Hi
New FreeBSD user here. I've managed to install free bsd fine - I've also installed Xorg and a desktop environment. The issue lies with my graphics.
I'm running a haswell system (macbook pro 15" retina late 2012 A1398). I've tried both drm-kmod and drm-legacy-kmod.
Results of loading the legacy module (through rc.conf) are a blank screen - so no good
Results of the other module are that it loads fine and I can run X no problem. Good stuff.
The problem is that even without an X session - i.e. just a console, my cpu is up around 70%. If I comment out the
line in my rc.conf then I don't have my graphics active and the cpu drops to normal (confirming it's the i915 module).
Are there some special options to set to stop this behavior? Any help debugging this issue would be appreciated.
Some output below (please let me know what else might be required)
Hopefully someone might be able to help
Kind Regards
Rob
