I've been scouring the internet trying to find whether NetBSD can utilise a pi camera , then I can work on getting a mpeg server running to use it. 🤞
Thanks for your help with this.

Thanks for the reply , I've been using the IRC channel quite a bit these last couple of weeks, it's been quite nice using IRC again.
@washbear@mastodon.sdf.org
Thank you for the information, this is inspiring to know that so many people are working on NetBSD. I wasn't aware that foundation had a full time employee, is the aim to work towards more full time employees if the donations continue to increase?
@tfb@bsd.cafe @netbsd@mastodon.sdf.org
Annoyingly , I found it in the end, can't believe I overlooked the community page.....DOH!
but thank you for the reply all the same
ooh, I didn't know there were other forums, where are these forums?
do you mind if I ask how many developers work on NetBSD? of course I understand all the work on NetBSD is by volunteers this is all just about better understanding the team that create this amazing OS.
edit: I managed to find the forums, I somehow managed to overlook the community page on the website
Is it possible to get a Raspberry pi camera working with the BSD's ?
Out of interest, why does NetBSD not have a forum to get help and ask questions?

I think I need to look at how to add a relay to increase my reach and number of known domains, but otherwise I have similar numbers to yourself which is interesting.
This is pretty interesting, I just happen to have a kobo clara e-reader sitting here not doing much at all. I may have to look into what I can do with it.
@hund@fosstodon.org I should have explained this is a VPN to my home network so I can use services on my LAN and maintain them when remote. I always use a VPN for searching. But I don't need this VPN active unless I need to access the LAN
@hund@fosstodon.org I managed to set it up with WG and hostname.wg0 , the native option on OpenBSD but then it's always on.
So I think I will go the wg-quick route , like I have on my other machines.
Hi fediverse,
what's the best way to setup Wireguard on a OpenBSD laptop (client) where I only need the VPN occasionally ? i.e I want to be able to enable and disable when needed.
Funny you should say that , last night I felt adventurous and installed OpenBSD on another drive as you mentioned , it went without a hitch. I wasn't so lucky with fuguita , I couldn't get passed the allocated memory question. I will test more today, but I think I will I stall OpenBSD on my SSD, it seemed a lot more stable that FreeBSD on this laptop.
#openbsd
I do wish NetBSD was more desktop oriented. (More browsers , DE's etc) Hopefully with a couple more years it will be a competitor to FreeBSD.
I'm enjoying tinkering with FreeBSD on my Thinkpad though.
I think I will have to sale my system76 pangolin 12, its been relegated to the cupboard.
