Hi Mathias, I have updated the wiki to reflect that you can now use the default 12-CURRENT upstream pkg repository with the drm-next system. After recent upgrades to Xorg and other libraries everything pretty much "just works". On my systems, I do not even require an xorg.conf and things work great. This config defaults to the "modesetting" xorg driver, which is where most of the upstream dev effort is happening. You can still install the xf86-video-intel driver as well, I test both drivers on my end and they both seem reasonably stable for daily use.
