Bug 245800: x11-servers/xorg-server
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=245800



--- Description ---
Hardware: Lenovo Thinkpad X230 (Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-3520M CPU @ 2.90GHz)
	  Lenovo Thinkpad T430 (Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-3320M CPU @ 2.60GHz)
OS: FreeBSD 12.1p3 amd64.

First of all I am not sure whether the issue is actually the xorg-server or
with one of the other packages I downgraded.

Issue. After upgrading pkg's with pkg upgrade X froze upon startup. When I say
froze I mean X does not respond to any keyboard or mouse input - not even
Ctrl+Alt+F1 which normally brings you back to the console.
I use startx (xinit).

The power button works and I can ssh into the laptop (so only X is frozen).

I had to downgrade several packages to make X work again.
I downgraded the following:

xorg-server-1.18.4_13,1.txz
xf86-video-intel-2.99.917.20181203.txz
libunwind-20170615.txz
libepoxy-1.5.2.txz
xkbcomp-1.4.2.txz
xkeyboard-config-2.27.txz
xf86-video-intel-2.99.917.20181203.txz
xf86-input-keyboard-1.9.0_3.txz
xf86-input-mouse-1.9.3_2.txz
gpu-firmware-kmod-g20191015
drm-fbsd12.0-kmod-4.16.g20191120

The last pkg's I downgraded were the input drivers and before those the
firmware+kmod+video-intel. Just before I downgraded the input drivers I could
use Ctrl+Alt+F1 to get back to the console. After downgrading the input drivers
I got keyboard and mouse control back.

To make sure this was not some weird issue with pkg upgrade I installed a fresh
version of FreeBSD-12.1p3 and latest packages. Same issue. I also tested
without the xf86-video-intel driver installed. Same issue.


Please note it seems I am not always getting any emails from the FreeBSD
bugzilla :(
I will try and check back for updates.
