===== Graphics: Known Issues =====

  * Permission errors, or inability to start X when using the DRM kernel modules?
    * Make sure your user is a member of the ''%%video%%'' group, otherwise you will not have access to ''%%/dev/drm/%%'' devices:
      * ''%%# pw groupmod video -m <youruser>%%''

  * ''%%Xorg -configure%%'' crashes with a "Segmentation fault":
    * Do not use ''%%Xorg -configure%%'' anymore: it is recommended to let Xorg auto-configure itself.
    * If you need to override part of the configuration, create a config file under ''%%/usr/local/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/%%'' containing only the relevant section.

  * There are reports that users on ''%%i386%%'' hardware have problems using the ''%%drm-kmod%%'' package.
    * A workaround for this is to disable PAE in ''%%/boot/loader.conf%%'': ''%%hw.above4g_allow=0%%''

  * Support for ''%%aarch64%%'' and ''%%powerpc*%%'' are works-in-progress.
