    Upgrade from 14.1 to 14.2 Video configuration did't work

    I was running 14.1 on Lenovo T480s without any issues, decided to upgrade to 14.2 and the video driver didn't work. At the end of the day, I decided to reinstall FreeBSD 14.2 from USB and loading the video driver from the pkg. I reused the driver for UHD Graphics 620 (drm-510) on 14.2 from 14.1.
