Hello. I've been using FreeBSD for 2 weeks. 13.0 to 13-1-RELEASE now. I've been able to minimize random crashes from pretty often to once in a while, but for some reason no matter what I do my display will hang with a black screen and grey rectangles at least some of the time, forcing me to tap the power button to restart. My nvidia-driver-390 is pkg installed and properly set up in /usr/local/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d. Lately it's only when I log out of icewm or e16 and return to text console that I get this bug. 80-90% of the time I just return to text console fine, but a few times the display is messed up and I have to use the power button to restart. Nothing in /var/crash (though I didn't wait a long time if a core dump was being written before powering off) and no evidence in Xorg.0.log indicating X did not exit cleanly. Other than this: ->
[ 537.043] (EE) event4 - IntelliMouse: client bug: event processing lagging behind by 17ms, your system is too slow
[ 545.213] (EE) event4 - IntelliMouse: client bug: event processing lagging behind by 14ms, your system is too slow
.
Someone has posted that they used the same driver with a card almost as old as mine, and it works well. And most of the time it works well for me, so I'm not 100% sure it's just an issue with the 390 nvidia driver and it's compatibility with other parts of FreeBSD. I've tried different versions of the 340/390 driver, same thing happens. (just less frequently now in 13.1). Is this related at all to framebuffer on my video card (I have a GT 430) Or how xorg shuts down, and returns to text console? If so, or if not, what's the best way to troubleshoot this? (including changing BIOS settings). Thanks
