Here is what you want to do.
Install port for raspberry-pi firmware. This will bring you pre-compiled DTB overlays that you copy to your /boot/dtb/overlays/ directory.
Then when you add them to config.txt they will work.
You need these overlay:
i2c-rtc
i2c0 (Or appropriate bus the device is on...
Thank you for the tip! Much appreciated :)
I am going to read about it and see if i can offer something helpful. I am not really a hands-off kind of guy. I usually have to have the system to find resolutions. I have spent most of my computing life hands-on. I once repaired a Nintendo-DS...
Don't read about the RaspBerry. I stopped using it. I have exchanged it with the Radxa Zero 3W because it's more low profile and it is powerful as the Raspberry Pi 4 (Broadcom BCM2711, Quad core Cortex-A72 (ARM v8) 64-bit SoC @ 1.8GHz VS Quad‑core Arm® Cortex®‑A55 (Armv8) 64‑bit @ 1.6GHz).
well, then, that is strange. You should be able to use Firefox or Chrome.
I want to read more about your system:

Hello John.
The RockPro Rk3399 has 4 Gb of RAM and the Radxa Zero 3W board that I have bought has the same amount of memory. Where did u read "512 MB" of ram ? Yes,I have also used the Raspberry Pi Zero 2W with 512 Mb of ram,but I don't use it anymore because its not enough powerful.
Hi,
I have a device using Pi compute module 4, which seems to have a real time clock
(documentation shows pcf85063a). I wonder if there are any means to get it
working with FreeBSD ? I spent yesterday trying to figure this out and adding
things like
dtparam=i2c_vc=on...
Tried FreeBSD-14.3-RC1-arm64-aarch64-RPI.img on the Raspberry Pi Zero 2, attached an USB Hub, an Asus 8188EUS Wifi Dongle, a Behringer USB Audio and there was sound.
Now I want the thing listen for sound input on the Bluetooth dongle. Anybody got a tutorial for this?
(for Linux there are...
Perhaps the better USB dongle I have used is the EW-7711UAN.
It uses the if_run(4) driver which is very stable and effectively is just one big antenna. That said, I would recommend using a USB extension cable to pull it slightly further away from the shielding of your metal PC tower itself...
By a quick glance at the product's webpage you linked and I'm not mistaken, this keyboard doesn't provide BT at all, but SPI Interface
So besides the webpage also says it's sold out, and you need to find out if it's available elswhere or anyhow, you better look for if FreeBSD and your board...
I highly doubt that you will be able to wear out a USBed Optane on a Raspberry Pi even if you tried.
It really depends on what you are doing. A firewall can be run readonly trivially (in fact I ran one on write-protected a 1.44 MB floppy). A mailserver I would estimate is not a wise thing to...
I have been running Raspberry Pis as firewalls for 10 years. Older ones boot from SD. But they have all run from a USB stick. In 20 Pi years, I have had one USB stick die. Admittedly they run Raspbian, not FreeBSD.
I think the answer depends on the duty cycle and quality of the storage...
In general: configure your system to run from memory (it boots from flash, copies stuff needed into RAM, then runs from there), do not write log files to the flash device (if you need logs, look into remote syslog).
Raspberry Pi 1's was / are notorious when it comes to eating SD / microSD...
What are some best practices for configuring a FreeBSD host to maximize media lifetimes when using inexpensive flash devices for the base system & pkgs?
Backstory: for about 4 years, I've run 2 Raspberry Pis and 1 amd64 machine using (at different times on different machines) UFS-formatted USB...
The public documentation has been updated to include this known issue and this can now be closed as a result

Thank you all!
My main server at home has been running FreeBSD since about 2012. It has been installed 3 times: Once the original installation. Then I decided to reinstall it since I had skipped all upgrades from roughly version 8 to version 11, and a full install was going to be more efficient than a long...
