I ran into the same issue today, installed blender from a package
Code:
root@kg-core2# pkg info blender*
blender-2.80_3
this on
Code:
root@kg-core2# uname -a
FreeBSD kg-core2.kg4.no 11.3-RELEASE-p3 FreeBSD 11.3-RELEASE-p3 #0: Mon Aug 19 21:08:43 UTC 2019     root@amd64-builder.daemonology.net:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC  amd64
In my case, the interface was totally garbled, couldn't do anything other than close the program. When started from the command line, I got this
Code:
tingo@kg-core2$ blender -E help

Blender Engine Listing:
    BLENDER_EEVEE
    BLENDER_WORKBENCH
    CYCLES
(I used '-E help' here just to shorten the output). Anyway, my workaround (found with a bit of searching)
Code:
tingo@kg-core2$ LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE=1 blender
this will disable any acceleration, but then blender interface is usable. :-/
 
FWIW, blender now works "normally" on my machine.
Code:
root@kg-core2# pkg info blender*
blender-2.82_1
root@kg-core2# freebsd-version -ku
11.3-RELEASE-p7
11.3-RELEASE-p7
