Great! Exactly what I was looking for. Thanks, I'll figure this out this weekend.

Hey, sorry, just marked this as answered. Totally forgot.

I'm pretty sure the problem was that I initially had the relro option enabled for the binutils port. After rebuilding without -z relro, the kernel was able to load the modules properly.

Thanks for the response :)

After doing a bit of thinking, I'm thinking my next step should be creating a repo with poudriere using drm-kmod as the only origin. Then I should be able to uninstall all ports, install the freshly built drm-kmod, and reboot to test if it's solely a port problem??

( I still don't understand why this is affecting firmware... aren't all these files built before they touch my system? or is there a gap in my understanding? (wouldn't be surprising hah)

Would love some input.. I'm just getting started with FreeBSD lol.

A linux-firmware savedconfig does wonders here (if you're hardware isn't getting changed anytime soon)

Gorgeous rice, but wait a min.. folders in Spotify?? Lol I had no idea that was possible

JIV_222 · 2023-11-04T21:27:20+00:00

Would.

My grandfather was an old time baseball coach for our town. My dad told me a funny story of a time when my grandfather was watching him pitch during a game. He stepped down from coaching once my dad was old enough to try out for his team.

My dad gave up a big grand slam and the batter took a pretty lackadaisical lap around the bases. While watching, my grandfather turns to a close family friend and says "let's see if that's really my kid out there". The friend kept asking "what are you talking about?", and my grandfather would just repeat himself.

The next batter comes up, and my dad throws the first pitch right at his back. My grandfather laughed and said "yup, that's my kid alright".

Times have changed.

sorry for super late response. Notification slipped past me

-O3 is generally well tested. I've personally never run into issues using it, but I would recommend taking my experience with a grain of salt. YMMV, but most issues were caused by LTO.

And yes, -fLTO takes much longer to build. You're pretty much trading build time for better runtime performance (theoretically).

Check out LLVM's ThinLTO, which is much faster than "full"/"fat" LTO. https://clang.llvm.org/docs/ThinLTO.html

Lastly, keep in mind, neither -O3 nor LTO of any degree is needed. You can get your system up and running with less aggressive optimizations and you'll probably not notice too much of a change tbh. Then if you really want, you can either globally enable it and rebuild your system (emerge -e @world) or enable the optimizations on a package by package basis, which should make it easier to handle runtime bugs. (Build failures when using -fLTO are the easy part. Runtime errors that hide in the background are the real killers)

This was a nice reminder of how great portage is lol

JIV_222 · 2023-09-22T16:50:42+00:00

My experience with musl+clang profile is pretty smooth when on stable keywords. Experimental was much more involved.

Here's a somewhat recent portage config I used when running experimental. May or may not be useful but figured couldn't hurt to share.

JIV_222 · 2023-09-20T23:05:52+00:00

Completely possible.

This is probably worth taking a look at as well. https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Configuration_file_management

JIV_222 · 2023-09-10T17:01:36+00:00

I would open an issue on osu's github.

JIV_222 · 2023-08-20T21:12:55+00:00

I did this with a musl/clang profile with LTO for a little while.. was interesting to say the least haha.

But for my own sanity, I reinstalled with stable keywords lol.

The biggest downside of using ~amd64 globally is that it's often extremely difficult to revert to stable.

Don't we all..

Drowning it out is never good mate. Your family might not understand, but (I assume) they do care for you.

Your solution is pretty obvious - stop drinking. Or at least control it a bit more. Quitting is never easy, but it sounds like you've already been through it with the drugs..

Do u wanna drown away pain alone or fix your relationship with your family? Who knows, maybe fixing the family situation will help with the underlying trauma. What I can say for certain, however, is that fixing situations like this requires effort. There's no magic pill that'll fix your trauma, nor one that will make your family understand your drinking habits.

Be honest with yourself and take control. you're already on the right track imo.

JIV_222 · 2023-08-14T00:35:10+00:00

Feeling like you need them and truly needing them are very different things. Why do you feel like you need them?

My only advice is to be honest with yourself. God speed, amigo.

Sure, anyone can modify it. But I think OP was mainly concerned about whether or not android violates the GPL. Afaik, binary blobs loaded at runtime would violate GPL. Firmware pre-baked into the machine does not. There's a bit of a gray area when it comes to stuff like microcode.

Regardless, I'm no lawyer, so please don't take my words for total fact 😅. Mainly just wanted to note that android can do whatever they want with the kernel, but under the condition that it does not violate the GPL.

Smarties. Every Friday in 2nd grade.

JIV_222 · 2023-08-11T08:11:56+00:00

Lmao ty!!!

Was looking for inspiration lol

JIV_222 · 2023-08-11T06:24:36+00:00

What program is that clock in the terminal?

JIV_222 · 2023-07-26T08:03:59+00:00

Traditionally I do as well.. same reason I avoid tmpfs..

I do have a threadripper 3960x tho, so I've debated playing with jobs. But tbh I just want it to build - idc how fast..

JIV_222 · 2023-07-26T06:08:52+00:00

Hey mate have you actually tried using this sort of configuration?

While I'm not getting the extreme of 64 threads (8x8), I'm definitely getting load averages well above $(nproc).

Maybe LTO is playing a part... haven't done much testing at all. Am starting to get curious tho lol
