what's freebsd15 feeling now?(as a desktop system)

 

[scottro]

It's working fine for me with the exception of vm-bhyve. I run openbox as window manager alacritty as terminal waterfox and librewolf as browsers. On rare occasion Japanese input, also working fine. This is on a clean install. For my use case, seems about the same os 14.x

Contrary to the picture you posted first and now removed, there is no option to get a desktop install.

 

[fmc000]

For me as a desktop 15 is not an option because of PR 290265.

I have a problem with Windows 11 bhyve guest again - PR 268794

Edit.
Another minor issue:

Dec 7 13:05:06 freebsd7 kernel: NVRM: API mismatch: the client 'Xorg' (pid 3006)
Dec 7 13:05:06 freebsd7 kernel: NVRM: has the version 580.95.05, but this kernel module has
Dec 7 13:05:06 freebsd7 kernel: NVRM: the version 580.105.08. Please make sure that this
Dec 7 13:05:06 freebsd7 kernel: NVRM: kernel module and all NVIDIA driver components
Dec 7 13:05:06 freebsd7 kernel: NVRM: have the same version.

X didn't start, and I had to install nvidia-kmod-580.95.05.1500068 instead of the nvidia-kmod-580.105.08.1500068 installed by the installer.

This was a fresh install (not an upgrade).

After installation the repositories are as follows :

[lanin@freebsd7 ~]$ cat /etc/pkg/FreeBSD.conf
#
# To disable a repository, instead of modifying or removing this file,
# create a /usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/FreeBSD.conf file, e.g.:
#
# mkdir -p /usr/local/etc/pkg/repos
# echo "FreeBSD-ports: { enabled: no }" > /usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/FreeBSD.conf
# echo "FreeBSD-ports-kmods: { enabled: no }" >> /usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/FreeBSD.conf
#
# Note that the FreeBSD-base repository is disabled by default.
