Telescope [0] is an emacs/w3m-inspired browser for the "small internet"that supports Gemini, Gopher and Finger. Written in C, with a privsep design in mind.Telescope is now available on pkgsrc (below you can see it running on SPARC). With a few patches [1], it builds and runs fine on Solaris too.Thanks @op@bsd.network, @thomasadam@bsd.network, and others for contributing to this project.[0] https://telescope-browser.org/[1] https://github.com/NetBSD/pkgsrc/tree/trunk/net/telescope/patches#gemini #smolweb #pkgsrc #solaris #netbsd #sparc

The last BSDCan 2025 video has been posted!Adventures in porting a Wayland Compositor to NetBSD and OpenBSD by Jeff Frascahttps://youtu.be/oo_8gnWQ4xoI'm typing this in my Xuake Wayland Compositor on OpenBSD.I started this journey on the NetBSD 9.99.x branch and ended up having to dig into the guts of wscons, mesa, libdrm, the kernel drm subsystem, the AMDGPU driver and more. I have a couple of very small, but hard fought patches in the NetBSD kernel. It's not over yet, either. I still have a few bugs around the compositor shutdown process and a lot of integration work to be able to hope to have other people try this out.Topics to cover in the talk include (but are not limited to): History of Wayland and other background info How your graphics stack and driver is organized and actually works The actual porting journey on both NetBSD and OpenBSD A Demo! I should be able to show it running Current status, future workFor more information, please visit:https://www.bsdcan.org/2025/- and -https://www.bsdcan.org/2025/timetable/timetable-Adventures-in-porting.html#wayland #runbsd #openbsd #netbsd
