ah yes I had similar issues on linux, and fixed that by deleting nvidia from system

I did some magic with /dev, card0 but forgot the code

oh, a missed shot. Your user is in the video group right?

idk, launching X from root

I was wondering something - new bsd user, longtime linux user.. while testing xorg, I couldn't figure out how to launch it - what package contains startx? in the end, I ended up installing lightdm so I worked around it, but for future reference, please?

hmm that must hurt rn. Let me know if you find/remember it at some point. There must be a solution for configs with multiple gpus to get to X selecting the desired card, and the community will benefit from knowing the how tos

I could do that with the following (on linux) hpv15:~ # lspci -nn ... 00:18.7 Host bridge [0600]: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD] Rembrandt Data Fabric: Device 18h; Function 7 [1022:1680] 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: NVIDIA Corporation GA107 [GeForce RTX 2050] [10de:25ad] (rev a1) 01:00.1 Audio device [0403]: NVIDIA Corporation Device [10de:2291] (rev a1) ... hpv15:~ # echo 1 | tee /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000\:01\:00.0/remove hpv15:~ # lspci -nn ... 00:18.7 Host bridge [0600]: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD] Rembrandt Data Fabric: Device 18h; Function 7 [1022:1680] 01:00.1 Audio device [0403]: NVIDIA Corporation Device [10de:2291] (rev a1) ... just piping 1 to the /sys/bus/...

ah I got it, that's because minimal freebsd version supporting my GPU is 14.1 https://wiki.freebsd.org/Graphics/AMD-GPU-Matrix (see the bottommost entry) The only reason to install 13.4 was that my keyboard is not functioning as soon as I enter the installer

Oh! Cool! So have you tried 14.x again?

I have a question - on my main linux desktop, if I hold alt and scroll the mousewheel, xorg changes resolution and lets me zoom the screen a little bit.. it's very nice.. I want that on my laptop.. using the pinch motion on the touchpad.. does anyone have an idea how to config that, or even where to start? not sure which components are involved to make it happen - edit, ok, so it seems to be an XFCE4 feature

you can try a mix between xdotool and this https://github.com/bulletmark/libinput-gestures to trick the system into thinking alt+scroll is being used when pinching the touchpad

Hi guys, I have a problem with wireless internet in Freebsd. I searched for my card on the site for support and the result is: https://bsd-hardware.info/?id=usb:0e8d-7603 I don't quite understand, can't I use WLAN now?

I forgot to mention, my card is plugged to usb, not pci

But dmesg shows the card successfully: ugen0.4: <MediaTek 802.11 n WLAN> at usbus0

ah so try ifconfig

im just curious what ifconfig shows..

pciconf -lv | grep -A4 none you probably will see something like none2@some:pci:address I use rndis driver instead. just attach usb tethering and see the new device in ifconfig and run dhclient <dev>, most probably ue0

you've an android phone right?

But how ifconfig will know the phone as a wlan device?

But how ifconfig will know the phone as a wlan device?

i assume you know how to tether via usb...

Actually, not sorry. I plugged the usb

ok search then... solely android action, not ontopic here

I have small usb-wifi dongles, and they seem to be detected.. if I do "usbconfig", it's listed as ugen0.4: <Realtek 8188EUS [USB-N10 Nano] ASUSTek Computer, Inc.> at usbus0, cfg=0 md=HOST spd=HIGH (480Mbps) pwr=ON (500mA) also shows up in messages when it's inserted as device rtwn0 - however, it's not showing up in ifconfig? does some firmware need to be loaded, or what am I missing here?

Freebsd has the best documentation.
