Juno on Nostr: So the KVM switch setup worked fine on NetBSD too, but running it on this box ...
So the KVM switch setup worked fine on NetBSD too, but running it on this box reminded me of an issue I have with it.
Whenever the system boots with the monitor turned off (or in this case, the KVM switch toggled to the other machine), the boot process hangs. If I unplug the monitor/KVM the system boots normally. It also boots normally with the monitor on or toggled to it.
This happens even if the machine is plugged directly, so regardless of the KVM switch.
I've found some trails of this issue being reported, but no solution...

The thread is recent, with the last message on Apr 21st 2024.
Also, this solution did not work for me: https://marc.info/?l=netbsd-users&m=171366297626243&w=2
For now I'll be running just FreeBSD on this one, but I'd appreciate any help in making NetBSD also work.
