Hello! Fresh install of KDE Plasma 5.24.5 on FreeBSD 13.1-RELEASE. After logging out of KDE, these kind of error messages appear: file:///usr/local/share/plasma/plasmoids/org.kde.plasma.kickoff/contents/ui/Kickoff.qml:30: TypeError: Cannot read property 'formFactor' of null...

Hello, I've already posted here about this problem, but I thought I'd make another post in a different category since I don't think it's a problem with peripherals; rather, it is a problem with the refactored drm-kmod-and-friends ports. I hope that's allright! ☺️ I am on a laptop, specifically...

I reinstalled FreeBSD and KDE today because of an issue I was having with my clock. Everything seemed to work after installing FreeBSD and Xorg. I was even able to run the TWM window manager after installing Xorg by running % startx as a regular user. The issue came when I got to the very last...

Hi, Today I've decided to choose freebsd 13 as my desktop system, and now I want to ask for recepie to continue. I've typed in: # pkg install graphics/drm-kmod # pkg install -y kde5 sddm xorg What should I do after that steps if I wan't to just start desktop on startup with some login manager...

I'm trying to install tigervnc-viewer and hit with the following error: I have xorg and KDE installed on my system. Should I remove the "mesa-libs" as advised by this? What should I do? Please advise.

I had just did a fresh installation of FreeBSD 13 and xorg+KDE. I deliberately left out "dbus_enable="YES" in the /etc/rc.conf (after finding out that it isn't really necessary as some users don't have it enabled). After rebooting the machine, I got a blank (black) screen with only a moving...

I'm using KDE with the drm-kmod graphics driver and just experienced a hang issue. I'm just wondering if I switch over to Xfce, would it work without this drm-kmod driver? My gut feeling is it would require the same hardware drivers. But however, I remember that many years ago things were much...

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 notice that after successful installation of KDE on FreeBSD, there are many files linked into the kernal, as shown by the command "kldstat". (1) I wondering where is this configured - what file(s)? I checked /boot/loader.conf and /etc/rc.conf and couldn't find them there. (2) Is there a...

I'm trying to run FreeBSD with KDE or Xfce inside a bhyve virtual machine. The bhyve command executed to start the VM has "-s 29,fbuf,tcp=0.0.0.0:5900,w=800,h=600 -s 30,xhci,tablet" included. From within the VM, I tried to execute "startx" and I'm hit with the following error: (EE) Cannot run...

I'm trying to get KDE up and running on FreeBSD 13 on a laptop PC. I could not even configure Xorg to run and it seems like the hardware cannot be recognized. So, I downloaded GhostBSD (both the default MATE and Xfce versions) and it works out of the box. I am now trying to figure out what...

Adrian De Groot wrote this Blog post about his recent work on KDE on Wayland for FreeBSD. I'm hyped to see the updates coming in pkg repo so one can enjoy a Wayland desktop experience on FreeBSD. Prerequisites are FREEBSD 13.0 64 Intel l915kms Disabling sddm. **Edit:** As of 2021-05-13 with...

Hello ! I have a problem that has been turning my head for 1 day ... That's all, I tried to install FreeBSD on a VMWare virtual machine. I want to install KDE5. My installations and configurations: -xorg -kde5 -sddm sysrc dbus_enable="YES" sysrc hald_enable="YES" sysrc sddm_enable="YES" I...

I'm trying to install KDE in jail. I've installed these: Set the /etc/fstab (inside the jail): And added to /etc/rc.conf (inside jail): And the I tried to start the jail, and got these errors in the sddm.log file: I tried to run "Xorg -configure" and got: I think there is no video...

Let's just brainstorm... What would you expect a "FreeBSD Kommunity Edition" to be/offer? What would you like it to be/offer? Is there demand for such a thing? Would you like to see a *BSD Kommunity Edition? What is missing or should be better in base FreeBSD / in the KDE ports? Add your...

There was one good thing about IBM, Microsoft and Intel business activities in the past. Their goal was clear: to gain more market share, make more money and total annihilation of competitors. However nowadays it's a completely different story, especially in the open source and free software...

Edit: Following a package update that causes even more issues.. I have opted to reinstall, and never switch from quarterly again. This seems to have fixed it I am on freebsd 12.1 x64, running the latest branch for ports. I had uninstalled KDE to try out MATE, after I was done I reinstalled KDE...

Hello, Just yesterday I upgraded my KDE Plasma desktop to new version 5.19.0 using portupgrade -R. After updating I have problems logging out (get KCrash Handler error) - Application: kwin_x11 (kwin_x11), signal: Segmentation fault [KCrash Handler] #7 0x0000000803282d1f in...
