Fatal server error. Cannot run in framebuffer mode. Please specifyx busIDs. for all framebuffer devices.

How about this. ?
 
Standard error message if it cannot find a proper driver or you have more than one graphics card and it cannot figure out which one you want to use.

Chapter 5. The X Window System

This chapter describes how to install and configure Xorg on FreeBSD, which provides the open source X Window System used to provide a graphical environment

thanks. i got it.
i have changed the contents of rc.conf file with nano in etc folder.
Not as described in the x video installation example like : kld_list="i915kms"...
But in that style it works.
adding the line : sysrc kld_list+=i915kms
All clear.

Don't put this command in rc.conf. You're meant to execute it on the command line. It will then add kld_list="i915kms" to rc.conf.

Did you install graphics/drm-kmod using packages? If yes, the module probably failed to load (is it loaded? Check kldstat). Packages are still being built for 14.0 and this particular kernel module might fail to load on 14.1.
 
hello,
i have installed the package. kldstat . i cannot see that a package drm-kmod is loaded.
Should i install Version 14.0 FreeBSD ???
 
I guess those concerns about i915drm paths were resolved in FreeBSD >=13
The i915drm module was removed from base so only one possible path now.

A misunderstanding.

You have FreeBSD 14.1-RELEASE releng/14.1-n267679-10e31f0946d8 GENERIC amd64.

Please consider these two commands:
  1. pkg install -y --quiet graphics/gpu-firmware-kmod
  2. cd /usr/ports/graphics/drm-61-kmod/ && make install clean
1724696428797.pngThe second command (the example in FreshPorts):
  • will build packages for, and install, only what's required in this situation
  • will work only if you have up-to-date local copies of the ports and src trees at /usr/ports and /usr/src respectively.

I have not had a kernel panic, although it could be and you never know .., although in other installations when I wanted to install only drm-kmod I installed it together with drm-515-kmod, both together ...
 
i did pkg install drm-kmod and it pulled all the things i needed. I tried to separate firmware just for Kaby Lake but once i did drm-kmod it still pulled for all gpu firmwares (130 plus ).
added in rc.conf --> kld_list="i915kms" - dbus_enable="YES" - reboot and all good.( later one maybe not needed dont know, but if i dont have dbus_enabled - cant run Qtile )
Dont have dual gpu laptop so did not needed to specify bus id etc and i dont edited any xorg conf files
running FreeBSD 14.1-Release and Qtile.

hi, just installing xorg from ports collection.
Downloading hundreds of packages.......
it takes some hours.....
now running more than 10 hours
ok, running a night session. doesn't matter how long.
let the computer running. don't know what is doing compiled there. updating ports collection.
Takes too long for xorg installation from ports.
I do new install FreeBsd 14.1 together with ports.
Then installing xorg with pkg as before.
Following installation of the driver drm-kmod from ports.

?
