Bugzilla Automation <bugzilla@FreeBSD.org> has asked freebsd-x11 (Nobody) <x11@FreeBSD.org> for maintainer-feedback: Bug 273369: x11-servers/xorg-server: "Cannot run in framebuffer mode" after updating to 21.1.8_4,1 https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=273369 --- Description --- After updating all packages on an existing (working) 13-stable system, startx fails with "Cannot run in framebuffer mode. Please specify busIDs for all framebuffer devices". Rolling back just xorg-server to the previous installed version (21.1.8,1) from /var/cache/pkg fixes the problem. I'm not absolutely certain, but I suspect https://reviews.freebsd.org/D39886 may be the culprit, as it appears to be the only non-trivial changes that could affect my (amdgpu) configuration between the working and failing xorg-server versions. Attaching dmesg and Xorg.0.log for the working and failing cases.
