I've just installed FreeBSD 13.3 on a new PC and I'm connecting it via DisplayPort to a widescreen monitor. I follwed the instructions to install X11 and KDE. KDE is indeed running. However, there is only a single resolution and everything appears very big.
My motherboard supports up to 8K...
Greetings everyone!
Hi I installed FreeBSD as an guest on Hyper-V. I am a total newbie to unix like operating systems and I need some help to set the console resolution to 1920x1080, which currently looks like this *attached screenshot*.
Currently doesn't have any graphic server like...
Hi all,
I've just installed FreeBSD (+ X Window System & GNOME) on a HP Prodesk 400 G1. It's an old minipc connected to an external monitor (with 1920x1080 resolution) via a VGA-HDMI converter. The converter works only in one direction, from the pc to the monitor, so the X Server cannot read...
Hi,
I have a display that works fine on Ubuntu, but on FreeBSD I can't get higher resolution, did I miss some thing?
I got X-Windows by following command
pkg install xorg
pkg install drm-kmod
pkg install xf86-video-intel
on FreeBSD 3121 13.1-RELEASE FreeBSD 13.1-RELEASE...
hi,

Mostly ok (mate + slim) a part of resolution stuck to 1028x768 (how to increase? here it need a virtue-gpu driver) and a fundamental problem with mouse in GUI (stuck) solved putting...
Hi Friends!
I have a small laptop ASUS EeePC 1215, with AMD Radeon 6310 video card.
So I have i386 system installed with vt console enabled:
/boot/loader.conf
kern.vty=vt
radeonkms_load="YES"

It has a native internal LVDS resolution: 1024x600, but I need use it...
Hi,
I cannot change resolution.
I tried via xrandr, arandr and KDE5 settings but it simply doesn't work. I'm using FreeBSD on my virtual machine. I use Virtualbox and I think that this may be a problem.
When I try to change resolution it gives: "Failed to get size of gamma for output default". I...
Hello everyone
I’m running freebsd 12. By default only the console starts. If I do startx the gnome desktop does start. Note I do not use gdm because I do not always want windows to start.
The main problem at the moment is that the screen resolution in gnome is not what I want. It is too...
I have a FreeBSD 12 instance running in VirtualBox. My goal is to take advantage of the larger screen my host computer provides.
I've created several files:
$HOME/.xinitrc
$HOME/.xsession
$HOME/.xprofile
.xinitrc uses xrandr to set my resolution to 1680x1050.
.xsession sources .xinitrc
And...
Ok, so i've been using FreeBSD for a while with my NVidia GTX 1060 6GB and had no problems. However I have recently bought a new AMD Radeon RX 590 8GB and reinstalled FreeBSD. It's a fresh install with a desktop environment (GNOME) and everything works except the resolution. Through all my...
Hi,
I'm new to FreeBSD and just performed my first install. I'm following the handbook and am now at chapter "5.4. Xorg Configuration". I've already successfully installed x11/xorg. I'm trying this as the root user, but get the same results as a regular user (who is in the wheel group).
I've...
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...
The laptop is ThinkPad X250 (Broadwell GPU) and the LCD resolution is 1366x768. I have set booting from UEFI only and disabled CSM. The whole disk is encrypted by GELI except /boot/.
On 10.2-STABLE, the LCD resolution can be recognized rightly without any configure in /boot/loader.conf. The...
Hello folks,
I'm running a FreeBSD 10.2 guest in VMware and so far everything works great. The thing I am missing is that X changes the resolution when resizing the VMware window. From my Linux guests (I am switching to FreeBSD just now) I am used that changing the size of the VMware window...
