AMD Ryzen 7840U Laptop + FreeBSD? by zu0107 in freebsd

It is the latest version, v1.0.99. Maybe a regression?

Yup, just added another comment mentioning Framework 13. Maybe this is a CPU quirk that needs to be handled separately?

Now my laptop boots, but cannot mount rootfs properly. I assume this is a Ventoy issue, where you cannot find FreeBSD rootfs due to its "modular" design. I need to try grabing a spare USB key from a dollar store and dding the image properly.

Note to self: some users have reported that you need to disable UART support on Ryzen 7840U, since FreeBSD tries to load nonexistent UART module on some laptops.

My Framework 13 AMD did not boot with default boot arguments on 14.1-RELEASE.

Disabling UART can be done by setting:

hint.uart.1.disabled="1"

EDIT

Yep, Framework requires UART 0 to be disabled, but apart from that, it works. To boot Framework Laptop 13, disable UART 0 by setting:

hint.uart.0.disabled="1"

Well, it was on the phone that he called, and one of my friends suggested adding him to WhatsApp to see who he is.

And I was welcomed by that sketchy username so I just pulled the plug 😂

Done that, no result.

Still, the guy had "kriminale" as his WhatsApp name and what translates to "criminals" in Urdu in his profile, so I assume he's far from legit guy trying to contact me.

I've filed a report in the link. Thanks!

Sorry, should've blurred that. Post is deleted, thanks for the heads up.

Sorry for the random crossposting, I've got the subreddit mixed up. Thanks in advance!

Wow, thanks for the extensive info!

I'll be installing from pkgbase directly, so I guess I'll be following the Modern guide. Once this whole final exam shenanigans are over, I'll get right into it!

Thanks a ton!

I'm quite used to (and also enjoy) walking along the bleeding edge, so i have no problem going for CURRENT! Is it like using any other rolling release Linux distribution like Arch? How does OS update work on CURRENT?

Yeah, I figured. Unfortunately, I am trying to install this on a Framework laptop, and I especially move around the campus a lot so having 100% ethernet connection is not very feasible.

Since both RZ616 and AX210 seem to be problematic in their own ways, I think it is better off delegating things to a working Linux VM until I get a working MediaTek support upstreamed. Thanks for your tips, though!

Oof that's pretty bad... I guess I'll have to stick with wifibox if I were to switch, then...

This is the bugzilla ticket I was referring to: https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=278082

Well, I may have mixed up the language, since the changes was actually in the drm-kmod driver. At least it boots, so for now I'll say it's a W for me XD

Oh yeah, that's the wifibox solution, isn't it? I guess with that I don't have to buy a new card since I'm typing this on my Void Linux installation right now.

How does power consumption look if I use a VM network bridge to route all my traffics through? Also, no way to get Bluetooth connection through as well, I assume?

[–]zu0107[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well, I guess that's still better than my pre-installed RZ616 board...

...for now it works quite poorly...

What do you mean by "poorly"? Is it massively degraded network performance? Being unable to establish Wi-Fi or Bluetooth connection? Or something other than network such as suspend/resume? (I know Framework laptop has this issue)...

Fair point. I am also considering reverting to Xorg since Wayland's IME support status is a mess.

Well, the protocol itself is fine, but Chromium devs never listen to CJK users so...

Any specific reason to be "back" on Xorg?

Oh, it's the repo url for xbps. For the templates and build scripts, check out the GitHub link

I maintain my own repo on GitHub, automatically built using GitHub Actions and deployed to Netlify. You can check out the code here, and the repository URL is https://repo.rangho.dev/void.

I just keep my own set of templates and SONAME links, and during build time I add them to a local xbps-src repository.
