Do you happen to have a link to the XPC port? I just did a cursory search but couldn't find anything.

It's in Kip Macy's work branch: https://github.com/kmacy/NextBSD /lib/lib[asl, dispatch, launch, mach, osxsupport, xpc]. The XPC stuff is mostly Jakub Klama's work, I think.

Kip is allowed to use a computer in prison? Or was he recently released?

Sandy Bridge actually, i7 2600k. I have an ATI card too, I might try that. Wasn't too sure how well those work on FreeBSD.

I would go with nvidia - they work beautifully on FreeBSD IME.

This part of this thread reminds me of Linux circa 1997.

I moved from FreeBSD on a server two days ago , because it lacked Docker-support. Kicking myself in the foot right now...

Probably a good idea for a production server. From FreeBSD: Docker on FreeBSD should be considered experimental.

Docker in Production should be considered experimental

There ...fixed that for you

I just assumed we would not do docker because we have had jails for so long. In fact, ZFS and jail is docker no? I admit no familiarity with docker (played with LXC years ago and thought - gosh it's like jail! :-)

Docker is not a "jails" clone. (Linux has had "jail" like containers, called LXC, for almost 10 years now.)

I have no idea what happened to "The Landlord" on that front. Story just about died in 2013, there was a brief segment on Good Morning America in 2014 and that was that. He works for iXsystems and even gave out some talks. It's not like I'd bother asking him.

Docker runs on top of lxc if I am not mistaken.

Not anymore - it used to. Still uses Linux namespaces and changeroots.

It used to run on top of lxc but it was replaced by https://github.com/opencontainers/runc if I'm not mistaken.
