Good morning, I have a stable FreeBSD 13.0 and I am very happy with my operating system that I met in October 2020 when my PC was very slow because the computer's battery was (dead) going into Powersave mode (at the time I didn't know it existed, my computer was very slow and I looked for a more efficient system. Some time later, I found out that I could change the processor governor and the computer become fast again, but I was fall in love with FreeBSD, that's uses Powerd). I looked for other operating system and saw one that was very interesting, FreeBSD, although people don't use it as the day-to-day operating system and youtube videos mostly just install on virtual machines. It is amazing to build your own operating system in every detail. Everyone who knows my operating system is delighted: it has an XFCE4 environment, it has XScreensaver, free games, a printer, folders and videos open faster than the blink of an eye, mount a USB stick, ext4 external disk and even the shared Iphone folders (I couldn't get the pictures folder).
But something bothers me a lot, which is that the audio doesn't work properly, in this case, only the HDMI audio, which works, but the audio is in slow motion, I've been trying to fix it for months. I know that there are several very cheap alternatives like buying a speaker via cable or even Bluetooth, or, even buying devices that combine HDMI and audio. I am unemployed, no matter how cheap I can't spend on anything. When I worked, I was a teacher (chemistry) and to transport a speaker for 40 people to listen quality audio is difficult because we already carry a lot of material.
As an alternative to unemployment I would like very much to format computers (R$ 100.00 = US$ 20.00 each), but I want to install only FreeBSD because of the impressive speed of this system that never crashes, but it is difficult to sell something that sin in any detail. Without Netflix you can still try to convince, but without perfect audio, I missed 6 opportunities because of this defect.
In short: The audio works well, except HDMI (/dev/dsp0) which works in slow motion. My sound card is Broadwell. The best driver I tested was pulse audio (songs in flac format are in slow motion with other drivers even for /dev/dsp3 (internal) or /dev/dsp4 (headphones)).
There is my
There is my /etc/rc.conf:
And finally, there is my /etc/sysctl.conf:
I would like to thank the FreeBSD community, which is small but very welcoming.
