 Xenocara should run smoothly with fully free software drivers. The exceptions to this rule are recent GPUs (especially NVIDIA and AMD GPUs), that are not supported. If it is the case, use the default Xenocara driver which includes GLAMOR acceleration (see [[https://man.openbsd.org/OpenBSD-6.5/modesetting.4|modesetting(4)]]). Xenocara should run smoothly with fully free software drivers.
