Distribution of the most used operating systems on #BoxyBSD. Most users tend to use #FreeBSD for their free VM. #OpenBSD and #OpenIndiana (still in beta) share the second place, followed by #NetBSD.

#OpenIndiana snapshot 2024.04 is here

Check out the release announcement for more info!

The work on #OpenIndiana continues. Join us tomorrow Sunday at 17:00 CEST at https://meet.chaostreffbern.ch/OpenIndianaCoWorkingSessions there are rumblings of people working on software and we want to look again into package quality.

Shhh! Something is coming... Don't tell anyone.

Our first weekly will start on the 25th, April 2024 at 7 PM (GMT+2).

You can find all the details on the #BSDCafe wiki:
https://wiki.bsd.cafe/docs:weekly-bsdpub

For the first one, I already created a small agenda (https://wiki.bsd.cafe/docs:weekly-bsdpub-meeting-minutes-2024-04-25). You are highly encouraged to modify and extend this, as well as upcoming agendas!

Overview:
Day: Thursdays (weekly)
Time: 7 PM - 8 PM (GMT +2)
Where: https://meet.gyptazy.ch/BSDPub (Jitsi)
Infos: https://wiki.bsd.cafe/docs:weekly-bsdpub
Agenda: https://wiki.bsd.cafe/docs:weekly-bsdpub-meeting-minutes-2024-04-25
Info: No recordings, no deep tech dives (keep it simple, we have calls for the details, no pressures to anyone, have fun and enjoy)

When I started the poll to ask for interests in such a meeting I wasn’t sure that even more than 5 people would be interested. I’m happy to see this amount of interested BSD users. I’m aware of the different timezones and it might make sense to have a second timeslot. This one mostly covers the European and near-east users. I’m happy to hear suggestions regarding preferred timeslots for the US, Asia,… so far, I’m happy to see at least a few of you next Thursday in the call!

Maybe there would be significant differences about kernel memory management between #Solaris based (including #OpenSolaris and #OpenIndiana) OS'es and #FreeBSD. On #FreeBSD, if there are large enough RAM and swap is used only for backend of tmpfs and for crash dumps, there should be completely no problem with swap on ZVOLs or swap file on ZFS.
But once swap is used for paging/swaping, ZFS code possibly fails to allocate memory to handle paging/swapping, thus panics with (usually) double fault.
