Comment on NetBSD 9.3

Comments

I wanted to run NetBSD as a daily driver but the Intel 3945ABG wifi performance was horrible, it disconnected after a few minutes with a fatal firmware error, there was no clean way to get it working again. I will try these versions. I went through FreeBSD and I liked it. I don't give up.

Ouch! Same result with 9.3, I couldn't install Xfce, wifi broken after a few seconds.

Have you reported the bug to NetBSD ?

wpi%d: fatal firmware error For some reason, the firmware crashed. The driver will reset the hardware. This should not happen.

They know.
