I only had 800*600 resolution when I installed xorg and openbox. I did some digging and I found out for Intel Corporation Xeon E3-1200 v2/3rd Gen Core processor DRAM Controller I have to active it. so I added this to my /etc/make.conf WITH_NEW_XORG=true WITH_KMS=true and update my base system and also portmaster -af to update all my packages. That update worked; **but now every time I am trying to do startxor X -configure , my monitor goes black and and its power light start blinking like it is on standby. further investigation showed this black screen happens whenever I do kldload i915kms. Now i am out of idea and options. Thank you
