This is my 1st experience with FreeBSD, I've been using Linux Mint for the last few years so have some experience with terminal, but I'm not overly technical. I followed trihexagonal's instalation tutorial (trihexagonal org/tutorial html). And got as far as typing startx before encountering a terminal error.
From the searching I've done it appears it is a problem with video drivers.
System HP EliteBook 840 G1 Notebook PC
CPU Intel Core i5-4300U CPU
Graphics Intel HD Graphics 4400
Error received Cannot run in framebuffer mode. Please specify busIDs for all framebuffer devices
I've attached a photo of the screen with the error messages. The laptop has a BIOS and I included VESA drivers as well as all the Intel graphic drivers I seen when I installed.
As I am not proficient with FeddBSD, if you need more information please be explicit as to how I should obtain it. The same with instituting any solution. I used ports for this install, I'm not above starting over with packages but would prefer not to, this is a learning exercise more than anything.
