GhostBSD 19.09 wrong drm-version

Post by guckux »

I've tried just to install the GhostBSD Version 19.09, having trouble with amdgpu-driver, due to the console report, that the version ist wrong - it is not the correct version from the drm-modul in relation to the Systemversion.

Trying to compile the drm module, but get the error, that no cc was found - obviously I had installed the llvm90... Hugh?

Hey guys, i need a cc compiler running, but there is no cc on ghostbsd, what package do i need to install to get it?
you need to install os-generic-userland-devtools

Hope this helps you out.

Thx Fred - this helps...
I am using several years FreeBSD as server-system... looking now for a replace of the discontinued TrueOS.
- so at the moment, I learn s.th. about ghostbsd... (linux is no alternative for me :) )

The steps to solve my problem:
# pkg install src os-generic-userland-devtools
# cd /usr/src/
# make installkernel
# reboot
# pkg install portmaster # I use this on my server)
# portmaster --force-config graphics/drm-fbsd12.0-kmod
# reboot

didn't help - "X11 was starting with blank screen" ? and a cursor, which allows typing, mouse-cursor freezed and no (respectivly slow) reaction on alt-F1 or Ctrl-alt-F1...
last commands for switching to terminal repeated a few times and after a time (few minutes?) it switches to Terminal...
dmesg seems to be clean - amdgpu was loaded, xorg.log seems to be clean...
I found some configuration in /etc/x11/xorg.conf - delete this file.
Also, I found /usr/local/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-radeon.conf - delete this file
Restarting - the system comes up with no X11, starting X with startx - it works and is using my R9 270X graphic card - so far so fine...

wondering, where I have killed the automatic xlogin...? ;)

Bye

It has changed lately. See https://ghostbsd-documentation-portal.r ... n-ghostbsd, and you now have to do sudo pkg install -g 'GhostBSD*-dev'
