Other External monitor

Do you have some use case? With UEFI console, it is possible, but you need a custom kernel with some special modification (no details at the moment, just a memory of doing this with help from somebody). Also, with non-zero probability of misunderstanding the question, could you provide some more details?

Hi!
ThinkPad x220t + NEC 1990FX.
FreeBSD 15.0-RELEASE:

I assume the monitor doesn't have hardware rotating, right?

You could try vt: implement rotation for framebuffer consoles patch
Summary

tunable "kern.vt.rotate" controls behaviour:
1 - if witdh < height (Portrait mode display): rotate 270 degrees
90 - rotate 90 degrees
180 - rotate 180 degrees
270 - rotate 270 degrees
all other values or undefined - no rotation
Perhaps ask on freebsd-current@ mailing list patch to be committed in the source code, after testing.
 
Do you like to keep image on internal display as is? I am afraid it is not possible - both internal and external displays show the same image until X or something similar is in use, so if you try T-Daemon's patch, either internal or external display shows image with proper orientation/rotation, but not both. Additionally, to change the selection of display orientation, you need to edit /boot/loader.conf where the tunable as mentioned resides, and... reboot.
