Hello to everyone.
I'm a new net-bsd user. I'm learning and trying this OS. The first step is to correctly configure the resolution of my screen. On my PC I have 3 graphic cards :
1) 000:02:0: Intel UHD Graphics 630 (VGA display, revision 0x02)
2) 001:00:0: NVIDIA product 1e04 (VGA display, revision 0xa1) : (NVIDIA RTX 2080ti)
3) 002:00:0: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 3GB (VGA display, revision 0xa1)
On the BIOS I have configured the Intel UHD Graphics 630 as the primary GPU device and my screen is attached to the HDMI port of that GPU. The problem that
I have is that I'm not able to use the intel driver,instead of the nouveau.
Below u can see all the hardware specs of my PC :

Uninstalled modular-xorg and xf86-video-intel--Just use what's in the base install.
Re-created the DRM devices. As root:
cd /dev
sh ./MAKEDEV drm0 drm1 drm2Edited /boot.cfg and disabled the nouveau drivers by adding this line:
userconf=disable nouveau*Rebooted.
Below you can see my config. files :
nano /boot.cfg
menu=Boot normally:rndseed /var/db/entropy-file;gop 4;boot
menu=Boot single user:rndseed /var/db/entropy-file;boot -s
menu=Drop to boot prompt:prompt
userconf=disable nouveau*
default=1
timeout=5
clear=1
Below u can see the most relevant packages (among others,for the graphic part) that I have installed :
netbsd-marietto# pkgin list
intel-microcode-netbsd-20210608 Firmware updates for Intel x86 processors
intel-vaapi-driver-2.4.0 VA-API user mode driver for Intel GEN Graphics family
modular-xorg-fonts-1.1 Modular Xorg font meta-package
wayland-1.18.0nb3 Display server protocol - development libraries
wayland-protocols-1.20 Additional wayland functionality
x11-links-1.34 Shadow tree of links to native X11 headers and libraries
and I've created the file wsfb.conf that I have placed it into the folder /etc/X11/
Section "Device"
Identifier "Card0"
Driver "intel"
EndSection
When I reboot the PC I do :
netbsd-marietto# dmesg | grep intel
netbsd-marietto#
It seems that it ignores the file wsfb.conf located in /etc/X11 and since I haven't any xorg.conf in /etc/X11/, xorg starts because it gets the default values. I've also tried to create a xorg.conf file like this :
