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...

Greetings. I have a Dell E6510 laptop that I just upgraded from FreeBSD 12.1-RELEASE to 12.2-RELEASE. This laptop has a 2-button touchpad and a 3-button point stick. Prior to the upgrade I had been using a combination of moused (console) and sysmouse (Xorg) to achieve middle button scrolling...

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...

Hi Folks, I'm getting beaten a couple months by my nvidia card. I got beaten to put it working in FreeBSD 11 and now in FreeBSD 12. I've installed system and immediately updated via freebsd-update to 12.1-RELEASE-p5 and no success to put nvidia working ever since. I already tried all...

I've started with FreeBSD (12.1). this is an attempt to learn more about FreeBSD. First I installed qemu (qemu: stable 5.0.0 (bottled)) with homebrew on my macbook pro (mid 2014 - os: Mojave). I used the following commands for the installation: qemu-img create -f qcow2 freebsd.qcow2 40G...

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...

Hi, I am using Acer Aspire E1 V5we2 and trying to configure my touchpad. My touchpad is not recognised by the system, as it shows PS/2 generic. I tried to use synaptics but it still not working. I can't even copy paste here the code text so will send wgetpaste links. my...

After a fresh FreeBSD installation, I was trying to run blender in the laptop and I noticed that just grabbing the default cube and trying to rotate around it performs really slow and sluggy/jumpy instead of making a smooth movement. This are the pkgs installed: #installed pkgs...

Hello everyone. I'm having some trouble trying to add a scroll bar into a Xterm terminal. I tried to find on the internet some way to get it work but I can't because I can't find the right config file, most of the tutorials that I saw were just for Arch Linux and as I can see Xorg is a little...

I'm not sure if this is an issue for security but I was wondering if is it possible to run urxvt and/or xorg as an unpreviliged user that isn't root. Starting urxvt opens an another instance by root killing of which effects nothing at all.
