Well, now when I wake up from sleep I still have to do the same thing, ctrl+alt+F1, ctrl+alt+F9. Then X11 works. But after waking from sleep, I have a blinking cursor and my mouse cursor. So weird. <a href="/tags/freebsd/" rel="tag">#freebsd</a> <a href="/tags/dpms/" rel="tag">#dpms</a><br>

Having toyed around for a while in <a href="/tags/qemu/" rel="tag">#QEMU</a> <a href="/tags/vm/" rel="tag">#VM</a> boxes with <a href="/tags/freebsd/" rel="tag">#FreeBSD</a>, <a href="/tags/openbsd/" rel="tag">#OpenBSD</a> and <a href="/tags/netbsd/" rel="tag">#NetBSD</a> as well. I found that <a href="/tags/gpart/" rel="tag">#gpart</a> in FreeBSD is intuitive and easy to use for disk partition manipulation, followed by gpt in NetBSD. For me, powerful and flexible as fdisk is, it has always been mysteriously difficult and fighting.<br><a href="/tags/usebsd/" rel="tag">#UseBSD</a> <a href="/tags/runbsd/" rel="tag">#RUNBSD</a> <a href="/tags/bsd/" rel="tag">#BSD</a> <a href="/tags/foss/" rel="tag">#FOSS</a> <a href="/tags/unix/" rel="tag">#UNIX</a><br>

And oh boy all terms seem so foreign to me as a long time <a href="/tags/linux/" rel="tag">#Linux</a> user. The same disk is called ada0 with a partition like ada0p2 in <a href="/tags/freebsd/" rel="tag">#FreeBSD</a>, will be called something like sd0 with sd0h in <a href="/tags/openbsd/" rel="tag">#OpenBSD</a>, ld0 and dk2 in <a href="/tags/netbsd/" rel="tag">#NetBSD</a> . Then to experiment, all the <a href="/tags/dkctl/" rel="tag">#dkctl</a>, <a href="/tags/disklabel/" rel="tag">#disklabel</a> and <a href="/tags/fdisk/" rel="tag">#fdisk</a> commands are like blue and red wires on a dynamite you have to get rid of 😱. Linux distros nowadays seem to be going to the <a href="/tags/gdisk/" rel="tag">#gdisk</a> way which feels very much like <a href="/tags/gpart/" rel="tag">#gpart</a> in FreeBSD.<br><a href="/tags/usebsd/" rel="tag">#UseBSD</a> <a href="/tags/runbsd/" rel="tag">#RUNBSD</a> <a href="/tags/bsd/" rel="tag">#BSD</a> <a href="/tags/foss/" rel="tag">#FOSS</a> <a href="/tags/unix/" rel="tag">#UNIX</a> <a href="/tags/linux/" rel="tag">#Linux</a><br>

<p>Does anyone have a complete guide to how vnodes and vnode paging works on FreeBSD?</p><p>D&amp;I doesn&#x27;t tie things together very nicely, and the man pages are lacking a lot of the interplay between the vnops and what various functions do.</p><p>I&#x27;m getting closer to understanding things, but it seems like there&#x27;s a lot of interplay between _read, _bmap, _read_pgcacche, _getpages, and _strategy, and helper functions like bread/cluster_read that isn&#x27;t well described (or split between all the different man pages in ways that aren&#x27;t obvious to me).</p><p><a href="/tags/freebsd/" rel="tag">#FreeBSD</a></p>

<p>After spending the last few days playing around with Linux distros from 1997-98 and comparing them to <a href="/tags/freebsd/" rel="tag">#FreeBSD</a> 2.2.8, I&#x27;m left wondering why exactly it was Linux that ended up winning that round of the OS wars when it seems like FreeBSD was so much better?
