driver

Something terrible happened. My FreeBSD PC (v. 13) hanged. Upon rebooting and examinig, it looks like the graphics driver is the culprit: (above error message is found in /var/log/messages, and typed (because the PC's network is not connected) Any thoughts about this? Or since this is...

I'm trying to configure my wireless network card and it is identified as none2@pci0:0:21:3: vendor = 'Intel Corporation' device = 'Wi-Fi 6 AX201' The "none" means there is no driver? I think found this confirming that it is not yet supported...

I'm receiving a MUNBYN ITPP941 label printer next week, and as it turned out, it's one of the most common label printers available globally under at least three different brand names (Beeprt, Rollo, Munbyn). There is a Linux CUPS driver package available for download...

My computer has HD 8000 series graphics known as Kabini. It did not work with FreeBSD after trying suggestions from the Handbook and forum HowTos so I tested with GhostBSD. The main difference is kbd_list="/boot/modules/amdgpu.ko" in rc.conf (there are 24 kabini modules). Now it works. I...

I am wondering if it is possible to use a Linux printer driver for CUPS that contains a filter program binary in FreeBSD. Specifically this is about the MUNBYN ITPP941 label printer for which the Linux CUPS driver can be downloaded here. That driver consists of a Beeprt.ppd and a...

Hello friends, I have a TrueNAS 12.0 server which runs with no GUI. I plugged in Nvidia GTX 1050Ti to it in order to use in ffmpeg. After plugging in pciconf -vl gave me the following output vgapci0@pci0:2:0:0: class=0x030000 card=0x85d11043 chip=0x1c8210de rev=0xa1 hdr=0x00 vendor...

Let me apologize upfront if this is too much of a basic question. Sure there are enough resources out there for me to figure this one out by myself. But, I am complete newbie to BSD Unix, and some guidance may help me to speed up the process. I am trying to install FreeBSD (13.0) in my new PC...

As a reaction to Apple's choosing not to support 'ancient' hardware, and in line with my slow migration to bsdland, I'm upgrading my mid-2010 MacPro (with its 12-2.93GHz cores and a measly 32GB ram) to FreeBSD 12.1. The install went flawlessly. However, when I tried kldload radeonkms or amdgpu...

Hello, I installed FreeBSD 12.1 on my desktop, which has a TP-Link TL-WN881ND, which in itself has the Realtek RTL8192EE. I went through the handbook and found that (unless I am missing something), I should use the XP drivers via ndisgen as I did not find a driver anywhere in the docs or...

Hi forum I'm new to FreeBSD and having version 11.3 on GA-H87N-Wifi motherboard. Most things working as intended, except the WLAN. Does anybody know whether there's an Intel (?) driver that can solve this problem ? TIA's for any tips or clues.
