Hello, I am a newbie with FreeBSD, I am having problems with the resolution.

This is my /etc/X11/xorg.conf:
Code: 
Section "ServerLayout"
        Identifier     "X.org Configured"
        Screen      0  "Screen0" 0 0
        InputDevice    "Mouse0" "CorePointer"
        InputDevice    "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"
EndSection

Section "Files"

Re: X resolution poblem

It appears you installed the NVidia driver but forgot to actually configure it in xorg.conf:
Code: 
Driver      "vesa"
This should be nvidia if you want to use x11/nvidia-driver.

I already installed the Nvida driver, is there another option?

thanks
 
Re: X resolution poblem

Yes, you installed it but you did not enable it in xorg.conf. The configuration is still set to use the vesa driver, not the nvidia driver.

There is a problem, my video card is not Nvida, it is intel.

Then why did you install x11/nvidia-driver?

Please post the output of pciconf -lv | grep -B3 VGA.

Output:
Code: 
    vendor     = 'Intel Corporation'
    device     = 'Haswell-ULT Integrated Graphics Controller'
    class      = display
    subclass   = VGA

Thanks
 
Re: X resolution poblem

Even with KMS, only vesa can be used on Haswell at present. Don't know what the status is on Haswell video support, but I hope it's sooner rather than later.
 
Re: X resolution poblem

Ok, KMS done, and using
Code: 
Driver "intel"
in /etc/X11/xorg.conf results in an error. The log is uploaded

@wblock@, there is no solution for my case?

Thanks.

Re: X resolution poblem

Most of the Haswell processors use a new form of Intel graphics that is not supported on FreeBSD yet. Radeon cards can be added to desktops, or Nvidia if you're into that. There are rumors about Optimus support for notebooks, but nothing definite yet. So vesa is all there is for Haswell notebooks right now.
 
Re: X resolution poblem

So I must to switch to another system that support completely my Haswell processor (I really liked FreeBSD)? I want a good experience with my system.

Thanks for all support, yours helped me lot.
