Photo of screen after kernel panic

I tried "startx" while at the computer, took photo of screen after kernel
panic, see jpg-image.

Before this trial I removed all xorg.conf files and contents of xorg.confd,
according to FreeBSD handbook.

/etc/X11/
/etc/X11/xorg.confd
/usr/local/etc/X11/
/usr/local/etc/X11/xorg.confd
/usr/local/share/X11/
/usr/local/share/X11/xorg.confd
No valid files in these folders.

As normal user:
> startx
Screen goes black, short flash of random patterns at lower quarter of screen,
then kernel panic,
takes about two seconds.

Background on how I upgrade FreeBSD, I use freebsd-update, first I check that
current version is fully updated.
Then:
> freebsd-update -r 12.1 upgrade
> /usr/sbin/freebsd-update install
Reboot
Again:
> /usr/sbin/freebsd-update install

After that I remove all packages and clear /var/cache/pkg
Then I install all packages I need using pkg install XXXX.
I never try to compile any port, I have had really bad experiences of this in
the past.

Any help is really appreciated.
Best wishes
Anders
