Hello All,

I just reinstall a new FreeBSD 12.1-RELEASE (my freebsd-update failed :-( (but it
was my fault).

I tried to go on graphical and install Xorg with drm-kmod-g21091030 (pkg install
drm-kmod).

Before change /etc/rc.conf, I tried to load the module

# kldload /boot/modules/i915kms.ko

BOOM violent reboot. No message, nothing just a reboot.

I install src with the brand new install.

I run FreeBSD on a lenovo x280, core i7- 8th generation (i7-8550U Kaby Lake R).
I previously make a install of 12.0-RELEASE and made a tutorial about that
(https://adminblog.foucry.net/post/inof/freebsd-thinkpad/)

It used to work with 12.0-RELEASEp10 (and before)

I try to build a new kernal (with no change from generic) install it but the
result was the same.

What do you want to have more to help me?


Thanks for your help.
