https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D258252 --- Comment #3 from Karel Gardas <karel.gardas@centrum.cz> --- Hi Niclas, of course I have tried. In fact it may not be obvious from my discovery ema= il, but I've tried: - load amd radeon drm kernel module (this disables console for some time) a= nd then start xserver -- works well - configure recommended /usr/local/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/driver-scfb.conf with recommended content and then xserver works well too. So what this issue is about is: - *if* handbook is ultimate user reference, then it's outdated since issue = of UEFI+AMD conflict is not mentioned there (on X11 related page(s)). - simple "pkg install xorg; startx" is not working by default on UEFI+AMD. = You need to do quite some googling around, avoid misleading handbook info and f= ind out the right information how and what to do. Fortunately when https://github.com/freebsd/drm-kmod/issues/60 fix propagat= es to release, it will solve the issue. I've not had a chance to test it yet though. Thanks! --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
