Manu actually just updated this port on Sep 5th which has some useful fixes in it. > Or, am I really in trouble and Comet Lake I simply not supported at all? > The symptoms make me suspicious that the device is simply not recognized. > > Running current from 9/3 snapshot and latest ports all installed from > packages. is this from using the "drm-devel" or "drm-current" kmod? as mentioned above i'd give the "drm-devel" driver a spin and if still having issues post the dmesg loglines containing "drm". hope this helps, -pete -- Pete Wright pete@nomadlogic.org @nomadlogicLAhelp
