Multiple problems on PC-BSD 10.1.1 using an Acer E5-511 laptop with an Intel N3530 SoC. Previous discussion on PC-BSD forums.
1. I have "Intel HD Graphics" on-chip video. VESA works. When testing another driver through the Xorg configuration wizard, neither of the intel or the intel-3d drivers work.
This appears to be a xorg.conf file created by the Xorg configuration wizard:

A post from 2011 says that "X-window can't get 1366x768 resolution with Intel HD Graphics of i3." I believe that might be my screen resolution. Is this still a problem with Xorg?
2. I do not have an xorg.conf file.
The pastebin linked above shows one screen, one monitor, and one device for each driver intel, fbdev, and vesa.
dbus and hald are enabled on boot.
According to someone on the gentoo forums, "X -configure does not work with KMS." This might explain the immediate cause but not the entire cause. According to the Intel GPU page, KMS is a modesetting method used by newer Intel drivers.
3. The Xorg configuration wizard does not list any monitor or video card. These fields are greyed out.
4. The Intel GPU page suggests turning on hw.dri.debug. I do not have hw.dri.* in
I have the dri package installed. The i915kms, drm, and drm2 kernel modules are loaded.
5. The framebuffer module fails with the error:
-----
Settings:
malfunctioning xorg.conf (repeated from above).
It may be notable that nothing about the monitor is detected.
The Intel driver is supposed to support HD Graphics:
What other utilities are available to diagnose this issue?
Is there any way to tell what the intel driver is trying to do and why it is not working?

Is there any way to tell what the intel driver is trying to do and why it is not working?
