--- Comment #2 from Jan Beich <jbeich@FreeBSD.org> ---
Also, try upgrading to -CURRENT because drm-fbsd11.2-kmod and drm-fbsd12.0-=
kmod
are unlikely to be fixed unless you provide a patch.

According to the manpage SNA stands for Sandybridge's New Acceleration. GM45
(Gen4) predates Sandybridge (Gen6). Upstream has a lot of code to support g=
en4
and gen >=3D 045 in particular. However, bug 214593 disabled SNA by default=
 due
to crashes on pre-Sandybridge. If drm-kmod made SNA work but has graphical
glitches then it's an improvement. This is why trying newer DRM drivers
(i915kms, radeonkms, etc) even on old handware is important.
