<h2>NomadBSD 130R-20210508 Errata</h2>

<h3>pkg upgrade: e2fsprogs-nobootfsck-1.46.4_1 conflicts with e2fsprogs-1.46.2</h3>
<p>
<h4>Description</h4>
<p>The package @PORT@(sysutils/e2fsprogs) now has the nobootfsck FLAVOR enabled (e2fsprogs-nobootfsck). This results in a conflict when trying to upgrade the locked @PORT@(sysutils/e2fsprogs) package.</p>

<h4>Solution</h4>
<p>Unlock the package, and continue with the upgrade.</p>
<p class="code">
# pkg unlock -y e2fsprogs <br>
# pkg upgrade <br>
</p>
</p>

<h3>Package upgrade breaks autostart of applications</h3>
<p>
<h4>Description</h4>
<p>
DSBAutostart creates desktop files for autostarting programs. The desktop
files are read and executed by a script which is part of Openbox. This script
uses the Python module @PORT@(devel/py-xdg/). Since @PORT@(lang/python/) and 
@PORT@(lang/python3/) now default to version 3.9 of Python, `py37-xdg` is no 
longer appropriate.</p>

<h4>Solution</h4>
<p>
Install py39-xdg:
</p>
<p class="code">
# pkg install devel/py-xdg
</p>
</p>

<h3>Python upgrade breaks dsbxinput, nomadbsd-chusr, and lbi-gui</h3>
<p>
<h4>Description</h4>
<p>
Due to the upgrade of Python, the Qt5 python module packages changed from
py37-qt5-* to py38-qt5-*. This breaks dsbxinput, nomadbsd-chusr, lbi-gui,
and ipfwGUI.
</p>
<h4>Solution</h4>
<p>
Change the shebang of dsbxinput and nomadbsd-chusr:
</p>
<p class="code">
# sed -i '' 's/python3.7/python3.8/' /usr/local/bin/dsbxinput <br>
# sed -i '' 's/python3.7/python3.8/' /usr/local/bin/lbi-gui <br>
# sed -i '' 's/python3.7/python3.8/' /usr/bin/nomadbsd-chusr <br>
# sed -i '' 's/python3.7/python3.8/' /usr/local/bin/ipfwGUI <br>
</p>
</p>

<h3>HDD/SSD installed NomadBSD doesn't start the GUI on systems which require
nvidia-driver &gt; 390</h3>
<p>
<h4>Description</h4>
<p>
Due to the version upgrade from 440 to 460 of @PORT@(x11/nvidia-driver/),
the NomadBSD installer fails to install nvidia-driver-440.
</p>
<h4>Solution</h4>
<p>
Install @PORT@(x11/nvidia-driver/) and make the modules load via
<span class="mono">/etc/rc.conf</span>:
</p>
<p class="code">
# pkg install x11/nvidia-driver <br> 
# sysrc kld_list+=" /boot/modules/nvidia-modeset.ko /boot/modules/nvidia.ko" <br>
# sysrc initgfx_enable=NO <br>
</p> <br>
<p>If the file <span class="mono"> 
/usr/local/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/00-video-initgfx.conf</span> does not
exist, or doesn't contain the line <span class="mono">Driver "nvidia"</span>,
create the file with the following content:
</p>
<p class="code">
Section "Device" <br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Identifier    "NVIDIA CARD" <br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;VendorName    "NVIDIA Corporation" <br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Driver        "nvidia" <br>
EndSection <br>
</p> <br>

After a reboot the GUI should start.
