    Pipewire instead of pulseaudio

    Pipewire doesn't suck and is 100% compatible with pulseaudio (at least on Linux), so yeah that's the goal. To have something that doesn't suck and isn't a load of work to maintain.

    Pipewire instead of pulseaudio

    Has anyone made the switch to pipewire-pulse and removed pulseaudio completely? If so, how did you do it? I've never managed to figure out the mechanism for triggering these services on FreeBSD, and everything written about either of them assume they are managed by systemd. I tried just...

    Audio on 14-CURRENT

    Yeah, the audio on the displayport output (AMD Navi) works alright as well on -CURRENT. I think it's just a quirk of this card.

    Audio on 14-CURRENT

    No I did not try a release version much because, as I said in my original message, the GPU doesn’t work there, so no display. The instant earsplitting feedback was definitely present on release, that’s all I can say.

    Audio on 14-CURRENT

    What is the state of audio on 14-current? I've got a couple of sound devices, but no luck. I get the impression audio had a bit of an overhaul in 14 - can't remember where I read that. The first is 'CA0132 Sound Core3D [Sound Blaster Recon3D / Z-Series / Sound BlasterX AE-5 Plus]' which snd_hda...

    Is there a Graphics Card compatibility list for FreeBSD 13.2 somewhere

    I eventually got it working. I have a Navi 23 (aka 6600XT aka DIMGREY CAVEFISH) and it does work with sway on 14-CURRENT with drm-515-kmod: markspc kernel: [drm] initializing kernel modesetting (DIMGREY_CAVEFISH 0x1002:0x73FF 0x1458:0x2338 0xC1).

    Is there a Graphics Card compatibility list for FreeBSD 13.2 somewhere

    I’m particularly interested in AMD cards, but it seems like it would be a generally useful thing to have.

    Kerberized NFSv4 -> NFS over TLS on 13.0

    I also found this gssd issue the hard way. Is there any reason this can't be merged?

    JNA for FreeBSD aarch64

    The port installs jars to /usr/local/share/java/classes/jna.jar and /usr/local/share/java/classes/jna-platform.jar (I am the maintainer). I have only recently taken on maintaining it, so I haven't looked into why it doesn't work on armv6/v7. aarch64 is absolutely fine though as far as I know. Mark

    FreeBSD Desktop for RK3399 SBC

    Just tried your helios64 image, seems to work pretty well. Did you build that off the FreeBSD source tree or is there more to it? I'm guessing you have some custom config / device trees - if so is it visible somewhere? I'm kinda curious as to how you built this.

    Is there any smooth way to update CURRENT system for embedded?

    There was some talk of aarch64 becoming tier 1 for FreeBSD 13. I'm not sure what the outcome was though.

    ZFS native encryption, resizing, bleaching

    Linux now has encryption - seems like we're falling behind on ZFS support as well

    Docker-freebsd won't work

    It's in ports, so it really should work. There's a patch to be merged here you could try: https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=211565

    Solved evdev under FreeBSD 11

    Yeah, if I apply that patch as well, I see a device node under /dev/input when attaching a USB mouse. My keyboard (atkbd0) and touchpad (psm0) don't seem to do anything though. Understand it's early days - it's interesting to play with this stuff though.

    Solved evdev under FreeBSD 11

    Tried that, I've patched it into my 11.0-RC3 kernel and it applied cleanly (I guess we haven't diverged much yet). Everything boots alright but I was expecting to see something in /dev/input though, so far nothing. Maybe it's just not going to work on 11.0-RC3

    Solved evdev under FreeBSD 11

    Does it build as a module? If not, any plans for this to happen?

    Thinkpad X1 Carbon (1st gen)

    I've been trying out FreeBSD 11-BETA1 on my Thinkpad X1 Carbon (1st gen) IvyBridge, and it seems to work pretty well. I have power management and suspend (unless I load tpm.ko), the wifi all works and accelerated graphics seem pretty good. I'm pretty impressed.

    Flash plugin not working with 64bit Linux

    I would like to make use of the 64bit Linux emulation by installing the _64 versions of the Linux ports. However, this seems to break the nspluginwrapper which supports the flash plugin. Why was the decision taken to make 64bit and 32bit Linux ports mutually exclusive? It's certainly possible to...

    Solved Very long boot times on new servers

    I never really bought that explanation, as during an upgrade I took the disks from an i7 920 system (~5 years old, relatively slow) and transplanted them into a Skylake system and that was the first time I hit this issue. The old system booted about the same speed ZFS or no ZFS but the newer...

    Solved Very long boot times on new servers

    Are you using UEFI or legacy? There's a problem with the bootloader on legacy with ZFS that causes very slow boot until the kernel takes over. It's not a problem with UEFI.
