Yes, it’s xfce. It’s a bit odd I did not observe this at all earlier, but this 
suggestion seems to have helped.

Thanks!

All the best,

Sorry, wrong dmesg link (although it is possible I could resurrect that one too 
if need be). The correct links are in the article, with the more recent lifted 
from there at https://home.nuug.no/~peter/20170927_dmesg_greyhame.txt

It would be interesting to hear what hardware this needs to be exposed to.

Would something like my 2017 vintage Clevo (dmesg at 
https://www.bsdly.net/~peter/dmesg_clevo_W840SU_20150220.txt 
, the install 
saga at  https://bsdly.blogspot.com/2017/07/openbsd-and-modern-laptop.html 
) something 
that could be usefully exposed to a fresh amd64 snapshot combined with a new 
drm510 kernel?

I still have that one lying around, so I could stand the noise for some test 
runs if there’s a chance to help resolve any outstanding issues.

All the best,
Peter

Yes, of course, excellent!

And a few minutes later, I can report that with that patch applied, halt -p 
works as expected.

So I would be very pleased to see this go in.

Thanks so much for taking the time to look into this!

dmesg at https://www.bsdly.net/~peter/dmesg_asus_zenbook_s_20210526a.txt 


pcidump -v https://www.bsdly.net/~peter/pcidump_-v_asus_zenbook_s_20210526a.txt 

(Which suffers from some of the same as the sendbug output in that after a 
while it appears to loop forever on an unknown capability, so I stopped it 
after reaching some 400+ megabytes)

All the best,
Peter

I just did a sendbug. It went by really fast so I hope it actually contains the 
required information.

Re: Doesn't work Intel Wireless AC-9560 wifi card

Hi,

Unfortunately this is as expected.

iwm(4) is among the drivers that require a bit of proprietary firmware to be 
loaded for the device to work. For reasons known only to somebody at Intel, 
they never granted the OpenBSD project permission to redistribute the firmware 
with the operating system installer.

The workaround is to perform the install using a network interface that either 
does not require firmware or that will work with redistributable firmware.

The installer will detect the presence of the iwm(4) device and download the 
firmware so the device will start working once the firmware is present and 
loaded.

This question turns up frequently enough that it might be useful to put into 
the FAQ somewhere.

Whether or not the firmware files have been corrupted is relatively easy to 
check, at least - doas fw_update -v will report any errors. Then fw_update -d 
the damaged drivers and reinstall them with fw_update driver.

(I had to do exactly that while fiddling with my new ASUS laptop a little while 
back, the article is fairly close to the first url in my .signature)

What you describe can be achieved fairly straightforwardly with a siteNM.tgz 
that contains the required files and the script to perform the package install 
at the tail end of the install process.

Take a few moments to read https://www.openbsd.org/faq/faq4.html#site and 
you’re quite a bit of the way there.
