Did read the GitHub thread and with the hints I fixed my machine. Still I am surprised that this situation happened.. luckily I did not update my client machines ;-) Rebuilding latest graphics/drm-fbsd12.0-kmod DID SOLVE the problem for 12.1-RELEASE :-) # portsnap fetch update # cd /usr/ports/graphics/drm-fbsd12.0-kmod # make deinstall # make clean # make install Also make sure that rc.conf contains: kld_list="/boot/modules/drm.ko /boot/modules/i915kms.ko" Using the "default" drm.ko and i915.ko does not provide acceleration. Why are they bundled then? Also note that packages provided by PKG will not solve the problem because they are built on 12.0 and 12.1 allows loading them leading to crash (and there was some kernel API change between 12.0 and 12.1). Thank you! :-) Tomek -- CeDeROM, SQ7MHZ, http://www.tomek.cedro.info
