Porting X11Libre to FreeBSD

An effort for porting X11libre to FreeBSD. (https://news.1rj.ru/str/x11dev for dev discussions)

After cloning, you can use the OVERLAY option in the /etc/make.conf to overlay this folder to your main tree. Use a jail for testing, so that your packages won't get messed up.

https://github.com/cbsd/microbhyve

This article describes how to generate a minimalistic image of the FreeBSD OS (architecture: amd64) for the bhyve virtual machine using the jail2iso noscript of the CBSD project as an example. As a result of these works, we get a 12MB distribution kit and a working network stack with the ability to remotely access via SSH, as well as a set of elementary Unix utilities. The consumption of RAM by such an installation in multi-user mode does not exceed 80MB

https://github.com/pavetheway91/tarbsd

tarBSD is a minimal (well, depends on chosen features and packages) FreeBSD image that boots to memory. Most of it is stored in a tar archive mounted at /usr. tarBSD is not a distribution unto itself. Instead, this repository gives you a tool to build your own version of it.

FreeBSD 15.0 Aims To Have A KDE Desktop Install Option

"For FreeBSD 15.0, our goal is to extend the FreeBSD installer to offer a minimal KDE-based desktop as an install option. The initial concept is a low-interaction installation process that, upon completion, brings the user directly to a KDE graphical login screen.

We are currently evaluating the required pkg dependencies to automatically select appropriate graphics drivers."
