I have just installed NomadBSD on my LENOVO T430. Impressive. Works perfect, all hardware are working, including the pad. Very nice. I have decided to keep it on my laptop as daily driver.
Package manager is nice too and snappy.
Obviously there are some software issues which I am unable to resolve…
-
There is no wireless icon on top panel.
-
gxkb does nothing. It just shows “About and Quit”.
-
I can change my keyboard temporarily but not permanently. I added command to .xinitrc just before the last source, Still will not change. The console, has the correct keyboard in rc.conf.
-
After installation I rebooted. Now I cannot login unless I log in on the console first, then Slim will let me in.
-
I added a HDD (internal). Created partition and formatted it as a ZFS file system and created the file system. The disk manager can see the drive, i can mount, and do my work there. Obviously the mount is temporary. So i added a line to etc/fstab But it refused to mount, and says no such device even though it is there in /dev and i can use use form desktop. i tried to mount manually, same error, “No such device”.
-
I cannot change wallpaper, nothing happens.
-
the keyboard, when pressing a key it repeats as it should but not when going backward (left arrow). Observed in shell and all applications.
-
Question. Can use the FreeBSD package collection? i haven’t tried yet.
-
Does Octopkg has all the packages provided by FreeBSD?

My brain went numb
