On both Celeron N3050 and Intel Pentium N3700 laptops, the live iso won't load. Instead it will fall to TTY screen. Are they not supported?
Is Celeron and Pentium CPU's not supported? I am falling back to TTY
- Edited
If you made it to a TTY screen, then the processor works. What might not have been assigned was the specific GPU device ID that the system uses as there may not be an entry in xconfig app to get X11 setup correctly.
Here is a script you can use to tell us your GPU information. We can decipher the information and possible adjust xconfig if driver support exists.
#!/bin/sh
pciconf -l | grep vgapci | \
while read -r line; do
dev=$(echo "$line" | awk '{print $1}' | sed 's/:$//')
echo "==> $dev"
pciconf -lv "$dev" | grep -E 'vendor|device'
echo
done
If you can get to a TTY screen with a prompt, you can use vim.
Sometimes I just type:
pciconf -lv | less
This provides the full input and puts it into a screen sized display. The human eyes will need find the VGAPCI device.
On my machine it looks like
vgapci0@pci0:21:0:0: class=0x030000 rev=0xa1 hdr=0x00 vendor=0x10de device=0x1c82 subvendor=0x196e subdevice=0x11bf
vendor = 'NVIDIA Corporation'
device = 'GP107 [GeForce GTX 1050 Ti]'
class = display
subclass = VGA
brianthehughes It might be worth considering whether this can be streamlined for integration into another application, such as xconfig. Contributing to the GhostBSD community often feels like living in a Black Mirror episode, many observe, but few take action. Hopefully, a GhostBSD hackathon will inspire more engagement and momentum within the community.
