I just got my dual boot ghostbsd + windows set up, fresh on both counts - and immediately went right to your channel.
I actually ended up running into real dependency frustration in my fresh windows install, things that Microsoft prepackaged that had to be replaced and all sorts of nonsense
I wish BSD was more popular
Use it and make your own video, start to spread the word. Even if it’s a short, quick overview.
I love the background music it’s relaxing
Nice Cat reference with the Fish shell.
Love the soundscape atmospheric music.
We'll always be here for you Gary. Great videos that always cheer me up so I'll always be happy to give back.
Love the videos Gary, keep em coming. How about a look at some of the more esoteric features and setups, like HA firewalls with PF+CARP+PFSync, or some real fun with highly available NAS setups with hot-copy replication using CARP+HAST+ZFS. Not many people covering those features, and they are seriously fun to play with.
I wish there were an Arch/BSD on top of Ghost, perhaps? Uses pacman for package management and has access to the AUR + an API to processes PKGBUILDs for BSD’s expectations.
Also, thanks for the Danny John Jules clip! 😃
Gary, would you kindly make some tutorials or just talk about Wayland and Wayfire on FreeBSD? It would be nice to hear you talking about it. Thanks for the great content man.
Is there an equivalent to flatpak or Distrobox for Unix operating systems? For example an easy to use wrapper for Jails or Zones?
No xd
minimal, clean and usable. perfect! any future plans on any desktop oriented bsd to launch with the redently ported KDE 6?
BSD should come with KDE
How to install plasma desktop in ghostbsd... I've been trying for hours now:( it's my first using a bsd operating system
Is a modern Citrix client available?
I've been using GhostBSD on my old Lenovo laptop for years Often using it to stream on Twitch when I'm away from my main PC
Thank you. The only thing that I could say Is that on FreeBSD side something like docker is missing. I am aware of the FreeBSD hypervisor ma has not the same level of simplicity of docker for desktop use cases. For example in Linux world there are projects like distrobox that with docker lat use applications that are not compatible with the current distro with another distro inside a container.
jails?
@@rikhardfsoss yes but you can't achieve the same result I think. Distrobox for example let you execute also graphical apps with also USB and audio redirection.
I was very excited about Project Trident, previously named PC-BSD. It's quite ambitious but you still need quite specific hardware to run it properly - like all other BSDs
Oh wow, apparently they have ditched FreeBSD and are now based on Void Linux. What a turn
Huh, TrueOS is also discontinued. The BSD island looks bleak tbh
I want to dable and learn linux and wanted to know if you have any recomendations for a bootable usb version of linux that is good for the complete beginner ?...keep up the good work
Hello! I'm a long time Linux user who wants to get into BSD. I super duper would like to install Ghost on my Dell netbook, but it won't recognize the interval nvme storage. Help?
Likely due to the lack of drivers. You could always try FreeBSD-CURRENT and it might have the drivers RELEASE and STABLE do not yet have, but that will be a lot buggier. My suggestion is use Linux until you have hardware with compatible drivers for FreeBSD. GhostBSD is strictly based on STABLE iirc, so you don't have the same luxury you do with vanilla FreeBSD.
At first glance I thought the thumbnail was about Bruce Dickinson showing off a BSD distro
You're not wrong.
We all know without watching
#1 feature: no zoom
Oh no, if it has FreeBSD 14 drivers, it means it won't support (yet) the AMD Radeon 7900 XTX
If you don't like all the dependencies, then consider the alternative. They could just put every library needed with every application as a bundle. But then what about libraries which get used by 10, 20, or 50 different apps. Each one of those 50 apps will have that same library included in its bundle. So then you would have to download all 50 bundles which means downloading 50 copies of the same library as part of each bundle. That would be very wasteful and time-consuming. Dependencies allow you to download that library only once, and then use it for all 50 apps.
The way I look at it is you help us so we help you.
