Promoted to full admin.

We have now moved to our new server. Our new IP is 178.162.196.136 Primary reason for the move was to make an upgrade. I hope you find us easily and enjoy the Christmas theme we are starting with. We will move back to a more normal maps and theme later on. Also, the emails are activated again. If yo...

I have recently noticed, that the port 27961 has slightly more delay than the 27960.

I recommend connecting to the 27960 port, or use just plain himalia.fi address for the connect.

I will be adding this for testing.

Looks promising.

Symmetric maps get stuck if noone plays them to the end. But we can test it.

Finally I got the PC-BSD installed. Though this is not really very pure installation. I installed FreeBSD 9.2 and then converted it into PC-BSD 9.2. Most parts work but unfortunately, not all. Some problems that there were, FreeBSD pkgng doesn't work. Luckily the PC-BSD one does, and it is a lot nic...

According to the DuckDuckGo, the Himalia website is presented second. Over the Wikipedia article of the real moon of the Jupiter. At least it is indexing stuff right :P

What is paging?

Anyone has any experience of https://duckduckgo.com/?

It doesn't profile users or put in tons of ads, though they don't have similar resources as google or bing to crawl around servers to find pages. I did couple test searches and it seemed to find the stuff I was searching.

Little correction on the misinformation I posted. After some more research about the Optimus, it is unlikely to have been implemented. http://forums.freebsd.org/showthread.php?t=41864 The optimus is practically about 3 things. The intel graphics chip, nVidia graphics chip. And dynamic switch between...

Some update to the thread. Because the PC-BSD developers have updated the installer with some positive progress and it would not be fair to leave the thread like it is. In the new installer they have addressed many of the issues I have mentioned previously. I will first list the good things I notice...

I personally have seen Himalia as international server founded in Finland. I personally don't see any issues with such thinking and neither did other founders of the server. Every server has its roots somewhere. Reviving is welcomed of course. Just please, everyone remember that we are indeed an int...

Continuation to the install PC-BSD (9.2) "failblog". I did new attempts to install the system. However, they failed this time also. With 2 different issues and installing 9.1 is not a possibility. 1. Trying to install the PC-BSD in a way that the boot loader is placed on it's own partition...

Additional note about the install. The DVD must be in the drive when you restart after the install. However, if you have the boot order set to DVD first, it will load the installer again. So it is necessary to change the boot order settings from BIOS. If you would restart without having the DVD in, ...
