Its impact is that any user can trigger a kernel panic, without needing root permissions. http://blog.netbsd.org/tnf/entry/netbsd_11_0_rc4_available#comment-1778745907000 Tomolok 2026-05-14T08:05:07+00:00 2026-05-14T08:05:07+00:00 I really look forward to the final release and want to give it a try. http://blog.netbsd.org/tnf/entry/netbsd_11_0_rc4_available#comment-1778655434000 bbartlomiej 2026-05-13T06:57:14+00:00 2026-05-13T06:57:14+00:00 Good news! We're getting closer to final release. Well done! http://blog.netbsd.org/tnf/entry/gsoc2026_welcome_contributors#comment-1778001225000 Jay 2026-05-05T17:13:45+00:00 2026-05-05T17:13:45+00:00 Best of luck. Looking forward to results of projects. http://blog.netbsd.org/tnf/entry/netbsd_11_0_rc1_available#comment-1771432385000 John 2026-02-18T16:33:05+00:00 2026-02-18T16:33:05+00:00 A few days ago I upgraded from 10.1 to 11.0 RC1 amd64 via sysupdate(8). All worked well. I find 11.0 RC1 just as stable as 10.1 with one noticeable improvement. On 10.1, once in a while when streaming Audio, the stream would slowdown and get garbled for a few seconds. On RC1, I have been streaming Audio via mplayer since I upgraded for hours on end, no issues so far. From my experience on 11.0 RC1, I would suggest people should upgrade to it so NetBSD 11.0 will be a awesome release. Great work NetBSD Team! http://blog.netbsd.org/tnf/entry/gsoc2025_bubblewrap_sandboxing#comment-1764657185000 Genrikh 2025-12-02T06:33:05+00:00 2025-12-02T06:33:05+00:00 I totally agree with you, Henrik. http://blog.netbsd.org/tnf/entry/gsoc2025_bubblewrap_sandboxing#comment-1763156419000 Henrik Johansson 2025-11-14T21:40:19+00:00 2025-11-14T21:40:19+00:00 What about the RUMP-kernel project? Couldn´t that encompass the requirements you addressed? I can´t see any benefits of getting more dependent of the Linux community. I would be willing to help pursuing a better NetBSD. Kind Regards, Henrik. http://blog.netbsd.org/tnf/entry/netbsd_11_0_release_process#comment-1756999367000 zilog 2025-09-04T15:22:47+00:00 2025-09-04T15:22:47+00:00 Noticed the native mailx MUA has gotten quite unstable, dumping core when doing basic things like changing mail directories. Hope it gets some love before 11 gets released. http://blog.netbsd.org/tnf/entry/gsoc2025_asynchronous_i_o_framework#comment-1756590247000 bbartlomiej 2025-08-30T21:44:07+00:00 2025-08-30T21:44:07+00:00 A very interesting update.

I thought it was dead and buried by now, what with git and, to an extent, svn. Glad to see that things are (finally) moving away from CVS. I'm now off to look for a git repo (as much as git grinds my gears it's probably one of the most efficient and functional SCCS out there.) http://blog.netbsd.org/tnf/entry/new_build_cluster_speeds_up#comment-1755026661000 Jeff Rizzo 2025-08-12T19:24:21+00:00 2025-08-12T19:24:21+00:00 Thanks for the walkthrough! I'm happy to hear the build system has been updated to deal with Mercurial and git, and look forward to the shortened build times. http://blog.netbsd.org/tnf/entry/netbsd_11_0_release_process#comment-1754511304000 yum 2025-08-06T20:15:04+00:00 2025-08-06T20:15:04+00:00 Seems to install and run okay on a Gnome Boxes VM. Might be good to make the tests set available in the beta. http://blog.netbsd.org/tnf/entry/netbsd_11_0_release_process#comment-1754480142000 bbartlomiej 2025-08-06T11:35:42+00:00 2025-08-06T11:35:42+00:00 Great news! Hoping for GPU drivers update since it's very hard nowadays to try and use NetBSD as a daily driver. Are there plans to sync WiFi updates with what FreeBSD developed recently? Supporting higher speeds etc. http://blog.netbsd.org/tnf/entry/new_build_cluster_speeds_up#comment-1754479716000 bbartlomiej 2025-08-06T11:28:36+00:00 2025-08-06T11:28:36+00:00 Great news! Are these build servers doing the pkgsrc package bulk builds as well? Should we expect speed improvements with providing binary packages for new pkgsrc releases? http://blog.netbsd.org/tnf/entry/netbsd_11_0_release_process#comment-1754425431000 pacman 2025-08-05T20:23:51+00:00 2025-08-05T20:23:51+00:00 on version 9 my old graphics Radeon HD 7700 cape verde with amdgpu drivers worked great no problems but there was no sound on hdmi, on version 10 the same graphics amdgpu drivers don't work just a red line shows up on the left side of the screen and everything freezes and crashes but the sound works perfectly fine on hdmi, version 11 I tried to install on uefi but the hardware doesn't recognize the installation at all I managed to install mbr but it can't be installed pkgin and pkgsrc for now it's obvious that version 11 is still in beta phase, I hope I'll have better luck with the graphics drivers in the next release, good luck http://blog.netbsd.org/tnf/entry/netbsd_11_0_release_process#comment-1754322061000 naguam 2025-08-04T15:41:01+00:00 2025-08-04T15:41:01+00:00 Hi, Thanks for the PVH support. I was wondering though if the INSTALL document for evppc will be updated with the wii instructions.

And also let's get into closer discussions (probably @xorg-devel) on the exact relation (and workflows) of your fork vs. upstream, e.g. how to you actually create/maintain your makefiles ? http://blog.netbsd.org/tnf/entry/netbsd_10_0_available#comment-1716090340000 Mike 2024-05-19T03:45:40+00:00 2024-05-19T03:45:40+00:00 Thank you! With this release my laptop (HP Elitebook 8440p with nvidia video card) goes from largely working but with no X acceleration to fully supported with acceleration. I am extremely happy with this release. http://blog.netbsd.org/tnf/entry/x_org_on_netbsd_the#comment-1715270705000 Constantine 2024-05-09T16:05:05+00:00 2024-05-09T16:05:05+00:00 > not X.Org's based on GNU autotools Huh?

Together, bitmap and xmh are around 300 kilobytes." Please don't break backward compatibility. http://blog.netbsd.org/tnf/entry/x_org_on_netbsd_the#comment-1714982011000 genv 2024-05-06T07:53:31+00:00 2024-05-06T07:53:31+00:00 I liked.
