-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 It turned out now, that AMDGPU is not workable (yet?), but radeonsi is with radeonkms. Regarding the desktop applications I do have some doubts: enigmail port has been deleted for example. Has this been merged into thunderbird, or where am I supposed to get it from?? I have checked about a local mirror already, for amd64 this would be around 35 GB of disk-space for instance, would probably be worth it, not too expensive. I should soon see whether lots of seriously boring work and enormous productivity are provided by the real unix OS. What is missing for sure on FBSD is x2go-server, you would have to build it from source seemingly, or use VNC instead, which is a bit less convenient. The upside of this is obviously that the OS has a different kernel, and thus it would have much less vulnerabilities and possible exploits than Linux. I also do not have a license-mismatch here between the OS itself and Hugin, both are the same non-free in terms of DFSG and GPL. - -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Begin forwarded message: Date: Tue, 20 Aug 2019 11:27:10 +0200 From: andrew glaeser <bugs@irregulaire.info> To: x11@FreeBSD.org, debian-x@lists.debian.org Subject: AMDGPU or RADEON for A4-APU with Kabini graphics?? - - -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Is the FreeBSD desktop on the rise?? Generally NO! Only very few people will be savvy enough to take the pains and to work in the tension-field between deadly boredom, technical adventure and extreme stability. While some people say, that Debian is one of the most boring linux-distributions in the whole world, besides RHEL and CentOS, believe it or not, FreeBSD is even worse, it has the same downside as the other US-american products, use being prohibited in so-called rogue-countries, where you will not be getting any software- and security-updates. Yesterday I installed anew, now on my main desktop-PC, of which I used to think as embedded-workstation, because it takes 25 W of electric power only, while being fast enough in terms of CPU performance for cheap multimedia-applications. Download of KDE-desktop packages mostly went at a velocity around 56 Kbit/s, so you clearly need a locally mirrored repository for only remotely professional use. Who else would really wait hours and hours, until the packages belonging to the K-desktop-environment are only just downloaded through the package-management system? Only hobbyists like myself. While these hobbyists can become happy much more easily and faster with Linux. So really, why take the hassle? The problem is now, that again with the seasoned A4-fusion-APU, AMDGPU driver is not working properly, and neither is RADEON, Xorg-autoconfiguration wants to set up the 'modesetting'-driver, which is not workable either. What now? My experience from Linux says, that this used to work both with RADEON first, and then later with AMDGPU. - - -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iF0EARECAB0WIQTF9uNaslvnJpWt8kXn6sEfJS3nCwUCXVu87gAKCRDn6sEfJS3n CwLMAKCVHP/Ei+tizfxC5Pu3CvEE/3NgigCgjgJn2/XrMwFkHrdoETuiqhyJmmc= =iqWB - - -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- - -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iF0EARECAB0WIQTF9uNaslvnJpWt8kXn6sEfJS3nCwUCXVvfrwAKCRDn6sEfJS3n C+jlAJ431gNwXjZnAL1HK9itZHK6qzVvdgCcCS8Irp1jY4iMhx5fJE4J503FbyQ= =Q8ae - -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iF0EARECAB0WIQTF9uNaslvnJpWt8kXn6sEfJS3nCwUCXVwDCQAKCRDn6sEfJS3n C9q4AKCkQ4lUhuQjAUSv8PbVt7FPHFMHUACfU3w3gFy/2kDCsZOR3w/NLZSKyoY= =eQY0 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
