Hello FreeBSD forums! (I'm actually new here, my name is Katheryn, nice to meet ya) I have set up FreeBSD 14.1 on my Latitude D630 that uses the nVidia Quadro FX 360M video chipset. I have successfully dual booted it with Windows XP and Vista, and got Xfce4 working. However, I have not had...

I'm using 14.1-RELEASE-p6 on my gen 4 E14 (exact model 21E300E4VN), so far my Elantech trackpoint has been acting a bit crazy. The cursor would occasionally jumps around (or teleports), both when nothing is pressed with it and when I try to scroll. At first I thought it was because of...

Does anybody have ideas or suggestions on how to troubleshoot this? After upgrading to 13.4-p7 (and doing a pkg upgrade -f to reinstall all ports), it appears I can no longer start any non-linear video editor. I'm getting a weird error that alludes some issues with the X server, but all other...

Hey! I'm new to freeBSD and, after a little fight with xorg and the nvidia drivers I finally got to launch xorg and configure all of my monitors. Except for one. The laptop's internal monitor, and it's not even listed with % xrandr : Screen 0: minimum 8 x 8, current 3840 x 1080, maximum 32767...

DISCLAIMER: Introduction My starting point is: Installing FreeBSD 14.0-RELEASE on Dell OptiPlex Micro (GPT+ZFS on NVMe SSD) and proceed similarly as I've done for Intel UHD Graphics 630 on FreeBSD 14.0-RELEASE, but this time the problem is to make a good use of an Intel UHD Graphics 730 which...

Hey everyone, I scoured what feels like a million forum posts and followed the handbook to a T but I'm still running into an error. I was hoping someone here could help me out. I'm guessing it has something to do with the integrated graphics from my CPU tripping up X? I'm not sure, hence me...

DISCLAIMER: Introduction My starting point is: Installing FreeBSD 14.0-RELEASE on Dell Vostro (GPT+ZFS on SSD). Next I set to get X11 running on it as well so I perform the usual pkg install xorg and add user to the video group. But before launching X for the very first time it's probably...

I just installed FreeBSD 14.0-RELEASE i386 some days ago on a ThinkPad x201i with i3 (M 330) cpu [integrated graphics]. I did the following as Handbook suggested: - doas pkg install xorg drm-kmod - added kld_list="i915kms" on /etc/rc.conf (also tried absolute path) - ran startx from tty as...

RedHat announced two days ago they are abandoning X.org starting 2025. This is a done deal, there are no ifs. Not a single BSD distribution including FreeBSD, NetBSD or OpenBSD, not a single remaining UNIX including AIX and Solaris has released any statements in regard to that. What are you...

I want to move over to FreeBSD from OpenBSD, but I'm having some problems right at the start. Installation done, network connected, boots. Now I want to install X11. Start off with: pkg install xorg ...and add my user to the video group. Once that's done, check the graphics card: pciconf...

Hello, I'm attempting to run an X server on my laptop running FreeBSD 13.2, but I encounter a blank VT with a cursor in the top left corner when starting it. The system appears to be completely unresponsive when I do this. Power button, CTRL+ALT+F1, etc. don't do anything. I've installed the...

I was reading about the NoMachines NX server, I think its really nice idea ; Compressed & cached X11 sent over an encrypted tunnel (SSH) . And it looks like it also preformed well even on Dial up connections . But sadly it looks like the hole thing just died ? The net/freenx and the...

As far as I know, virtualization tools such as qemu, virtual box are unfortunately not compatible with Wayland compositor. I don't want to use X11.

Hello dear FreeBSD community, I would ask of you a little bit of help in getting Xorg to work with amdgpu. The setup: FreeBSD 14-CURRENT on amd64 architecture (would use RELEASE if it turns out there are no GPU compatibility issues) GPU AMD Radeon RX 6600 (Navi 23) Monitor connected via...

I just tried installing and running imake (xmkmf) and was disappointed when I got (full messages): /usr/local/lib/X11/config/Imake.rules:1674:27: warning: empty character constant [-Winvalid-pp-token] for flag in ${MAKEFLAGS} ''; do \ @@\...

Hi all, What I am looking for is a method to view the screen of another machine via VNC,X11 Forwarding or other method but I want to type on that screen with a keyboard that is physically attached to the machine. Here the setup: Machine 1 with screen1 (and keyboard1) Machine 2 without screen2...

Hello, I am troubleshooting to get a drawing pad to work on FreeBSD. When I uninstall the pkg "libwacom" and do a reboot, the mouse and keyboard does not work at all. https://www.freshports.org/x11/libwacom I have to boot into single user mode and reinstall libwacom and then everything works...

I'm running 12-STABLE on a Thinkpad X1 [1st gen] which has an i5-3330u w/ HD4000 GPU. I've had it installed and running on this machine since 10.3 or so without issue, but I recently noticed VAAPI wasn't being used with mpv anymore. Up until recently [erm, possibly the last few months I...

I can not change the mouse scrolling parameters. I have a Logitech G502 mouse and when I scroll through long websites or PDFs, the scroll delays like 3-5 secs to actually start moving up/down. I would like the scrolling to take place instantly like how it should. The Logitech G502 mouse has a...

Hello, I have plenty of HDMI to USB 3.0 capture cards plugged into FreeBSD. I use "pwcview" to view the USB capture cards, works great, similar to "video4linux2". However I am getting some serious issues with screen monitor resolution being changed by simply accidentally clicking on the...
