If you created a backup of your environment using Update Station, you can revert to the previous boot environment (BE) using Backup Station and restart your system. After rebooting, open Update Station and proceed with the upgrade.

I don't know if this falls into the category of FR. It looks more like a bug to me.
I tried again yesterday with a PC I had lying around and the issue is there too:

I create a boot USB with the image
I boot the PC using it
Result: I have no touchpad. This did not happen in the previous version.

paaguti Reinstall using the GhostBSD 25.01-R14.2p1 ISO file. GhostBSD 24.01 is deprecated.
Once you reinstall, try the following.

Place the following into /usr/local/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/40-libinput.conf:

Section "InputClass"
Identifier "libinput touchpad catchall"
MatchDriver "libinput"
MatchIsTouchpad "on"
MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*"
Option "Tapping" "on"
#Option "AccelSpeed" "0.2"
EndSection

Latest release works great for me on an older laptop from 2012, including the Atheros Wifi module that's on it.

Still working out the kinks for a newer laptop that I want to install it on. The Live USB detects the GTX 1050 GPU... loads the driver and attempts to load the desktop... partially freezes. Hopefully I can figure that out soon, more details in another post I started yesterday. vimanuelt has been helpful so far. 🙂

Robin I followed the procedure in GhostBSD's documentation, "forcing" an update with -f . That seemed to work but it re-installed every little thing. …

As far as I know, the force in this case was required for the detected downgrade.

Yes, that was correct behavior during the migration from STABLE to RELEASE.

Also, using sudo pkg upgrade -f will reinstall packages; that is expected behavior.
