Progress of Intel GEM/KMS/DRI laptop video driver?
I have read about a patch for Intel video that might make it into Release 9.0, is there any way to know if it is in 9.0-current? I installed the 9 beta 2 snapshot, but I don't think the video support was there. (Next time I will check the compatibility list!) The patch is for Intel laptop video support, and is mentioned here: http://freebsdfoundation.blogspot.com/2011/02/freebsd-foundation-announces-new.html The FreeBSD Foundation is pleased to announce that Konstantin Belousov has been awarded a grant to implement support of GEM, KMS, and DRI for Intel Drivers. This project is being co-sponsored by iXsystems. The project is to implement GEM, port KMS, and write new DRI drivers for Intel Graphics, including the latest Sandy Bridge generation of integrated graphic units. The work should allow the latest Intel open-source driver to run on FreeBSD, expanding the range of hardware where FreeBSD is suitable for the desktop. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

xvidtune and nouveau video driver
Ever since Debian went to the nouveau video driver for Nvidia, I have not been able to adjust my horizontal screen position with xvidtune. The application runs, but when I try to reset the HSyncStart value I get an error dialog box that says, Sorry: You have requested a mode-line that is not possible, or not supported by your hardware configuration. This didn't happen with the old nv driver.

Reinstalling Video Driver in 8.0-RELEASE....
I have successfully upgraded 7.1-RELEASE TO 8.0-RELEASE and have successfully installed XFCE and Opera etc on VirtualBox 3.0.x... The issue is that at time of FreeBSD installation, I forgot to set my (Virtualbox) video card with 3D acceleration and with a good amount of memory. I have re-adjusted the Virtualbox settings with 3D acceleration and 64MB of memory. XFCE is currently running at 800x600 resolution, but does not give me an option for any larger resolution. How do I go about reconfiguring my video card in FreeBSD 8.0, so I can run XFCE at 1280x720? Thanks for coming out!

If VirtualBox doesn't pass the real monitor's resolution through to the emulated machine or let you set a size for an emulated monitor, you'll have to set it in xorg.conf.

This chip is not yet fully supported by Xorg (although support is coming along). You can use either the xf86-video-radeonhd or the xf86-video-ati drivers from the ports collection. It should work fine for 2D (radeonhd should have some 2D hardware accelleration), but not hardware accellerated 3D yet AFAIK. Among other things, the kernel component needed for that needs updating.

RE: Video Driver
I tried Ctrl+Alt+Keypad-Plus- but it didn't switch it to a higher, just zoomed in and out. I don't have an xorg.conf anywhere in my filesystem. Is that a problem?

This is an interactive program to help you in building an xorg.conf file. It is important to have as much data as possible about your monitor (and graphics card) ready, since it apparently cannot communicate with the graphics card. At minimum you should know the horizontal and vertical refresh frequencies. If X is already running you could try xorgcfg instead.

Video Driver
I'm kind of new to freebsd. I'm using Gnome, and the resolution doesn't go above 600x800. I assume that is because it doesn't have the exact driver for my video card. I have an Intel motherboard, and when I looked it up on Intel's site, they didn't have any FreeBSD drivers for my motherboard, only RedHat and SuSE. Is there something I can do to got my resolution to increase? Thanks.

I would generally advise to avoid binary only drivers, because if you upgrade your system and the driver stops working you're screwed. Instead buy from people who give out enough specs to let the Xorg hackers write open source drivers. Study your /etc/X11/xorg.conf and read the manual page: 'man xorg.conf'. If you want more specific advice, post your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file and the /var/log/Xorg.0.log.

Re: Video Driver - Rage Pro Help
The IBM aptiva machines used a modified ati chipset. Some models do not work properly with x11, os/2 warp (ironically), and other non-windows environments. There is a rage driver present with x11 that might work. On Mon, 2 Aug 2004, Bruce wrote: I have an old IBM Aptiva with a Rage Pro video card. What video driver do I use for this card?
