Hello!

I did boot the BE with the nvidia 515 driver into single mode and did a 
pkg update && init 6.

Xorg works and i gt the login screen from lightdm, GLX is used from NVIDIA:

[   394.470] (II) LoadModule: "glx"
[   394.471] (II) Loading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/amd64/libglx.so
[   394.501] (II) Module glx: vendor="NVIDIA Corporation"
[   394.501] (II) NVIDIA GLX Module  515.76  Mon Sep 12 19:15:55 UTC 2022
[   396.450] (II) Initializing extension GLX
[   396.450] (II) Indirect GLX disabled.

When i login, X closes, and i get really strange things on the appearing 
text console when i type on my (usb) keyboard

So the first thing is solved and i now have a different problem.

When i find time i will investigate that further, its reproducable..

Thanks all for your help,

Stephan
