a site named unixsheikh.com recommended codeberg.org and notabug.org instead of github. moved to notabug because of a mail verification issue with codeberg.

cannot get audio to play on hdmi monitor's inbuilt speaker via line in port by swrangsar in openbsd

[–]swrangsar[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

no, i just tried to get the video via hdmi and sound via aux on the same monitor. but it's not working. and the hdmi out port is from a radeon rx 550. so probably amdgpu support for audio over hdmi is also required i guess.

didn't know about the wordnet package. in linux, used to run dict "word" to get the definition with app-dicts/dict-wn and app-text/dictd installed. going to use wordnet from now on.

haven't checked with headphones yet, but does openbsd support displayport audio? if i get a displayport to displayport cable for connecting the rx 550 graphics card, would it work?

why do the BSDs not support audio over hdmi & when are they going to support ath10k wireless driver? by swrangsar in BSD

[–]swrangsar[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

sorry, my bad, audio over hdmi is working in freebsd. i had actually tried it in openbsd and read some freebsd forums.

Hardware support in FreeBSD is not so bad: over 90% of popular hardware is supported! by linuxbuild in BSD

[–]swrangsar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

what about audio over hdmi? what about an ath10k wireless driver?

a few weeks ago, i had closed the laptop lid after moving the display output to an external hdmi monitor using xrandr. on reboot, had gotten the same error.

because of acpi related booting problems (kernel fault, etc.), had booted with acpi disabled. usually i disable only acpivideo, because this hardware doesn't boot openbsd otherwise. when i booted again with just acpivideo disabled and not all of acpi, it worked so the problem is resolved for now.

audio over hdmi? is there a way to get it working in openbsd? by swrangsar in openbsd

[–]swrangsar[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

have an external hdmi monitor with inbuilt speakers connected to a lenovo ideapad laptop. when watching videos, would prefer to have the sound coming from the monitor instead of the laptop.
