I just have installed PcBSD 8.2 on my Acer Aspire 4738Z notebook (http://support.acer.com/acerpanam/notebook/2010/Acer/Aspire/Aspire4738Z/Aspire4738Zsp2.shtml). It has onboard intel graphics card. But intel 3d graphics is not working (except vesa no driver is working). So no 16:9 resolution.

Here is the output of dmesg:

So how to enable 3d graphics now?

P.S: I have similar issue on my desktop previously with 8.0, (http://forums.pcbsd.org/showthread.php?t=12647), but 3d graphics works perfectly now on my desktop without any compiling on 8.2. Anyway, this notebook is new. So someone give me a hint, how to start.

The intel driver in 8.2 isn't compatible with a lot of the latest Intel
video cards. Work is ongoing to try and make this happen for 9 though:
