I have an Acer Aspire E15 running FreeBSD 15.1-RELEASE. I tried to get the correct graphics driver installed by first installing the drm-kmod metapackage and, when loading amdgpu or radeonkms from that resulted in a kernel panic, tried drm-515-kmod (via pkg) and later built graphics/drm-612-kmod from ports. All of these resulted in a kernel panic, black screen, or a combination of the two except if I load amdgpu.ko from graphics/drm-612-kmod which only hangs but doesn't panic with the following output:
After this, I am forced to hard reset the system. I can ssh in as my user but not run any commands.
This laptop has an AMD E2-6110 APU and it is from the era between radeonkms and amdgpu so I am not sure what to use for it. Since radeonkms.ko still causes a kernel panic even after I've built and installed drm-612-kmod but amdgpu.ko doesn't, I am thinking amdgpu.ko is the right driver, though why its being so difficult I don't know.
Edit: I have also built and installed drm-66-kmod from source and this has the same result as the binary version; kldload amdgpu causes a kernel panic.
Here are some maybe helpful information about the system and the port:
I also have all of the AMD/Radeon GPU firmware as far as I know. I can't paste the entire list because it reaches the size limit.
