https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D283123 --- Comment #20 from Michael <mw@weis.xyz> --- I thought to summaries what I would have done if I had fully understood the bullet point under open issues from the 14.2. errata (https://www.freebsd.org/releases/14.2R/errata/) i.e.: - drm-kmod packages compiled on FreeBSD 14.1 result in the text console bei= ng inoperative when the kernel module is loaded. Recompiling the package from = the ports tree will restore the lost functionality. This issue will also resolve itself after the FreeBSD 14.1 EoL, when packages for 14-STABLE will start b= eing built on FreeBSD 14.2-RELEASE. pre-upgrade steps for people using binary packages like me: 1) if you are using /etc/rc.conf to load i915km - comment it out i.e.: #kld_list=3D"i915kms ..." upgrade as per the 14.2. release instructions: https://www.freebsd.org/releases/14.2R/installation/#upgrade-binary post-upgrade tasks: 1) Make sure you have the 14.2 source code and the latest ports code downlo= aded (required to recompile drm-kmod). P.S. If you already have files in this folders and are not sure you have the right version, I would just delete th= em all. cmd for source code: git clone --depth=3D1 --branch releng/14.2 https://git.FreeBSD.org/src.git /usr/src cmd for ports code: git clone --depth 1 https://git.FreeBSD.org/ports.git /usr/ports 2) Un-installed drm-kmod package and all dependencies: cmd: pkg delete drm-kmod cmd: pkg autoremove 3) Compile drm-kmod: cmd: cd /usr/ports/graphics/drm-kmod cmd: make install clean 4) Test if the new version is working=20 cmd: kldload i915kms 5) if all is working, un-comment line in /etc/rc.conf again i.e. kld_list=3D"i915kms ..."=20 6) Reboot your system Alternatively you can just wait until eol of 14.1. which will be end of Mar= ch 2025 approx. as mentioned in the errata above. Hope this helpful. P.S. If I missed anything please feel free to correct me. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
