Thanks everyone for all the feedback, testing, and suggestions! I'm currently fixing things up and getting a version ready for bsdinstall.

Call for testing for a script that installs #KDE #PLASMA on a #FreeBSD desktop or laptop. Testing is aimed at users who already know FreeBSD, for example who can configure /etc/rc.conf and /boot/loader.conf.
I’m especially interested in feedback from people with NVIDIA GPUs, since I don’t have this hardware myself.

Discussion to figure out which packages to install and which configurations to use for #NVIDIA GPUs (for example x11/nvidia-xconfig, linux_enable="YES", and so on): https://lists.freebsd.org/archives/freebsd-desktop/2026-January/007438.html

Installing FuryBSD and Feeling Like a *Newb*

I just found an old project in my repositories: a script to install a graphical environment using some checklist on FreeBSD. Unfortunately the project remained incomplete.

...Work in progress 👨‍💻 to complete the utility, it will be available in a new project/repository!
