|
+--[ Finally, I switched over to OpenBSD |
|
+ |
|
+ |
|
+I have been wanting to move my daily driver over to one of the BSDs for |
|
+some time now, I have written in the past about my experience's with |
|
+FreeBSD [0]. At the time, the limiting factor was the hardware I was |
|
+running and the issues that caused. However, now that I have the mini-pc |
|
+new hardware I thought this would a good week to try it out. One evening |
|
+I took the plunge, backed up $HOME on my current Alpine Linux setup and |
|
+installed OpenBSD. It was super simple, and I was up and running in |
|
+a shell within 15 minutes. |
|
+ |
|
+ |
|
+Everything seemed to work well at first, but I later discovered my sound |
|
+wasn't working. A look over the man pages and OpenBSD FAQ, I soon |
|
+figured out that I needed to change the default audio device to snd/1. |
|
+Once that was done, I went ahead and installed X and all the other |
|
+tooling I use. |
|
+ |
|
+ |
|
+One of the big changes I made was the switch back to Xorg from Wayland, |
|
+I really didn't want to mess about with getting that running in OpenBSD, |
|
+and I am really not fussed about one over the other. I still had my old |
|
+Makefiles for building the standard X suite I used for years, dwm, dmenu |
|
+and st, it only needed a few tweaks to config.mk, and they all complied |
|
+without issue [1]. I changed from the ASH shell to the default KSH |
|
+shell, again, nothing really needed to change. |
|
+ |
|
+ |
|
+I really like the package management, for Alpine Linux I had my own |
|
+bootstrap script [2] to get me up and running. On OpenBSD I am nearly |
|
+done right off the bat with just one command, a list of user packages |
|
+really to install. On Linux I feel that this would be including a heap |
|
+of system libraries and dependencies. |
