Hello,
One possible good thing of Linux is that there are for instance Stable, Testing and Unstable, which allows the user to pick up his flavor.
The stable is older but it is tested, and it might work, likely.
There are many bugs:
11.x does not boot for all machines.
12.x is regularly broken and it is not booting on all notebooks.
13.x does not boot either and it is likely to be more broken than 12.x
This can be discussed it if it is really a good thing. I personally think that it can help users to have their system working.
Once you wipe off, the PC - fresh reinstall it, then you can discover bugs or issues during the course of the time.
Example, no X11 on FreeBSD 12.0, because of a Bug occuring.
The important thing is to rely on nothing - maybe just the terminal, to have the system running.
Luckily there is the base that runs well.
However during the course of time, kernel.txz can be modified and after some time, you can get an issue with your hardware.
Sometimes there are even bugs occurring on PKG.
This is normal and expected.
So let's discuss if you like flavor : stable and testing.
Yours sincerely

X - no screens found - error
Hi, I'm new to FreeBSD. I have been searching the forum, and googled, but haven't found an answer to this question. I have a HP EliteBook 850, 14" screen. Installing Xorg seems a bit tricky. I have installed Xorg, dbus (and enabled it in /etc/rc.conf), a windowmanager (dwm) and edited my...
