Setting up a /usr/local/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/monitor.conf file is the best way. Some of the Linux distros have good docs on multihead Xorg. Your going to tell your applications what screen you want to run them on. Otherwise they run on display:0...

I follow this link https://github.com/churchers/vm-bhyve/wiki/Quickstart Skipped step 8 because failed: "8. vm switch add public em0", I used bge0. but I do not think this is the reason it stoped . I already modified the config file by "vm configure myguest". And also...

Hello everyone! I recently discovered after having created a guest account that I can't log into it. Right after configuring the root account (setting the password), I created a user account (after install) (an account in the wheel group). It was meant to be my 'admin' account and it works...

Editorial Hi gang! FreeBSD is plain and simple my all time favorite Unix operating system. And yes: technically speaking it's Unix-like but that's mostly due to licensing concerns. If you look at the backwards compatibility aspects (see /usr/src/sys/amd64/conf/GENERIC, the COMPAT_FREEBSDxx...

It seems a lot of criticisms against TrueOS are based on old PCBSD or very early TrueOS experiences. I also remember having some rough times with PCBSD when I tried it. Today I'm using TrueOS as my desktop OS on 3 desktops and my laptop. My main workstation is running TrueOS since sept. 6th...

I did what handbook said. There was no /etc/X11/xorg.conf so i created it with using vi, and added Driver "nvidia" (with two tabs in between). Upon rebooting, everything went as usual ("firewalls rules laoded" etc), logged in as normal user (i do not use login manager). Upon entring...

Hi gang! Editorial SO yeah, at the time of writing I'm sitting behind my latest acquirement: a Dell PowerEdge SC1420, tower model. Its previous owner had no use for it anymore and so it ended up with me. Originally it ran several Windows versions and Ubuntu Linux but because I'm mostly...

Hello there, I have just installed FreeBSD 11 on my old Acer Extensa 5220 Notebook from DVD. After setting up Xorg, xfce and slim, the login manager shows up, asking me for user and password. Up to here, everything works as expected, but..: No matter if I try to login as root or with my normal...

I installed GNOME3 last week (from ports) and used it successfully all week. Worked great. Unfortunately, I went away for the weekend and turned off my desktop. I must have changed something the last time I used my machine because now, after I enter my login in GDM, I get a white screen that...

Hello Phishfry, Thank you for taking the time in helping me solve my problem. I found the issue, which happened to be the way I was booting from the USB. I was using the UEFI, I have a BOIS/UEFI hybrid on my laptop. Selecting the non UEFI boot option of the USB drive allowed me to install...

As i'm french, i configure my session for the french language. I use XFCE4, and Slim as session manager. I configured /etc/profile, as: # $FreeBSD: releng/11.0/etc/profile 208116 2010-05-15 17:49:56Z jilles $ # # System-wide .profile file for sh(1). # # Uncomment this to give you the default...

With slim disabled, and starting X via startx resulted in the exact same problems mentioned above. However, I do have another interesting thing I came across ... The problem isn't Xorg... but I still don't know what the problem is. While on the console (hadn't ran startx yet) and with vt...

Ok, I notice the x11/slim login manager in your rc.conf and that may need a setting in /etc/ttys. Or try to start Xorg without x11/slim using startx.

With the amount of changes to the Lumina desktop environment and the increasing number of questions/comments we are receiving, I thought it would be a good time to post a status report about it and answer many of the commonly asked questions. As always, please post any bug reports or feature...

Oh. Slim can also be enabled through /etc/ttys, by changing the line from xdm to slim, and setting the option on. If the window manager doesn't take care of the background, then what you said is the way to do it. I find it odd that my set up didn't work unless I set up both .xsession and...

Hey Everyone! The new version of PC-BSD is out. There are lots of improved features so check out the release notes below! The PC-BSD team is pleased to announce the availability of 10.1.1-RELEASE! Changes since RC2 ——————————————— * Fixed an issue using auto-login in PCDM and setting...

Hi, I know there are a million of these threads already but nothing seems to be working for me. Programs are slow to start, the mouse is jumpy every few seconds, etc. It is really apparent with videos because they are very choppy. I've used FreeBSD extensively during past releases and have...

Thanks, @SirDice -- well spotted. @nate88, to fix the cause of the warning you received about services listening on all addresses, you need to configure each of those services to listen only on the IP address(es) you are using for the host, not those assigned to the jails. For example, from...

I went ahead with the install without building from ports, but thanks anyway, @SirDice. I've got Roundcube up and running (sort of), I just can't login to the web interface. I keep getting a 'login failed' error despite using the correct credentials and successfully sending and receiving with...

I will try to answer this. If something is setuid, when someone runs that file, that process will take on the privileges of the user account that owns the file (often root). I believe (though not 100% sure) that setgid will assign the process permissions of the file's group. A while back, I...
