Well I don't know about that. I can't open Settings in Chromium at all anymore, the whole browser crashes. It also constantly uses 100% CPU for something so with Chromium open my load is always >1.
In VirtualBox none of the file open dialogs work.
If I switch to a console from X the whole screen glitches and gets stuck, I have to SSH in to restart/stop X.
Suspend doesn't work for me.
So yeah, it doesn't work on the desktop as well as Linux does. Haven't had any problems with it as a server though.
- swills 11y agoThe Chromium issue was fixed recently. Try updating your Chromium to at least 43.0.2357.132. The VirtualBox issue is long standing, it's caused by the fact that vbox is setuid. Try this: env KDE_FORK_SLAVES=1 VirtualBox
- noinsight 11y agoThanks, that fixed it.
- not_with_retard 11y agoIt's amazing what you can do if you actually use Google.
- X-Istence 11y agoThere is a bug in the kernel that returns the wrong error message when Chrome/Chromium attempts to get a variable. This will be fixed in 10.2. See: https://twitter.com/cperciva/status/619969753566744576 https://twitter.com/cperciva/status/619969753566744576
- kev009 11y agoVirtualbox - sounds like some kind of ports problem, maybe GTK vs Qt? Works for me on PC-BSD and FreeBSD -CURRENT under KDE. Suspend/resume should be working pretty well in -CURRENT, unfortunately 11.0 is still a ways out if you want a -RELEASE.
- swills 11y agoOh and about the X thing, do you have a Haswell processor? And are you using the VGA driver for X? I had that, bought a $20 ATI card, works fine now, 3D acceleration in KWM and everything.
- noinsight 11y agoSandy Bridge actually, i7 2600k. I have an ATI card too, I might try that. Wasn't too sure how well those work on FreeBSD.
