--000000000000ac88360632b1f737 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable I will try all your suggestions one by one. Regarding the wi-fi on the raspberry pi,I want to open a parentheses... ( I'm looking for a way to transform a BT keyboard like that I've bought (LILYGO t-keyboard) into a wired / USB keyboard. I need this conversion because FreeBSD on the Raspy (and not only here) does not recognize almost all the BT/Wi-fi devices or if it does,they will not work. I found this adapter : https://www.intelletto.com/products?id=3D3004 I would like to understand if it works like I imagine. Basically what I want to do to reach the final goal are the following tasks : 1) I attach the BT dongle 2) I turn on my LILYGO bt and it starts waiting for the signal 3) I attach your adapter 4) I do the pairing 5) FreeBSD recognizes the Keyboard as a USB device and it starts working. I would like to know if,using that adapter, I can exonerate FreeBSD from recognition or maybe it's better to say make it work,the BT dongle that I use to do the pairing with my LILYGO keyboard....if the keyboard will be recognized as one USB keyboard I can use use it on FreeBSD installed on the Raspy. closed parentheses ) On Mon, Apr 14, 2025 at 1:59=E2=80=AFAM Mark Millard <marklmi@yahoo.com> wr= ote: > On Apr 13, 2025, at 15:41, Zach Metzinger <zmetzing@pobox.com> wrote: > > > On 4/13/25 16:47, Mario Marietto wrote: > >> Why isn't there a specific version of FreeBSD for the raspberry pi zer= o > 2W ? > > > > Hello Mario, > > > > You might think about re-wording that question.
