Re: OT - "Intel Management Engine" security issues

Dave, You might want to take a look at both the Libreboot and Coreboot open source projects. The challenge with the IME is that if you literally disable it, it will shut down the system - and it's code is pretty heavily encrypted. The Coreboot project has had some limited success reverse-engineer

Re: Advices for a new laptop

The X series and the T series Thinkpads work really well. My x220 is outstanding. The only device that isn't supported is the fingerprint reader. Also the mSATA slot is great for a second SSD. I dual boot OpenBSD and Arch (for when I need a Virtual Machine) and just use the F12 key at boot to sel

Re: Suspend on Macbook Pro Retina (MacbookPro 11,1)

Performance is great from my perspective. No noticeable lag, etc. The wifi will probably never get a driver in OpenBSD though (only a closed source driver in Linux) and power management is flakey (even in Linux). Just keep that in mind. Thanks, Bryan > On Dec 6, 2015, at 5:06 PM, Артур Истомин

Christian, I am willing to help. My stable of machines includes: * SunBlade 100 (sparc64) * HP C3700 (hppa) * SGI O2 (sgi) * AlphaStation 500/400 (alpha) * VAXstation 3100 (VAX) - I can improve this if necessary. I have found a VAXstation 4000 that is more capable on eBay * Mac Mini G4 (macppc) *

Depends on the age. If it is basically "all screen" and indicates G5 on the back then macppc. If not a G5, then amd64. If it is a crt or the one that looks like a desk lamp, macppc. Thanks, Bryan > On Mar 6, 2016, at 8:52 AM, Chris Bennett > wrote: > > A friend found one outside at an apartment

Hi misc@ I'm trying to get an XVR-100 working in my SunBlade 2500 workstation and I'm hitting a roadblock I can't overcome. Essentially what happens is, the system boots. Then when, on my AMD64 machines the display changes resolution for the rest of the boot process, I get some sort of crash.
