsdb1c is not a valid drive and partition/slice combination. You probably meant rsd1c, but be careful to verify that when wiping.

I have FS and FlexOptix SFP and SFP+ (various LX, SR, LR) in X710-based cards, I don't remember what they're vendor-coded as (probably either Intel or Cisco for the FS, and either Intel or generic for the FlexOptix). It might vary between card firmware too, I don't recall having problems with these (they've been installed for a while though - still running 7.0 on some of them).
old nslookup binary found?
Hello, I accidentally found a possibly old nslookup binary from 2019 in /usr/sbin when I ran nslookup as root: root ~ # echo $PATH /sbin:/usr/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin root ~ # which nslookup /usr/sbin/nslookup root ~ # nslookup openbsd.org Bad system call (core dumped) root ~ # ls -lA /usr/sbin/nslookup -r-xr-xr-x 1 root bin 1499352 Oct 12 2019 /usr/sbin/nslookup But a working nslookup binary is there: root ~ # ls -lA /usr/bin/nslookup -r-xr-xr-x 3 root bin 403056 Mar 25 19:15 /usr/bin/nslookup Is it really just the old official binary which could remain after an upgrade? This is the 7 year old OpenBSD installation which is regularly upgraded. -- Maksim Rodin
