Having a few issues with KDE plasma5 (desktop) installed on updated FBSD 14.1.
1) - Resolution: the screen is stuck on 800 x 600 (no other options available) and only recognizes one of 2 ext. monitors (1920 x 1200), and can only mirror on it, not extend. Reading the Handbook and posts, will try the suggestion of adding / configuring the NVIDIA driver file in /usr/local/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-nvidia.conf.
If the 20-nvidia.conf file doesn't exist, do I just create it and add the 4 lines of text?
(This is for an older GeForce 425 card . Have already installed the nvidia-driver-340, and added both nvida and then also nvidia-modeset to kld_list in the rc.conf file)
Note - on the Monitor/Display options page it says:
"800 x 600 is the only resolution supported by this display. Using unsupported resolutions was possible in the Plasma X11 session, but they were never guaranteed to work and are not available in this Plasma Wayland session."
Wayland? This confuses me as I've logged in with the X11 Plasma option. In fact, Wayland wasn't even listed as an option to choose from, just: X11 Plasma or User Session.
2) - Time: the time is wrong and can't be fixed. The region, as selected, is correct though. And yet the time is running +7 hrs ahead. When I adjust the time and click on Apply, an error pops up:
- Error - System Settings
- Unable to authenticate / execute this action: 4,
I'm logged in with Admin rights, the user has been set with groups: wheel, operator and video. Why won't it accept the change I make to the time when I hit the Apply button?
3) - Sleep/Suspend: Logging out and then selecting the Sleep option leaves the desktop login page, fades to black CLI with a bunch of text ... and then hangs. Had to do a hard shutdown.
Hopefully these are easy fixes. Any suggestions?
