<p>Today is day 14 (pushing day 15 at this hour), and things are looking very good. Today, I got word from the <a class="reference external" href="http://www.pcbsd.org">PCBSD Project</a> that a patch which I submitted to fix the <a class="reference external" href="http://www.duckland.org/posts/201407freebsd-switch.html">issue with the WiFi NIC</a>. Well, I got notice today that <a class="reference external" href="https://bugs.freenas.org/issues/7330">PCBSD Bug #7330</a> has been resolved, and I tested on the R810. It works!</p>
|
|
<p>Now, I just need to get a few things configured here first, like snapshots, backups, and porting my SDCARD reading scripts over to FreeBSD, and I should be good.</p>
|
|
<p>Then, fun things like configure & use IPv6. I have two FreeBSD VSP servers to test with...it will be fun!</p>

<p>It is the 10th day of the month, and I am 10 days in trying to use FreeBSD as my daily non-work driver. How is it going?</p>
|
|
<p>Well, for the most part, well. I can spend most of my personal work-flow on the FreeBSD laptop with no issues. There are a couple of things I have not moved over yet, and those relate to my photo work-flow. The main application, <a class="reference external" href="http://aftershotpro.com">AfterShotPro</a> is installed and working (see <a class="reference external" href="posts/201403freebsd-challenge-day-4-6.html">my previous desciption</a> of installing in), however, I have not moved over the scripts I use in the flow. I believe they will just come over, but I have not had a chance to test them.</p>
|
|
<p>I was using <a class="reference external" href="http://chromium.org">Chromium</a>, but any Flash site did not work. I need to revisit this at some point, but for now I went back to Firefox, and it is working create.</p>
|
|
<p>The only major thing right now I need to figure out is how FreeBSD deals with sound. I can hear things from the speakers just fine, but I need to figure out how to enable and use an USB headset. Not the biggest, but still. I also need to either install & configure Skype, or find a replacement video chat to use with the wife while traveling that works under FreeBSD. I like the second option better, but I have not really had the time to do the research.</p>
|
|
<p>And, the new site generating suite I am using works under FreeBSD. I wrote and posted this from the FreeBSD laptop.</p>
|
|
<p>More updates soon.</p>

<p>As 2014 draws to a close, I look back at the year.</p>
|
|
<p>Overall, it was a good year. The family staid reasonably health (just a case of the flu which every one of us caught).</p>
|
|
<p>Work slowed down a bit after only three trips, and the last one was in June, but I did get to spend two weeks in London which was cool. While the work has been not what I really want to be doing, it has been interesting, and next year promises to be very interesting. I have no clue if travel is in the cards or not, but I will keep the camera handy.</p>
|
|
<p>In the coming year, I plan to focus on health, photography, and technology. I want to get back to taking photos every day, and to bring the quality back up to art level over the snapshots and historical documentation that I have been doing.</p>
|
|
<p>Also, I want to revisit the 30 Day FreeBSD challenge again in January. I have the old HP R810 running <a class="reference external" href="http://www.pcbsd.org">PCBSD 10.1</a> already set up that I have been using for a couple of days working the kinks out of it, so I think I can do it this time. Normal caveat applies...I have a work laptop which dual boots Windows 8.1 and Fedora 21 for my work stuff. The home stuff should work nicely on the laptop.</p>
|
|
<p>Just to prove things, this post was written under FreeBSD.</p>
|
|
<p>I also need to fix up my virtual host farm. I have one too many, and do not need it, but of course, it is the one with the main mail and other services, so I need to hurry up and migrate things off of it.</p>
|
|
<p>I hope your 2015 is a great year.</p>

<p>Well, 2014 is drawing to a close. For the most part, it has been a good year with the family, but time is always in short supply. I am going to try to focus a bit more on my photography, as well as technology. We shall see.</p>
|
|
<p>Happy new year, and make it a safe one.</p>

<p>I was having some issues with my word press site, so I decided to look around for something else. I found a static-site generator, and I think I like it. So, I flipped this site over to it. I might flip the reset RealSoonNow(TM).</p>
