I do have to note one thing: I started out with LXQT since many applications I use are QT-based. Audio is also clunky, whether listening to music on the console or during an X11 session. At any rate, memory and CPU usage is problematic. I imagine it has, though I'm not sure to what degree. I'm not sure if the fact that I set up an encrypted swap & home partition with cgd (aes-xts 512) has had any impact on performance. On the other hand, I'm afraid it's not going to cut it as a daily driver for me, at least not on this laptop.

I generally dislike bluetooth and avoid it but for those who need it, it seems to me it worked on this machine. I only tested audio output and did not attempt to record anything.īluetooth seems to work although I didn't venture beyond activating the controller and scanning for pairable devices using the official documentation (see here). Speaking of the touchpad, that also worked out of the box, including mouse tapping so no need for any additional configuration there.Īudio mostly just works but, as you'll see below, it does have issues of its own. The only caveat here is that the mouse seemed to be disabled after resuming a session although the touchpad kept working just fine. Suspend-to-RAM + resume (which I lazily tend to refer to as 'hibernation') worked out of the box.

Virtually all of the applications I use on a daily basis (including some that are dispensable, like Strawberry music player) are available with pkgin. Thanks to hplip and cups I was able to set up printing as well. Connecting to a Linux machine over ssh, sftp or setting up nfs? No problem at all. Wireless worked thanks to the iwm driver.

I experienced no issues connecting over WiFi ( wpa_supplicant + dhcpcd) or ethernet.

I did opt for full disk encryption at first but then my wifi driver wouldn't load at boot so I just reinstalled and went for an encrypted home/swap setup instead. I also managed to set up an encrypted home and swap partition using cgd. It's highly configurable, bloat-free, and has that 'do-it-yourself' attitude, with helpful man pages and pretty good documentation to get you started. Overall, I have a very favorable impression of NetBSD. See link to dmesg output below for full details.
