- pkg-message:
- For install:
- ## Missing features
Some features found on Windows, macOS and Linux are not implemented:
- Encrypted Media Extensions (requires Widevine CDM binary)
- Process sandboxing (requires Capsicum backend)
- Reduced memory usage (requires mozjemalloc)
- Crash Reporter (requires Google Breakpad and reproducible builds)
- WebVR (requires open source runtime)
- TCP fast open
- `about:networking#networkid` (requires link state notification)
## Audio backend
Currently used audio backend can be inspected on `about:support` page.
Supported backends and default probing order is as follows:
- `pulse-rust` if `pulseaudio` package is installed (PULSEAUDIO option)
- `jack` if `jackit` package is installed (JACK option)
- `sndio` if `sndio` package is installed (SNDIO option)
- `alsa` if `alsa-lib` package is installed (ALSA option)
- `oss` (always available)
To force a specific backend open `about:config` page and create
`media.cubeb.backend` preference.
Microphone selection only works in `oss`, `pulse-rust` backends.
Other backends are limited to `default` which is usually `/dev/dsp`,
so use virtual_oss to reroute microphones from non-default devices.
## Gamepad API
Requires evdev(4) joystick support. On FreeBSD 13 and later enable hgame(4)
while older versions can use sysutils/iichid or multimedia/webcamd.
## smb:// issues
Network group, machine, and share browsing does not work correctly.
## sftp://
Only sftp access using public key authentication works. To easily
setup public key authentication to `remote_host`:
$ ssh-keygen
$ cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub | ssh remote_host "cat >> .ssh/authorized_keys"
The SSH server on `remote_host` must allow pub key authentication.

www/firefox: drop obsolete patch
In Skia m125 all extra ARM feature detection was removed
(ref skia 571b4cf2e359), so we do not have to roll our own.
This also should fix built on ARM, which was failing over
the detection of native CRC32 instructions (which are not used
anymore by Skia, and whose dis-use triggered the whole feature
detection removal)
