Re: Can't login mate DE lightdm after upgrade
Unfortunately, I have not done any backup works, so waiting a workround. (I have tried several methods from google, and it doesn't work.) Oh, sorry to hear that. Since I am not familiar with FreeBSD, I decided to do a zfs snapshot before any upgrading. ZFS snapshot is a great and easy backup way to...

Re: lost Xorg with new nvidia drivers
The time stamp on the OS packages was wrong, so the update manager did not do OS upgrade and the new Nvidia packages were built for the new kernel, pkg upgrade was needed to fix the issue. I have fixed the time stamp issue and the update manager should update it properly now. if anyone does not hav...

Ensure you keep the previous nvidia driver txz package on your local ls /var/cache/pkg/nvidia-driver-440.82.txz 3. remove current inst...
