Video concerns on BSD upgrades
Posted: Sun Mar 31, 2019 11:42 pm
I was concerned about talk regarding changes made to trueos/freebsd that would affect the video on older PCs in future upgrades. I have tried Trident but ran into trouble with every, almost weekly, update. The 'no video' problem can be sorted but it takes a bit of work and even then you have a only a 'half-baked' os!
Naturally I was concerned when I tried GhostBSD13. RC1 so I installed on a USB to see the result.............the installer introduced a page which allowed you to select a choice of video ?drivers............on my older machine I selected vesa and everything went well and the installation is OK and the video works.
