Dell Latitude E6520 Xorg Problems
Is anyone out there running FreeBSD on a Dell Latitude E6520? I am struggling to Xorg to start, doing the Xorg -configure I get number of created screens does not match number of detected devices I have tried with an external monitor attached and laptop closed, with external monitor attached and laptop open, and with no external monitor. All same results, I did remember to disable the Optimus feature in the bios, even tried enabling it, no change. -- Thanks, Dean E.

Does it work with the lid open and no additional monitor attached? On Thu, Jul 18, 2013 at 1:43 AM, dweimer dwei...@dweimer.net wrote: Is anyone out there running FreeBSD on a Dell Latitude E6520?

Nope, but perhaps I found some information, that has me in going in the right direction, this has an integrated intel video card with the core i7, in process of rebuilding world and kernel with Kim's and xorg_new set in make.conf.

Re: Dell Latitude E6520 Xorg Problems
I have only gone as far as scanning wifi and it did find all the ssids I expected. System is now recompiling the xorg ports with new kernel and world in place.

Re: Dell Latitude E6520 Xorg Problems
Success X is running after some more playing to verify what works and doesn't I will post back with full config, FYI I did have to re-enable Optimus after rebuilding with KMS.

So far I still haven't been able to get the external monitor working, I
have rebuilt the system using options KMS and NEW_XORG, in the
make.conf, here is the full make.conf file.
