Nonetheless I am deeply in love already with True-OS, so I will probably just re-install, while yesterday I spent half the day on that, particularly on initial configurations and finding my way around, today it is probably going to be one or two hours only. As far as I see, True-OS is currently pretty much identical with FreeBSD-current(13), and I do want to stick with it, because it is supposed to be desktop-optimized, some specific True-OS packages are there. In order to tell you the truth, I've tried it because Hugin is broken in Debian: > https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=927851 So I do need hardware-accelerated graphics in order to be able to assemble panoramic images, and I saw already, there is the Xorg-version 7.7, same as in Debian oldstable, so this should definitely be stable enough. > It is a very exciting time for FreeBSD graphics.

Yay, also true, boredom was yesterday, when we had no smartphones! -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iF0EARECAB0WIQTF9uNaslvnJpWt8kXn6sEfJS3nCwUCXUZnAAAKCRDn6sEfJS3n C/dqAJkBooMsT5IVneL/GpynQi8pMgDxmQCgkPq0D2iGxTaaDNc1d+qoO+nzaPE= =A369 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-x11 To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
