Hello Fellow FreeBSD-arm users, just wondering if anyone else is enjoying a desktop environment on their ARM64 sbc running FreeBSD 13.0-STABLE or 13.1-RELENG or 14.0-CURRENT? MATE or XFCE4? other Desktop Environment? I was enjoying MATE desktop environment on my Raspberry Pi 4B with 8 gb ram, using hardware I bought almost 2 years ago in January 2021 from Vilros.com . https://forums.raspberrypi.com/viewtopic.php?t=343233 (Solved), HDMI audio sound output through TV speakers Freebsd 13 or 14 plus VCHIQ audio patch file This wiki.radxa.com/rock5 SBC hardware looks promising. Is there any FreeBSD O/S support for that hardware for the RK3588 8 cpu board? too new to know, until someone buys one hardware board and tries booting FreeBSD-ARM64.? https://ameridroid.com/collections/rock5-model-b https://wiki.radxa.com/Rock5 pkg update ; pkg upgrade broke my desktop environment from being usable. versionsort() function was undefined somehow in the updated software. Well, I learned to ssh into the Raspi4B via the ethernet cable and that is working fine for building and testing software with a single screen. Audio_Patch for VCHIQ, So nice to listen to YouTube videos on your SBC computer. What can I do to review and help move that patch to be part of the source code? https://reviews.freebsd.org/D36431 I am reading this now. Doing my part to move FreeBSD source forward. Wishing you a pleasant week FreeBSD-arm user, in your use of FreeBSD on Armv7 or Armv8a. Bob P is doing his testing, too! Good Job Bob. -- Fred Finster fred@thegalacticzoo.com +1 971-718-9144 https://GhostBSD-ARM64.blogspot.com https://ghostbsd.org
