I've installed XFCE with SDDM. I'm using a UK 105 keymap which is working correctly in terminal, desktop apps like notes etc. By correctly I mean " is shift + 2 and the @ is at the mid-right of the keyboard. However, this mapping isn't being applied to the initial login screen (but is to lock...

This week was my 3rd try of using FreeBSD (as desktop system). Today I am nearly at the point where I give up. I already tested FreeBSD for a longer time some months ago (and another time about 1-2 years ago). Now I use FreeBSD 12.1 (-RELEASE). The 2 times when I used FreeBSD I had the exact...

Good day, I first tried with a nvidia gtx 1050 and the standard nvidia-driver package. But I had a lot of tearing so I wanted to adjust the settings via nvidia-settings. The problem with the standard driver is that nvidia-settings do not open. So then I tried to configure the driver via a...
