cynicalsecurity :cm_2:<p>Another Lenovo ThinkPad T14s Gen 6 (Qualcomm X1e) update…</p><p>So, I had promised I was going to "try" BSD and, well, the results have been rather surprising. First of all <a href="https://bsd.network/tags/OpenBSD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>OpenBSD</span></a> installs perfectly, trivially and supports most of what I need except the WiFi card (I'm a :flan_greybeard:​ so there's always a UTP port close enough that I can pull a 30m CAT 5 to a USB Ethernet dongle and, yes, Hell &amp; Safety would not approve).</p><p>I have not tried <a href="https://bsd.network/tags/FreeBSD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>FreeBSD</span></a> yet because I went down the <a href="https://bsd.network/tags/OpenBSD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>OpenBSD</span></a> rabbit hole… I installed -current so that the battery is recognised, I have been messing around finding a window manager that I like ("goodness me, am I difficult or what?" has been the main discovery)¹ but I have mostly got something which is usable compared to Linux, and stable (Ubuntu managed to nuke the FDE keys every time I ran apt upgrade and it touched the kernel rebuilding initrd, etc.).</p><p>Now, the bad news:</p><p>* WiFi doesn't work on OpenBSD, it is a qwz(4) which is commented out in the config at the mo'<br>* the graphics … so, it was bad under Windows, it was bad under Linux, it is actually a little better under OpenBSD but… this is the 2800x1800 OLED (or something) screen and I am getting 1360x855. The problem is that, like on the other operating systems, the moment you run anything "heavy" (e.g. a browser), the machine gets very hot and the battery starts being eaten up. The GPU must be really bad.<br>* the battery… it is the size of an MBP and, honestly, it is unbelievable how little the battery lasts under any OS,. I hardly get more than 5hrs with the clock throttled to 710MHz!<br>* see above, using anything graphics-intensive on battery is… treacle, just treacle.<br>* this thing runs hot under any OS, far far too hot.</p><p>Otherwise, it isn't a bad machine... :flan_molotov:</p><p>__<br>¹ before you all recommend something: please read the next few paragraphs regarding graphics quality. Also, I have very simple, yet irritating, requirements: virtual screens, ideally dynamic, as I run full-screen apps… I have normally open: several full-screen terminals with their own tabs, several full-screen browsers with their tabs, email and Emacs. Nothing else matters™, seriously.</p>

Sam<p>Ok so, please explain it like I’m five, <a href="https://social.coop/tags/BSD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BSD</span></a> folx. </p><p>Let’s say I wanted to leave ipv4 behind in my homelab, both internal network services and services exposed to the wider internet. Could I decide “I’m an ipv6 guy” and just not mess with ipv4 and NAT etc?</p><p>For context, I am a generalist that occasionally cosplays as a sysadmin and don’t really understand either standards in a complete way. </p><p><a href="https://social.coop/tags/FreeBSD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>FreeBSD</span></a> <a href="https://social.coop/tags/OpenBSD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>OpenBSD</span></a> <a href="https://social.coop/tags/NetBSD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NetBSD</span></a> <a href="https://social.coop/tags/DragonflyBSD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DragonflyBSD</span></a></p>
