Ever wondered why and how #OpenBSD was ported to the Sharp #zaurus ?

Well, having never had any Zaurus, I am overqualified to tell that story!

As the story is quite long, it will span two parts. You can enjoy the first part of the OpenBSD/zaurus story, where I discuss the unseen part of the iceberg.

Stay tuned for the second part next wednesday!

It isn't the prettiest of OpenBSD ports, but if you wanted to install snac2 on -current for self-hosting, it works. I will do a setup guide later:

the work I did on perfecting desktop-installer on OpenBSD has been merged.

This additionally adds gnome and kde support too.

also there's a wip installer for the script for the time being while its not in the official openbsd ports collection.

I plan on re-submitting the ports to ports@ once the ports tree unlocks again.

Have a #ThinkPad running #OpenBSD and #Xfce look like #macOS: I stole someone else's font rendering trick and lost time doing this.

Because #FreshPorts' search is now limited to logged in users, I hacked together an alternative: https://tmb.codeberg.page/portssearch/
