I had a hard time getting into it too, but I got to it. So I will paste it in.

The number of participants stayed the same. There were 2722 more tournament games than last year, the proportion of all games played went up 6.6%. 9 fewer people ascended 13 fewer games, with a higher ratio of 2.9 asc/player. There was only 1 ascension in Fourk, Dyna and 1.3d. 81% of games were scummed, 58% of all scums that month, basically split 2:1 between 31PwnMoat (again) and hecatonheir (last year it was dedal). Medusa was killed 87 more times, again mostly by Valkyries, but also dwarven Anachrononauts. 3.7 was played even more, dnh gained 7 ranks (+3.9%p), Un lost 4th place to HackEM (-4.9%p), Splice stayed in 3rd place, Spork/Fourk were played least, but 1.3d shot up 4 ranks from last place. On the australian hardfought server 8x more games were played.

And a comment from https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/u/joes

Nice, I have NetBSD v10.0 on my Thinkpad T420, and issues I had with an external monitor has been fixed plus is is more zippy.

The only remaining issue I have with 10.0 is when the system is under very heavy load, Xorg can get temporarily corrupted after about 1 hour of the job running. I create PR 58217 for that issue.

In reality, I think very few people will ever run into this problem, but hoping for a 10.x fix some day :)

I saw this a while ago, very nice. What was the end result, was it upgraded to a newer NetBSD ?

I decided to move to gemini on SDF. Data is far easier to maintain and you can use any editor to add/change files.

In case you do not know what I am referring to:

Disabling nouveau did not fix the issue, but was a good idea, thanks.

Maybe time for another thread but I am still researching a bit, but the W541 has this for Video:

• Device-1: Intel 4th Gen Core Processor Integrated Graphics driver: i915 v: kernel
• Device-2: NVIDIA GK107GLM [Quadro K1100M],

I think per: https://man.netbsd.org/nouveau.4 that should be supported. If I cannot find any more info I may create a PR for 10-BETA.

Well, the AMD333 (PII) now has NetBSD 9.3. It is working very well and works rather will and zippy considering its age.

I discovered the CDROM Drive was causing issues. I replaced it with one from a junk IBM PC a relative was tossing out. All good :)

Right now, 10.0 BETA on my spare T420 Laptop. I have 7.02 on an old AMD333 system and trying to get 9.3 on it. It is hard going because there what I believe a motherboard issue with the CDROM Drive. And SDF :)

I hope to use it on my main system, a W541 Thinkpad. It works, but the Nvidia GPU (it as duel GPU) heats up a lot. I am not sure how to even diagnose this, but as the BETA persists I will keep checking to see if the issue stops. The W541 does not allow one to disable Nvidia :(
