FreeBSD 13 is awesome top performance everything is good except of that one thing........Touchpads ! My laptop's touchpad doesn't want to work,to make it work i have to use iichid and do some configuring.

I have just seen that neither the signalapp / Signal-Desktop nor the deltachat-desktop app has been ported to FreeBSD yet. Has anyone already taken a look if it's possible or to run the (Debian-based) Linux binary? Or to run the Windows app with Wine? P.S. I'm not using FreeBSD (waiting for...

I was just wondering if someone would be interested in porting signalapp / Signal-Desktop or if there is specific reason why it hasn't been ported yet (Linux only?). P.S. I'm not using FreeBSD (waiting for 13.0 RELEASE to go onto my new laptop) or Signal yet, nor am I a developer, so this is...

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...

Hi, I use FreeBSD 12.2-RELEASE on a ThinkPad T530. Most of the time, I run it connected to 2 external screens: - one via miniDP -> HDMI (1920x1080) - the other one via VGA -> VGA (1440x900) - the built-in laptop screen is turned off (LVDS - 1366x768) Here are the relevant lines of my xrandr in a...

Hi Everyone, I have a ThinkPad X395 which comes with: AMD Ryzen 7 Pro 3700U Processor AMD Radeon Vega10 Graphics I am currently running Ubuntu 20.04LTS and not very happy with the experience. I would like to use FreeBSD on this laptop and was wondering if it supports the Ryzen and Vega chips...

I've been using FreeBSD for a decade on servers and infrastructure. Last weekend I thought it's time to give it a chance as a desktop OS. For this, I've been installing FreeBSD 12.1 on my old Lenovo Thinkpad X1 Carbon (3rd gen). I managed to install the base system, get wifi to work, have i3...

Hello, Once again here to ask if anyone knows if the Lenovo Ideapad 320s-13ikb has decent compatibility with FreeBSD, and if not, is there a list of known compatible laptops around? Cannot seem to find it. Thanks!

I have an Asus Vivobook Amd Ryzen 3 , Vega 3 . I want to make touchpad to work ! They told me that i should use the iichid driver do you know where i can find the proper guide for that ?

I bought a laptop. I'm going to use this computer to run only FreeBSD. But I don't know if the hardware driver supports it! If you know this information, you can tell me! Thank you very much! https://www.dell.com/en-us/shop/laptops/15-amd/spd/inspiron-15-5585-laptop CPU: AMD Ryzen™ 7 3700U...

I have a strange situation (for me). I install freeBSD 12.1, xorg, xfce, nvidia-driver (build the 440.31 from ports) ... When I launch startx, the screen of my laptop become black with a little blanc square on top left. I lost 3-4 hour to discover that if I connect a HDMI monitor, I can see...

I'm currently on Arch Linux and I'm interested in trying with FreeBSD with KDE Plasma (and likely bspwm as an alternative session) on my laptop again after quite some time, and I'm wondering what the way to go there is for managing networks, so easily connecting to and switching between public...

I've installed FreeBsd 12 on my laptop and Wifi, although works, is quite slow. It's way slower than it was at Linux on the same laptop. Is that how it is in Freebsd?

I have recently been trying to get FreeBSD setup on my HP Pavilion 15-p051us laptop with an AMD A10-5745M APU. Everything is working except for backlight control via the acpi_video module. I found the HP Envy Touchsmart page (https://wiki.freebsd.org/Laptops/HP_Envy_TouchSmart_m6), which has the...

Hello community, as I’ve asked to my friend Trev (but I solicit him very much): here’s my problematic: I was thinking about laptop and I’ve seen a lot of threads/discussions told that a laptop (the Thinkpad X1 carbon 6th generation from Levono ) is just the perfect desktop to use FreeBSD « out...

My laptop uses the RTL8188EE chipset for WiFi, which recently landed support in FreeBSD with this commit. I'd like to be able to use this new driver on my laptop while remaining as close to a "stable" system as possible. What's the best way to go about doing this? I'm not sure if the driver...

How can I configure Ralink rt3290 wifi adapter device for wifi connection?
