found how to do that, but since I have zfs on root with geli I'm better off just using the USB install image.


Just changed and booted again, tried the kldload and got a similar screen freezer.

I'll have to attach a screenshot again.


I should also mention this is a laptop with an ati card but it also has Intel integrated graphics (i7 processor).
Maybe this is what causes he issue?

startx also fails and auto loads radeonkms and i915kms.

I'll attach Xorg.log after reboot.


thanks

 Paraphrase the problem: Neither 8.x nor 10-R has a working Radeon driver fo r this hardware.
I use VESA driver on both FreeBSD releases. 8.x works fi ne, but 10-R has a blank screen.


Followed URL you provided below to  build X.Org X Server 1.12.4, but it does not work as expected.
Both defa ult driver and Radeon driver give a blank screen and it has no VESA driver  available.
Below is partial Xorg.0.log for trying to use VESA driver.X -v ersion output is also appended after that.

For building the new X Serv er, I followed instructions on the web page pointed by URL.
Have I missed  something changed recently?

Thanks for your feeedback.

When you used FreeBSD 8.x, do you re member if you used Radeon or VESA
driver? Because your integrated GPU is  fairly recent and it's surprising
if it was supported on FreeBSD 8.x.
 
On FreeBSD 10, I suggest you follow these instructions to use the new
 Radeon driver:
  https://wiki.freebsd.org/Graphics#Installing_KMS_Ports 

You'll end up with a newer X.Org server/drivers and libGL. They suppo rt
your card.

There's one caveat with this new driver: once an X ses sion is started,
you won't be able to use the console anymore. That means  that
VT-switching with Ctrl+Alt+Fx and exiting from X.Org will only give  you
a black screen. If this is unacceptable for you, keep using VESA.
 
Now, about your input devices problem: xorg-server is built with HAL by 
default. You have to enable hald (hald_enable="YES" in your
/etc/rc. conf) so that X.Org server can autodetect your input devices.
And you don 't need an xorg.conf file to configure them in this case.
