Hi Thomas,
after discussion with Niclas and I explained him that 12=2E1-RELEASE works=
 but 12-STABLE not, he mentioned to build and install "drm-fbsd12=2E0-kmod"=
 from ports, but also "gpu-firmware-kmod" from ports (instead of prebuild p=
kg), what fixed the issue in my case=2E Now startx and i3 works fine=2E
Here how I installed the two ports; https://github=2Ecom/NilsJohannsen/BSD=
-Journal/blob/master/desktop/drm/install-drm-intel=2Esh
Here my hardware probe: https://bsd-hardware=2Einfo/index=2Ephp?probe=3D2e=
8c0ef401
Regards, Nils

I don't think this is the root cause=2E I am seeing the exact same issue
after upgrading a Sandy Bridge machine with on-chip-GPU to a recent
-STABLE=2E Worked perfectly fine before with the abandonware-i915kms in
base as well as with drm-legacy-kmod=2E Now both are showing a mere
black screen, just like Nils reported=2E Maybe the recent MFCs of
linuxkpi stuff broke something=2E I'll build some kernels and modules
and see if I find the issue=2E Meanwhile, if it's been discovered (and
fixed) already, let me know=2E
