https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D241101 Niclas Zeising <zeising@FreeBSD.org> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Assignee|ports-bugs@FreeBSD.org |x11@FreeBSD.org CC| |zeising@FreeBSD.org --- Comment #7 from Niclas Zeising <zeising@FreeBSD.org> --- Hi! The issue is that packages for FreeBSD are built on the lowest common suppo= rted version. This means that packages for FreeBSD 12 (both 12.0 and 12.1, as w= ell as 12-STABLE) are built on FreeBSD 12.0. There has been a change somewhere in the time between 12.0 and 12.1 that ma= kes certain kernel modules, i915kms.ko is one of them (both drm-fbsd12.0-kmod a= nd drm-legacy-kmod) fail when loaded on a FreeBSD 12.1 kernel. The best work around for this is to simply build the kernel module from por= ts on FreeBSD 12.1. This is safe to do even on systems that otherwise use bin= ary packages. This is a known issue, with no really good solution currently. It has been discussed within the graphics team quite a lot, however, I was unaware that this PR existed. https://github.com/FreeBSDDesktop/kms-drm/issues/183 is the issue we have o= pen on github.
