https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D210542 Bug ID: 210542 Summary: x11/xorg: Better documentation regarding 3D acceleration Product: Ports & Packages Version: Latest Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Only Me Priority: --- Component: Individual Port(s) Assignee: x11@FreeBSD.org Reporter: yonas@fizk.net Assignee: x11@FreeBSD.org Flags: maintainer-feedback?(x11@FreeBSD.org) There are two issues: 1. It's not very obvious that users need to add themselves to the "video" g= roup for 3D acceleration to work. 2. The documentation states that users can add themselves to either the "vi= deo" or "wheel" group. In my case, I was already part of the wheel group, and I needed to specifically add myself to the video group to enable 3D accelerat= ion (i915 on FreeBSD-11 CURRENT). If it's not a bug that users need to specifically be part of the video grou= p, then I think we need to enable 3D acceleration for anyone in the wheel grou= p as well. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
