The Valuable News weekly series is dedicated to provide summary about news, articles and other interesting stuff mostly but not always related to the UNIX/BSD/Linux systems. Whenever I stumble upon something worth mentioning on the Internet I just put it here.Today the amount information that we get using various information streams is at massive overload. Thus one needs to focus only on what is important without the need to grep(1) the Internet everyday. Hence the idea of providing such information ‘bulk’ as I already do that grep(1).The Usual Suspects section at the end is permanent and have links to other sites with interesting UNIX/BSD/Linux news.Past releases are available at the dedicated NEWS page.UNIXNew x11/bosd FreeBSD Tool for OSD.https://linkedin.com/posts/dteske_freebsd-ugcPost-7510131549820932096-CPKb/Gaffer 1.7.3.0 Now Runs Natively on FreeBSD.https://linkedin.com/posts/martin-f-473405380_freebsd-gafferhq-imageengine-ugcPost-7509773139636092928-0RtV/HardenedBSD 08-09/2026 Status Report.https://hardenedbsd.org/article/shawn-webb/2026-09-27/hardenedbsd-august-september-2026-status-reportFreeBSD Git Weekly: 2026-09-21 to 2026-09-27.https://freebsd-git-weekly.tarsnap.net/2026-09-21.htmlFreeBSD Kernel Frame Unwinding with DWARF CFI.https://minsoo.io/p/freebsd-kernel-frame-unwinding-withFreeBSD Foundationals: rc.d – Service Framework That Fits in Your Head.https://blog.hofstede.it/freebsd-foundationals-rcd-the-service-framework-that-fits-in-your-head/FreeBSD Running on Apple M6 (T8152).https://linkedin.com/pulse/freebsd-apple-m6-t8152-bring-up-update-alan-kong-d4w5c/The mergedotpkg is FreeBSD pkg(8) Companion for Merging .pkgnew/.pkgsave Files.https://github.com/0mp/mergedotpkgInstall Ubuntu 26.04 Server in OpenBSD vmm(4) VM.https://rsadowski.de/posts/2026/vmm-ubuntu26-setup/FreeBSD pkg(8) Plugin to Create ZFS Boot Environment Before Each Package Install/Upgrade/Remove.https://github.com/usenix17/pkg-be-pluginMocka Desktop from GhostBSD Aims to Rewrite and Replace Each MATE Component.https://mocka-desktop.org/FreeBSD Journal 2026 Q3.https://freebsdfoundation.org/our-work/journal/browser-based-edition/production-deployments/GhostBSD Replaces MATE with New Mocka Desktop.https://itsfoss.com/news/ghostbsd-new-desktop/FreeBSD Foundation 2026/07 Laptop Update.https://freebsdfoundation.github.io/proj-laptop/monthly-updates/2026-07FreeBSD Release Cycles and Enterprise Requirements: Why LTS Matters.https://klarasystems.com/articles/freebsd-release-cycles-enterprise-requirements-lts/Reduce Duration of Solaris SRU Updates Using JomaSoft VDCF.https://jomasoftmarcel.blogspot.com/2026/09/reduce-duration-of-solaris-sru-updates.htmlNew Features in Solaris 11.4 SRU95.https://jomasoftmarcel.blogspot.com/2026/09/new-features-in-solaris-114-sru95.htmlApache Module Integrating blocklistd(8) on FreeBSD.https://github.com/koron/mod_blocklistWhat About ThinkCentre M710q/M720q and *BSD.https://tumfatig.net/2026/what-about-thinkcentre-m710q-m720q-and-bsd/Every Read on QNX is Message.https://vivianvoss.net/blog/qnx-message-passingWhat is New in httpd(8)/relayd(8) on OpenBSD.https://rsadowski.de/posts/2026/update-relayd-and-httpd/Running Elixir Graphics and ML Tools on FreeBSD.https://people.freebsd.org/~dch/posts/2026-05-25-elixir-graphics-ml/SmartOS: Illumos Way of Thinking About Servers.https://it-notes.dragas.net/2026/09/28/smartos-the-illumos-way-of-thinking-about-servers/GSoC 2026 Reports: Improving and Stabilizing Racoon 2 IKE Daemon in NetBSD.https://blog.netbsd.org/tnf/entry/gsoc2026_racoon2Self Hosted HTTP Tunnels with SSH and Nginx.https://vincent.bernat.ch/en/blog/2026-http-over-sshFreeBSD with AMD Radeon RX 9060 XT.https://reddit.com/r/freebsd/comments/1wujkv8/freebsd_9060_xt/Cron for Laptops vdcron 0.9 Now Survives Shutdowns/Power Loss/Reboots.https://vincentdelft.be/post/post_20261003OpenBSD Devs Reject uutils Coreutils Port over Licensing and Compatibility Concerns.https://news.lavx.hu/article/openbsd-developers-reject-uutils-coreutils-port-over-licensing-and-compatibility-concernsUNIX/Audio/VideoWorry Free Upgrades with ZFS Boot Environments on FreeBSD.https://youtube.com/watch?v=MfHCXEzRfaoI Switched from Linux to FreeBSD.
