            Bug ID: 210542
           Summary: x11/xorg: Better documentation regarding 3D
                    acceleration
           Product: Ports & Packages

There are two issues:


1. It's not very obvious that users need to add themselves to the "video" g=
roup
for 3D acceleration to work.

2. The documentation states that users can add themselves to either the "vi=
deo"
or "wheel" group. In my case, I was already part of the wheel group, and I
needed to specifically add myself to the video group to enable 3D accelerat=
ion
(i915 on FreeBSD-11 CURRENT).


If it's not a bug that users need to specifically be part of the video grou=
p,
then I think we need to enable 3D acceleration for anyone in the wheel grou=
p as
well.
