Did you actually install without the x-sets?jmcunx wrote: ↑Wed Jul 10, 2024 12:23 pm I am doing 1989, it is around the time I got a UNIX system at work. I will set up OpenBSD on an old Laptop to emulate that old system.
With that said, once it starts I will have no access to any GUI applications since I never even new X existed until a few years later.

Re: 2024 plans
For OpenBSD it is recommended to install X, which I did. I set this up after a friend gave me that system a while ago. She was throwing it out, so I grabbed it from her.
But I will not start xdm, without xdm X is really unusable under OpenBSD.

Re: 2024 plans
Good idea, but wait for it, my only printer is a dot matrix

But will remember that should I ever get a real printer
