00:01what's up everybody please subscribe like share and comment we are not so far from 1000 subscriber
00:07which i wish we reach before the end of this year i got a new computer mr musa helped me
00:15with it thank you very much mr musa for this jazakallahu khaira shout out to you i installed
00:23free psd on it i was intending to play around a little with the psds so here i start serious
00:33about
00:34them and i started with free psd the first thing that i noticed is the absence of hardware rendering
00:43gpu rendering for the graphics it's still software rendering i will show you some footage from the
00:52actual desktop environment that i installed which is gnome
01:42i have an ssh connection here to the machine since i still do not have a vnc server installed on
01:51it
01:51we may do it in a future video you can see that it says here welcome to free psd we
01:58will prove that
01:59the drivers are not installed and the kernel modules were not loaded the first command that we can run
02:08to prove such thing is this command in my case it's i915 the kernel modules that is associated
02:16with the drivers of intel integrated gpu i run this command in a failing attempt to make this video i
02:25got no output
02:26which means the module is not loaded we can also run a similar command but like this
02:41we can also follow this command is not fully installed on this module this command and we get this output
02:43this
02:43which means that it doesn't find this module the procedure is the same between the different GPU manufacturers
02:53the only thing that differs is the kernel module that's gonna be loaded if we wanted check if the other
03:02one the other one the other manufacturers' GPU driver's kernel
03:07module is loaded we can try with this later I will show you where things change to load
03:16the different one the different kernel module so we switch to root by running su password
03:26and then we run pkg install drm-kmod this will install all of them in one set of packages
03:53and you can see we got so many of them like amd
04:09intel here radeon and whatnot here we press y and enter and that should install them for us
04:18I said that the other manufacturers excluding nvidia I should have told about this and I tried
04:25with amd gpu but I should have also told that for checking whether radeon's kernel module is loaded
04:35you can try that same command which is kldstat dash m radeon kms like this so we have three options
04:52and we can see that it says no search file or directory the command that I'm gonna run now is
05:00the same for all the three types of gpus amd radeon and intel except that the variable or there is
05:14some
05:16field field that needs to change so it is sysrc space kld underscore list
05:32plus equals and here you type the one that matches with your gpu if it is amd
05:42i believe that's the newer type of amd since before amd acquired ati it was radeon and it is still
05:54radeon but it has become rebranded to amd if it is amd the newer ones it becomes your amd gpu
06:03if it is radeon if it is radeon probably the older ones it should be radeon kms and if it
06:12is intel it
06:15should be i915 kms like this all right i believe there is a file that changes accordingly
06:30under slash etc slash rc dot conf if i'm not mistaken
06:38yes so if you don't want to run that command and you want to change
06:42it is probably an alternative method if and if you want to change the configuration file which is
06:49is slash etc slash rc dot conf you can add a line to it and it should be kld under
07:00underscore list
07:01equals and then the syntax is like this and it's either amd gpu radeon kms or i915 kms
07:12we can reboot the system to see the changes take an effect the system is rebooted let's
07:24check the results
07:31kms
07:33yes yes here it is and i will keep you with some footage where i change the resolution to the
07:40one
07:41that's optimal for my lcd as well as showing you that the graphics has changed to my actual gpu
07:52i'm signing out and peace
