https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D261440 --- Comment #8 from Stefan B. <sblachmann@gmail.com> --- (In reply to Graham Perrin from comment #7) Some FreeBSD dev decided to make some changes which render the Freedesktop drivers dysfunctional. Then there was pressure from nv users to incorporate a patch that at least restored the functionality of the nv driver. Patches supplied to restore functionality of the Matrox driver were ignored. The FreeBSD dev said that Matrox is obsolete crap not worth supporting. After being taught that Matrox is _the_ server graphics chip, second follow= ing the AST (aspeed) chip, and wide expression of bewilderment that the FreeBSD (supposedly targeted at servers) devs don't know this, they hurried to rest= ore the functionality of both these drivers, too. But only one and a half year after disabling these drivers... And then the FreeBSD dev apparently announced to abandon X Window support in favor of Wayland. This was one of the last straws that made me retire FreeBSD. Anyway, back to the topic: I was referring to the Freedesktop graphics drivers, which flawlessly suppo= rt suspend/resume. But only when using the SC console. With vt newcons, resuming fails. The graphics cards drivers affected are all of xf86-video-* except the KMS-supporting -ati/amdgpu/intel. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
