X does not start - failed to open DRM

Hi,

I have a fresh install of freebsdFreeBSD 10.2 and a AMD Radeon HD 8180 card in it (laptop AsusX102B).
When I run startx, it does not start and I see this in the Xorg.log:

What is wrong? All installed on the handbook.
 
I'm not sure any radeon(4) chipsets are supported. I just spent 2 entire days building, and
installing on 12-CURRENT with todays svn(1) checkout, and altho X() clams to support it.
These are my results:

Note the KAVERI listed above, as supported, and the fail on KAVERI, later?
The FreeBSD Graphics wiki, is also lagging a bit. The radeon(4) man page also indicates support for
my chip (KAVERI) version. But Xorg is still seems a lost cause. :(
