Since I'm using qemu,there are a lot of display devices available to try,but I don't know which one is good for FreeBSD.

I don't know which option is decent for my case. I would like to try with the cirrus display driver.

A https://www.freshports.org/x11-drivers/xf86-video-qxl/ driver exists. It didn't work on my qemu on Mac/ARM. Maybe it works for you. Ronald.
