Wrong resolution at first login

Hi, i have an issue with KDE 4.14 and its resolution: when i login into my FreeBSD 11 box for the first time in the current session, i have to press CTRL+ALT+F1 and re-login through tty for getting KDE working at the maximum resolution. KDM is disabled.
My desktop computer is an old Dell Optiplex 360 and here are some useful info:

I have configured Xorg manually and installed KDE with doas pkg install x11/kde4
 
Hi.

I had issues in the past with vesa driver. Every time I changed from graphical to text tty, no more video. I had to blindly login and reboot. Until I found the (almost) right driver for me, directly from upstream since the ports were a little delayed... those were painful weeks.

I ask myself if you would have a better/proper driver to use. Try these and post the results:

pciconf -lv | grep -A4 vga
 
Here is the output you've asked for
Code: 
$ pciconf -lv | grep -A4 vga
vgapci0@pci0:0:2:0:     class=0x030000 card=0x02941028 chip=0x29c28086 rev=0x0a hdr=0x00
    vendor     = 'Intel Corporation'
    device     = '82G33/G31 Express Integrated Graphics Controller'
    class      = display
    subclass   = VGA
vgapci1@pci0:0:2:1:     class=0x038000 card=0x02941028 chip=0x29c38086 rev=0x0a hdr=0x00
    vendor     = 'Intel Corporation'
    device     = '82G33/G31 Express Integrated Graphics Controller'
    class      = display
hdac0@pci0:0:27:0:      class=0x040300 card=0x02941028 chip=0x27d88086 rev=0x01 hdr=0x00

I have noticed that the issue i've exposed previously doesn't always happen. I couldn't track down a possible cause of this strange behaviour. Before switching to vesa driver i've tried the intel one, but i have not been able to get Xorg working with it.
 
:confused: I'm not sure if this device should be supported or not. intel(4) lists chipset G33 as supported hardware, but it seems that yours is G31 (?)
I read something/somewhere about scfb driver x11-drivers/xf86-video-scfb (UEFI related), did you tried? Well, I have no ideia if it should help and I will not waste your time telling you "try this, try that" .
