Hi folks, IMO this is not the place to discuss other OS alternatives in place of FreeBSD/*BSD. Not that I have anything against any other OS, but there are other places (mailing lists and/or forums mainly related to those other OSes) which are more suitable to discuss that. Jerry, that does not mean in anyway that you are invited to "shut-up" or "just-to-fuck-off", I believe it has been explained by more than one person that this is not the attitude of this community. Moving forward, following the advice from Tomasz [1], I want to buy a HW on which we can investigate the problem and work on a solution (if possible/if any). Not just that, I want to volunteer to do the work if the fix will require some code changes (possibly in addition to the patches attached already to that PR), but for that I may need guidance and mentor-ship - Tomasz, is it possible that you can help in that respect ? Jerry, from what I've read in [2], the issue is related to 'C610/X99 series chipset' from 'Intel Corporation'. One of the attachments [3], specifically referred to 'Dell XPS 8930'. Is that the same machine on which you are having problems ? Looking forward to your reply [1] - https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-questions/2021-March/293464.html [2] - https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=237666 [3] - https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=213055&action=edit -- Mohammad Noureldin Founder/Owner The Lightbird
