I really like that 13.5 is very stable and will be supported until April 2026. As far as I understand, 13.5 is the last release of the 13 versions. I would not like to upgrade to 14.3, which does not seem that stable to me. It so happened that I had already updated a couple of unimportant...

I was running 14.1 on Lenovo T480s without any issues, decided to upgrade to 14.2 and the video driver didn't work. At the end of the day, I decided to reinstall FreeBSD 14.2 from USB and loading the video driver from the pkg. I reused the driver for UHD Graphics 620 (drm-510) on 14.2 from 14.1.

Hello forum, good afternoon. I want to minimize the number of reboots required during the upgrade process by src. I'm running Stable and the current upgrade process that I do it is this: doas git -C /usr/src pull cd /usr/src doas make clean doas make -j8 buildworld buildkernel doas make...

First question it is about pkgbase with stable branch. Let's imagine this scenario: I download a new stable iso and just after the installation is done, I configure the pkgbase repo and install it before any other system configuration. In this case, can I just delete all pkgsave files? And in...

I am currently trying to update my source tree to be based on 14.1, current based on 14.0. buildworld and buildkernel completed without errors, but make packages fails. The culprit is release/packages/generate-ucl.lua, which is new in 14.1. Makefile.inc and release/packages/generate-usl.sh are...
