Setting single graphical card in BIOS only an Intel HD 4000 onboard chipset is available. I've managed to install FreeBSD-10.0r.to an external usb3 hdd. It is doing a very nice job, even a beautiful Mate desktop is achieved. But, when I want to fall back to console from desktop I am left with a blank screen that practically stays for ever. From that very moment I could intervene only from a neighbouring box of my home network. So I got suspicuous and one day later I installed a PCBSD-10.0 to that hdd, but unfortunately experienced the same result. My question, did anyone of you manage to install FreeBSD-10.0 to that type of laptop with success? I am interested in a solution, in a workaround... Any help would be highly appreciated. Some additional information, amd64, .xinitrc/startx used.
