I've got a Thinkpad E470 laptop and I just installed the latest FreeBSD 12.0-CURRENT snapshot on it. I'd like to bring up the Windowing environment like KDE4 on it. So I've started to configure Xorg config files.
So, basically this laptop has two graphic cards (hybrid): Intel and Nvidia. (I couldnt find any option in BIOS to turn of the Nvidia card). and based on pciconf output I can tell that Intel card BusID is PCI:0:2:0 (Model: Intel HD Graphics 620)
So, what i did was :
1) adding i915kms kernel module to loader.conf
2) installing drm-next-kmod package
3) installing xorg-server package
4) installing xf86-video-intel package
and then:
1) Xorg -configure (to give me the initial file)
2) I've edited the xorg.conf and remove the secondary (nvidia) device from it
3) created driver-intel.conf and driver-scfb.conf in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/ with appropriate format
and just ran series of test on device Driver part (in xorg.conf file), vesa, scfb, ..
But all failed.
when I check Xorg.0.log file, I see modules and drivers are getting loaded succesfuly but at the end it says:
(WW) VGA arbiter: cannot open kernel arbiter, no multi-card support
(EE) Screen 0 deleted because of no matching config section.
(EE) no screen found(EE)
Has anybody brought up graphic interface on Thinkpad E470 that could share X config with me ?
How can i resolve this issue ?
