Hello, I previously used Linux and switched to FreeBSD yesterday. I installed KDE Plasma, Intel display and graphics drivers and configured Xorg to stop the screen tearing but none really worked. Wayland is broken for me so it's not really an alternative.
I tried running Xorg -configure and...
I just installed FreeBSD 14.0-RELEASE i386 some days ago on a ThinkPad x201i with i3 (M 330) cpu [integrated graphics]. I did the following as Handbook suggested:

I have never used Xenocara, and haven't used OpenBSD.
What are benefits or comparisons for Xenocara over Xorg? I've heard about security benefits. What about ease of configuration for file or driver access? Also, are there desktop performance benefits? Or are there improvements in dependencies...
RedHat announced two days ago they are abandoning X.org starting 2025. This is a done deal, there are no ifs.
Not a single BSD distribution including FreeBSD, NetBSD or OpenBSD, not a single remaining UNIX including AIX and Solaris has released any statements in regard to that.
What are you...
Hello again, all. My desktop system is running 13-stable with a Radeon 570 card, and was working great.
Today, I updated ports, including mesa-dri.
Now, X starts and appears to work, but with a display so corrupted it is basically just colors and patterns. Like a modulus is way off. The mouse...
With my last pkg upgrade (via poudriere) x11-servers/xorg-server was updated to v21.1.9,1. After rebooting I cant start X anymore, all I see is a black unresponsive screen. I can go back to tty with ctrl+alt+bksp.

Hi, My laptop is an Optimus capable and there is no way to select Intel, NVIDIA, or Prime graphics from the BIOS. I am using Nvidia GTX 1660Ti Mobile and FreeBSD 13.2-RELEASE-p3 (64-bit) with X11.

Here's my Xorg.0.log http://ss.suragu.net/f/ymoi7/xorglog.txt and my the only...
