can't use keyboard
- Edited
nettester It's loading for me but i think it wants me to login (not 100% sure - i can't read Chinese) and i don't even have a google account, let alone a baidu one.
I think login is not necessary
rvp If you can ssh into the machine from a phone or another PC, then you can do a dmesg & get the output.
I don't familiar with ssh, I don't know how to use it
rvp Do you have a keymap= line in /etc/rc.conf? A wrong one there can easily account for your symptom
no, that line is not in my /etc/rc.conf
Any other video sites I can upload videos?
unicorn I don't familiar with ssh, I don't know how to use it
Boot into single-user mode, then type these commands:
mount -u -w /
echo 'sshd_enable="YES"' >> /etc/rc.conf
mount -u -r /
poweroff
On the next boot, you should have the sshd
server running. Install an ssh
/sftp
/scp
client on any other machine (even Android), then you will be able to log-in (using the IP address) and run commands and fetch files from your "server".
(BTW, it's pretty easy to get networking going in single-user mode too if you want that...)
unicorn I can't ssh to my computer without the internet, how do I get it to work?
You don't need an internet connection to connect to machines on the local network. Just:
ssh user@IP.ADD.RE.SS # or, putty ...
will do. But, if you want networking in single-user mode:
root# hostname foo.localdomain # set own hostname
root# ifconfig lo0 127.0.0.1 # bring up loopback IF
root# mount -t tmpfs none /tmp # mount a RW /tmp
root# ifconfig # get IF list
root# dhclient -l /tmp/dh.lease -p /tmp/dh.pid re0 # req. ipaddr on IF
DHCPDISCOVER on re0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 4
DHCPDISCOVER on re0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 9
DHCPDISCOVER on re0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 21
DHCPOFFER from 192.168.1.1
DHCPREQUEST on re0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67
DHCPACK from 192.168.1.1
bound to 192.168.1.106 -- renewal in 3600 seconds. # <-- your ipaddr
root# ping -4nc5 google.com # check IPv4 conn.
root#
(Getting WiFI to work is a few more steps...)
rvp You don't need an internet connection to connect to machines on the local network. Just:
ssh user@IP.ADD.RE.SS # or, putty ...
I don't know my ip address, ifconfig doesn't show ip adress without internet
unicorn That ps -Au
should've been done in multi-use mode, but, never mind. I can't see anything wrong so far. Let's see if this is a general issue or just an Xorg/slim
issue:
- In
slim
, do the LEDs light up when you press the CapsLock/NumLock keys? - Can you disable/comment-out
slim
in/etc/rc.conf
then reboot and check if input works?

unicorn but neither
startx
You will have to update the DRMKMS modules to match the current kernel (see below).
Post /var/log/Xorg.0.log
, also the output of: id
.
unicorn nor
pkg update
works.
I think for -BETA, -STABLE and -CURRENT, you have to build from source.
OK, I see that binary packages are available for -14 and also -15.
Does this work: use latest
instead of quarterly
(which are only for -RELEASE branches)
mkdir -p /usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/
cp -pv /etc/pkg/FreeBSD.conf /usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/.
sed -i '' -e '/url:/s/quarterly/latest/' /usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/FreeBSD.conf
uid=1001(unicorn) gid=1001(unicorn) groups=1001(unicorn),0(wheel),145(webcamd)
You have to be a member of group video
[ 29.753] (EE) open /dev/dri/card0: No such file or directory
[ 29.753] (WW) Falling back to old probe method for modesetting
[ 29.753] (EE) open /dev/dri/card0: No such file or directory
DRMKMS drivers not loaded. (See prev. post--binary package for -14 may work)

unicorn I run commands but nothing happens
$ fgrep video /etc/group
video:*:44:rvp
$
You'll have to logout and login for the change to take effect.
unicorn I had upgraded to 14.0 BETA2, can't run pkg it says missing
libssl.so.111
.
Hmm. FreeBSD 14 has switched to OpenSSL 3, so:
a) You're using the wrong binary (run /usr/sbin/pkg
instead of /usr/local/sbin/pkg
), or,
b) the /usr/sbin/pkg
binary never got updated, or,
c) The update process didn't get rid of all of the old libraries that pkg
depended on. ie. you now have a mix of old and new libraries being used by pkg
.
I recommend a clean install. (But, try running /usr/sbin/pkg clean -ay; /usr/sbin/pkg update; /usr/sbin/pkg upgrade
first)
FreeBSD 14.0 reboots automatically several times, I thought GhostBSD might work but it didn't.
I had downloaded NetBSD 10.0 boot.iso, but balenaEtcher said missing partition table, how can I make a bootable USB stick?
