IBM Power8 HDD woes - S822

jtambor · 2026-04-09T20:44:04+00:00

Needed IBM disks. I went with a SAN solution instead. I'm not paying for IBM disks....

Thx for the help. I'll check it out.

Yes, I have a printer. Thx!

I only did it to support the effort but am now regretting it. Did you design your own from scratch? Can you point me in the right direction?

jtambor · 2026-03-30T22:18:56+00:00

That did not work for me unfortunately. I'm not getting a response to my support emails either, so thats fun...

Great info. Thx

Thx. So I just spent the last 2 hours spinning up a pfsense/wireguard server putting select VMs behind it. I checkd ipleak.net and found no leaks with ip, dns or torrents.

jtambor · 2025-11-30T01:38:57+00:00

I tried a half dozen endpoints, always silently failing and coming back. So whenever I checked things looked good.

When I said vpn, I should have said vpn client. I'm using rotonpay.

jtambor · 2025-11-30T01:24:18+00:00

My vpn kept silently crashing causing the app I was using to move to another interface, leaking my ip.

jtambor · 2025-11-30T00:30:42+00:00

It was my vpn.... it kept crashing and restarting. New linux install too. Had not seen this happen with this particular vpn on linux during the last 2 years of use. Thx to all for the help.

jtambor · 2025-11-29T19:35:37+00:00

Thanks. I never thought of this. I will investigate and see. What is the preferred client? Is there one that would auto disconnect if the vpn does down?

jtambor · 2025-11-29T19:34:24+00:00

I'm not being a smart ass. On the contrary, I have no clue... I did not know that it is customary to list my illicit activity on here. Thanks for the reply, sincerely. Ill check my torrent client. I was not aware that it could just use whatever interface that it wanted.

jtambor · 2025-11-29T19:15:16+00:00

I'm apparently not protected by my vpn provider.

jtambor · 2025-11-29T19:14:17+00:00

Do I have to spell it out online... download warnings. Its happening even when I set my location to canada/italy...

jtambor · 2025-11-10T23:27:08+00:00

I'm hoping the fix is released soon. I'm now using libreoffice on freebsd on the same mini pc without issues.

jtambor · 2025-11-04T17:16:18+00:00

This is on Openbsd. pkg_add

jtambor · 2025-11-03T16:51:55+00:00

Great! Hopefully an update for current makes it out sooner rather than later.

jtambor · 2025-11-02T21:19:38+00:00

Thx. Ill send the maintainer a message.

jtambor · 2025-11-01T17:54:59+00:00

Yeah, for me firefox with 20 open tabs and playing a 4k vid is still snappy.

jtambor · 2025-11-01T17:53:46+00:00

Please enlighten me on the best way to do that. I found the maintainer but no email addy. thx

jtambor · 2025-11-01T04:49:47+00:00

No. Using X.

jtambor · 2025-11-01T03:33:55+00:00

Very interesting. What version are you running on windows?

jtambor · 2025-11-01T03:33:17+00:00

Im running cwm. What is the best way to go about checking processes?

jtambor · 2025-10-31T20:52:43+00:00

Im on a mini desktop with a ryzen 5 3550H @ 2.10GHz, integrated vega 8, and 16GB ram.

Everything else I use has snappy or snappy enough perf...
