Eric,

The live usb runs fine (minus wifi). I went ahead and installed the dev release on an ssd in the caddy of my T430, and after a successful install, the boot process hangs with the message "BTX halted". No progression after that message. F.Y.I. ...

Sure that the next release is almost at the door, we are are a couple guys on Telegram trying to find all problem, and fix it. I have fixed my pkg sanity and did solve a couple of small problems. I think I will try to put a bit more time on adding a sanity check feature to the update manager. While...

There are some ports from GhostBSD that removed wallpaper and themes that I have fixed some I try to find if there is still some ports doing that. Just a few: mate-themes-3.22.14: almost all of it, lol. pangomm-2.40.1_1: missing file /usr/local/lib/pangomm-1.4/proc/m4/convert.m4 pangomm-2.40.1_1: m...

There are a lot of missing packages... Is there some legit reason for this? It's almost worth a re-install, lol.

Eh @Casper Use pkg check -d and pkg check pkg check -s to see if there is a pkg missing and the sanity of all packages. Reinstall packages with problem pkg install -yf pkg-name. "Checking all packages: 100%" for -d and -s. There were a bunch of checksum mismatch messages... Is it advisabl...

Maybe. I just tried it again. I don't use a screen saver, so the default is a blank screen with a prompt showing my name, the date & time, and asking for my password. When locked, the screen will accept mouse clicks, but won't accept key input. I've turned it off for now, since I'm the only one...

I just tried manually locking the screen, and it unlocked fine. I'll let my computer go idle, and I'll try it again. Maybe a MATE gremlin?

MATE. And I'm using a T430. It just recently started, and I haven't done anything to the system (i.e., update or upgrade to the FreeBSD base).

It sounds exactly like you want to have a copy of GhostBSD,on a usb, with persistence. That's what persistence is: having a usb with a copy of the operating system, along with a usable memory partition that you can use to save configuration changes such as wallpaper, bookmarks, etc., and also keep d...

When left idle, the screen lock will come on, requiring a password to unlock and continue using the computer. This has never previously given me any issues, but has just started locking without receiving any input from the keyboard or mouse, and I'm unable to enter my password to unlock and use the ...
