looks like the 5.11 support will bring it

with open pr and patch (code exists)

code branch: github.com/dumbbell/drm-kmod/tree/udpate-to-v5.11

Title: GitHub - dumbbell/drm-kmod at udpate-to-v5.11

crb: those are quite overkill for most bsd needs imo

you can get five year old radeons with gobs of memory and be fine for like $50-100 off ebay

nacelle: what would be something you recommend that is well supported out of the box

freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=radeon&sektion=4&format=html something from here :-)

Title: radeon(4)

I got mine from someone local for cheap, they had it collecting dust for a few years and it was time to give it a good home

crb: I have a 6600xt in a machine here, works fine with linux-drm, but getting all the pieces to work was an undocumented hassle, but that was last fall.

cgull: thank you for the feedback

Wait, no, I got that mixed up. That machine has an RX 550 or somesuch, the RX6600XT is in a Windows machine.

crb: freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=amdgp…ion=4&manpath=freebsd-release-ports is probably a better page to follow

Title: amdgpu(4)

amdgpu rocks.

thank you all!

G'morning. What do you use to run a Win VM as a guest in FreeBSD? I am running it with VirtualBox and my overall laptop performance is is terrible with the Win10 guest running. Are there maybe any settings to be made with VirtualBox? (set aside just 4GB RAM for that guest. I have 16GB on my laptop)

Does your CPU support virtualization? (For Intel ones, look for "VT-x" specification)

parv: It does. intel.com/content/www/us/en/product…-cache-2-30-ghz/specifications.html

FreeBSD is host and Win10 is guest.

Do you have that turned on (via BIOS)?

parv: Yes.

parv: I remember using Fedora as a host once having same kind of performance issues running a Win guest in VirtualBox. Switching then over to Virt-Manager changed everything for better. Is there something similar in FreeBSD?

I do not have much else to suggest. Sorry kodcode

parv: Thanks mate :)

Oh, there is byhve ... ?

s/byhve/bhyve/

You can run a GUI on bhyve?

... I may be mistaken but I think GUI won't be usable

No

It's got a VNC option right?

To view the console

Never tried it though

Have a look at ateamsystems.com/tech-blog/howto-windows-10-bhyve-w-freebsd-11

Title: HOW TO: Windows 10 Under Bhyve /w FreeBSD 11 - A-Team Systems

Are you supposed to be able to compile the current source tree with a 13.0 system?

Should be possible

Did the process stopped for you when building 14?

*ugh*🤬

yes

I'm cross building for armv7

/usr/src/sys/netlink/netlink_domain.c:102:22: error: format specifies type 'unsigned long' but the argument has type 'uint64_t' (aka 'unsigned long long') [-Werror,-Wformat]

wiki.freebsd.org/arm -- arm7 is 32 bit; arm8|aarch64 is 64 bit. Take the following with a boulder of salt, you would somehow need to indicate the build process to use 32 bit "system" ** waves hand **

Title: arm - FreeBSD Wiki

crb: how are you cross building?

(I use poudriere to do the heavy lifting for me: alpha.pkgbase.live/howto/howdo.html )

Title: How did she do it?!

Ahem... shells/bash marked BROKEN ??

Oh. ports_readline. Sorry. Carry on.

there is a pkg-message about it

This probably has been asked a lot, but is it possible to give a jail a fixed mac address? I want to IPv6 my network, but if the jail gets a different IPv6 address each time it reboots (EUI-64 algorithm?) it makes firewalling it a hell

They're EUI-64 after a change some time back, after FreeBSD got assigned its own range.

Maybe I'm missing something, but are you creating network ACLs based on the mac address?

Huh?!? I get a /56 from my ISP, which I have to "SLAAC"

Right.

debdrup: no, based on IP addresses, currently IPv4, but I will have to make FW rules for the IPv6 addresses

Well, if it's not described in the jail(8) manual page under the parameters, I don't think it's possible - but it's certainly something that seems like a good idea, so it'd be fantastic to be able to find a person who could work on it (or a company to pay someone for doing the work, preferably).

If you're using some jail manager, maybe it's possible. I know cbsd uses the same mac for a jail

I found this one to spoof mac addresses on physical NICs "ifconfig bge0 ether DE:AD:B0:0B:DE:AD" not sure if it works in a vnet, maybe someone tried already

hmm, forget that smiley :)

That indicates that jail(8) might be missing a parameter, because it shouldn't be possible for a jail manager to do it without jail(8)/jail(3) being capable of it.

debdrup: it boils down to what Sjottelsplak just wrote, so it's not so much jail feature in case of cbsd

Sjottelsplak: you can always use exec.start or exec.prestart for the ifconfig command

There's also exec.prepare, exec.prestart, and exec.poststart

It's a bit of a hack, but seems like it'd work fine.

okay, that ifconfig actually works in a jail, let's see how to incorporate that into my bootsequence

I am trying to build nanobsd image and I get this error: pastebin.mozilla.org/BeagYwiL

Title: Mozilla Community Pastebin/BeagYwiL (Bash)

any idea where to look for this issue ?

buildkernel and buildworld worked, this issue appears when installing world

meandrain: already expired

is there an easy way to figure out why a device doesn't work? I have a intel 8265 wifi card, which is also listed as supported, loads the driver (as far as I understand bsd) but it doesn't show up in ifconfig

murmel: what does dmesg say?

meena: couldn't find anything obvious but i scraped only a bit, as I can only use the live version of freebsd as of right now.

tried also the snapshot of 0930 of 14.0-current, no go

oh, specifically talking about 0x8086 / 0x24f3 / any / 0x0050 if this does help more

meena: is there an easy way to get data off of the live version? issue is my ssd is a luks encrypted ext4, so I assume no?

ext4 is supported, but out-of-band encryption isn't

ahh i remembered i still have somewhere a usb stick with zfs as the fs

so brb

murmel, "doesn't show up in ifconfig" as itself, or as wlan0? (Or 1 or higher if you have more than 1 Wifi interface)?

I don't know so hate to jump in here and cause problems but...

I recently found out about wifibox xyinn.org/md/freebsd/wifibox which might be of help for people suffering with a FreeBSD WiFi device problem.

Title: Fast & Stable WiFi with wifibox on FreeBSD |@fearedbliss

Not sure it would help if FreeBSD (or the driver) fails to recognize the interface, so I'd look at that first.

V_PauAmma_V: it doesn't show up at all. I only have loop and my ethernet

pci

so interestingly, on fbsd, it only loads the driver, on ghostbsd it can scan but not connect, and on nomad it works perfectly fine oO

just reflashing 13.1 on the usb to try a bit more

So I'd start by looking at logs or dmesg as meena said, and also output from "pciconf -lev".

murmel: it will not show in ifconfig in any case, you have to create a wlan device on top of it

murmel: check the handbook please, docs.freebsd.org/en/books/handbook/…vanced-networking/#network-wireless

Title: Chapter 32. Advanced Networking | FreeBSD Documentation Portal

V_PauAmma_V: well looked at dmesg, no errors at all. wanted to put it on the usb stick, but can't mount the zfs fs on the other usb stick, complaining about a ro fs. how would I get it to mount so I can put the logs on there

how did you "mount the zfs"?

zpool import usb, zfs load-key usb/data, zfs mount usb/data, and then it errors out with ro fs

meenayep

meena: I am simply doing a "make buildkernel KRENCONF=ARTYZ7 TARGET_ARCH=armv7"

meena: this has worked fine for me for ages

meena: chuckle I was asking about should I be able to build a kernel for current with a 13.0 system

ah, right

not sure, tbh, 13.0 is going EOL soon

but also, what does your make.conf look like?

are you crossbuilding LLVM?

crb: ⬆️

I have not made any changes to make.conf so it's stock or empty

I'm not sure what compiler it's building with off hand

in general buildworld will bootstrap the toolchain if the host's isn't sufficient

crb, KRENCONF <== you do realize you pasted this typo?

sorry KERNCONF, I typed it not pasted it

'k - just making sure.

CrtxReavr: yep, thank you

Too bad - would have been an easy fix. >=]

Kren in German is horseradish. And it comes to German via Czech, křen!

that is probably not very helpful…

crb: could you try build 13.1-STABLE?

meena: yes I will but it will take me a while

I don't have ssh setup on this phone yet and it's bedtime

meena: no problem, thanks for the help

I really should check tho
