i needed a video editor to do a bit of work

all the open source video are rubbish
for example kdenlive doesnt use the gpu

That's so nice! Congrats on getting it working, and well done on sticking with it through all of the challenges to get it working!

The final repo you mentioned that you might create

ill create a git repo for this project
with all the commands and files

that's this one right? https://github.com/NapoleonWils0n/davinci-resolve-freebsd-jail-rocky

I'll give it a go too, some day, following your notes and your repo.

Speaking of which, do you have any hardware recommendations for a desktop computer with Nvidia GPU to run FreeBSD?

All my current FreeBSD hosts are headless servers with no dedicated GPU.

Would be nice to have a FreeBSD desktop computer again. A modern, 2024 strength desktop computer with FreeBSD.

Dell XPS 15 (2019) Review

The Dell XPS 15's striking OLED screen, Core i9 CPU and Nvidia GTX 1650 GPU make it a beautiful and powerful workhorse.

rl9 minimal install doesnt come with dnf, gzip or it will fail downloading things with wget (even that is included???)

What are the steps to make it "work", will like to
wget https://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/13.2.0/local_installers/cuda_13.2.0_595.45.04_linux.run

and see if I can compile some cuda things maybe from inside
doas chroot /compat/linux /bin/bash

Also if I download the localfile in freebsd and run it inside rl9, it says it doesnt have enough space (not sure why).

bash-5.1# sh cuda_13.2.0_595.45.04_linux.run
Extraction failed.
Ensure there is enough space in /tmp and that the installation package is not corrupt
Signal caught, cleaning up

ok, got a way to install gzip... but then did the same for microdnf and got this

~/Downloads $ cd /compat/linux/
/c/linux $ rpm2cpio < ~/Downloads/microdnf-3.9.1-3.el9.x86_64.rpm | doas cpio -id
