 it would also help to be explicit about the firmware-version.
I would suggest to base tests on - 1.20210303. - , as it should then be the
latest in the next build , IIRC.

Yes, frame buffer supports up to 1920 x 1080( so no 4k for now 
 because of missing vc4 graphics accelerator driver),
I didn`t recall problems with any window server in  X , so should work out of the box.
in short: no acceleration means nou seful  adjustment-options with tools because the resolution 
is scanned at boot-time by fb-driver. So: it HAS TO work out of the box.

Since you’re the 2nd person who reports this, seems to be a known (new) bug now , 
belongs to u-boot(&perhaps firmware) :
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=253981#c29
If the attachment in comment 29 doesn’t help:
it`s a firmware problem(provided there were no major related changes in src).
So we have to know the exact release &fw- version to fix this.
