Running docker containers with podman (on NetBSD!)

Hi all, I added a package to pkgsrc called Podman. It's a tool for running OCI containers, and it has the same command line behaviour as the docker command line argument. There are some selling points for it over docker, but the most important for us is the fact it has a mode where it spawns a

fnaify for FNA-based games

Hi folks, The default Python version in pkgsrc is now 3.7, in preparation for the coming end of life date of Python 2.7 (the previous default) at the end of this year. This means any package that can be built with Python 3.7 will be built with it, rather than Python 2.7. Packages with no Python

Re: upgrading an old system

Probably less "cool", but I've previously installed to older i386 machines by just putting their hard disks in a newer amd64 machine that could boot from USB. If you are still interested in a more complex setup, several people have install scripts that could help you not miss any steps you might

Re: suspend trouble

So I've finally had success at repeated suspend with the combination of: 1. no Xorg running (this causes some further issues for now) 2. if I have a drm driver, then sysctl -w hw.acpi.sleep.vbios=0 is needed. if not and using vesa, hw.acpi.sleep.vbios=2 is needed. and most important: 3. disable
