Stutters and lag in both tty and Xorg

The tty and Xorg stutters every couple seconds. I have a partition with Linux on it where there are no issues like this. I expected OpenBSD to be a bit slower (which I'm fine with for the extra security) but not lag like this. Specs: - MSI MPG X670E CARBON - AMD Ryzen 9 7900X 12-core 24-threads - AMD Radeon RX 7700 XT - 64GB of RAM @ 6000MHz - OpenBSD 7.5 I'm getting these concerning messages in `dmesg`: ``` drm:pid0:amdgpu_device_init *ERROR* gpu post error! drm:pid0:amdgpu_driver_load_kms *ERROR* Fatal error during GPU init drm1 detached amdgpu1 detached "ATI Raphael" rev 0xc2 at pci24 dev 0 function 0 not configured) ``` So my suspicion is that my GPU isn't being loaded properly. I've read that disabling ReBar in the BIOS would help, but it made no difference for me. I've also run `fw_update` to ensure that the firmware/drivers are installed: ``` fw_update: add none; update none; keep amd,amdgpu,vmm ``` Any help would be greatly appreciated!

How could I get started with BSD?

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.ca/post/23633869 > How could I get started with BSD? > > hello, > > I want to learn and deep dive into BSD systems. I am a Linux user for more than 3 years and now I am curious to learn and use BSD since BSD is similar to Linux and has binary compatibility. > > sadly my laptop wifi card isn't supported by any BSD systems. so I can't use it as my daily driver. so where should I go or do to learn more about BSD?

KDE6 on OpenBSD rsadowski.de

KDE launched version 6 of its Plasma desktop environment on February 28, 2024, bringing numerous updates and features as well as the major switch to Qt6. I am immensely proud that the OpenBSD team has managed to prepare for this major update so swiftly. All necessary components have been committed to our CVS tree, and the packages will soon be available. YES! KDE6 landed in OpenBSD -current

Why is the human option (-h) not default?

I frequently find myself needing to rerun commands with the -h flag, and I was just wondering why it is not the default behavior of programs to show sizes in human-readable terms?

Output of file(1) for UTF-8 encoded files

I'm trying to figure out if the following happens just to me or for everyone. If you have a file, let's call it "myfile", that you know is encoded in UTF-8, what is your output for: $ file myfile ? I have a freshly installed OpenBSD 7.3, where I think I've set the locale to en_US.UTF-8. If I manually make a file with some characters like "åäö", file outputs "ISO-8859 text". If I copy/paste some unicode characters from the web, file outputs "Non-ISO extended-ASCII text". If I send these files to a Linux computer and run file it outputs "UTF-8". Maybe relevant info: $ locale LANG= LC_COLLATE="C" LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 LC_MONETARY="C" LC_NUMERIC="C" LC_TIME="C" LC_MESSAGES="C" LC_ALL= $ env | grep "UTF" LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 XTERM_LOCALE=en_US.UTF-8
