See Intel_GPU <https://wiki.freebsd.org/Intel_GPU>; for more details." at https://wiki.freebsd.org/Xorg I assume It worked out of the box just b installing Xorg... Intel_GPU <https://wiki.freebsd.org/Intel_GPU>; page however pointed me to the right direction, which is: WITH_NEW_XORG=true and WITH_KMS=true to /etc/make.conf. and then rebuild (portmaster -f for example) and it now starts. I still have some problems though... I can't switch to console with CRTL+ALT+F1...2..3... etc I get a very weired screen, like my kde all nuts... the good thing is I can at least switch back to kde. I also noted that at shutdown/reboot I get a black screen .... nothing shows on screen, I just have to wait for it to turn off... I get the feeling that this is somehow related! Please note that I'm using a Acer S3 Ultrabook with a integrated Intel card... AMD info is here: https://wiki.freebsd.org/AMD_GPU
