Does it work on NomadBSD?

I am not using NomadBSD, but it is normal on ghost bsd.

Please retry with the latest ISO build.

No, the bug is still there.

Please compare which drivers and kernel modules are loaded.
I don't have this hardware so I can only improve if you can tell me what to change.

Also, we are using initgfx from NomadBSD, so it is always a good idea to also test there.

Thanks!

Where can I see drivers and kernel modules are loaded?

I tried NomadBSD and it was very laggy, but the screen was normal.
Supplement: There will be a short Grable screen.

Please see https://hellosystem.github.io/docs/developer/graphics.html

cat /usr/local/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/00-video-initgfx.conf shows which Xorg driver was selected by initgfx.

kldstat shows you the loaded kernel modules (please don't post all of them, just the GPU driver).

If you can submit a Hardware Probe from

  • helloSystem
  • GhostBSD
  • NomadBSD

from the same machine, that will already help. It contains this information.

So what exactly do I need to change? I can only implement the change once you have confirmed on your machine that the suggested fix works.
