    Xorg and KDE does not work on FreeBSD 13, but GhostBSD works. So, what are the relevant config files?

    I'm trying to get KDE up and running on FreeBSD 13 on a laptop PC. I could not even configure Xorg to run and it seems like the hardware cannot be recognized. So, I downloaded GhostBSD (both the default MATE and Xfce versions) and it works out of the box. I am now trying to figure out what...

    vesa driver and dual monitor configuration

    Hello, I wonder if it's possible to have a dual monitor configuration using the vesa driver? I used to work with two monitors, but after an upgrade from 12.2 to 13.0, 'radeonkms' stopped working. Gnome Settings shows just one monitor, if I turn on the second monitor, it duplicates the first one.

    Does FreeBSD support DRI PRIME or similar switchable graphics yet?

    I understand this question has been asked before on the forums over the years but I would like to request an update for 2021, and given 13.0-RELEASE is right around the corner, perhaps some things have been added that I am not yet aware of. I'm running a ThinkPad T400 with an Intel Mobile 4...

    Xorg on FreeBSD 13.0 BETA2

    It feels it is kind of off topic, but did anyone tried the 13.0 BETA2 version? Did anyone had an issue with Xorg, eg lets say completely freeze the system and need to poweroff the computer from its power button? I read that there were some changes in the drivers section and the way they...
