Yes, I dont have an xorg to conf - I was a bit unclear, I meant which
drivers should I instal from the xorg-drivers package as I dont
generally install all of them.
On my end this will result in the "modesetting" driver being used,
which is the suggested driver to use for intel and i believe amdgpu
systems. it provides full acceleration, and is under active
development upstream. it should also be part of the xorg-server pkg,
so you don't need to install any additional video drivers to use the
modesetting driver.
Thats actually relly helpdful, thanks! - I dont see a modesetting
driver in /usr/ports/x11-drivers though, Where did you get this driver
from ?
it's from the xorg-server port/pkg:
$ pkg list xorg-server|grep modes
/usr/local/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/modesetting_drv.so
/usr/local/man/man4/modesetting.4.gz
$
cheers,
