Tried to use this manual about using #wine to launch games in the #FreeBSD #jail

https://pertho.net/2025/11/07/wine-gaming-freebsd-jails/

The manual from @pertho is well-written, I was able to complete all stages without any problems, even though I was too drunk even to use clit mouse on my #Thinkpad — the cursor somehow wouldn't appear where I wanted it to, lol

BTW, it is not necessary to issue the command "xhost +" since it is too insecure. Since all necessary X server sockets and files are accessible from inside jail, the command "xhost local:" is enough. Only local connections (from local machine and from inside jail) will be accepted.

One minor edit — the command to change to owner of the user directory should be issued twice — the second time at the end of Bastillefile, instead the owner of user directory will be the root.

It's not a great photo but you can clearly see I've modified my #ThinkPad boot logo for #FreeBSD .

Merci. Pour les #Thinkpad soyez attentifs, une fois de plus cette MàJ m'a tout simplement désinstallé #tlp => sudo apt install tlp

New #blog post: Why You Need A Stack of Thinkpads

https://rldane.space/why-you-need-a-stack-of-thinkpads.html

Thankful to Nanoraptor/Dana (will tag her elsewhere) for inadvertently reminding me to write this down. XD

Welp, I'm back in the saddle, I guess? Writing this gave me some nummy dopamine, so thank God for that!!!
Also, man is imgur ever a dreadful webshite. Just horrifying to use. XD

I really need a laptop. Anyone have access to surplus, or lightly used equipment left after upgrades, or something in your closet you'd like to see someone use? I can pay a few hundred.
I had a #Thinkpad X1 for years and it ran #Fedora pretty well. At this point that particular model would be a few generations behind, so I am hoping for more ram and something newer for development purposes. I would love a gaming laptop so I could do rendering, but not picky.
Please help.

sudden sound glitching after rebooting the laptop like a software update borked the linux sound interface. hope a kid didn't drop it. #thinkPad

So maybe someone on fedi can help me here, but after updating my #ThinkPad #T14 #BIOS to 1.17, #fedora can no longer #suspend normally and freezes and requires a hard power-off each time. I tried some #grub stuff, many suggested fixes I found on the internet and a newer kernel (6.18 instead of 6.17) but nothing worked. So I think it may be a #Lenovo issue.

Thanks!

#zed remote dev + waypipe is a really cool combination that makes hacking on Rust GUI applications from my 10 y/o #Thinkpad actually feasible. All the building and running happens on my desktop over tailscale. #linux

This obviously can be adapted to any editor or just run from a terminal. Here's the code for the zed task if anyone is interested: https://github.com/Fingel/gelly/commit/d83b56e85c914b9bdd7372f3af6685295ee313ca

Why did nobody tell me earlier about the middle-mouse-button + keyboard-nipple = mousewheel-like-scrolling feature on thinkpads?
Anyways, i'll use that extensively from now on!

@rubenwardy
ThinkPad? My ThinkPad from 2019 had the exact same problem, as did my partner's from 2016. Once you have access to small screwdrivers, open the laptop, disconnect the battery, wait a minute, press the reset button, reconnect the battery, and start the laptop. After a few seconds into the boot process, connect the power cable.
#ThinkPad

Well, that worked!

There is only one problem with this laptop. At this point, I'm just ganna consider this 'Expected Behavior'. #WhiskersWednesday #CatsOfMastodon #KittensOfMastodon #FediCats #FediKittens #ThinkPad
