I had the X-server running on FreeBSD 10.1 (with a RaspberryPI Model B) too, but with an older (1/2 year) ports tree.

Why don't you compile it on the > Raspberry? It just takes some time. Compiling on the Raspberry is very slow. Is there any reason not to use the packages built on the Wandboard, running the exact same FreeBSD version? Later I had built and installed x11-drivers/xf86-video-scfb on the RaspberryPI, but there is no difference, the colors remain strange. > > Can anybody give me a hint what is wrong? > > Try a very basic window manager. I use blackbox without any problems. Xfce4 is running on the Wandboard very well. If I have access to the Wandboard from a windows7 host with Xming server, all is ok. On the RaspberryPI I use x11-wm/fluxbox. It works, but in xterm or urxvt windows, the output of ls -G shows the wrong colors. (The twm windows have the wrong colors, too.) I was not able to compile x11-wm/blackbox. See https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=200124 -- Ulriich > Erich
