I had read https://www.freebsd.org/releases/12.0R/relnotes.html#hardware-graphics and https://wiki.freebsd.org/Graphics before I started. I had 4 old laptops and 1 vmawre and I didn't remember which machine uses which CPU :) If the doc can mention to check kldstat output and go to corresponding section, that will make steps easier. I converted to the port based driver for 4 psychical machines and 1 vmware machine (although vmware do not use neither of driver.) All of them run 12.0-RELEASE. All of them start X and work fine. I will likely get to 13-CURRENT a lot later as I ran 13-CURRENT without X and in vmware most of times. Hiro
