I am in process of buying new PC. Something like NAS + workstation (KiCAD, FreeCAD, xterm, zsh, tmux, vim, nothing than my 8-9 year old ThinkPad can't handle). Finally I decided to buy cheap Intel Core i3 4C/8T because of iGPU. AMDs APU are older CPU models, with less cache and with...

Hi! I'm trying to revive an old Asus EEE PC using FreeBSD 12.1 install and so far everything works out of the box and I'm having a lot of fun configuring and setting stuff up! One of the things I'm facing is fitting everything onto a 4GB storage. I've seen a topic about minimal xorg install but...

I've discovered that we have newer packages in terms of graphics such mesa-devel. After updating the system I upgraded the following packages: xorg-minimal drm-devel-kmod libdrm and I installed mesa-devel. Something I feel strange is that xorg-server installs mesa-dri even with mesa-devel...

I am on Dell Inspiron core Duo 2 using FreeBSD 12.1 release. First I did setup synaptics from FreeBSD wiki page but no matter what I did my device was being picked up by libinput as was obvious from Xorg.0.log. Only removing 40-libinput.conf from /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/ removed the libinput...

Hello FreeBSD community, I like to run FreeBSD 12.1 on VMware Fusion on a Mac Mini. The install itself is pretty easy to follow. During the install process I choose a german keyboard layout. When the installation process is finished, and I log in to e.g. XFCE the keyboard layout does not work...
