Justine Smithies on Nostr: Just an FYI to any #Wayland users in the #FreeBSD community using the latest 14.0 ...
Just an FYI to any #Wayland users in the #FreeBSD community using the latest 14.0 release with an i915 ( i915kms). I could not get the driver to load and therefore the likes of #Sway and other Wayland WM's would start. But I decided to try replace drm-515-kmod with drm-510-kmod and the driver successfully loads allowing Wayland WM's to start. Possibly a bug in the 515 package somewhere ?
