Notes Some time in December 2024 / January 2025 the Colmi ring stopped charging, but in March 2025 when I was thinking of sending the ring to e-waste I discovered that if I pushed the magnetic charger on to the ring it started charging again, so the ring is back collecting data.

Using the ground as well as TX and RX on the serial headers improved the reliability of the serial. Finally installed OpenBSD on NanoPi R5S LTS.

Janet Janet is a functional and imperative programming language. It is a LISP language. Running on OpenBSD was straight forward: git clone git@github.com:janet-lang/janet.git gmake gmake test gmake repl Added the following target to the Makefile to check which compiler was used: port:fred ~/code/git/janet> grep -A2 test-cc Makefile test-cc: $(CC) -v which showed that clang was used: port:fred ~/code/git/janet> gmake test-cc cc -v OpenBSD clang version 7.0.1 (tags/RELEASE_701/final) (based on LLVM 7.0.1) Target: amd64-unknown-openbsd6.5 Thread model: posix InstalledDir: /usr/bin Then I noticed that Janet was already ported to OpenBSD - but it was at v0.4.1 rather than v0.5.0 which was the stable version, so I mailed a diff to ports@openbsd.org.

Cinema: Minions An excellent film! Email Disclaimers Do Email Disclaimers Really Work? : an interesting article on the American Bar Assoiciation website, explaining the email disclaimers are not worth the electrons they waste. An interesting misconception that it raises is that adding a disclaimer cost nothing - that it is rubbish - you are adding an enourmous amount of unneccessary storage requirement as that message will be duplicated by the number of times your organisation sends eamils - yes storage is relatively cheap but why are you filling it up and backing up this useless collection of electrons?

Portege R830-13C Bought a refurbished Toshiba Portege R830-13C laptop, on first boot I pressed F2 and set the BIOS to boot from CD, I then put in my OpenBSD 5.3 CD, and installed OpenBSD 5.3. I then downloaded and installed OpenBSD 5.4-beta. The plan is to have this laptop dual booting between OpenBSD and Debian. Installed debian in the first partition of the disk. Getting GRUB to play ball was a nightmare - the documentation did not mention the solution: menuentry 'OpenBSD' { set root=(hd0,openbsd1) chainloader +1 boot } This needs to go in the 40_cutom file,then run: update-grub to update the appropriate grub files.

Upgrade to 5.3-beta Had a kernel panic in 5.2-current on Sparc64 - so upgraded to 5.3 for testing. But had a second kernel panic that seemed to damage rc.subr, causing "rc_cmd: not found" errors and also the tail section of netstart, causing route errors as the route command was not finishing correctly.

Muppetry Updated my Thinkpad X41 Laptop to OpenBSD 5.0-beta, used sysmerge to update /etc and then when I tried to start X it failed with: (EE) No devices detected. Fatal server error: no screens found This was due to OpenBSD not allowing X to access the memory and was fixed by uncommenting the sysctl.conf 'machdep.allowaperture=' setting, and was the first line in the Xorg.0.log file: (WW) checkDevMem: failed to open /dev/xf86 and /dev/mem (Operation not permitted) Check that you have set 'machdep.allowaperture=1' in /etc/sysctl.conf and reboot your machine refer to xf86(4) for details

Three men are in a hot-air balloon. Soon, they find themselves lost in a canyon somewhere. One of the three men says, “I’ve got an idea. We can call for help in this canyon and the echo will carry our voices to the end of the canyon. Someone’s bound to hear us by then!” So he leans over the basket and screams out, “Helllloooooo! Where are we?” (They hear the echo several times). Fifteen minutes later, they hear this echoing voice: “Helllloooooo! You’re lost!” The shouter comments, “That must have been a mathematician.” Puzzled, his friends asks, “Why do you say that?” “For three reasons. First, he took a long time to answer, second, he was absolutely correct, and, third, his answer was absolutely useless.” Source halting problem joke
