Bugzilla Automation <bugzilla@FreeBSD.org> has asked freebsd-x11 (Nobody) <x11@FreeBSD.org> for maintainer-feedback: Bug 282549: graphics/drm-kmod or graphics/drm-61-kmod https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=282549 --- Description --- I am a bit out of my depth here, but this may be a bug in the drm-kmod system according to what I have been told. I am running FreeBSD 14.2-STABLE on a T16 ThinkPad. Prior to upgrading to 14.2-STABLE this problem did not exist, but since then I have upgraded my ports and that may be the reason. Upon power up normally boot messages by the dozens scroll across the laptop's LCD screen. After the O/S upgrade (and many ports also upgraded) the laptop's screen is blank -- no "login:" prompt, no final boot time messages. It was suggested to me to try making a change to my /etc/rc.conf file. This change was to comment out this line: kld_list="amdgpu" Then after rebooting the laptop, the boot screen was again "normal". I don't know how this change worked, or if it pertains to the drm-kmod sub-system, but the person who suggested this change also suggested that if it worked, and it did work, that I should submit a bug report, which I am now doing. Thanks. .
