We still need one or more volunteers to help with recording the talks.
Please contact me off-list if you are
Hi,

Why don't NetBSD have the Xfburn to burn CD and DVD?
Probably at least because libburn does not yet know how to
perform SCSI transactions (passthrough) on NetBSD.
(It has a system adapter for FreeBSD which uses CAM:

Unless you're going to be using applications that don't compile on

The only example of application that I wanted to install from binary

Hello there,
Still wonder if I should try the NetBSD/amd64.
The only reason to install a 32-bit OS on an otherwise 64-bit capable hardware
would be, if the system-ram is 2GB or less.
Otherwise, you'd waste resources and CPU-capabilities.
The 64-bit mode comes with a couple registers unavaible

Actually the B590 comes with 2GB RAM, its the cheapo-edition. But my
demands are not high, most ressources go for Firefox with Javascript or
some movie player like xine.
I hope just 2GB doesnt slow down the amd64 or get it stuck. Did you try
such combination, Volkmar?
Well, RAM isn't

Beware, if it comes with Windows 8, it will have a GPT

Well, RAM isn't expensive, so I guess I'd install the 64-bit version anyway.
Indeed I did that on a set-top-box

from John Nemeth jnem...@cue.bc.ca:
Released versions of NetBSD have okay support for GPT. -current
has much better support for GPT. The intention is to backport the
improvements after they are complete.
Currently, NetBSD can boot with a GPT in CSM mode, but not
full UEFI mode.
