--- Comment #12 from Friedrich Volkmann <[email protected]> ---
When I bought a new mainboard with an onboard Intel graphics chip in (I
believe) early 2015, I found out that the kernel had a known issue (which I do
not remember in detail) that prevented xorg from working with the intel driver.
I have used the vesa driver instead without any visible problems (except that
mplayer reported my system as too slow). Today I upgraded to latest
FreeBSD-11.2 stable and gave the intel driver a try again. After starting X,
the system immediately rebooted. Then I tried the trick suggested by "sidetone"
in
https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/xorg-intel-hd-graphics-intel-driver-not-working.50605/
: I commented out "device i915drm" and "device drm" in the kernel config file.
Now I can successfully start X. But switching back to text mode is broken. When
I press Ctrl-Alt-F1 oder terminate X, the screen remains in graphics mode and
gets somewhat distorted. I can't get to see the console output any more.
