if anyone has ports installed can you list them like pkg info output?

even better would be section pkg description

Ports as in self compiled pkgs? Yes, they show up the same way

you can list the ports the same way how?

like pkg info > ~/pkg-list

^^ that only list installed

pkg info | while read ITEM; do pkg info $(echo ${ITEM} | awk '{print $1}') | grep binary >/dev/null || echo ${ITEM} done

this wiould discard the binary ones

and show the no binary ones

nevermind

Can I run Linux app in freebsd the only I don't want to switch is Linux app like Brave and virtual box

This might be helpful for you, some apps work good, for example "abrowser" - a firefox fork from the Trisquel Distro, some extracted appimages like LibreWolf also work https://www.micski.dk/2021/12/21/install-ubuntu-base-system-into-freebsds-linux-binary-compatibility/

Hiii, I’m super new Freebsd, I was trying to install dwm but x11 headers are not present in /usr/include. I tried installing libX11 but still the x11 headers were not installed in /usr/include

Plz help!!

Plz help!!

Did you Install the x11 package?

Plz help!!

Also, from where are you trying to build dwm? From suckless repo or from the FreeBSD port?

Hiii, I’m super new Freebsd, I was trying to install dwm but x11 headers are not present in /usr/include. I tried installing libX11 but still the x11 headers were not installed in /usr/include

Because FreeBSD has different PREFIX - /usr/local/include/X11/Xlib.h If you want to build dwm from suckles repo, you should edit config.mk and set properly path to includes/libs.

Also, please read https://docs.freebsd.org/en/books/handbook/ports/

Plz help!!

Then take in consideration what Alexander said to you. FreeBSD has different path for libraries than Linux (:

I am experiencing a lot of sudden reboot with my laptop running FreeBSD 13.0 RELEASE with Xfce4 DE. How do I track down this issue?

It happened when I unplugged the HDMI cable for my second monitor, when I logged out of a Xfce4 session, or when I woke laptop up from suspend (S3)

One time it even happened when I quit mpv player.

i'm having a race type condition with memory

Sure.. Thank youu!

My touchpad vertical scroll works in Xfce4 but not in openbox session, what do I do?

Do you have any xorg logs?

Do you have any xorg logs?

Which log file should I look into?

I saw in /var/log/Xorg.0.log that libinput was used for touchpad, so I may have to tweak with libinput options I think.

That log yeah, I was afk

You may need to configure a 40-libinput.conf file with some tweaks for the touchpad

I miss running this system😔Linux just ain't the same...

has freebsd lock out the ports ?

I looked up in the manual but didn't find anything to turn up vertical scroll. BTW, forums.freebsd.org is down and I can't go through related threads there.

Arch Wiki? or other Wiki.

For libinput, try readin the features you have in your touchpad via $ xinput list-props touchpadID. It should show scroll since you have it working on the other DE/WM. Also, do you have evdev installed? Maybe that can help too

Will try tonight, AFK now. Thanks guys

get it working by xinput set-prop 10 267 0 1 0. The document is really ambiguous. Found it in a Arch Linux forum thread here. https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=210096

Awesome! Glad you fixed it (:

Adding it to my 40-libinput.conf to see if it'll work permanently.

though I am still curious why it worked in Xfce4 without any manual config

Indeed, that's a good question. Is it over the same OS installation you installed xfce4, or did you install a fresh FreeBSD and then Openbox?

Same system. I logged out of openbox yesterday and then into Xfce4 just to see if it worked in Xfce4 and it did work.

Rebooted and seems `40-libinput.conf` is doing the trick for me. hooray

More of a problem is that I encountered many times of sudden reboot in Xfce4 session. That's the reason I am using openbox now.

And it didn't seem to happen in the last several days in openbox, yet

Interesting... I never used any of them over FreeBSD so I have no clue at all. Sudden reboots over Xfce4 is something I had eventually over a Debian installation, so might not be tied to FreeBSD

But can also be a problem of something else and not Xfce4 itself

really clueless. I've been using Debian sid plus Xfce4 on my work laptop for years and didn't recall this happened even once. but I may have see it on this FreeBSD system for over 10 time nows. And I've only used FreeBSD for less than 2 months now.

it happened multiple times when I click "Logout" from Xfce4 menu. And also few times when I unplug a HDMI cable for a second monitor from the laptop. Also maybe 2 or 3 time when I am at lightDM login screen, didn't remember what I was doing though.

It really annoys me and make me worry about data loss or hardware damage. drives me to abandon Xfce4 on this laptop, though I've been using it for year and it's my favorite.

I hold my breath now every time I logout or use my second monitor. this REALLY sucks🤦🏻‍♂️

I can feel that (: I've had similar situations

To install CURRENT versions you need to fresh install them from image files. Only Release versions have integrated system upgrading

You're just too fast.

looks good to me

maybe that volume has another partition

i think that's dolphin being weird.. the drive is already mounted.

just ignore it

did you install the ports collection ?

ok can you tell me from the ports what is gxmms2

humm /usr/ports/multimedia/gxmms2 in there should be a pkg description

ok thx

ya planing on installing kde5 ?

yeah saw that

u can access those unmountable volume using linux live environment

actually i had encountered this while ago,because partition was ext4 n bsd unable to mount that volume

mount linux ext4 drives on Freebsd You can mount linux ext4 drives on Freebsd using fusefs-ext2 package Install fusefs-ext2 # pkg install fusefs-ext2 Enable the fuse kernel module To enable loading FUSE kernel module at boot add fuse_load=YES line to the /boot/loader.conf file Edit /boot/loader.conf # vi /boot/loader.conf.

diferent animal

like ya need fuse for mounting exfat and/or ntfs volumes

it show up w/ kldstat ?

your good here tho.
