I've tried Free and Open and Dragon etc. When I landed on Ghost I had troubles as stated in my first post, but I could sense that there is some...

Create USB Stick on Mac

NVIDIA Switchable / Primus working?

Hello,

I have a Notebook with Intel/NVIDIA 1050 GTX switchable Graphics. It works with Ubuntu like a charm. Is there a chance to get NVIDIA Graphics working on current GhostBSD without spending much time to configure it?

Re: DVD Drive does not work

I don´t know if that may help or not, on my ThinkPad it only upgraded the automount. On my other Notebook It upgraded from 20.03 to 20.04, I suppose.

Re: DVD Drive does not work

Hello again,

on my Thinkpad where I did a fresh and clean install of GhostBSD 20.04 it still does not work. I still get the same error as in my second post, after the automount upgrade. My automount Version is 1.7.3 there.
