Check what is exactly the graphic card model into your processor and look at:

Chapter 5. The X Window System

This chapter describes how to install and configure Xorg on FreeBSD, which provides the open source X Window System used to provide a graphical environment

docs.freebsd.org

And

Graphics/AMD-GPU-Matrix - FreeBSD Wiki

have do
# pkg install drm-kmod
and
/etc/rc.conf file,
# sysrc kld_list+=amdgpu

errors server X

Emrion · Apr 20, 2024

You have to create a X11 conf file. Read well the handbook below the link I pointed.

LkderS4KGc2bFd63rM · Apr 20, 2024

Code:

no multi-card support

Do you have more than one graphics card?

First of all, check whether an entry in rc.conf with this syntax will work

Code:

kld_list="amdgpu"

or

Code:

#kldload amdgpu

philo_neo · Apr 20, 2024

no graphics card, before with Freebsd 13, X run as well without xorg.conf.
The processor have a chipset video, output is 4K definition.

this is the outputs :

same error
it don't find the video card

this is my /etc/rc.conf

Code:

hostname="hpc-pluton"
keymap="fr.kbd"
ifconfig_re0="DHCP"
ifconfig_re0_ipv6="inet6 accept_rtadv"
sshd_enable="YES"
moused_nondefault_enable="NO"
# Set dumpdev to "AUTO" to enable crash dumps, "NO" to disable
dumpdev="AUTO"
zfs_enable="YES"
dbus_enable="YES"
sddm_enable="YES"
sysrc kld_list+=amdgpu
kld_list="amdgpu"

Emrion · Apr 20, 2024

Remove "sysrc kld_list+=amdgpu" from your rc.conf. You didn't understand where this command has to be typed. But, kld_list="amdgpu" should be enough for that part of the config.

It lacks the X11 config file... Read once again the handbook.

LkderS4KGc2bFd63rM · Apr 21, 2024

General, sysrc kld_list+=amdgpu does not work. Skip this entry.

What does the command issued from the console say?

Code:

#kldstat

Now I have a session manager of KDE5.
the Xserver run well but the session manager when I'm logging block the computer.

LkderS4KGc2bFd63rM · Apr 22, 2024

I see that the module is loaded. Since the session manager probably KDM is blocking the computer, I suggest disabling all entries related to this nanager and try to enable xorg with:

Code:

#startx /usr/local/bin/startplsama-x11

But I'm not sure of programmname.

philo_neo · Apr 22, 2024

the session manager probably KDM is blocking the computer, what is the true rights for a classic user.
Maybe a command line doesn't in the config files.
The command ssh run as well, i forgot but there are a parametres for active the LDAP to session manager ?

LkderS4KGc2bFd63rM · Apr 22, 2024

The session manager starts with root privileges, is need to provide the path to the program that launches the rest of kde in its configuration file. (startplasma-x11) and the rest works with the user's preferences who run xorg. Other than that it doesn't matter, it should work any way.

I don't understand why you log in via SSH to the computer on which you want to run Xorg.
