Hi,
I upgraded my desktop, and so far there are three problems:
- The network does not come up automatically; I have to click the network manager and "Enable" the wired interface for the DHCP client to start
- I cannot PING any hostname that resolves with an IPv6 address; I do _not_ have IPv6 on the interface, but it gives me "ping: UDP connect: No route to host". 12-STABLE did not have this issue.
- SVG icons in menus etc. do not work, and I cannot select an SVG file as icon for an application (it only lists PNG files in the dialog)
I realise it's early and risky to move to 13, but I could not wait.
Thanks for your efforts,
Eirik @ Modirum

Re: Upgrading to newer versions of GhostBSD base on 13-STABLE
for the ping issue, just enter "ping -4 host", the options ping -4 and ping -6 are new to FreeBSD 13, for details just enter man ping.
Hope it helps with this one issue.

@ltning What is your driver? Can you give me the output of ifconfig?ltning wrote: ↑Sun May 02, 2021 4:18 pm Hi,

In 13.0, for some reason some times ping default to IPv6. Use ping -4 to ping with IPv4.
For the icon, look at https://forums.ghostbsd.org/viewtopic.php?p=9420#p9420. It might help you to fix the issue.

Realtek interface - this is after hitting 'enable' in network manager:
Code: Select all
re0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500
options=8209b<RXCSUM,TXCSUM,VLAN_MTU,VLAN_HWTAGGING,VLAN_HWCSUM,WOL_MAGIC,LINKSTATE>
ether 00:01:2e:95:66:e7
inet 192.168.3.156 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.3.255
media: Ethernet autoselect (1000baseT <full-duplex>)
status: active
nd6 options=2b<PERFORMNUD,ACCEPT_RTADV,IFDISABLED,AUTO_LINKLOCAL>
Yeah but I have another 13-laptop and I don't have this problem. It also does not have IPv6 configured, so I don't understand why ping on GhostBSD is trying to use IPv6 at all.
Thanks, I'll be trying this soon.ericbsd wrote: ↑Mon May 03, 2021 6:44 am For the icon, look at https://forums.ghostbsd.org/viewtopic.php?p=9420#p9420. It might help you to fix the issue.

I was able to reproduce it on my laptop with em0. I will try to have a fix in by tonight or tomorrow.

PkgBase
This method of upgrading uses PkgBase, yes? (Wonderful …)
Postscript: I see it as comparable but not the same. GhostBSD using a set of packages that is broader than just base

I have tested the update this morning everything looks to work fine now.ltning wrote: ↑Mon May 03, 2021 12:55 pmRealtek (re) interface. I have not tried uninstalling networkmgr.grahamperrin wrote: ↑Sun May 02, 2021 8:27 pm What's the network hardware?

I have pushed the update, and after the update, dhcpcd should start fine.
@ltning Just one thing you will need to do to avoid the problems is to remove dhcpcd from boot services.
Code: Select all
sudo rc-update delete dhcpcd boot
Re: Upgrading to newer versions of GhostBSD base on 13-STABLE
Thank you, I can confirm that the network is now operational immediately after boot.
Icons and such are also working; though I cannot tell if it was due to my pkg install -f of the packages mentioned elsewhere in this thread, or the slew of updates that came through the updater today.
13 for the win! Thanks again!
