Hi, my AMD based Laptop has the same HD3200.
Yes, performance is quite terrible.
But in your case I suspect it to be even worse, than necessary,
because of the attempts to open the drm device.

Please rename if it helps to rename

/usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/amd64/libdri.so to
/usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/amd64/libdri.so__ORIG

/usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/amd64/libdri2.so to
/usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/amd64/libdri2.so__ORIG


and

/usr/lib/xorg/amd64/libdrm.so.2 to /usr/lib/xorg/amd64/libdrm.so.2__ORIG


(you may temporarily yield the same effect without renaming anything, by doing:


$ pfexec mount -O -F lofs /bin/ls
/usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/amd64/libdri.so
$ pfexec mount -O -F lofs /bin/ls
/usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/amd64/libdri2.so
$ pfexec mount -O -F lofs /bin/ls /usr/lib/xorg/amd64/libdrm.so.2 to
/usr/lib/xorg/amd64/libdrm.so.2__ORIG

and restarting X11 via


$ pfexec svcadm restard gdm


Then report back.


Q: How to create xorg.conf  ??

A: shut down X11 ($ pfexec svcadm disable gdm ) or boot into single user
Then run Xorg -configure

This creates ~/xorg.conf.new

Check it and copy if over to /etc/X11/xorg.conf

Warning: Do not simply test it via the recommended Xorg -config
~/xorg.conf.new , because the old Ctlr+Alt_Backspace key sequence by
default no longer kills the server (although it is possible configure
this to behave in the old manner, without recompiling).
