I was assuming > that udev vs. devd was the issue, as that is the only option (other than > wrapper). Is installing modesetting controlled by something else? The modesetting driver should be built and installed in all cases, on all versions of FreeBSD. devd is still the default on FreeBSD 11, but udev is the default on 12 and later. If you still have the package (the actual .txz file) it might be intereseting to see if modesetting_drv.so is in the file. I find it strange that it hasn't been installed by default. There have been no reports from the pkg build cluster about the xorg packages either.
