2 unusual facts about Gentoo/FreeBSD


Gentoo

Gentoo/FreeBSD, a port of Gentoo Linux to the FreeBSD kernel and userland

Gentoo/FreeBSD

Gentoo/FreeBSD is a Unix-like operating system developed by Gentoo Linux developers in order to bring Gentoo Linux design, structure, and tools such as Portage and the Gentoo Linux base layout to the FreeBSD operating system.


Architecture of OS X

At the same conference, Apple announced that the Mach side of the kernel had been updated with sources from version 3 of the Mach kernel and the BSD side of the kernel had been updated with sources from the FreeBSD, NetBSD and OpenBSD projects.

Computer Systems Research Group

The group was disbanded in 1995, though not without leaving a legacy - 386BSD, NetBSD, FreeBSD and OpenBSD are all based on the 4.4BSD-Lite distribution and continue to play an important role in the open-source UNIX community today, including dictating the style of C programming used via KNF in the style man page.

Danger from the Deep

The game is Multi-platform, meaning that any user can play it on a machine running FreeBSD, a recent version of Mac OS X, a GNU/Linux distribution, or a supported version of Microsoft Windows, along with 256 MB of RAM and a processor with 1 GHz of speed.

Dru Lavigne

She has been using FreeBSD since 1996, has authored several BSD books, and spent over 10 years developing training materials and providing training on the administration of FreeBSD systems.

Exult

The current graphics code uses the SDL library, which has led to Exult being ported for Mac OS, Microsoft Windows, Sharp Zaurus, Microsoft Windows Mobile, and other operating systems aside from the original "free *NIX" platforms (such as FreeBSD and GNU/Linux).

FreeNAS

The 8.0 reimplementation of FreeNAS moved the project from a m0n0BSD/m0n0wall/PHP-based architecture to one based on FreeBSD's NanoBSD embedded build system, the Python programming language, the Django CMS and the dōjō toolkit JavaScript toolkit.

GEOM

GEOM was developed for the FreeBSD Project by Poul-Henning Kamp and NAI Labs, the Security Research Division of Network Associates, Inc. under DARPA/SPAWAR contract N66001-01-C-8035 ("CBOSS"), as part of the DARPA CHATS research program.

Geom

GEOM, a modular disk framework used in FreeBSD 5.0 and newer.

George Varghese

Among his contributions to network algorithmics are Deficit Round Robin (co-invented with M. Shreedhar), a scheduling algorithm that is widely used in routers, and timing wheels (with Tony Lauck), an algorithm for fast timers that is used as the basis of fast timers in Linux and FreeBSD.

HDHomeRun

The HDHomeRun can also be controlled via a command-line application which is available for Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, FreeBSD, and other POSIX-compliant operating systems.

IBM mainframe

There are software-based emulators for the System/370, System/390, and System z hardware, including FLEX-ES and the freely available Hercules emulator which runs under Linux, FreeBSD, Solaris, Mac OS X and Microsoft Windows.

Leopard seal

Larger leopard seals probably switch from krill to more substantial prey, including king, adelie, rockhopper, gentoo, emperor penguins and chinstraps, and less frequently, other seals, such as crabeater seal.

Lions Rump

Other birds nesting at the site in smaller numbers include Gentoo and Chinstrap Penguins, Southern Giant Petrels, Cape Petrels, Wilson's and Black-bellied Storm Petrels, Snowy Sheathbills, South Polar and Brown Skuas, Kelp Gulls and Antarctic Terns.

Object Pascal

Currently, FPC can generate code for x86, x86-64, PowerPC, SPARC, and ARM processors, and for various operating systems, including Microsoft Windows, Linux, FreeBSD, Mac OS and Mac OS X (with an Xcode integration kit).

OpenArena

Thanks to third-party efforts, it is also available from the default repositories of a number of Linux distributions, including Debian, Fedora, Gentoo, Mandriva, Arch and Ubuntu.

OtherOS

OtherOS was a feature available in early versions of the PlayStation 3 video game console that allowed other operating systems, such as Linux or FreeBSD, to be installed on the system.

Pandora FMS

They run on any type of platform (Microsoft, AIX, Solaris, Linux, IPSO, Mac OS or FreeBSD), also SAP, because the agents can communicate with the Pandora FMS Servers to send data in XML using SSH, FTP, NFS, Tentacle (protocol) or any data transfer means.

PlayStation 4 system software

The PlayStation 4 runs "Orbis OS", which is based on a branch of FreeBSD.

Tilly Kettle

He also painted non-portraits, including Dancing Girls (Blacks) in 1772 and a suttee scene in 1776 entitled, The ceremony of a gentoo woman taking leave of her relations and distributing her jewels prior to ascending the funeral pyre of her deceased husband. In 1770 Kettle painted a half-length portrait of 'Sir' Levett Hanson, a peripatetic writer on European knighthood and chivalry originally from Yorkshire.

Ummah.com

Although Ummah.com has been through several changes of webserver hardware, it has, due to the insistence of its system administrator, always used FreeBSD as its operating system.

Walnut Creek CDROM

Walnut Creek developed a close relationship with the FreeBSD Unix-like open source operating system project from its inception in 1993.

Warmux

The teams are styled after the mascots of various free software projects, such as GNU, Linux, FreeBSD, KDE, GIMP, OpenOffice.org, Firefox, Thunderbird, Suse, Workrave, NuFW, SPIP, and Bugzilla.
