Bug 250826: x11/xorg incorrect autogenerated xorg.conf
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=250826



--- Description ---
12.2-RELEASE, GENERIC kernel, stock X, Dell Latitude E6410.

I ran Xorg -configure to get a configuration.  X would not start with that
configuration, muttering something about "open /dev/dri/card0: No such file or
directory".  (Config and log attached. The log came from a different kernel,
which has more VTs, but is essentially the same as the GENERIC log.)

I changed the Driver line in the Device section from "modesetting" to "vesa"
and X started.	(It still didn't work properly, failing to handle my keyboard
correctly.  I had to tell it to not auto-detect devices.  But that's for my
next bug report.)
