Re: Call for testing KDE installer dialogs
Date: Fri, 23 Jan 2026 09:20:34 UTC
HI I test installed KDE desktop installer two weeks ago on top of a FreeBSD 15-p1 base. specifically using the KDE NVIDIA Xorg combo , ( wayland dont seem to be included in the KDE desktop installer script. ) after running the script Nvidia driver did not start. To start the proprietary NVIDIA Driver linux emulation needs to be active. script needs to do # kldload linux linux64 to run the driver immediately . Script did not install Linux_enable="YES" , Dbus_enable="YES" in /etc/rc.conf. to enable the the driver to work after reboot. ALSO: Script did not install emulators/linux-base-rl9 package Script did not enter the linsysfs and the linprocfs in /etc/fstab. Script did not install Nvidia packages: x11/nvidia-xconfig , x11/nvidia-settings x11/linux-nvidia-libs , graphics/nvidia-texture-tools After adding all of the above I had a fully functioning KDE/NVIDIA/Xorg setup and google-Earth was using the GPU using linux-nvidia-libs.
