A quick overview of my machine before we begin:
Manufacturer/Model: Acer Predator Orion 3000 (model no. PO3-650-UB91)
OS/Distro: FreeBSD 14.3 with latest repositories using KDE Plasma 6.4.1, X11, and SDDM
CPU: Intel Core i5-13400F (no iGPU)
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060
RAM: 16GB DDR5 SDRAM
Monitor: SANSUI 24 inch Gaming Monitor 180Hz
GPU ports layout from left to right (it’s weird):
- DisplayPort
- DisplayPort
- HDMI
- DisplayPort
One more piece of information that might be useful is that the Nouveau driver on Linux 6.15 latest stable works flawlessly with HDMI and DisplayPort. However, the FreeBSD-recommended nvidia-modeset driver only works flawlessly with DisplayPort, all the DisplayPort ports on the machine, plugging in the monitor through HDMI still boots FreeBSD and starts the X server but the monitor display no signal. I’ve tried using nvidia-xconfig with the nvidia-modeset driver on FreeBSD and only had success with DisplayPort. Also, nvidia-smi shows same results when using HDMI (black screen, but using tty) and DisplayPort (using KDE Konsole, X server). The attached bug reports are according to the port used to connect the machine to the monitor, _dp prefixed zip is for DisplayPort output and _hdmi is for HDMI output. For the record, the driver version is 575.64 from FreshPorts nvidia-driver-devel package for FreeBSD 14.3 latest. I’ve had this issue on Linux with nvidia official driver, too, version 570. I really hope somebody could help me with this issue.
