There are a lot of threads on this subject. It's a thorny problem that often comes up after upgrades from a minor version that has not reached EOL yet. bapt@ has posted a solution to freebsd-ports:
Multimedia:
I installed this one as soon as I upgraded to 14.1-RELEASE instead of drm-515-kmod. It worked on intel HD630.
kldunload). After what, you try the suited kmod with kldload. And, if things are ok, try to start Xorg.
mkdir -p '/usr/local/etc/pkg/repos' && ee '/usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/FreeBSD-kmods-latest.conf'FreeBSD-kmods-latest: {
url: "pkg+https://pkg.freebsd.org/${ABI}/kmods_latest_${VERSION_MINOR}",
enabled: yes,
priority: 1,

signature_type: "FINGERPRINTS",

} drm-515-kmod, installed drm-61-kmod from FreeBSD-kmods-latest, rebooted, and it works fine right now!A more robust conf file content is:
FreeBSD-kmods {
url: pkg+https://pkg.freebsd.org/${ABI}/kmods_latest_${VERSION_MINOR}
signature_type: "fingerprints"
fingerprints: "/usr/share/keys/pkg"
mirror_type: "srv"
enabled: yes
}FreeBSD-kmods {
url: pkg+https://pkg.freebsd.org/${ABI}/kmods_latest_${VERSION_MINOR},
signature_type: "fingerprints",
fingerprints: "/usr/share/keys/pkg",
mirror_type: "srv",
enabled: yes,
priority: 1,
}Nice find!
FreeBSD-kmods-latest: {
url: "pkg+https://pkg.freebsd.org/${ABI}/kmods_latest_${VERSION_MINOR}",
enabled: yes,
priority: 1,
mirror_type: "SRV",
signature_type: "FINGERPRINTS",
fingerprints: "/usr/share/keys/pkg"
}Interesting. All the examples I've seen, including on the man page, have commas at the line endings.
Incorporated the above line in my existing file for 'latest' repository and commented the old one. There are only four packages are to be upgraded . So it is implied that every time when I have to do package update then first I have to update with original latest line then with above url.
Create another .conf file in/usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/ instead of modifiying an existing one. It works perfectly, and uses kmods_latest_${VERSION_MINOR} only for the kmod modules that are present in this repos (if I well understood).
Well, the thing works without defining priority.
I'm not sure what the behavior is for multiple repos with the same priority. I've always just bumped up the priority for the repos I want to go first. One thing to keep in mind is the higher priority repos don't have to have every package in them. The lower priority repos will be checked for packages that don't exist in the higher priority repos. It's a simple and elegant inheritance implementation.
Your GeForce GT 1030 is supported by FreeBSD Display Driver – x64 550.127.05 | FreeBSD x64 , so I suggest you try installing the proprietary x11/nvidia-driver by means of
pkg install nvidia-driver; follow Chapter 5. The X Window System using nvidia-modeset in /etc/rc.conf and nvidia in a Section "Device" in an appropriate Xorg .conf file.If the GT1030 is the only GPU you have in the computer and you're using xorg (not Wayland), consider switching to configuration without nvidia-drm-[510|515|61]-kmod. It should be more stable in KBI, as it does not require LinuxKPI.
Thanks!! I added the x11-driver (xf86-video-nv) then carried out the kld_list syntax in rc.conf and entered the nvidia-driver.conf file /usr/local/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d and through the graphics port installed drm-515-kmod. All is back to working.
