Solved Intel i3-2120 Integrated Graphics with drm-kmod is working only in software rendering mode (llvmpipe)?

This is my /etc/rc.conf :
Code: 
% cat /etc/rc.conf   
clear_tmp_enable="YES"
sendmail_enable="NONE"
hostname="abrhm.bsd.cpu"
keymap="us.kbd"
ifconfig_em0="DHCP"
moused_enable="YES"
ntpdate_enable="YES"
# Set dumpdev to "AUTO" to enable crash dumps, "NO" to disable
dumpdev="AUTO"
###############################################################
dbus_enable="YES"
#hald_enable="YES"
gdm_enable="YES"
gnome_enable="YES"
firewall_enable="YES"
firewall_quiet="YES"
firewall_type="workstation"
firewall_logdeny="YES"
firewall_myservices="80/tcp 443/tcp"

microcode_update_enable="YES"
 
Ok, so it is the old driver from base that is loaded. Try not enabling gdm nor gnome, login with the console and then kldstat -v | grep i915kms .
Do you have files in /etc/rc.conf.d/, or maybe there exist the following file /boot/loader.conf.local ? If so put here the content.

No i915kms module loaded when gdm & gnome disabled at /etc/rc.conf. This is a fresh install, there is no custom files except xorg horizontal & vertical freq for monitor (LG 22MK430H).
Code: 
 %cat /usr/local/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/monitor-freq.conf
Section "Monitor"
    Identifier   "Monitor0"
    HorizSync    30.0-85.0   # kHz
    VertRefresh  56.0-75.0   # Hz
EndSection
 
Ok so gnome or gdm somewhat try to loading i915kms, try setting in /etc/rc.conf
Code: 
kld_list="/boot/modules/i915kms.ko"

And in your home directory edit the following file: .xinitrc (you may need to mark it as executable, I am not sure if it is mandatory)
Code: 
#!/bin/sh
exec ck-launch-session dbus-launch --auto-syntax --exit-with-session gnome-session

Check before that you have consolkit with which ck-launch-session (if you don't have just remove it from the exec line)

Then reboot and login in the console.
Check that the correct i915kms.ko is loaded with kldstat -v | grep i915kms, and then run startx
If you get a gnome desktop with 3D acceleration, then you can try to re enable gdm and gnome and see if you still get 3D acceleration or not

I tried this. But, no display. The modules getting loaded are drm.ko and not drm2.ko. The line kld_list="/boot/modules/i915kms.ko" ends up loading drm.ko and no display.
As of now, Gnome works only in software rendering mode. I thought, since this is a decade old integrated graphics, this would be better supported.

Code: 
%  glxinfo |grep llvm
    Device: llvmpipe (LLVM 8.0, 256 bits) (0xffffffff)
OpenGL renderer string: llvmpipe (LLVM 8.0, 256 bits)
^ This is what is running. I hope to get 3D support working. I am confused what to do now?

I am ready to work to get things working. However, I have no clue on the driver modules and how they're loading. For this processor - i3-2120, which are the driver modules that are to be loaded? I am currently in Gnome session, and kldstat <snipped> says these modules are loaded:
Code: 
10    1 0xffffffff82b17000    7e070 i915kms.ko (/boot/kernel/i915kms.ko)
    Contains modules:
         Id Name
        520 vgapci/i915kms
        522 intel_gmbus/iicbus
        524 intel_iicbb/iicbb_nostop
        525 drmn/intel_sdvo_ddc_proxy
        523 drmn/intel_iicbb
        521 drmn/intel_gmbus
11    1 0xffffffff82b96000    44448 drm2.ko (/boot/kernel/drm2.ko)
    Contains modules:
         Id Name
        516 drmn/drm_iic_dp_aux
        517 drmn

It's pretty clear you are deliberately messing with us by dodging the drm-kmod question and substituting "3d acceleration in gnome with a legacy driver" instead. Don't do this. The legacy drivers will be removed in less than a year. It's a waste of everyone's time trying to get them to work.
 
Let's set some expectations:
Code:

I am using drm-kmod and you may be confusing with my early posts where I had used drm-legacy-kmod. I did not say about drm-legacy-kmod after that. check . Perhaps, I should update the question to remove mentioning legacy kmod to get some attention? (I'm editing the title)
 
shkhln said:
You realize the driver has a version string that it prints, do you?
Click to expand...

This is what I have in the system:
Code: 
% pkg info|grep drm
drm-fbsd12.0-kmod-4.16.g20200221 DRM modules for the linuxkpi-based KMS components
drm-kmod-g20190710             Metaport of DRM modules for the linuxkpi-based KMS components
drm_info-2.2.0_1               Small utility to dump info about DRM devices
libdrm-2.4.102,1               Userspace interface to kernel Direct Rendering Module services

sha256sums are the same as above.
it's not enabling 3D driver.

Right. That's what I'm talking about:

@shkhln : I'm not sure how to get the display working. The kernel driver is getting loaded, I undertands that. But, with the kld_list="/boot/modules/i915kms.ko" , X is not working.

I rebooted with kld_list="/boot/modules/i915kms.ko" and as expected, no display. I tried startx and the log is attached.
Should I trry with xf86-video-intel removed?

Code: 
[   171.145] (EE) open /dev/dri/card0: No such file or directory

means the kernel driver is not loaded or is improperly initialized. (Or doesn't see the hardware, although I don't think anything was deliberately disabled.)
 
Perhaps it needs a rebuild from source? It would be easier to switch to FreeBSD release, STABLE isn't really helping this situation.

I think you can carefully unpack release tarballs over your installation, but that's not really a foolproof or noob-friendly procedure.

Thank you for helping figuring out, what went wrong.
I will go for a re-install. Perhaps, will choose KDE next time. Gnome seems too much work.
Any DE recommendation by members are welcome.
