--- Comment #15 from Graham Perrin <[email protected]> --- (In reply to Graham Perrin from comment #9) > The requirement to specify a repository was noted a few months ago, > > <https://lists.freebsd.org/archives/freebsd-ports/2024-December/007016.html> In that case, <https://gist.github.com/grahamperrin/0bfcd7bbc162e92d9b2176bcdf4f888b> involved installation of the meta package: drm-kmod ---- Note that where the FreeBSD-kmods repo is used, the --repository option (-r) is _not always_ required. In the screenshot at <https://imgur.com/WL9sAwo> there's attention to a packaged kernel module – not to be confused with the meta package. Note that two versions of the package are found. In this case, installing drm-61-kmod _does_ install the appropriate version from the FreeBSD-kmods repo, without specifying the repo. Discussion: * <https://www.reddit.com/r/freebsd/comments/1ldqocy/comment/myemi60/?context=2>. For documentation purposes, <https://docs.freebsd.org/en/books/faq/> should have a question with an answer like the one below. ---- FreeBSD 14.3-RELEASE is preconfigured to use a FreeBSD-kmods repository. This repo provides packages for many commonly required kernel modules that are non-base – not integral to FreeBSD. The command below should ensure that available packages are used: pkg upgrade --repository FreeBSD-kmods -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
