Graphics support in FreeBSD has reached a milestone with the drm-kmod port now including the Linux 6.12 (LTS) graphics driver. This version of the port works with FreeBSD 15.1 onwards.
The update marks an important upgrade in graphics in both functionality and security because it means that new versions of FreeBSD now benefit from sharing drivers with a newer LTS (Long Term Support) version of Linux. 6.12 is also the newest available version that is targeted for SLTS (super long term support) to 2036 via the CIP program.
The work, part of the FreeBSD Foundation’s Laptop Support and Usability Project, delivers better compatibility with modern AMD Radeon and Intel graphics hardware, better graphics stability and enhanced Wayland compatibility.
