I have exactly this problem with a Fujitsu Lifebook E743 running FreeBSD 11.0-CURRENT r263980, new VT with KMS and xorg-7.7 built from ports head branch r350058 via poudriere. However, the suggested work around does not work as CTRL+ALT+F1 does not register and switch out to a VT. Can any FreeBSD xorg gurus please chime in to help me debug and hopefully fix this really annoying problem? Cheers, Lawrence
