It contains Intel I5 processor and integrated Intel graphics adapter. I tried to set it to drm-stable-kmod as well as to drm-next-kmod, none was = working, I got a fatal trap, kernel panic during boot. Compiling the packages on my system did not help. The graphics adapter can = be old for drm-xxxx-kmod packages. Drm2 from the base works correctly on my laptop. rgds Andras Krasznai -----Eredeti =FCzenet----- Felad=F3: owner-freebsd-current@freebsd.org [mailto:owner-freebsd-current@f= reebsd.org] Meghatalmaz=F3 Philip Homburg K=FCldve: 2018. m=E1jus 23. 11:49 C=EDmzett: Rodney W.

I noticed this lack of love for older systems recently.=20 I wanted to use an older Dell server to test the 11.2 BETAs and RCs. Turns out, you can't install FreeBSD using a USB stick image because the BIOS only support MBR. No idea why MBR support was dropped for the USB imag= es. In the end I had to find a CD burner, and after a couple of tries managed t= o install from CD. After that, my ansible playbooks started failing because /boot/loader.conf= =20 is absent if you boot from zfs in combination with MBR. Pity. This older server hardware is great for trying out new releases, play= =20 with zfs, etc. _______________________________________________ freebsd-current@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-current-unsubscribe@freebsd.org"
