We do need to improve the documentation and instructions. What does 'kldstat -v' say? The kernel modules from ports are installed to /boot/modules and it is common that the old version that comes with the kernel in /boot/kernel is loaded instead. There are several ways to make sure that the correct modules are loaded. I put this in my /boot/loader.conf: module_path="/boot/modules;/boot/dtb;/boot/overlays" This will make sure that modules are loaded from /boot/modules first, and then /boot/kernel if they are not found in the first locations. To load modules automatically, put in /etc/rc.conf kld_list="/boot/modules/drm.ko /boot/modules/i915kms.ko" or simply kld_list="i915kms" if you specified module_path. > > My system is an Intel NUC with this hardware configuration: > > CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-5557U CPU @ 3.10GHz (3092.91-MHz K8-class CPU) > Origin="GenuineIntel" Id=0x306d4 Family=0x6 Model=0x3d Stepping=4 > Features=0xbfebfbff<FPU,VME,DE,PSE,TSC,MSR,PAE,MCE,CX8,APIC,SEP,MTRR,PGE,MCA,CMOV,PAT,PSE36,CLFLUSH,DTS,ACPI,MMX,FXSR,SSE,SSE2,SS,HTT,TM,PBE> > Features2=0x7ffafbbf<SSE3,PCLMULQDQ,DTES64,MON,DS_CPL,VMX,EST,TM2,SSSE3,SDBG,FMA,CX16,xTPR,PDCM,PCID,SSE4.1,SSE4.2,x2APIC,MOVBE,POPCNT,TSCDLT,AESNI,XSAVE,OSXSAVE,AVX,F16C,RDRAND> > AMD Features=0x2c000800<SYSCALL,Page1GB,RDTSCP,LM> > AMD Features2=0x121<LAHF,ABM,Prefetch> > Structured Extended Features=0x21c27ab<FSGSBASE,TSCADJ,BMI1,AVX2,SMEP,BMI2,ERMS,INVPCID,NFPUSG,RDSEED,ADX,SMAP,PROCTRACE> > XSAVE Features=0x1<XSAVEOPT> > VT-x: (disabled in BIOS) PAT,HLT,MTF,PAUSE,EPT,UG,VPID > TSC: P-state invariant, performance statistics > real memory = 17179869184 (16384 MB) > avail memory = 16482922496 (15719 MB) > > > Here's what I get in the Xorg.0.log file when I run startx: > > [ 49.100] (EE) No devices detected. > [ 49.101] (EE) > Fatal server error: > [ 49.101] (EE) no screens found(EE) > [ 49.101] (EE) > Please consult the The X.Org Foundation support > at http://wiki.x.org > for help. > [ 49.101] (EE) Please also check the log file at "/var/log/Xorg.0.log" for additional information. > [ 49.101] (EE) > [ 49.101] (EE) Server terminated with error (1).
