intel

  • 2024/12/01: Last tested on FreeBSD 14.2 (Xfce) with Intel UHD 630
  • :!: Xfce compositor exhibits laggy window dragging when specifically using intel vs modesetting (input latency is lower with compositor disabled on both drivers)
  • :!: intel DDX likely causes Xfce to crash back to tty if 2009Scape is fullscreen and Xfce screensaver starts
