Description Marek Zarychta 2023-12-03 12:11:29 UTC 
After upgrading FreeBSD from 13.1-RELEASE to 14.0-RELEASE to run Xorg one has to remove all but one graphics cards from the workstation. Multiple cards are not supported.
  
Error: 
[    36.729] (WW) VGA arbiter: cannot open kernel arbiter, no multi-card support
[    36.729] (EE) 
Fatal server error

Packages:
drm-515-kmod-5.15.118_2
xorg-7.7_3

system: 
14.0-RELEASE

Missing kernel arbiter doesn't seem to be fatal on 13.2
Comment 3 Marek Zarychta 2023-12-03 17:41:28 UTC 
I can reproduce it on FreeBSD 13.2 using the most recent X.Org X Server 1.21.1.9 which is the culprit.
Comment 4 Marek Zarychta 2023-12-03 17:57:01 UTC 
It turned out, that the server was using scfb instead of intel as a driver. Now scfb cannot be used so I switched to the appropriate driver as it should have been done long time ago:

$cat /usr/local/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/driver-intel.conf 
Section "Device"
    Identifier "Card0"
    Driver     "intel"
    BusID    "PCI:0:2:0"
EndSection
