Love it, in principle !! * The overall impression is one of periodic bugginess. The delays in operation set in as soon as the Internet browser is fired up, for example. Then both processors got up to 70%usage and nothing much happens - it locks up, a lot. Its almost like PC-BSD is a hackers delight, in that the machine is being taken over as soon as it goes online - - - At this point in time, 490 processes are typically running, but nothing is happening - the machine is stuck. Suddenly, after leaving it for an hour it may free up - and then it runs normally. Using Firefox - or Opera has the same effects sometimes - but at different times. The difference between the bugginess in either of these Browsers is mainly that it will happen at different times - or under different circumstances. Firefox 18.01 runs great once this bugginess resolves, if it does. Hardware = HP Dual AMD 64, 6Gbyte DDR-2 Ram, . Btw, Gnome 2 is the most stable Desktop - I tried them all. Also it does some Power Management whereas the others are hopeless at Hard Disk preservation. I suggest specializing in setting up with Gnome 2, as Fuduntu have done.

Nothing is perfect however (yet) and final installation can have issues with screen resolution (post # 7 still applies) http://forums.pcbsd.org/showthread.php?t=7887 Also VMWARE Tools do not install properly (see step 7) so a lot of extra work is needed to compile things. http://www.rhyous.com/2012/05/09/installing-vmware-tools-on-freebsd-9 -without-xorg/ Also VMWARE video driver does not get installed with VMWARE tools and more work is needed to get it http://www.rhyous.com/2010/01/29/how-to-install-the-vmware-video-card- driver-on-a-freebsd-8-guest-virtual-machine/ I propose that everything needed to support VMWARE player gets figured out in advance and included in iso installation file and have some GUI widget available to enable VMWARE support once PC-BSD is installed.

The canned answer is usually with regard to kernel memory allocation (mem_wire, mem_active, mem_inactive, and mem_cache) for optimal performance and that unused memory is wasted memory. The complaint is not due to kernel maximizing memory allocation, it's with respect to mem_active memory being considerably higher than if a ufs or a Linux ext3 or 4 file system were being used. ZFS has an inherently higher mem_active memory utilization due to the arc algorithm and sha256 checksum operations on hard drive reads. Increasing the zfs cache puts a higher load on mem_active and decreasing zfs cache puts a higher load on the processor, even at idle. This may lead to a certain level of dissatisfaction with regard to system performance and give PCBSD a poor reputation. I've noticed 100mb of mem_active being used on a headless PCBSD/zfs installation, which is far higher than a normal 20mb with ufs. I've also witnessed 50% processor utilization when the system is idle with a core2quad processor. The proponents of zfs stipulate the data integrity advantage it has with respect to ufs, ext4, and fat32. However, the end user may not recognize this, especially with poor performance. A compromise could be if the default pcbsd installation utilized ufs for system partitions and zfs for user data (/usr and /home). -- Ticket URL: PC-BSD PC-BSD Project Management From trac at pcbsd.org Tue Feb 19 04:54:36 2013 From: trac at pcbsd.org (PC-BSD) Date: Tue, 19 Feb 2013 12:54:36 -0000 Subject: [Trac-bugs] [PC-BSD Trac] #705: Qt apps shall respect desktop style settings Message-ID: <045.217662bc67429e7c390b05487df06b58@pcbsd.org> #705: Qt apps shall respect desktop style settings --------------------------+------------------------------------ Reporter: mjollnirpaul | Type: System Enhancement Status: new | Priority: trivial Milestone: | Component: System Configuration Version: | Keywords: KDE, Qt, desktop style --------------------------+------------------------------------ The Qt style is set fixed to QtCurve.

You guessed right that I'm not going to update myself and rely on your update-manager. At least I could update the packages shown by portaudit (incl. flashplayer but except for ruby). Plus, these two ports (the docs) are not tender maintained, they depend on chinese fonts (that fail by default and take a lot of attention, seems to be a typical chinese mannerism) although I found no single chinese character in dem docs, man. => Current PC-BSD 9.x shall include a "Release Notes.txt" on the desktop and the root fs telling about the hacking of FreeBSD sites in late 2012 and what to do to use packages & ports. => PC-BSD update-manager shall use portaudit internally and update affected ports -- if possible, use packages, if not, try unattended port build. => A local-only MTA shall be enabled by default. Ok the target audience of PC-BSD is the average non-nerd user, I agree w/ that completely, but I guess in realitas it is mostly people already familiar w/ Unix coming from Linux, Solaris, or Mac, or other nerds coming from Windows who like to try BSD. So IMHO the freebsd-doc shall be easily available as packages (not ports) in all translations (split, not all bundled). Then I started EasyPBI to supply the two ports as PBI. It failed. Several questions rise up: I already have a freebsd base system (mostly unchanged) and the src tree (unchanged), why does EasyPBI download them again? => It would be enough to create a snapshot after/during install (I did that manually from within an xterm when the installer prompted me to reboot) that's a good idea anyway because newbies can quickly start over w/ a fresh system after they shot themselfes in the foot. => The same hold true after downloading & extracting src tree. I already built and installed these ports, why does EasyPBI do all that again? It's PDFs and text files that can be copied! => EasyPBI needs to look of what type and where the target files are. How can I make architecture-independant packages and PBIs? I'm definetely not going to do that again for all architectures, it's only data that can be copied. All we have to agree upon is that all-arch packages/PBIs be delivered in network byte order and what to do w/ that is left up to the arch. Then it builds a pre-desktop default system: compile Perl, CUPS, Xorg, TeX etc. pp. -- hopefully this will be saved for the next PBI (why do I need CUPS to create a PDF? I thought GS is enough for that). => If EasyPBI does not save reasonable common stages: it should ask me where to save stages that I might need again and let me start there next time. => Common stages e.g. X11, KDE, LXDE,... could be availabe for download. Maybe that's all a GIGO-problem, because the ports Makefiles are not maintained well (stale or broken dependencies as above, from copy&paste blindly). After all, it takes hours (days?) to make a PBI of files that should be available for download as precompiled package(s), which is not anyone's mistake, but the status quo.

I've had several crashes :/ so I'd like to have crashdumps to append to bug reports. I consider this "major" (or even "critical" or "blocker") 'cause like it is now one can not resolve other issues on a ZFS-only setup. I remember crashdumps on a ZVOL were possible on OpenSolaris/Solaris Express and OpenIndiana, so ZFS should be able to handle that. I didn't find a solution on the net, just some pages stating it's not possible to dump on a ZVOL on FreeBSD. -- Ticket URL: PC-BSD PC-BSD Project Management From trac at pcbsd.org Fri Feb 22 00:41:00 2013 From: trac at pcbsd.org (PC-BSD) Date: Fri, 22 Feb 2013 08:41:00 -0000 Subject: [Trac-bugs] [PC-BSD Trac] #708: 9.1 is out but TRAC still makes us file under 'Version' 9.1-RC3 Message-ID: <036.801c972667e4c95f2ffecf6db141a894@pcbsd.org> #708: 9.1 is out but TRAC still makes us file under 'Version' 9.1-RC3 ---------------------+--------------------------- Reporter: gja | Type: System Defect Status: new | Priority: trivial Milestone: 9.1 | Component: Misc Version: 9.1-RC3 | Keywords: ---------------------+--------------------------- See summary line.
