So that the user can install and run Xorg easily without having to deal with the installation and the configuration. I need this information for correct autodetection and autoconfiguration. The thread is about collecting exact information which GPUs work with which FreeBSD versions' drm-kmod. Please guys, please understand that this thread is not about worries of obsolete hardware. I have updated the table, added introduction years and CPU generation. My main interest to get these questions clarified is to make sure that the postinstaller does the correct installation, and if some hardware is not supported, also detects this and informs the user accordingly. I can also use my Thinkpad with Linux if necessary. If KMS support for this hardware is dropped, this potentially could mean that the affected hardware can no longer be used with FreeBSDĪs a Nvidia user, personally do not care much about Intel or AMD support.

What now particularly worries me is that from what I read, apparently some xf86-video-something drivers do no longer work in user mode, only in KMS mode. Sadly I have not yet found any information whether possibly (and hopefully) the plan to drop support for legacy GPU hardware might have been abandoned, leading to dropping drm-legacy-kmod. This drm-legacy-kmod module has been removed very recently. Now I heavily regret not having bookmarked these pages when I was sifting through countless pages to collect information for the compatibility matrix table. I have found several similar references to the removal of support for hardware older than Haswell, for example in notes on. Please let me again emphasize that, for the autodetect/autoconfiguration script, I need data as correct and exact as possible. I already have been accused of spreading misinformation. I really would appreciate to learn why that is deemed necessary. Sadly I have not yet managed to find any text about the reasons. Learning of the plan to drop support for most to all Intel-GPU-based laptops and desktops that are older than circa 7 years was a hefty surprise to me, too. But I recently learned that I need to add functionality that tells the user which FreeBSD version can be used, if hs FreeBSD version does either not yet or no longer support a particular GPU.

I initially assumed that this would not be necessary. This might make things even easier, as the CPU generation is easy to determine:ītw, the autodetecting/autoconfiguring postinstaller I am working on will tell the user the exact GPU information, including its generation. I am also considering to add another row, which displays the respective CPU generation, as it is important not to confuse CPU and GPU generations.

I'll update the table in post #1 today or tomorrow to include the introduction year of each GPU. The source links below are not listed above, as they affect all:īig thanks to all people who contributed by confirming particular GPU/OS combinations' working or not working!

For GPU generations 4-6 to work on 12.2, according to this thread, it seems necessary to first deinstall graphics/drm-kmod, then explicitly install graphics/drm-fbsd12.0-kmod (needs still to be verified whether this is really necessary when doing fresh install).

The "Code" row shows the code string parts from which you can recognize and associate the #defined constants and macros used in the xf86-video-intel sources.

The items are ordered only by GPU generation, but not ordered inside-generation.

The chronological order is only roughly exact.

All entries which contain a question mark have no confirmation source in the "Sources" row yet, and thus might be incorrect.
