Do you have/need/want to use lumina? Would another DE or WM work for you
instead? Would you be willing to try o more common DE (e.g. xfce, KDE,
gnome) or WM (i3, awesome, blackbox, openbox)? That way you may identify
whether your problem is related to xorg versus lumina perhaps.

Based on this, I suspect that bare xorg is working and lumina is failing
to launch. I found the following link on a google search, which I hope
may help:
https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/install-lumina-desktop-on-freebsd.59304

Good luck, and keeps us in the loop please :).
