Maybe someone else out there does. While I’ve longed to do the equivalent of set -o vi in mdb, I don’t have any plans to do that. Maybe someone else out there does.

Thanks! I'm looking forward to using it, once I build the latest illumos sources. Are there any plans for vim key-bindings? Or customizable key-bindings for mdb? This looks very, very useful. Thanks!

If one was able to bring support for something like KVM to something like the Niagara line, it would only be able to run SPARC guests.

]]> Comment on Trying to use DTrace in Debian/kFreeBSD by rm http://dtrace.org/blogs/rm/2010/10/29/trying-to-use-dtrace-in-debiankfreebsd/#comment-5 rm Tue, 08 Feb 2011 08:09:02 +0000 http://dtrace.org/blogs/rm/?p=21#comment-5 Unfortunately, without porting of the userland libdtrace(3LIB) and dtrace(1M) it won't be as useful. At some point I'm hoping to take a fresh look at the question of the port of those pieces, but moving to glibc from the BSD libc can be quite the undertaking.

They can probably be added to the stock kfreebsd in Debian. See http://www.debian.org/Bugs/Reporting Please could you file a bug report describing the changes that need to be done in the kernel?
